Having already put out one solid album this year (covers project Kisses on the Bottom) Paul McCartney is already looking ahead to his next release. Recently, sources told The Sunday Mirror that the former Beatle has been eyeing producer Mark Ronson (Duran Duran, Amy Winehouse, Mark Ronson & The Business Intl.) to step behind the mixing board. “This week they went to the studio and started knocking about together to see what they can do together,” said the unnamed source. “Everybody’s really excited about the prospect of Mark working with Paul.”

The pair already has a friendship/working relationship. Lastly, Ronson DJed McCartney’s wedding to Nancy Shevell. “Paul respects Mark’s knowledge and is wanting to produce a classic album with a young hip edge,” the source continued. “And obviously Mark is over the moon to be working with a Beatle.”
