From Wikipedia:
Never Stop Doing What You Love is a not-for-resale compilation of various Paul McCartney and Wings songs created for the employees and clients of Fidelity Investments, a company in the financial services industry. The ex-Beatle became the mutual fund giant’s new spokesman in 2005 in a campaign entitled “This Is Paul”, and the disc was issued in support of McCartney’s U.S. tour of the same year.
The cover features Paul playing his famous Höfner “Beatle” bass. The label side of the CD is printed to look like a vinyl record.
