‘Flowers In The Dirt’ er McCartneys næste arkivudgivelse

af Karsten Jørgensen

Albummet ”Flowers In The Dirt” fra 1989, der sædvanligvis betragtes som en slags comeback for Paul McCartney efter nogle mindre oplagte udgivelser i midt-1980’erne, bliver genudgivet den 24. marts 2017 som en del af McCartneys såkaldte ”arkiv”-serie.

Deluxe-udgaven af “Flowers In The Dirt”

”Flowers In The Dirt” er bl.a. kendt for et frugtbart samarbejde med Elvis Costello, som var medkomponist til fire af albummets sange, både singlen ”My Brave Face” samt ”You Want Her Too”, ”Don’t Be Careless Love” og ”That Day Is Done”. Samtidig var albummet også startskuddet for, at Paul McCartney begyndte at turnere regelmæssigt igen, for første gang siden den sidste turne med Wings i 1979.

Arkivudgivelsen, som er den første efter McCartney i august skiftede pladeselskab fra Hear Music til Capitol, udkommer i flere forskellige formater – både som dobbelt-album på vinyl, som dobbelt-cd og endelig i en deluxe-udgave med 3 cd’er, plus en dvd samt fire bøger/hæfter. Dertil kommer 16 sange, og det har allerede været genstand for en del kritik fra hardcore-fans, der kun udkommer som digitale downloads, bl.a. B-sider fra singler og cassette-demoer.

På internetsiden Super Deluxe Edition modtog de indenfor 24 timer efter annonceringen af genudgivelsen mere end 160 mails fra vrede fans, der med en vis logik hævder, at folk som investerer i dyre deluxe-udgaver gør det, for at have alt materialet i fysisk form – ikke som digital download. En af dem, Ollie, skriver: ”Jeg kan ikke se en mening med at købe et deluxe CD-bokssæt, hvor en væsentlig del af indholdet slet ikke er inkluderet på de fysiske cd’er”.
