Sticking Out Of My Back Pocket: ‘Bip Bop’
The release of Paul’s Pure McCartney has unsurprisingly caused quite the stir. The
collection of 67 tracks - hand-picked personally by Paul - is not only a foray into a number
of diverse genres and a magnitude of grooves, jams, beats and melodies, but also a
glimpse inside an eclectic mind, carrying millions of us along with him on a musical
ourney spanning from his days as a solo artist, Wings member and Fireman
adventurer.

We’ve had the album on “rinse repeat” here at PaulMcCartney.com HQ, and whilst we are
united as a department through our love and familiarity for many of the recordings, which
require no introduction, it also became apparent that there are a handful of tracks that are
being re-discovered by the team.

So we decided it would be a good time to create a brand new PaulMcCartney.com feature,
which we’ve called ‘Sticking Out Of My Back Pocket’ (ten points to Gryffindor if you can
name the song that lyric is taken from...) Each article will highlight a “deep cut” song that
hasn’t been performed live in the recent past and that we feel has just been casually hanging
out of Paul’s back pocket!

The first track, ‘Bip Bop’ - composed by Paul and Linda McCartney - is taken from the 1971
Wings debut, Wild Life.
