It was a great idea to have Mary interviewing Paul - made him far more relaxed and honest, and she in turn could ask him things other interviewers couldn't.
At age 75, I still and always will remember a great day-night at the Cow Palace in San Fran...Wings Over America Tour. First laser light show I'd ever seen and the music, as always with Paul, was flat awesome! The man is almost my age and still gives it his all at each show...2 - 3 hours!!?? Paul is my favorite alltime hero! Rock On Guy!!!!! Ken Skeen
Linda was a wonderful photographer. She captured the greatest rock musicians of the 1960s and 1970s. American and over The Pond. I purchased her compilation. Gorgeous compositions in black 'n' white shot with a Nikon F.
I love that courage statement he made about Linda...rarely ... perhaps...first time..did I witness...such sharing and Paul's high hopes and generosity for his wife...and I hold her as a genuine member of WINGS!!! ...NOT because he says so but because there is one song that she does that I really really like...Voila.
Last November I saw Denny Laine In NYC he did a concert based on Band on the run experience. Denny told some amazing stories about Paul & Linda. She held the band together
dunno if anyone cares but if you guys are bored like me atm you can stream pretty much all the new movies on instaflixxer. I've been watching with my gf during the lockdown =)
Well as much as I'd like to agree - you're wrong. Yoko actually was a big influence on bands like the B-52's and she gets credit for that. Linda was forced by Paul to play keyboards and sing, but she really didn't care if she did it or not and didn't really do anything difficult music wise. Just the bare minimum. Yoko did play keyboards at the One to One Concert, but I don't recall her being a musician beyond that. But she did write songs, and had a single that was a minor hit on the dance scene in 1980.
Quit the shit of saying Linda had more than Yoko or vice versa...they were two very different mates to the two most important men in the music world eternal. STOP and listen to all if it....both works these people put into our ears....rock on! Love peace and mercy.jan chiodo Wilhelm six nation's NY
Actually Yoko was a trained pianist having studied from age 4 to about 13. She could also read music which is more than John could do. That she ended up playing in Paul's band was a matter of circumstance. Paul wanted to tour and wanted his family with him. John didn't want to tour. Simple.
Yoko is actually talented, but her voice isn’t my thing at all. Linda did great harmonies, her voice is at the core of Wings’ warm sound, along with Denny. I also love her song “Oriental Nightfish” a lot, very psychedelic and weird, even for the 70’s.
You know people don't knock Linda much anymore, not after Paul married Heather Mills, then folks really appreciated Linda. I always sort of liked her and appreciate seeing her on these videos nowadays. She was a trooper as she really didn't wish to be a band member.Paul's daughter Mary keeps it all in the family. Thanks for posting.
Oh Mary. Please talk to you Father and tell him a story of my sister. Mary is my sister. She almost lost her life in 1961. But God willing, a visiting Doctor from Boston was in Edinburgh. He chose her as a ginipig and saved Her life. Mary, being the eldest, brought us up on with your Dads music. Her fave being Ram. Mary always said that your Dads music got her through the tough times after her surgeries at the hospitals. On behalf of my Sister. Thank Your Dad. My Sister would. But She's too busy working in the Hospital.
They were so earthy basically lived like bohemians because they chose that lifestyle. Linda was a role model for me in the 70s. I'm 60 now. Always loved their dignity. I use her 2nd cookbook. Her asparagus fritters/fritatas are off the chain. Linda probably riding a horse up in the sky's right now! Smokin a doobie.
You want to know something really sad? My mom said in the 80s she was SHOCKED when she found out John was still alive. She actually thought that John was already dead. Because hadn't heard much about him in the 70s not even songs on the radio I mean she wasn't really into the Beatles, but all she said she only heard Paul George and even Ringo's music (but she did like most of Paul's music) but that is pretty scary not mention all the other Beatles had been heard of but its just.... I was like wow...REALLY!?! 0_o
Ka Boom Who are you kidding?With the exception of "Plastic ono band",Imagine"and his songs on "Double fantasy"most of Lennons songs are below what hes capable of writing.'Sometime in nyc" has to be the worst album ever released and should have been an embarrassment to him.What do we expect when Yokos involved?He accused McCartney of writing muzak but listen to 'Mind games',and Walls and bridges and thats what you have.
Ron Slack Muzak. LOL!!! The young people of today would call a lot of what the Beatles recorded as muzak or something worse. REBELZAK is what I call most of what John Lennon did after the Beatles broke up. Or maybe REBEL DRIBBLE might also be a more accurate description of it. John Lennon wanted to have his cake and eat it too. He wanted to be looked upon as a "WORKING CLASS HERO" whilst maintaining the trappings of being a millionaire living in an expensive location in NYC which is where Yoko wanted to live the good life with his millions. Life with Yoko and her bogus art was such a transparent farce for John and it ended up costing him his life to boot. He was always my favorite Beatle because of his quick ascerbic wit and altruistic focus. I curse the moment he met Yoko because he was so much less than he could have continued to be once he fell under her spell. They both craved the limelight, but kept on turning out crap together. They went around promoting the FAD OF THE MONTH on whatever talk shows would let them come on to indulge this self appointed role. YOKO was the slick parasite who knew how to feed John's ego and let him think he was better off with her than he would be with Paul McCartney in the recording studio. Her spell and con game kept working on him year after year. I lost so much respect and admiration for John because of this. SO SAD - SO TRANSPARENT - SO SHALLOW. Look at the total body of work and total number of live performances Paul has done since the Beatles broke up. NOTHING SHORT OF AMAZING He has consistently filled huge venues all around the world and TOTALLY SATISFIED his audiences each and every time. Despite the fact that John was always my favorite Beatle, I've had to be objective about evaluating his talent and output compared to that of Paul's. As much as it pained me to do so, after hearing Paul's solo masterpiece RAM, I had to concede the obvious glaring fact. Paul had been the most prolific and core musical talent of the Beatles. He was the Arkansas of the Beatles. By that, I mean he had what it took to survive and prosper alone. Of the land-locked states, Arkansas has a sufficient diversity of natural resources to prosper without having to import anything from outside its own borders. At 71 or 72, Paul has demonstrated how creatively driven he continues to be and the music scholars will be quite objective and therefore quite generous when evaluating his body of work. No room for REBEL DRIBBLE or any other kind of senseless dribble.
I read your comment before hearing it thinking Paul doesn't ever sound like George. The interview part didn't make me think of George, but the '70s voiceover parts came on and thought, wow, that's a heck of a lot like him!
Yeah right Paul...didn't know what those seeds were. The weird thing is is that back then probably most of the people who heard him say that actually believed him.
Even I believe that because of how he came across. Lovey dovey et al. Only thing that gave him a mark was his business dealing with former Wings members and the Beatles. Ifollowed him from 1981 after breakup Wings and he did a song with Stevie Wonder. But it was really, the marriage and breakup of Heather Mills that documentaries were willing to " explore"of what really happened behind the scenes with the Beatles, and Wings concerning, sex, drugs, and rock n roll.
After the Beatles, I like many wished they might get together again. Twas not meant to be. Wings as they started, not unlike John and Yoko, were doing they're own thing. Paul and Linda and their friends impressed me simply with their love of music, but most of all love of each other and love of friends. They just had it. Ram was the first album I bought. I loved it. I bought everything they did after that. I got to see the newer v and in Kansas City on a full moon night, 1995. Linda was there. I got pretty emotional. The show was fantastic. Linda and Paul were connected to each other, the band, and all of us. The fans. Lady Linda and Sir Paul. Thank you. sure do wish Linda were here with you still. Your legendary music lives on. T
In the 1980s I worked with a guy called Eddie whom had worked alongside fellow gas fitter Joe Cocker in Oxford in the 1960s whom later became a famous singer whom worked with young Henry whom worked with Paul McCartney. This probably doesn’t count as 5 degrees of separation due to the wobbly time lines but I may be wrong.
a great album well ahead of its time, as critics didn't give it a chance. in recent years it has been far better reviewed. Ram is also great, and of course Band on the Run!
Paul heeft ook eenmaal met Wings opgetreden in Ahoy, met Linda ze hadden toen de kinderen bij zich na dit optreden vertrok hij naar de USA voor een tourne,nadat hij na Wings (zonder Beatle nummers)o.a in Ahoy weer het bijna volledige Beatles programma bracht waren de rapen los, waanzinnig publiek iedereen was hay , zelf kon ik mijn tranen niet meer de baas en mijn echtgenote riep mij op tot kalmte. Nu maandag 8 juni 2015,dankzij Mojo naar het Ziggo DOME in Amsterdam misschien voor mij zijn laatse live optreden, de Beatles hebben voor een groot gedeelt Mijn leven gelukkig gemaakt. Jaap Mooi Nijmegen
Jaap Mooi Hallo Jaap, leuk verhaal. Ik kan me goed voorstellen dat je je tranen niet meer de baas kon zijn. Ben ook al jarennnnn fan / liefhebber van Paul / Beatles. Heb hem diverse malen live gezien. Nu ook weer opnieuw in Amsterdam evenals jij op 8 juni. We zijn hiervoor speciaal naar Nederland gekomen daar we al een tijdje in het buitenland wonen. 18 uur auto rijden voor een 2 1/2 uur durend optreden. Het was het meer dan waard. En ook ik, had tranen in mijn ogen. Zoals bij elk van zijn concert. Mijn gevoel zegt me dat dit de laatste keer was dat ie live te zien was. Ik hoop dat ik het mis heb.
Fagin is a great part. You've have to pick a pocket or two. I just watched that film about a month ago on DVD. I still remember seeing it at The Alexandria Theater in San Francisco when it came out in 1968. It played there for 18 months.
I would not call Wings Wild Life garbage. McCartney did some pretty gutsy and experimental stuff. If you look at some of his early solo work and the first couple of Wings albums without stuffing them in a Beatles box, they were all excellent records. Paul was trying to distance himself from the Beatles. So were John and George. Each of their first solo efforts were unique. It's all in how you look at it. If you were expecting an extension of the Beatles in Paul's career apart from the fan four,
The ambient music he made with the music producer guy from industrial punk outfit killing joke - Youth under the name The Firemen or Fireman in the early 1990s is pretty cool in my opinion 👍
This band Wingz was Faul's revenge! He survived his internship with the Beatles (as Paul's replacement & look alike) and became a huge success without the Beatles. Fauls' personal story as a rocker and a Beatle is the greatest story that is just slowly but surely being realized by those ,"who have ears to hear, eyes to see." cheers!
Linda was her own woman...she had the nerve to wear the sneakers & I love her for it. Very sweet. The hairy underarms I could live without tho. She was a cool lady who never let all the fame & fortune go to her head, she kept Paul grounded
+j flo How could Paul have been with someone scruffy like that? No makeup, definitely no fashion sense, and if she didn't shave, I wonder if she even washed. Paul always looked neat and clean.
+Noelle Jordan Then she died and he married Heather Mills, who did everything you think Linda should have- and look how that turned out! Really, Linda had been dead 18 years, and you are still ranting like a 15 year old in 1971! And I love Linda's dress sense!
N Flo. I know her arm puts were radical. See the uncle Albert video of them riding their horses, her bob boobs bouncing away. She was a no nonsense woman. She was mother earth. Rest peacefully Linda. I know your up there riding your horse.
I saw Wings perform at The Oakland Coliseum in 1976. We had good seats and they played well but the only Beatles song they performed was "I Saw Her Standing There." You'd think "Yesterday" would be almost mandatory.
Paul - when he was in his mid to late-twenties - looked fantastic in a beard. He then looked terrific again - in his thirties - with a mustache, a soul patch, and a mullet.
1:33 That's the exact moment he started to dress ridiculously bad. Until then he had been mostly a trend setter (Noel Gallagher still wears his 1967 hair style to this day). His 1970-early 71 period was still good, with his beard, his Tommy Nutter suits, and fair isle sweaters in Scotland. But his 70s Wings period was atrocious in the clothes/hair department, and the 80s were not much better. To give him his due, he's Paul McCartney and he can do as he pleases. He's always been really good looking, and very lean. I'd say he never went much over 165 lbs (75 Kg) or below 155 (70 kg), so unlike Lennon who had his plump and anorexic periods, he always looked great.
The seventies and eighties are often referred back to at various points respectively as the "decade(s) taste forgot". It could be said 1972 was the start of the '80s. Well, in terms of David Bowie and Bryan Ferry's mullets, and Paul had that toned down version budget barber version for most of the Wings era.
love them or hate them , in England the Gallagher brothers gave The Beatles appreciation to the generation born in the early 1970s that had only been hinted at by the likes of Elvis Costello at Live Aid for us born in 1964 for whom punk & synth pop paid no obvious respect or dues to. Or to put it another way , for us in England aged 20 in 1984 The Beatles were something much older siblings or with young parents had loved & Wings had hit songs when we were 10yrs old but nobody from Adam Ant or Lemmy or Terry Hall ever overtly praised The Beatles as an iconic influence.( although Paul Weller obviously loved Steve Marriott)…I learn how to work a Dansette or that u had to plonk the arm at the edge of the disc using She’s A Woman / I Feel Fine 😃
Yes McCartney has incredible talent. Why do you think we call such people 'gifted'? He didn't work any harder than most of us do, his talents are innate or god-given the religious might say. Not only can he create amazing music which being able to do must be hugely rewarding quite apart from the material rewards, but it is something he quite understandably loves doing. How many of us can say that about our means of making a living? Undeniably he is an outrageously fortunate individual and we bestow honors on him as though he somehow earned his gifts! Now if he does good eith the proceeds of his fortune, maybe we should honor him for that.
Can you imagine what the plants could have been sold for on the market as Paul McCartney's Home Grown? Beatle freaks would have paid a fortune to have that stash.
I just purchased a vinyl copy of"Wildlife" and I didn't find it terribly exciting. There was maybe 2 or 3 decent tracks, other than it seemed like mostly improvised material. I prefer the polish of "Ram" or "Band on the Run."
Touring Universities and in an open top bus in Europe....imagine that today? That's why today's younger generation will never experience anything like that..instead they get a karaoke pub singer who is a multi millionaire and is bang average at best...but still they get no access to him. It's all about being somewhere at the right time in history!!!!! I preferred the other Wings guitarist Jimmy McCullough.
Quite true and in fact, any film that has been transferred to video and is easily accessible on the internet such as on TH-cam cannot, by definition, be considered rare. If it's on TH-cam it is NOT rare.
It's rare in my life and I'm so grateful it's still around because so many things are pulled now due to copyright. He's so cool to not pull this because it's super personal.
I love Paul and and Linda but to be really fair they loved this kind of thing being out there. It was who they were and are. Paul always loved anything about him to be out there for people to see. Nothing wrong with that. You can see a lot of their personal life on a doco called Wingspan where Mary interviews Paul about Wings and Linda. It's available on line on ebay and in stores. Been out for years
1:21 .....that's either late '69 or early '70 (doesn't really matter) .....that may have been one of the reasons the Beatles broke up.......hey, they have personal lives too......Lennon's contributions in songwriting were on the decline as far as quality goes, George wasn't happy getting snubbed and having 1 or 2 songs on a Beatles album....Paul had many options then and maybe he made a "family decision".......he made his fortune with John, George and Ringo and are/were dear friends....but they weren't his FAMILY.
can you believe the attitude to ganja? a few seeds in the post, just happened to plant them, and what, he got off the charge, or whatever. One law for the rich, another for the poor.
It was a great idea to have Mary interviewing Paul - made him far more relaxed and honest, and she in turn could ask him things other interviewers couldn't.
At age 75, I still and always will remember a great day-night at the Cow Palace in San Fran...Wings Over America Tour. First laser light show I'd ever seen and the music, as always with Paul, was flat awesome! The man is almost my age and still gives it his all at each show...2 - 3 hours!!?? Paul is my favorite alltime hero! Rock On Guy!!!!! Ken Skeen
1000% agree! I saw him in 1975! Fantastic performance!
Ken Skeen i saw him in Philadelphia 1976.unforgettable
Linda was a wonderful photographer. She captured the greatest rock musicians of the 1960s and 1970s. American and over The Pond. I purchased her compilation. Gorgeous compositions in black 'n' white shot with a Nikon F.
I love that courage statement he made about Linda...rarely ... perhaps...first time..did I witness...such sharing and Paul's high hopes and generosity for his wife...and I hold her as a genuine member of
WINGS!!!
...NOT because he says so but because there is one song that she does that I really really like...Voila.
Mary mccartney is such a beautiful lady
Last November I saw Denny Laine In NYC he did a concert based on Band on the run experience. Denny told some amazing stories about Paul & Linda. She held the band together
Man, what would I DO to see Wings live.
dunno if anyone cares but if you guys are bored like me atm you can stream pretty much all the new movies on instaflixxer. I've been watching with my gf during the lockdown =)

@Uriah Dante Yup, I have been watching on InstaFlixxer for since december myself :)
@Uriah Dante Yea, I have been watching on instaflixxer for months myself =)
Linda was a thousand times more a musician than Yoko could ever dream of being.
Well as much as I'd like to agree - you're wrong. Yoko actually was a big influence on bands like the B-52's and she gets credit for that. Linda was forced by Paul to play keyboards and sing, but she really didn't care if she did it or not and didn't really do anything difficult music wise. Just the bare minimum.

"wild life" is paul's best album by far! great fresh rock'n'roll!
Paul McCartney, one cool customer.
A thumbs up! Wow so this is how the Band Paul McCartney & the Wings formed after the Rock-N-Roll band named the Beatles so cool. Rock-n-Roll Forever.
Interesting.... as a musician....life is crazy....God holds me together
The description should say: As interviewed by her daughter Mary. That's cool, for a daughter to interview her father.
This isn't 'RARE.' It's part of the Wingspan documentary.
All the Beatles were very insightful
They were so earthy basically lived like bohemians because they chose that lifestyle. Linda was a role model for me in the 70s. I'm 60 now. Always loved their dignity. I use her 2nd cookbook. Her asparagus fritters/fritatas are off the chain. Linda probably riding a horse up in the sky's right now! Smokin a doobie.
linda looks like she's doing okey to me, octaves and chords. quite adequater to rock out. god, I bet they had fun.
Love this clip so much!!!❤️❤️❤️
oh man so glad to find this,, saw it yrs ago.
メアリーさんと回想している若き日々、とにかくエキサイティングでcrazyでエネルギッシュで、あの若さ今だに続いてる、素晴らしいことです🎵❗～～✴✨❤☀😘!⤴

he always rubs his right temple and coughs when he is nervous
I love that cough in the end. He says his "technical offence" line and then almost coughs *bullsh!t* at himself. Love it!
"I didn't know what the seeds were." Ah uh.
In the 1980s I worked with a guy called Eddie whom had worked alongside fellow gas fitter Joe Cocker in Oxford in the 1960s whom later became a famous singer whom worked with young Henry whom worked with Paul McCartney. This probably doesn’t count as 5 degrees of separation due to the wobbly time lines but I may be wrong.
Each of them have their values
Who is this McCartney fella? He seems very talented. I predict a bright future.
It's from Wingspan documentary, like NicNac said, but thanks because I no longer have a copy of it.
Wings mark I was the the best, the real band. And "Wild Life" was their best album, a way too ahead of its time.
a great album well ahead of its time, as critics didn't give it a chance. in recent years it has been far better reviewed. Ram is also great, and of course Band on the Run!

+j flo How could Paul have been with someone scruffy like that? No makeup, definitely no fashion sense, and if she didn't shave, I wonder if she even washed. Paul always looked neat and clean.
+Noelle Jordan Then she died and he married Heather Mills, who did everything you think Linda should have- and look how that turned out! Really, Linda had been dead 18 years, and you are still ranting like a 15 year old in 1971!
And I love Linda's dress sense!
N Flo. I know her arm puts were radical. See the uncle Albert video of them riding their horses, her bob boobs bouncing away. She was a no nonsense woman. She was mother earth. Rest peacefully Linda. I know your up there riding your horse.
j flo Linda is getting her much deserved due now.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY PAUL
I saw Wings perform at The Oakland Coliseum in 1976. We had good seats and they played well but the only Beatles song they performed was "I Saw Her Standing There." You'd think "Yesterday" would be almost mandatory.
Good Stuff!
Rare or not a great interview. He mentions hitting the road , kids and dogs . Ronnie Lane did the same. Very cool....
i just planted the seeds i did not realize what they were :D
in the end he's so high.
6:50 I was dreaming of the past, and my hear was beating fast
Why did Paul shave off his beard? He looks so good in a beard.
dobrautero Agreed!
Paul - when he was in his mid to late-twenties - looked fantastic in a beard. He then looked terrific again - in his thirties - with a mustache, a soul patch, and a mullet.
1:33 That's the exact moment he started to dress ridiculously bad. Until then he had been mostly a trend setter (Noel Gallagher still wears his 1967 hair style to this day). His 1970-early 71 period was still good, with his beard, his Tommy Nutter suits, and fair isle sweaters in Scotland. But his 70s Wings period was atrocious in the clothes/hair department, and the 80s were not much better. To give him his due, he's Paul McCartney and he can do as he pleases. He's always been really good looking, and very lean. I'd say he never went much over 165 lbs (75 Kg) or below 155 (70 kg), so unlike Lennon who had his plump and anorexic periods, he always looked great.
Fer Abra People dressed differently and had different hair styles then.
The seventies and eighties are often referred back to at various points respectively as the "decade(s) taste forgot". It could be said 1972 was the start of the '80s. Well, in terms of David Bowie and Bryan Ferry's mullets, and Paul had that toned down version budget barber version for most of the Wings era.
love them or hate them , in England the Gallagher brothers gave The Beatles appreciation to the generation born in the early 1970s that had only been hinted at by the likes of Elvis Costello at Live Aid for us born in 1964 for whom punk & synth pop paid no obvious respect or dues to. Or to put it another way , for us in England aged 20 in 1984 The Beatles were something much older siblings or with young parents had loved & Wings had hit songs when we were 10yrs old but nobody from Adam Ant or Lemmy or Terry Hall ever overtly praised The Beatles as an iconic influence.( although Paul Weller obviously loved Steve Marriott)…I learn how to work a Dansette or that u had to plonk the arm at the edge of the disc using She’s A Woman / I Feel Fine 😃
I totally agree with Daniel Archille
3 or 4 good ones since 1970??? McCartney has had tons of great stuff post Beatles. Way in excess of what Lennon came up with.
I actually love every Wings album, they’re all different from each other.
Good first LP...and then a few keeners...E
While John and Yoko kept stepping in and out of different "bags", Paul kept to music for the sake of music.
John Lennon's music was just as groundbreaking if not more at that time
"We planted them all and five of them came up illegal"
I always felt for Linda going into the whole wings stuff. Probably to be near her man, possibly to please him. Ah well, brave girl!
very lovely interviewer :)))
never better :)
+mykimikimiky Paul's daughter.
Attila Ambrus
that's right
I was also b in Kings College Hospital
McCartney, one of the LUCKY ones. So many of us, just as nice people, we haven't had ANY luck!
you may be nice but do you have his incredible talent haha what the fuck does luck have to do with it
Yes McCartney has incredible talent. Why do you think we call such people 'gifted'?
He didn't work any harder than most of us do, his talents are innate or god-given the religious might say. Not only can he create amazing music which being able to do must be hugely rewarding quite apart from the material rewards, but it is something he quite understandably loves doing. How many of us can say that about our means of making a living? Undeniably he is an outrageously fortunate individual and we bestow honors on him as though he somehow earned his gifts! Now if he does good eith the proceeds of his fortune, maybe we should honor him for that.
Can you imagine what the plants could have been sold for on the market as Paul McCartney's Home Grown? Beatle freaks would have paid a fortune to have that stash.
Keith Moon at 01:55
I just purchased a vinyl copy of"Wildlife" and I didn't find it terribly exciting. There was maybe 2 or 3 decent tracks, other than it seemed like mostly improvised material. I prefer the polish of "Ram" or "Band on the Run."
nice.
it is from wingspan film
That's Paul's daughter Mary McCartney!
She is rather gorgeous
People are STILL going on about the "Paul is dead" crap? REALLY???
I wonder if they have mental issues
Touring Universities and in an open top bus in Europe....imagine that today? That's why today's younger generation will never experience anything like that..instead they get a karaoke pub singer who is a multi millionaire and is bang average at best...but still they get no access to him. It's all about being somewhere at the right time in history!!!!! I preferred the other Wings guitarist Jimmy McCullough.
give Ireland back to the irish
Those plants were really yielding a lot of kush. How ridiculous it's seems to make such a fuss over a few plants .
Of *COURSE* Paul had no idea whatsoever what those pot seeds were when he was growing them! XD
Mi amor la periodista!.Le doy jaja😂
What was this from?
+WarnerMusicVideos wingspan
"Band On The Run" is the only post Beatles album that impressed me. None of the solo albums match anything The Beatles did as a group.
He "didn't know what the seeds were" ..... LoL !!
Linda tries to hold back a smile. They knew full well lol.
There's a TH-cam video of Linda McCartney singing. It's titled Linda McCartney sings! Brace yourselves. lol
Nice video man
Terence Stamp at 1:49
Awesome fuckin video
Linda to Heather Mills..
Hahaha was that a clip of Bon Scott in there?
I don't know, 'silly love songs' is pretty good.
Wingspan? Is it from it?
Mary es su hija mas atractiva,me gusta!
whats this from?
Is the guy at 1:50 Roy Harper? Anyone know?
How is this rare? It's all over the internet
" Rare " lol
How is this rare? Did u shoot this? NO! you cannot take credit for this and it’s probably copywrited too.
This is not rare! It's great but not rare and have seen it millions of times
Quite true and in fact, any film that has been transferred to video and is easily accessible on the internet such as on TH-cam cannot, by definition, be considered rare. If it's on TH-cam it is NOT rare.
It's rare in my life and I'm so grateful it's still around because so many things are pulled now due to copyright. He's so cool to not pull this because it's super personal.
I love Paul and and Linda but to be really fair they loved this kind of thing being out there. It was who they were and are. Paul always loved anything about him to be out there for people to see. Nothing wrong with that. You can see a lot of their personal life on a doco called Wingspan where Mary interviews Paul about Wings and Linda. It's available on line on ebay and in stores. Been out for years
mary88stella1 .
I wonder if Billy Preston might have been a better keyboard player for Wings? Linda could have played maracas.
The girl is his daughter i think
Not rare, it's from Wingspan. But yes, a good video.
Who is the cute interviewer?
Linda used to cut his hair early 70s & made a terrible American dog's dinner of it.
1:21 .....that's either late '69 or early '70 (doesn't really matter) .....that may have been one of the reasons the Beatles broke up.......hey, they have personal lives too......Lennon's contributions in songwriting were on the decline as far as quality goes, George wasn't happy getting snubbed and having 1 or 2 songs on a Beatles album....Paul had many options then and maybe he made a "family decision".......he made his fortune with John, George and Ringo and are/were dear friends....but they weren't his FAMILY.
How many nostrils do u have?
can you believe the attitude to ganja? a few seeds in the post, just happened to plant them, and what, he got off the charge, or whatever. One law for the rich, another for the poor.
