Paul McCartney’s band Wings is celebrating the 50th anniversary of their fourth studio album, Venus and Mars.

The milestone will be marked with a new half-speed master reissue of the album, dropping March 21. The remaster was created by Miles Showell at Abbey Road Studios using the original master recordings from 1975 and will feature a reproduction of the original U.K. pressing, and a recreation of the original artwork by Hipgnosis.

The album will also get its first-ever Dolby Atmos release, with Giles Martin and Steve Orchard behind the new mix.

The follow-up to the hit album Band on the Run, Venus and Mars, released May 30, 1975, hit #1 on the Billboard 200 Albums chart. It featured the #1 single “Listen to What the Man Said.”

Venus and Mars (50th Anniversary) is available for preorder now.
