Kiss, The Cure, Billy Joel For Paul McCartney Covers Album

April 11, 2011
Kiss, The Cure, Billy Joel For Paul McCartney Covers AlbumKiss, The Cure and Billy Joel will all feature on a new Paul McCartney covers album, it has been reported.

The singer is planning to make a new album featuring covers of his solo material and Wings tracks which will also feature his son James.

A source told The Sun: "James was over the moon at playing with The Cure. He's always been a big fan. They all went into a studio in Sussex and hung out together."

"Over the years, Robert Smith and Macca's paths have crossed countless times and he is chuffed having The Cure pay tribute to him."

The release date for the album has yet to be announced.
