"Tentative shavings from things we already own": Why the 50th anniversary edition of Band On The Run isn't essential, even if the original album is

“This is Band On The Run in a way you’ve never heard before,” says Paul, accurately. And it’s true that nobody at the time thought, you know what would be good?
