Notes

Press to Play at 35 is a new SDE-exclusive 32-page ‘keepsake’ booklet that features a satisfying ‘deep dive’ exploration of the album. It includes an exclusive, and very candid, interview with Hugh Padgham who goes into some detail about how he got the job and what it was like working with an artist of Paul McCartney’s stature. He also addresses the confusion over who was supposed to be co-producing the album: him or Eric Stewart!

It also features an in-depth 9,000 word review and track-by-track examination of Press to Play by SDE editor, Paul Sinclair, and an exclusive interview with John ‘Tokes’ Potoker, who remixed Pretty Little Head and non-album single Spies Like Us.

The booklet offers a stunning, newly commissioned front-cover illustration of Paul McCartney by US artist Brianna Ashby. Brianna also tackles Hugh Padgham inside the booklet which is further illustrated by product images from the era (from the author’s own collection) and period advertising of the various singles. The booklet is completed by a full Press to Play UK singles discography.

Press to Play at 35 is a limited edition of 1000 numbered copies which all come signed by SDE editor Paul Sinclair. For extra collectability, the first 500 out of those 1000 are also signed by Hugh Padgham.

The book went on sale on Wednesday 1 September 2021 (when the album was released in the UK in 1986) and started shipping on 6 September 2021.
