Paul McCartney says returning to his usual bass playing duties on his new album, "Driving Rain," was "simple and satisfying." As previously reported, the set, McCartney's first since 1999's "Run Devil Run," is due Nov. 13 in North America. "One of the things that began when we were doing 'Run Devil Run,' was me remembering that I'm mainly the bass player," he said. "Talking about the old way the Beatles used to record brought that back to me. So although I've played a bit of guitar and stuff on the occasional track, I've basically been the bass player. That's my role."
