||||||
| The
first Wings album, done in a very DIY style before there was such a thing.
Not really much here, save for that. Again, when you go from The Beatles to this, it's very anti-climactic. |

||||||
| Since
the first album didn't do too well, the brass at Capitol Records
decided to add the 'Paul McCartney & . . .' bit to help the public realise who was in the group. Plus the picure on the cover was a dead giveaway. Not a bad idea, and 'My Love' became Wings' first real hit. |

| THIS
is more like it! Stripped down to a trio, Macca played most of the
instruments himself and the result is the best Wings album of all time. |

| Another
commerical wallop from Sir Paul. Had a nice band feel to it, too.
Not really a concept album, but presented in a way where it could be. Great album! |

||||||
| Ah,
commercialism rears its ugly head . . . and Linda gets her only lead
vocal ever. Still, it's Paul and I love it! Killer Top 40 tunes with the classic 'Silly Love Songs' and 'Let 'Em In.' Transports me back to 1976 every single time. |

| A
monster 3-Record set when released at the end of 1976,
this was a token of thanks to the fans for a highly successful US tour (for Wings at the Speed of Sound), and to the fans who couldn't attend (like me - too young!). One of the best live albums of all time. |

| Stripped
back down to a trio (Jimmy McCulloch was fired for constant drug
use [and later died because of it] - ironic then when Paul was busted in Japan the following year for possession) and Joe English quit to be with his family, Paul, Linda, & Denny Laine forged on. A lackluster album by all counts, there are some good tunes on this. And I love every second of it! Good for a rainy afternoon. |

| The
obligatory compilation with the addition of a single-only release ('Another
Day') and the new tune, 'Mull of Kintyre,' which went straight to Number One in the UK during the height of the Punk movement in 1977. Funny what a melody can do, huh? |

||||||
| My
favourite Wings album of all time! Adding Steve Holly (drums)
and Laurence Juber (guitar), Wings was a full-fledged band again, and the rocked like nobody's business. Paul also put together an all-star lineup for 'Rockestra Theme' and 'So Glad to See You Here.' He would take this and run with it by putting on the Concerts for Kampuchea benefit shows during the last week of December, 1979 (see below). |

| A
benefit conert for the third world nation of Kampuchea (Cambodia, I think)
and sponsored by UNICEF. Sir Paul put together a stirng of shows (over 3 nights) by the best of the old and new (UK) groups of the day. Great to hear the old nugget 'Every Night' live, and the collaboration of Rockpile and Robert Plant on an Elvis Presley classic! Plus, live Clash and The Pretenders before their debut album was released! Those were the days . . . |
