Paul McCartney recording for Starbucks

Starbucks announced they would form their own record label last week and this week they confirmed their first musician to release an album under the chain’s new Hear Music record label -- Paul McCartney.

"I've been working on it for a little while," McCartney said. "The songs are a little bit retrospective, some are of now, and some hark back to the past. All of them are songs I'm very proud of."

And to think, last week a friend of mine said Starbucks need to do something else to improve business like add ice cream to the stores! But a record label? Wow.
