[Notes]
Paul McCartney must not only have been conscious of his slipping commercial
fortunes, he must have realized that his records hadn't been treated
seriously for years, so he decided to make a full-fledged comeback effort
with Flowers in the Dirt. His most significant move was to write a series of
songs with Elvis Costello, some of which appeared on Costello's own Spike
and many of which surfaced here. These may not be epochal songs, the way
many wished them to be, but McCartney and Costello turn out to be successful
collaborators, spurring each other toward interesting work. And, in
McCartney's case, that carried over to the album as a whole, as he aimed for
more ambitious lyrics, themes, sounds, and productions for Flowers in the
Dirt. This didn't necessarily result in a more successful album than its
predecessors, but it had more heart, ambition, and nerve, which was
certainly welcome. And the moments that did work were pretty terrific. Many
of these were McCartney/McManus collaborations, from the moderate hit "My
Brave Face" to the duet "You Want Her Too" and "That Day Is Done," but
McCartney also demonstrates considerable muscle on his own, from the
domestic journal "We Got Married" to the lovely "This One." This increased
ambition also means McCartney meanders a bit, writing songs that are more
notable for what they try to achieve than what they do, and at times the
production is too fussy and inextricably tied to its time, but as a
self-styled comeback affair, Flowers in the Dirt works very well.
[The 2017 Archive Edition of Flowers in the Dirt arrives in two editions: a
double-disc Special Edition and a Deluxe Edition that contains three CDs and
a DVD, along with a download card and a host of liner notes. Both editions
share the initial acoustic demos Paul McCartney recorded with Elvis
Costello, which is the centerpiece of the set. McCartney and Costello seem
to delight in each other's company as they rush through songs that would
show up on Flowers and Paul's Off the Ground, in addition to Elvis' Mighty
Like a Rose. A few of these never showed up on record and they're all
excellent, particularly "Tommy's Coming Home" and "Twenty Fine Fingers." On
the Super Deluxe Edition, these nine songs are given full-band renditions
and while these demos do feel somewhat under-produced, they have more snap
than the finished record. All the original B-sides -- including 12" mixes --
are available on the download card; some of the 12" mixes feel stilted and
silly, but the non-LP songs are solid, particularly "Back on My Feet." The
DVD is filled with music videos, but the highlight is an hourlong
documentary of the making of the album. All and all, it's the most lavish
Paul McCartney Archive Edition to date.]
