British musician Paul McCartney will release on May 29 a new album entitled ‘The boys of Dungeon Lane’, his eighteenth solo album, an album in which ex-Beatle, at 83, looks back to his childhood years.
The Universal label has issued a statement this Thursday in which it presents a link to reserve the album, offers the titles of the 14 songs that compose it and allows you to digitally listen to one of them, the ballad ‘Days We Left Behind’ (the days we left behind).
Paul’s more intimate side
The label says the songs will reveal “never-before-shared memories” and other snapshots of the boy Paul.
Long before he became famous with the Liverpool quartet.
He describes the fourteen tracks on this new album as being born of a Paul McCartney “in a sincere, vulnerable and deeply reflective mood, writing with unusual candor about his childhood.”
Dungeon Lane, which gives the album its title, is a street in Liverpool that Paul frequented when leaving or returning home.
With a bird book in his hands, in those years of his early childhood where he remembers “the bars full of smoke”, as the song says.

In a promotional statement for the new album, Paul McCartney, idealizing those years, says that his neighborhood was “pretty blue-collar.”
“We had nothing but it didn’t matter because all the people were great and you didn’t realize you didn’t have much.”
The musician began to work on this album five years ago, together with producer Andrew Watt, in a session to exchange ideas.
Then came recording sessions and recording sessions between Sussex (England and Los Angeles), with no time pressure or deadlines.
