Introducing the 50th Anniversary Collector's Edition of Wings' masterpiece "Venus and Mars," a Paul McCartney-inspired album! This newly edited collection includes early alternate albums, session recordings, and multi-channel audio DVDs! Released in 1975 under the name Wings, "Venus and Mars" is acclaimed as a masterpiece showcasing Paul McCartney's true talent. Following the smash success of their previous album, "Band on the Run," this album represents Wings' heyday, as the band began full-scale operations with a new lineup and preparations for their first major US tour since the Beatles' breakup. Recorded primarily in New Orleans and Los Angeles, the lead single "I'm Not That Into You" reached number one in the US. The album also featured singles like "Wine-Coloured Girl (Letting Go)" and "Rock Show." This Anniversary Collector's Edition celebrates the 50th anniversary of the album's release, featuring a newly compiled collection of album-related audio and video, including previously unreleased rare recordings. CD 1 features a rough mix album from March 1975, before the album was completed, as well as early outtakes, all newly upgraded. While similar session recordings have been released in the past, this edition offers the highest quality yet. Some tracks are recorded from longer recordings than the previous versions, and the difference is clear when compared, providing a fascinating glimpse into the precious recording sessions. CD 2 features a stereo conversion of the now-discontinued DTS Surround CD, previously released in limited quantities in 1996 and 2001. This recording, previously known for its different mix from the standard version, has now been remastered in a new stereo edition. The second half of the album features unmissable demos and session recordings. The DVD features video and audio sections, and the video collection includes album-related promotional and live footage. This must-see video features the highest quality, high-definition remastering, updated in 2025, clearly distinguishing it from previously available versions. The audio DVD section includes the latest Atmos multi-channel and DTS surround sound in Dolby Stereo and 5.1 surround sound, respectively. While Atmos and DTS multi-channel sound sources require specialized equipment and playback environments, this DVD-Video allows for easy comparison of the sound differences. This special collector's edition, a 2-CD and 3-DVD set from the label, is a must-have for the 50th anniversary of the album "Venus and Mars." The CD includes the pre-finished rough mix album and early outtakes in newly upgraded audio. The DTS surround sound source, which differs from the standard mix, has also been newly remastered in stereo. The DVD video collection includes a collection of album-related video footage. The audio DVD section, featuring the best quality recordings of high-definition HD remasters, includes the latest Atmos multi-channel and DTS surround sound in Dolby stereo and 5.1 surround sound sources.
