????? ? ???? (Russian transliteration Snova v SSSR; English: Back in the USSR or The Russian Album) is the 7th studio album by Paul McCartney originally released in 1988 exclusively in the Soviet Union. The album consists entirely of covers, mainly of rock 'n roll oldies. With the addition of an extra track, the album was released internationally in 1991.

Rhapsody (online music service) praised the album, calling it one of their favorite cover albums.

Following the tepid reaction to his 1986 studio album Press to Play, McCartney spent much of the first half of 1987 plotting his next album. In July, he got the urge to get back to his roots by singing some of his favourite hits from the 1950s and over the course of two days, with three other (session) musicians, McCartney recorded sixteen songs, thirteen of which would be chosen for the eventual album release in the USSR the following year.

The title ????? ? ???? is Russian for "Back in the U.S.S.R." - a famous McCartney song from The Beatles' 1968 double album The Beatles (also known as the White Album). The title is often taken as if written in Latin letters (i.e. choba b cccp), but it is Russian, written in the Cyrillic alphabet, transliterated Snova v SSSR, and pronounced in Russian roughly snova v ess-ess-ess-er.

During the recording sessions 22 songs were recorded, but originally only 11 were put on the album. A second Soviet pressing, released in December 1988, increased the song total to 13 by adding "I'm Gonna Be a Wheel Someday" and "Summertime." The 1991 worldwide CD release contained 14 tracks by including "I'm in Love Again" (first released in 1989 as one of the B-sides to McCartney's "This One" single) as a bonus track. Two more tracks from the sessions saw official release: the blues jam "I Wanna Cry" as another of the "This One" B-sides and "It's Now or Never" on the New Musical Express double-LP/CD "The Last Temptation Of Elvis" in England in February 1990.

Six songs from the sessions remain unreleased: "I Saw Her Standing There" (the Beatles song), "Take This Hammer" (Lonnie Donegan) "Cut Across Shorty" (Eddie Cochran), "Poor Boy" (Elvis Presley), "Lend Me Your Comb" (Carl Perkins), and "No Other Baby" (The Vipers). The last of these would be re-recorded by McCartney on 1999's Run Devil Run.

The Russian album includes liner notes all in Russian, from original text by Roy Carr of the New Musical Express.

The cover of the album was designed by Michael Ross. Paul's photograph in a red star, the USSR's symbol was taken by Linda McCartney and was first featured inside of the gate fold album cover of Ram.

McCartney intended ????? ? ???? as present for Soviet fans who were generally unable to obtain his legitimate recordings, often having to make do with copies; they would, for a change, have an album that people in other countries would be unable to obtain. Accordingly, McCartney never intended the album to be sold outside the USSR, and mirroring the situation as it had been within the Soviet Union, it was a popular import or bootleg album in other countries. Following the collapse of the Soviet Union, ????? ? ???? was given a worldwide release in 1991, reaching #63 in the UK and #109 in the US. Curiously, the title is misprinted on this release as ????? ? ???? (? is the Cyrillic equivalent of the letter B in the Latin alphabet, rather than the B, equivalent to V, of the original). wikipedia

Review

by William Ruhlmann

This album of rock & roll oldies – "Lucille," "Twenty Flight Rock," and others – was recorded in two days in July, 1987, and released exclusively in the Soviet Union in 1988. It finally saw release in the U.S. in 1991 with one extra track, "I'm in Love Again," added. McCartney gives a spirited reading to the songs, which, it may be noted, are in some cases ("Ain't That a Shame," "Just Because") the same ones chosen by John Lennon for his similar Rock 'N' Roll album. But McCartney is characteristically more eclectic, including such ringers as "Summertime" and "Don't Get Around Much Anymore." allmusicguide
