Description: Paul McCartney - Back In The USSR - See Photos! Снова в СССР (Russian transliteration Snova v SSSR, English: Back in the USSR, also known as "The Russian Album") is the seventh solo studio album by Paul McCartney, originally released in 1988 exclusively in the Soviet Union. The album consists entirely of covers, mainly of rock & apos;n roll oldies (similar to John Lennon & apos;s 1975 album Rock 'n' Roll). With the addition of an extra track, the album was released internationally in 1991 following the collapse of the Soviet Union. The title Снова в СССР is Russian for "Back in the U.S.S.R."—a famous Lennon–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 Cyrillic, transliterated Snova v SSSR, and pronounced in Russian roughly snova v ess-ess-ess-er. The cover of the album was designed by Michael Ross. McCartney's photograph in a red star, the USSR's symbol, was taken by his wife Linda and was first featured inside the gatefold album cover of Ram. McCartney intended Снова в СССР as a 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
