Composer on the singled is credited to “Mr and Mrs McCartney.”
A spokesman for McCartney told the MM this week that a second McCartney solo album was expected soon. We don’t know whether ‘Another Day’ is a track from the album or not, and we don’t know what the B side will be”, he said.
He is to tape a television special for American TV in California in March, with the same musicians who worked with him on his new album.

McCartney is expected back in London this week from the States. […]
