THE first video from Paul McCartney’s new album, “Memory Almost Full,” is an otherworldly fantasy, directed by the French filmmaker Michel Gondry, in which a postman brings this former Beatle a box with an old mandolin and, it turns out, an assembly of mischievous ghosts. As Mr. McCartney plays “Dance Tonight,” with its simple percussion and bright pop melody, the ghosts — including one played by Natalie Portman — leap around him, throw sparkling fireballs and scare off the postman. Mr. McCartney later follows them into the box, and as the clip ends, he is seen jamming with them, playing the drums.

Surreal as the video is, it says a lot about what Mr. McCartney is up to on “Memory Almost Full,” to be released on Tuesday on the Hear Music label, a joint venture between Starbucks and the Concord Music Group. The ghosts may terrify the postman, but Mr. McCartney happily cavorts with them. And while the ghosts don’t seem to be from Mr. McCartney’s past, his comfort with them suggests the ease with which his history informs many of the songs on the album, including a suite that moves from childhood memories to thoughts of death. He is describing “Memory Almost Full” as a “rather personal” album.

It almost wasn’t an album at all. Mr. McCartney began recording it at the end of 2003 with his touring band but abruptly shelved the project. It wasn’t that he was dissatisfied with the music, he said in a telephone interview from his recording studio in Sussex, England; but he had wanted to work with Nigel Godrich, Radiohead’s longtime producer. When Mr. Godrich became available, Mr. McCartney decided to start fresh and to play all the instruments himself. That collaboration yielded “Chaos and Creation in the Backyard” in 2005.

We've prepared for you a little about Red Hot Chilli Peppers members. Today a little introduction of Anthony Kiedis.

Anthony Kiedis (born November 1, 1962) is the lead singer and a co-founder of the American rock band Red Hot Chili Peppers. He is also responsible for writing most of the band's vocal melodies and lyrics. Though his style was originally a rap/rock fusion, over time Kiedis developed his singing voice.

Anthony Kiedis was born in Grand Rapids, Michigan, to John Kiedis and Margaret "Peggy" Idema (née Noble), who divorced in 1965 when he was three. He has two half-sisters, Julie and Jenny, and a half-brother, James. His great-grandfather, Antwon Kiedis, is Lithuanian and his paternal grandmother has some Mohican blood. His godfather was Sonny Bono.

Kiedis lived with his mother in Grand Rapids until he was 11, then moved to Los Angeles with his father, a soon-to-be actor and drug dealer. Keidis himself has admitted that his love for heroin was influenced by his drug addict father. His father was the person who introduced him to drugs; Anthony would later go on to use and abuse many drugs in his lifetime. Sexual activity also became recurrent in the boy's life; according to his autobiography Scar Tissue, he lost his virginity when he was around 12 years old to his father's girlfriend.

Kiedis spent much of his youth listening to Sly & the Family Stone, Led Zeppelin and Stevie Wonder - artists who would influence the Red Hot Chili Peppers' sound. Around the age of 15, while a student at Fairfax High School, he met future bandmate Michael Balzary (Flea), Hillel Slovak, and Jack Irons. In Scar Tissue, Kiedis tells of how he took up the role of a "protector" in school, defending all the kids who were outcast or bullied. When Flea was playfully putting his friend in a headlock, he told Flea to back off. However, when the misunderstanding was revealed, the two teenagers became friends.
