Paul McCartney Live is a 1993 bootleg CD by Paul McCartney. This was released by Mainland Music with two different covers and this is one of them, taken from his 1993 tour.
In 1993, Paul McCartney and his band embarked upon The New World Tour, spanning almost the entire year and almost the entire globe. This tour featured a controversial pre-concert film (starting in the U.S leg of the tour), which was shown before all of the concerts and had graphic animal test footage in the film. This film can be seen on the Paul is Live In Concert on the New World Tour video.

It was the third and last time Paul McCartney toured Australia. A proposed further tour to Australia in 2002 was cancelled after the Bali Bombings.

This was to be McCartney's last tour for nine years, after his wife and band member, Linda McCartney, was diagnosed with breast cancer in 1995, and died in 1998 at the age of 56.

The tour was intended to promote McCartney's album Off the Ground. Despite having released three albums of live material in the space of the previous three years (Tripping the Live Fantastic, Tripping the Live Fantastic: Highlights!, and Unplugged), the tour was followed by Paul Is Live, consisting of material from The New World Tour. The release was not embraced by record-buyers, becoming McCartney's lowest-selling live album.

Reviews of the Australian leg of the 1993 tour have described a boom (more like a "cherry picker") that was used during the show. During Sgt.Pepper, Paul and Robbie stepped onto the approximately 4 ft. by 6 ft. platform and were lifted out over the audience.

The old MMT piano "rose up" in front of the stage at Paul's command, stopping just to the right of his "position" on the stage. A grand piano, also used, was tilted forward so even the close rows
could see Macca when he sat at it.

The grand finale was Hey Jude. As Rudi "Drudi" Riet already said, it was a sing-along, with Macca exhorting each side, then the middle of the audience to do the "Sha Na Na, Na Na Na Na" bit.

Then the whole band climbed onto the cherry picker platform, which swung all the way out to the 12th row. Linda picked up a red bag and began throwing rose petals into the audience as the platform
moved out to the left, then back to the right side of the stage.
