Paul McCartney & Wings will officially release their live studio album One Hand Clapping on June 14.

The English-American rock band filmed a video documentary and possible live studio album - One Hand Clapping - at Abbey Road Studios in 1974. Despite overwhelming demand for newly recorded material, One Hand Clapping was never officially released.

Filmed and recorded over four days and directed by David Litchfield, the newly-mixed One Hand Clapping features the original artwork designed for the project, including a TV sales brochure for the unreleased film at the time. This is the first time the audio for the film and several additional songs recorded off-camera have been officially issued.

Opening with an instrumental jam that would become the One Hand Clapping theme song, the album features live-in-studio renditions of Wings mega-hits "Live and Let Die," "Band on the Run," "Jet," "My Love," "Hi, Hi, Hi," "Junior's Farm, "Paul's much loved solo song "Maybe I'm Amazed," reworked extracts of Beatles classics "Let It Be," "The Long and Winding Road" and "Lady Madonna," the Moody Blues hit "Go Now" with Denny Laine singing, and a Paul solo piano version of the Harry Akst/Benny Davis Tin Pan Alley classic "Baby Face."

One Hand Clapping is available to pre-order at https://shop.paulmccartney.com/collections/one-hand-clapping

Paramount+ has announced new episodes of the groundbreaking docuseries '"Behind The Music" will premiere exclusively on the service in the U.S. and Canada on May 1 and in the U.K., Australia, Latin America, Brazil, Italy, France, Germany, Switzerland and Austria on May 2.

The new episodes profile Bell Biv DeVoe, Trace Adkins and Wolfgang Van Halen, while remastered episodes feature 50 Cent, Bobby Brown, Ice-T, Milli Vanilli, The Notorious B.I.G. and Sinead O'Connor.

Official loglines for new episodes are as follows:

When New Edition dissolved in the late '80s, Ronnie DeVoe, Ricky Bell and Michael Bivins were counted out by critics and record executives. However, they defied expectations and became a multi-platinum group with their album Poison. The trio created some of the greatest party anthems of the 1990s, but infighting, financial pitfalls, addiction and mental health struggles almost led to the group's demise. Four decades later, Bell Biv DeVoe still is performing for multiple generations of adoring global fans.

Despite a near-fatal shooting, Trace Adkins worked his way to the top of the country music charts with his platinum-selling debut album Dreamin' Out Loud. But a sophomore slump and a struggle with alcoholism nearly destroyed his career. With help from family, musicians and mentors alike, Trace pushed forward with even more hits, a flourishing acting career and a new lease on life. Wolfgang Van Halen reveals his story that's wrought with trauma, perseverance and immense talent. Born to guitar god Eddie Van Halen and actress Valerie Bertinelli, Wolfgang instantly became bound to music. As he developed his own sound, Wolfgang turned to his solo project, Mammoth WVH, before tragedy struck. Eddie's death rocked his son's world, but Wolfgang solidified his music career with a sound all of his own while continuing to honor his father's legacy.

These artists join the star-studded lineup of original "Behind The Music" episodes on Paramount+, featuring Boy George, Bret Michaels, Busta Rhymes, Duran Duran, Jennifer Lopez, LL Cool J, New Kids on the Block, Remy Ma and Ricky Martin.

The docuseries is executive produced by Bruce Gillmer and Michael Maniaci for MTV Entertainment Studios.

Barbra Streisand has recorded a new song, "Love Will Survive", for an upcoming television series.

"Love Will Survive," Streisand's first-ever recording for a television series, is for the upcoming Sky and Peacock original series, The Tattooist of Auschwitz.

Composed by Hans Zimmer in collaboration with Kara Talve and Walter Afanasieff, the song features lyrics by Charlie Midnight. The single drops on April 25, ahead of the series' May 2 premiere date.

"Because of the rise in antisemitism around the world today, I wanted to sing 'Love Will Survive' in the context of this series, as a way of remembering the six-million souls who were lost less than 80 years ago," Streisand said in a statement. "And also to say that even in the darkest of times, the power of love can triumph and endure."

The series stars Harvey Keitel, Melanie Lynskey, Jonah Hauer-King, Anna Prochniak, and Jonas Nay.

The series is based on the bestselling novel of the same name by New Zealand novelist Heather Morris. The book tells the story of how Slovakian Jew Lale Sokolov, who was imprisoned at Auschwitz in 1942, fell in love with a girl he was tattooing at the concentration camp.

Disney+ announced that "Let It Be," director Michael Lindsay-Hogg's original 1970 film about The Beatles, will launch exclusively on the streaming service on May 8, 2024.

This will be the first time the film is available in over 50 years.

Let It Be was directed by Michael Lindsay-Hogg and was restored by Peter Jackson, who recently combed through 60 hours of footage to create the now-classic docuseries "Get Back."

Let It Be contains footage not featured in the "Get Back" docuseries, bringing viewers into the studio and onto Apple Corps' London rooftop in January 1969 as The Beatles, joined by Billy Preston, write and record their Grammy Award-winning album Let It Be, with its Academy Award-winning title song, and perform live for the final time as a group.

"I'm absolutely thrilled that Michael's movie, 'Let It Be,' has been restored and is finally being re-released after being unavailable for decades," says Jackson. "I was so lucky to have access to Michael's outtakes for 'Get Back,' and I've always thought that 'Let It Be' is needed to complete the 'Get Back' story."

"Over three parts, we showed Michael and The Beatles filming a groundbreaking new documentary, and 'Let It Be' is that documentary - the movie they released in 1970. I now think of it all as one epic story, finally completed after five decades," he added. "The two projects support and enhance each other: 'Let It Be' is the climax of 'Get Back,' while 'Get Back' provides a vital missing context for 'Let It Be.' Michael Lindsay-Hogg was unfailingly helpful and gracious while I made 'Get Back,' and it's only right that his original movie has the last word...looking and sounding far better than it did in 1970."
