About
From Club Sandwich N°36, 1985:
The ‘Ebony and Ivory’ sleeve features the lyrics in Paul’s handwriting. Second track on the B-side is the A-side with McCartney vocals only: it would have been a classic in this form too, even without Stevie’s dream topping. ‘Rainclouds’ is great down-home stuff with mandolin and fiddle.
