McCartney regained the rights to the library – including all his releases from 1970 to 2006 – in February from EMI, although the major label do still remain in control of The Beatles‘ material.

“I’m always looking for new ways and opportunities to get my music to people and Concord share this passion,” McCartney said of the deal.

The deal will see Wings‘ 1973 album ‘Band On The Run’ re-released in August, with bonus material to be included.
