(ACTUAL IMAGES)

“Press To Play” is Paul’s sixth solo studio album, released in August 1986, and his first solo album to be issued internationally by Capitol/EMI following a six-year alliance with Columbia Records in the United States. The autograph dates from shortly following the album’s release.

Keen to re-establish himself after his poorly received 1984 musical film "Give My Regards to Broad Street", PAUL enlisted producer Hugh Padgham to give the album a contemporary sound. UPON ITS  release ON AUGUST 21, 1986 (CAPITOL PJAS-12475), "Press to Play" received a mixed critical reception and was PAUL'S poorest-selling studio album up to that point. Although it failed to make the top 20 in America, the album peaked at number 8 on the U.K. Albums Chart and achieved gold status from the BPI in September 1986. Four singles were issued from "Press to Play":  "Press", "Pretty Little Head", "Stranglehold" and "Only Love Remains".  "Press" was a minor success, peaking at number 21 in the U.S.

The signature is STUNNING, vibrant and beautifully executed, with the overall cover condition grading a VG++, displaying some paper loss and tears on the edges of the back cover due to the cover being removed from a frame.

THE ACCOMPANYING RECORD IS NOT INCLUDED.

THIS BEAUTIFULLY AUTOGRAPHED "PRESS TO PLAY" ALBUM COVER IS ACCOMPANIED BY A LETTER OF AUTHENTICITY FROM PERRY COX, PROMINENT BEATLES U.S. RECORDS EXPERT AND AUTHOR OF "THE BEATLES RECORD PRICE GUIDE" SERIES OF BOOKS.
