Hear Paul McCartney's previously unreleased acoustic, instrumental jam 'Broomstick' with Steve Miller from his 'Flaming Pie' sessions
project in the mid-Nineties, and that spilled over into his 1997 album,will contain previously unreleased demos, outtakes, and rehearsal tapes, offering a holistic look at the LP.
One of the collection’s more interesting curios is “Broomstick,” a tune McCartney cut with Steve Miller, who played guitar on most of the album. It came out as a B side to“Young Boy” but has since drifted into obscurity. On the released version of “Broomstick,” McCartney sings, “As long as we’re together, it’s gonna be just fine/Well, I heard it on the broomstick, dashing through the middle of the night.” It’s a smooth, easy jam on which Miller plays a bluesy solo.
The previously unreleased version of “Broomstick” premiering here, which will not appear on the box set, is an all-acoustic instrumental jam that features just McCartney and Miller. As he did on both of hisalbums — on which he tracked the guitar, bass, and drums himself — McCartney handles most of the heavy lifting, while Miller plays guitar. This version also lacks the sound effects that closed out the more-familiar version.
