Amoeba's Secret is an EP by Paul McCartney recorded during a secret performance at Amoeba Music on June 27, 2007. The EP was released in November 2007 in a limited vinyl edition, and in January 2009 on CD and digital download formats.
The EP reached 119 on the Billboard 200 albums chart, despite relatively little promotion. The low-resolution album art is intentional, as to make the EP resemble a bootleg recording.

Nominations

Neither song won, and both lost to John Mayer tracks ("Say" and "Gravity" respectively).
Reception
"Sadly, this is just a taste of the full 20-song set, but it's a good one", Stephen Thomas Erlewine for Allmusic. {{citation}}: Empty citation (help)
