Peter, Bjorn & John – “Put It There” (Paul McCartney Cover) (Stereogum Premiere)
On the new tribute-album compilation The Art Of McCartney, a long list of impressive big names line up to cover the songs of Paul McCartney, in his Beatles and Wings and solo incarnations. With 34 songs on the complete album, somehow there wasn’t enough room for Swede-pop dukes Peter Bjorn And John, who recorded a sweet and jangly version of McCartney’s “Put It There,” a single from his 1989 solo album Flowers In The Dirt. But the PB&J cover of the song does appear on the album as a bonus track, and you can listen to it below.
The Art Of McCartney is out 11/18 on Arctic Poppy/Kobalt. Pre-order it in digital and physical formats.
