Run Devil Run is the eleventh solo studio album by Paul McCartney, released in 1999. It features covers of both familiar and obscure 1950s rock and roll songs, along with three new McCartney songs written in the same style. As his first project following first wife Linda's death in 1998, McCartney felt the need to get back to his roots and perform some of the music he loved as a teenager. On 14 December 1999, McCartney returned to the Cavern Club stage to play a set publicising the new album.

Mourning becomes Paul McCartney, who cut this raging album of beefed-up vintage rockers a year after the death of his wife, Linda. Yes, sorrow soaks through both "No Other Baby", a 1958 skiffle track by the Vipers, and Ricky Nelson's “Lonesome Town". But the gloom is easily dispersed by the uplift and optimism in barnburners like Gene Vincent's hotwired "Blue Jean Bop", Little Richard's larynx-lacerating "Shake a Hand" and a Cajun-ised "Brown Eyed Handsome Man".
