DVD-Video featuring some very rare footage: the rehearsals for the Paul 
McCartney set at the Prince's Trust 10th Anniversay Birthday concert, 
one day before the actual concert on 20th June 1986.

In 1986, Paul McCartney joined Mark Knopfler, John Illsley, Elton John, 
Eric Clapton, Tina Turner, Phil Collins, Paul Young and others at the 
Prince's Trust 10th Anniversary Birthday Concert.

The story goes, according to Paul, that when he was getting ready to 
prepare for the event, he thought he'd have to rearrange some things 
and possibly sing "Long Tall Sally" in the key of F not G. When he 
arrived for rehearsals, he didn't dare tell the blokes to play it a 
full-step lower. He toughed it out and gave a raucous rendition of 
"Long Tall Sally" and "I Saw Her Standing There" in their original 
key - the same as when he was a mop-top.

But now the story takes a little twist. "Get Back" - with incredible 
energy added from Tina Turner - was performed in the key of G and not A - 
a full-step lower. Did Paul ask that the song be played a full-step lower 
because of his voice? Or, did he fear ridicule from his peers for having 
to play two songs in lower keys and went ahead and gave it everything 
singing "Long Tall Sally?" We may never know the answer to that question - 
and who cares anyway! Paul is having fun and it's great footage to watch.

Also very nice to see is that Mark Knopfler is on stage all the time and 
also plays some small solo's here and there. Filmed by somebody who was 
actually on the stage, so this is some really rare material. The sound 
and picture quality are not too bad, nice enough to enjoy the recording.
