The live performance saw McCartney re-team with musicians from the album. Without the famous Höfner bass in hand or any instruments, he used the same microphone that has captured some iconic voices in history.
Streamed live online, Live Kisses marked the launch of the Kisses On The Bottom album. The film tells the story of how, with the help of Grammy Award-winning producer Tommy LiPuma, Diana Krall and her band, they created a critically acclaimed album, which featured guest appearances from Eric Clapton and Stevie Wonder.
The record represents a personal journey through classic American compositions that a young McCartney first heard his father perform on piano at home. Upon its release, the album topped the U.S. Billboard Jazz album chart at No. 1 and charted top 5 around the world.
On the night, the all-star line up included musical director Diana Krall (piano) and John Pizzarelli (guitar), among others. Tommy LiPuma and Al Schmitt resumed their roles in the studio and special guest musicians were Abe Laboriel Jr (from McCartney's touring band) on backing vocals and Eagles guitarist Joe Walsh. Walsh performed the "My Valentine" guitar solo originally recorded by Eric Clapton on the studio album.
The
concert was performed just hours after McCartney was presented with a star on the Hollywood
Walk of Fame in front of the Capitol Records building. The night of the
concert (Feb. 9) was also the 48th anniversary of The Beatles' U.S. TV debut on The Ed Sullivan Show.
Bonus Live Kisses material includes six versions of the "My Valentine"
music video, directed by McCartney and starring Johnny Depp and Natalie
Portman as well as a Making My Valentine film.
There are also two short films with behind the scenes footage filmed at the Mary McCartney album photoshoot for Kisses On The Bottom. The final extra is an interview with Paul and producer LiPuma about the story of the album, its conception and creation.
