You may remember the video for Michael Jackson and Paul McCartney's hit eighty song, "Say Say Say." In it, the singers act out the role of nineteenth century snake oil salesmen for the Mac and Jack potion, which will allegedly give you the strength of a raging bull.

The setup is such that a tiny Michael Jackson beats a lot stronger man in an arm wrestling contest, and then the song starts to play.

I saw that again a few weeks back, and it reminded me of the story of oil baron John D. Rockefeller Senior's father engaging in these tactics in upstate New York in the eighteen fifties.

This new version was released digitally with three unreleased songs, City Fox, One Night Stand, and Chelsea Boots, along with a remix called a flip mix for the song Home To Us, which of course includes Ringo Starr in a duet.
Ken MichaelsHOST
It's kind of the same thing that, that Paul released with, with Michael Jackson, with Say, Say, Say, where they, they flip the lead vocals, you know? Uh, interesting to hear.
Ken MichaelsHOST
And, um, there'll also be a physical release for the special edition coming out on vinyl, CD, and even cassette, which Paul said in a brief video.

All of which comes out December the 9th.
