GREAT PERFORMANCES: PAUL MCCARTNEY'S LIVE KISSES
September 7, 2012  | By David Bianculli

PBS, 9:00 p.m. ET

 
The full album title McCartney is exploring here is Kisses on the Bottom, a lyric from the Fats Waller standard "I'm Gonna Sit Right Down and Write Myself a Letter." One can only surmise Kisses on the Bottom Live was vetoed by PBS's marketing team. No matter what the film's title, it captures McCartney, joined by Diana Krall and other jazz masters, performing in an equally classic setting — Los Angeles' iconic Capitol Records studios, where Frank Sinatra and others recorded. For a full review, see Eric Gould's Cold Light Reader column. Check local listings.
