A Thursday surprise for you guys! Everybody said we had to hit the live version of this and we wanted to jump on it quick for you all! Enjoy, and see you tomorrow!! 🙌🏻🔥
I was lucky enough to see Wings Over America when it was in Denver. And the icing on the cake was that Paul and Linda autographed a watercolor painting that i did of them. Not only their signatures, but they took the time to add doodles to it. One of the best days of my life! I even made the front page of my local hometown paper.
This song was written byPaul McCartney about his wife Linda McCartney, who died of cancer after 29 years of marriage. Their daughter Stella McCartney, the fashion designer, plays this song at the end her runway shows in memory of her mother and for her father who is usually in the front row. So very touching. Pass the tissues...😓
Yes, but not at the time she was still alive end very healthy at the time it was in the beginning of their relation Lynda is playing keyboard in that show
McCartney in his heyday was one of the best Rock singers of all time! He could go from soft crooning to full throttle shouting in an instant, always pitch perfect, with an incredible range and versatility. Only Bowie came close.
No doubt. Just listen to Long Tall Sally, I'm Down, or Helter Skelter from his Beatle days and then Jet, Live and Let Die, Soily, Hi Hi Hi, Beware My Love and Junior's Farm for some Wings examples.
I went to literally hundreds of concerts all through the 70s, but this exact concert (Seattle, King Dome) is one of three greatest I ever witnessed (along with Stones in 1972 and The Who in 1975/76, who played here at both the beginning and end of their tour). A lot of that was probably the emotional impact of standing 20 feet from Paul McCartney, but Wings Over America proves it was an amazing show.
On the Beatles song "Oh darling", Paul purposely strained his vocal chords to get the "raspy" sound. On this song, its because it was recorded towards the end of a massive world tour (I went to the show in Los Angeles). They had done like 50 shows before the one recorded for Wings Over America.
Side note: "Oh, Darlin' was the very last song that Paul and John collaborated on. After John put in the backing vocals he left the studio, never to return as a Beatle.
And Paul is such a humble, humble man! Just a REAL person, in person. He isn't a "Do you KNOW WHO I AM?!" He's just another guy at the party! A very enjoyable, down to earth person!
In my most humble opinion Paul McCartney is an "S" tier singer, song writer, performer, and all around good human. Ringo Starr remains my favorite Beatle because I love his talent and sense of humor but Sir Paul is off the charts and will always put a smile on my face.
Great time keeper; true. I particularly like his Ringoisms. Lennon was a big fan too. Ringoisms as Lennon called them refers to Ringo's nonchalant way of stating something supposedly obvious in an odd phrasing. More than a few Ringoisms became song titles, such as 'A hard days night' and 'Tomorrow never knows'.
I got to meet Ringo in 2005 or so, I was a NYC music writer for a newspaper called ''The Village Voice'', after what was a small showcase set at a small club called The Bottom Line.(encore was ''With a Little Help From My Friends'' with his god-daughter Norah Jones) there was a meet and greet, and to this day, I'lll cherish Ringo shaking my hand and saying "Andrew''!
@@lisasmithline1386 Cool. Did not know that. Love the song but personally, I think the worst piano solo ever... Maybe I just don't get it. Hmmm😬 Prefer the Tom Petty version just so I don't have to listen to that solo.
Greatest singer/songwriter in HISTORY! I saw Sir Paul this year ( 2022) 2 weeks before he turned 80….stayed on stage for almost 3 hours! If I never see another concert, IM GOOD!!
A good one to react to would be The Beatles "Don't Let Me Down", performed on a roof. Their last live performance together. The great Billy Preston on keyboards.
The 45rpm studio single "Junior's Farm" that McCartney and Wings released in the mid 70's is one of their greatest rockers, despite it seldom getting airplay anymore.
Paul had it all: the whole world was in LOVE with him. His talent, voice and looks. What a man. And he sings about Linda, his wife and the love of his life. The Band on the Run album is definitely worth the listen. My favorite is Jet
If I remember correctly, this live version was actually the one that was a hit, more than the album version ever was. (I'm an old dude, so I remember this s**t! lol)
Correct. The studio version wasn't actually released as a single, so it never even had a chance to chart. The live version was released as a single years later to promote the Wings Over America album, and that's what blew up.
The one and only Sir Paul. Glad you did this. Paul could scream if he wanted. Check out Oh Darling from Beatle's Abbey Road or Helter Skelter ftom the white album.
Okay, the story about "Twist and Shout" is off a bit. The fact is, singing that song tore up Lennon's voice so badly that when they performed that song, they always left that song for the last one, because Lennon couldn't sing after that.
Well, and the specific recording that closes out the Please Please Me album was saved at the end of the session exactly because of what Alex said -- he'd come into the studio with a head cold and had been sucking on cough drops the entire day. The song on the album they recorded right before "Twist And Shout" was their cover of the Shirelle's "Baby It's You", and you can hear John's raspiness on that vocal as well, which gives that song a great character. That rasp is not as prominent in his lead vocals on "Anna", which was recorded during the afternoon session (they took a dinner break and then recorded Ringo's version of "Boys" and George's version of "Chains", likely to give John's voice a rest).
The Applesauce Report: it has always been clear to me that all of the Beatles had head colds during those recordings; I'm 52, but I remember thinking as a child that John and George in particular sounded stuffy.
The raw emotion in the voice is what struck me as different and better. Many people never heard the studio and just can't warm to it as much. That whole live album is killer.
Joe Cocker!!! He did a cover of "With a Little Help From My Friends" at Woodstock that is absolutely one of the most iconic live rock performances ever. Even his live performances of the song in his later years is still quite remarkable.
I went to this concert here in San Fran....still have the program. Denny Lane was his guitarist, from the OLD Moody Blues. My first concert that had a laser light show... a great show.
@@HamiltonRb I think that was considered a double A side. Hey Jude/Revolution. They had two other double A side singles: Paperback Writer/Rain, and Penny Lane/Strawberry Fields Forever.
@@loosilu Don't forget I want to hold your hand, and the B side is I saw her standing there. McCartney later on had a pretty good A-B combo with Band on the Run & nineteen hundred and eighty five too. When you have as many hits as they had, it is no surprise that a single would have two hits
Correct, they recorded all the tracks on their first album in one day and by the time they got to Twist and Shout John's throat was bleeding with the strain. Whole album in one day! That is the first UK album.
Paul was at his vocal peak during the Wings era. This song was actually mid-concert if memory serves correctly. The Wings Over America tour is top 10 of any era IMO. You boys need to hit some of Paul’s bangers from this tour. The opening of Venus & Mars/Rock Show/ Jet is a MUST! This is how he opened the concerts then. If you want to hit the studio version first I would recommend “Jet“ from the Band on the Run album which was the Wings best. Joe English was the drummer, very talented including vocals. Jimmy McCullough on lead guitar. He was fantastic and tragically died from a drug overdose not long after this tour.
Check out the album “Band on the run”. The title track, “Jet”, and “Let me roll it” for sure. There’s a good live version of “Let me roll it”. Another good live song is “Rock show”. Cheers!
As long as we're talking live stuff, just to be a bee in your bonnet... you guys gotta, GOTSTA, do Bob Seger "Live Bullet." It's a full album experience, period. You will not be disappointed. Throw it on Patreon. I'll risk my job to watch it right afterward. And I know I'm not the only fan of you guys who's asking for this one. DO IT.
@@j.j.4150 I love UFO, so it's likely they'd like it too. But Bullet is iconic. I don't think it's overrated at all, but hey, these are all opinions. It's all good, brother :-)
Was incredibly lucky to see Paul on his 1989 tour. He played more than 2 Beatles songs live for the first time since they broke up. Actually he played between 15 to 17 BEATLES SONGS throughout the tour. More than amazed and still my favorite concert of all time.
Jimmy McCulloch played lead guitar on this tour. He was (RIP way too young) one of the best guitar players of his time. Wings was lucky to have him for the short time they did.
My older brother (RIP Barry) bought tickets to see this tour in Denver. Then won a pair of tickets from now defunct Denver station KXKX. He gave me his nosebleed seats, and he had floor seats about ten rows back. It was a terrific night.
Paul has me in tears with the emotion he evokes with this song and also knowing it’s him with his wife in Wings but that she passed years later from cancer.
When I was a kid any Friday that I wasn't staying over at a friend's place for the weekend was full Wings Over America day (it's a triple and runs about 2 hours total) - there are very few song on there that I can even bear to listen to the studio versions of because they fall so flat by comparison, so really glad you hit this one!
Was thrilled to be able to see Paul McCartney live in concert twice. Once with Wings in 1990 in Worcester, MA. and at Fenway Park 2009 in Boston. An absolute LIVING LEGEND, and still putting out new music at the age of 78.
This song was, of course, written for Linda. After they were married, the only time they were apart was when Paul was arrested for possession of weed, and spent 9 days in jail in Japan.
That was when the Japanese authorities discovered that the fingerprints of the man currently playing the role of Paul McCartney did not match those of original Paul from the early 1960's, and the UK government was forced to intervene behind the scenes as a matter of national security.
Since you are leaving a comment about Linda and Paul never being separated, these guys might not know that she died of breast cancer a number of years ago. Their relationship really seemed like a very solid love story. No matter how much some of the fans loved to blame both Linda and Yoko for having a role in breaking up the Beatles (something I don’t ascribe to) both of those relationships seemed really deep. So sad that Paul lost Linda and Yoko lost John.
I have seen Paul 3 times in concert. In did this song late in the concert. Always perfect. He is so good. The last concert I saw he sat up on right side at the piano. I was seated up and close to him. Watching this I have never forgotten.
OK...since you asked for live versions, you might want to start with KATMANDU from ‘Live’ Bullet/Bob Seger and the Silver Bullet Band. From Wikipedia: ‘Live’ Bullet is a live album by American rock band Bob Seger & the Silver Bullet Band, released in April 1976. It was recorded at Cobo Hall in Detroit, Michigan, during the heyday of that arena's time as an important rock concert venue. The album is credited, along with Night Moves, with launching Seger's mainstream popularity.
Welcome to my world of music, 10yrs old in 1969 to 20 yrs old 1979 , the best decade of music which just prepared me for the 80's . I think my age group have been blessed with truly the best music has to offer . I saw Wings live they were impressive , McCartney , genius .
A Thursday surprise for you guys! Everybody said we had to hit the live version of this and we wanted to jump on it quick for you all! Enjoy, and see you tomorrow!! 🙌🏻🔥
Great surprise! Thnx for doing this, the live version deserves to be recognized too 👏🏻 🎶
Live and Let Die live version will blow you out of your chairs!🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
The Faces version is great as well..
Nice, but Im still waiting on my Couldnt Stand The Weather by SRV. C'mon now fellas :)
Love it, thanks fellas! He was singing it to Linda who was on stage with him.
I was lucky enough to see Wings Over America when it was in Denver. And the icing on the cake was that Paul and Linda autographed a watercolor painting that i did of them. Not only their signatures, but they took the time to add doodles to it. One of the best days of my life! I even made the front page of my local hometown paper.
I was at the Denver concert as well. Phenominal
omg how awesome - would love to see it ~
I saw this tour at the Forum in Los Angeles
Pics, please! :)
Kelly, if you are on Instagram, maybe you could share it on there?
This song was written byPaul McCartney about his wife Linda McCartney, who died of cancer after 29 years of marriage. Their daughter Stella McCartney, the fashion designer, plays this song at the end her runway shows in memory of her mother and for her father who is usually in the front row. So very touching. Pass the tissues...😓
They were married in 1969 and the song was released in 1970. He wrote it for her…One of the great love songs of all time. ♥️
Yes, but not at the time she was still alive end very healthy at the time it was in the beginning of their relation Lynda is playing keyboard in that show
McCartney in his heyday was one of the best Rock singers of all time! He could go from soft crooning to full throttle shouting in an instant, always pitch perfect, with an incredible range and versatility. Only Bowie came close.
No doubt. Just listen to Long Tall Sally, I'm Down, or Helter Skelter from his Beatle days and then Jet, Live and Let Die, Soily, Hi Hi Hi, Beware My Love and Junior's Farm for some Wings examples.
Your description reminds me of Greg Lake.
1977 RELEASED ,,, 70s bands most of the time sounded better LIVE
IDK. Bono and Freddie are pretty good.
But not close to Lennon.
"Band On The Run"
"Live And Let Die"
Thanks Andy and Alex, I really appreciate what and how you do what you do❤
OOhhh both GREAT songs
Band on the Run, Jet and Live and let Die are must listen to songs by Wings.
@@obijon7283 oh forgot about "Jet"
Yes, a great song!
Yes by all means do those 2 songs.
Both well worth doing as well as Jet
Paul's delivery is such a friggin masterclass in performance/control that it almost obscures what a phenomenal songwriter he is.
Beautifully said.
@@TheDivayenta Thank you.
As long as you have Wings Over America on, Venus and Mars/Rockshow/Jet is one of the all-time great concert openers...
No doubt. "Rockshow" is my favorite concert film. "Beware My Love" and "Soily" are also great bangers from that tour.
I went to literally hundreds of concerts all through the 70s, but this exact concert (Seattle, King Dome) is one of three greatest I ever witnessed (along with Stones in 1972 and The Who in 1975/76, who played here at both the beginning and end of their tour). A lot of that was probably the emotional impact of standing 20 feet from Paul McCartney, but Wings Over America proves it was an amazing show.
Bill.....maybe the best!!!!!
Just do the whole album on Patreon, it’s one of the best live albums of the 70s.
Love ROCK SHOW!

I love when he’s all raspy
Side note: "Oh, Darlin' was the very last song that Paul and John collaborated on. After John put in the backing vocals he left the studio, never to return as a Beatle.
Yes, Oh Darling is one of my favorite songs precisely because of Paul's voice on it.
Still my all-time favorite song!!!!

Ringoisms as Lennon called them refers to Ringo's nonchalant way of stating something supposedly obvious in an odd phrasing. More than a few Ringoisms became song titles, such as 'A hard days night' and 'Tomorrow never knows'.
Roger Taylor thinks Ringo is such an underrated drummer.....I agree with him

@@knowwhere3220 nice share brother Andrew 👍
The late great Jimmy McCulloch on Lead Guitar. Passed on just 3 years after this recording. Denny Laine played Bass when Paul was on Piano.
Jimmy actually played Woodstock as part of Mad Dogs and Englishman, wasn't it?
I know he's in the film.
I never knew that, cool!
Yeah, at the age of 26. He was also an impressive presence on 'Something in the Air, by Thunderclap Newman.
Denny Laine being prominent in the early Moody Blues song 'Go Now'.
@@lisasmithline1386 Cool. Did not know that.
Love the song but personally, I think the worst piano solo ever...
Maybe I just don't get it. Hmmm😬
Prefer the Tom Petty version just so I don't have to listen to that solo.
Dont you just love this song? As a younger person, I thought the lyrics were, "baby, I'm amazed." Anybody else?
Baby still works :)
It works either way. 👍
Yep
Live, I think he sings it both ways.
Love it!😃
Wings Over America is one of the greatest live albums ever made.
Still one of the finest songs ever written.
A long with listen to What the man says
Check out Band on the run, or Jet, a couple of Paul McCartney & Wings gems...
Is this how they teach you to write song titles?
Greatest singer/songwriter in HISTORY! I saw Sir Paul this year ( 2022) 2 weeks before he turned 80….stayed on stage for almost 3 hours! If I never see another concert, IM GOOD!!
A good one to react to would be The Beatles "Don't Let Me Down", performed on a roof. Their last live performance together. The great Billy Preston on keyboards.
Excellent shout, iconic footage of the Beatles bringing London to a standstill.🥂😄
Yes!!
Yes, that would be a very good one to react to.
Excellent idea! 😎
@Vincent Schmitt Another one of my favorites!
These young cats are a crack up. Listening to my music and freaking! This is my old stuff bubbles
His vocals -at the end in particular- are stupendous. It's got both power and texture. It's the perfect Rock Ballad.
The 45rpm studio single "Junior's Farm" that McCartney and Wings released in the mid 70's is one of their greatest rockers, despite it seldom getting airplay anymore.
My favorite Wings song.
Definitely check out “Junior’s Farm”
You won’t be disappointed
@@loosilu Same here.
Junior's Farm rocks, but so does 1985 and Let Me Roll It.
Wow! Almost forgot that one! Sooooo underplayed. Great tune!
how can you not marvel at his voice... at his performance
Great question!
Paul was always able to scream, growl & sing sweetly & hit those high notes. He has an amazingly versatile voice.
it's rare that a live version is SO MUCH better than the studio version...Thank you Paul!
So powerful, especially when you remember the woman he is singing to, Linda McCartney, is on stage with him (help me sing my songs), really beautiful.
Paul had it all: the whole world was in LOVE with him. His talent, voice and looks. What a man. And he sings about Linda, his wife and the love of his life. The Band on the Run album is definitely worth the listen. My favorite is Jet

Lol I’m almost 20 and this is the version I’ve always heard on the radio.
@@thegreatskinkpriest8104 Cool!
Paul is playing the piano live too.
And it's Jimmy McCulloch giving that guitar solo a little more bite
Yep.
McCartney was hitting those same vocal fry tones in “Helter Skelter”.
I agree with your intent, but it's not vocal frying. Vocal frying is a deliberate, annoying affectation that needs to go away.
The raw McCartney voice was also featured on Lady Madonna and Oh Darlin’.
The one and only Sir Paul. Glad you did this. Paul could scream if he wanted. Check out Oh Darling from Beatle's Abbey Road or Helter Skelter ftom the white album.
They did it on patreon!
The people who disliked this are just wrong 🤷♀️
There’s only 30 of them so far. 🤣🤣🤣
They are worthless
Paul McCartney and the Wings - Live and Let Die - Uncle Albert - Band on the Run
That's the way to do it..studio version first, then the live. Nice system.😎
Okay, the story about "Twist and Shout" is off a bit. The fact is, singing that song tore up Lennon's voice so badly that when they performed that song, they always left that song for the last one, because Lennon couldn't sing after that.

Going back to those days, they should check out Paul's vocals on "Long Tall Sally".
@@bradparnell614 "I'm Down"

Absolutely agree!

@@allisonreed7682 Agree.

Wings Over America/World Tour was Jimmy McCulloch on lead guitar.
Hah!! You tried to fool me on a Thursday, but I had my whiskey in hand already! So there!
Yep, Lennon sings Twist and Shout.

Great call, I need to listen to that right now, it’s been a while.
I love that song even if it makes me sad somehow...
Gives me the chills in a good way, EVERY TIME.
One of the few times I prefer the live version over the studio cut. Same thing with "Coming Up"
I've never heard the studio version of Coming Up.
@@sallyphillips9175 Look it up on TH-cam. It's quite different
Goosebumps every time Pauls growling singing is just SO amazing
Check out the album “Band on the run”. The title track, “Jet”, and “Let me roll it” for sure. There’s a good live version of “Let me roll it”. Another good live song is “Rock show”. Cheers!
Band on the run. Such a great album. There's not a filler song on it. "Jet" would be my first pick, although the title track was the bigger hit.
3 yrs ago went to Paul McCartney concert & even though he couldn’t do the high notes anymore he was still spectacular absolutely brilliant show
A classic and wonderfully performed mid-tempo rock ballad from WINGS!!! Paul McCartney is the ultimate songwriter/performer! :)
As long as we're talking live stuff, just to be a bee in your bonnet... you guys gotta, GOTSTA, do Bob Seger "Live Bullet." It's a full album experience, period. You will not be disappointed. Throw it on Patreon. I'll risk my job to watch it right afterward. And I know I'm not the only fan of you guys who's asking for this one. DO IT.

No one rips his voice & screams like Sir Paul & still have the voice of an Angel
Was incredibly lucky to see Paul on his 1989 tour. He played more than 2 Beatles songs live for the first time since they broke up. Actually he played between 15 to 17 BEATLES SONGS throughout the tour. More than amazed and still my favorite concert of all time.
Live version takes its time and delivers. Emotional and kicks ass.
Ringo Star - Photograph - It don't come easy - You're sixteen
This is so much better than the studio version. Thanks for getting to it. I was one of the many who requested it.
Love seeing your reactions to everything!
Jimmy McCulloch played lead guitar on this tour. He was (RIP way too young) one of the best guitar players of his time. Wings was lucky to have him for the short time they did.
McCulloch is a legend
I am a fan of his Wings songs. Wino Junko and Medicine Jar.
Yes indeed. .....Jimmy McCulloch was an Amazing Guitarist. ......Loved his guitar style.....He was Awesome.
I’ve seen him 4 times. No one better live! No lip syncing, no auto tune. So appreciate how you are open to all music genres!
Sometimes the live song is the only one most people have heard, like with Cheap Trick, want you to want me.
Yeah... that album was most peoples first exposure to Cheap Trick... so it makes sense to listen to it first.
But that live version is *the* one to hear! as the studio v of Want You.. is just a milquetoast tintype parlor tune by comparison.
California Man!
Always treat yourself to the live cuts after the studio - you have to know what's in the box before you can appreciate what's outside of it.
Happy Thursday everyone and @Andy &Alex
"Band on the Run" is a must gents. Wonderful song.
Great that you guys got to this so quick! I was there when this was recorded, one of the best shows ever, and I saw just about everyone in the 70s.
One of THE best live albums of the 70s. The peak of Paul’s work with his best Wings line-up. Amazing.
Paul and Linda were an amazing love story. Married 29 years at the time of her death and spent less than one week apart from each other.
In the dictionary under the word legend is a picture of Paul McCartney!! The man is AMAZING!
You like great live performances. Time to revisit Chicago and their performance of 25 or 6 to 4 live at Tanglewood. I believe it is 1970.
That's a killer performance. Terry Kath is just on fire, whipping the band along at breakneck pace. Definitely "S" tier.
More Chicago! "Free is a banger!"
It was 1 of the 1st songs of the 1970s
My older brother (RIP Barry) bought tickets to see this tour in Denver. Then won a pair of tickets from now defunct Denver station KXKX. He gave me his nosebleed seats, and he had floor seats about ten rows back. It was a terrific night.
Next, do "Live And Let Die" by Paul McCartney And The Wings and then watch the Bond Movie!
Yes! Great song👍
What are you some sort of dooms day machine boy?
@@d-rock5235 What are you laughing at smart ass! And his brother-in-law Billy Bob will catch him! Great Movie and the best bond song for sure!
Paul has me in tears with the emotion he evokes with this song and also knowing it’s him with his wife in Wings but that she passed years later from cancer.
When I was a kid any Friday that I wasn't staying over at a friend's place for the weekend was full Wings Over America day (it's a triple and runs about 2 hours total) - there are very few song on there that I can even bear to listen to the studio versions of because they fall so flat by comparison, so really glad you hit this one!
One of my favorites! I have all my dad's Beatles, Wings and Elton John vinyls! I feel blessed and honored to have them!
Beautiful love song...
I love the way he's so real. More captivating than a no-flaw delivery.
Yeah, this slays the (great) studio version. Paul’s singing is next level. Drums and guitar are excellent.
Was thrilled to be able to see Paul McCartney live in concert twice.
Once with Wings in 1990 in Worcester, MA. and at Fenway Park 2009 in Boston.
An absolute LIVING LEGEND, and still putting out new music at the age of 78.
This is great! Pls check out Band On the Run next
Just a review of the cover could make up a video.
I love how in the live version the notes hang and ring so clear and thick, how the piano notes hit at almost off time but make a huge difference.
They were so good live back in the day. We didn’t have to wear masks and shared joints.
Put some anti bac gel on the end of it, and share with someone in your bubble, x

Bonus @Andy & Alex day! 🙌🏻 Seeing this song performed in concert was truly one of the best live music moments of my entire life! 🎹🎸
"Silly Love Songs" live (Rockshow) really showcases Macca talent ... effortless killer bass line and just nailing it all the way through
This live version is the best one. So cleanly done and rockin'
Written for his wife Linda who got him through the Beatles Break up.
"Got him through"? Paul and the others welcomed the breakup; it's just that none of them really wanted to be the first to say it.
@@lisasmithline1386 "I'm a Lonely Man who's in the Middle of Something He doesn't really Understand"
This live version is magic. Love it.
Damn this is such a sweet love song. Really heartfelt. Everyone should have that kind of love. Thanks, gents!
Paul hit the high notes perfectly!
This song was, of course, written for Linda. After they were married, the only time they were apart was when Paul was arrested for possession of weed, and spent 9 days in jail in Japan.
That was when the Japanese authorities discovered that the fingerprints of the man currently playing the role of Paul McCartney did not match those of original Paul from the early 1960's, and the UK government was forced to intervene behind the scenes as a matter of national security.

Since you are leaving a comment about Linda and Paul never being separated, these guys might not know that she died of breast cancer a number of years ago. Their relationship really seemed like a very solid love story. No matter how much some of the fans loved to blame both Linda and Yoko for having a role in breaking up the Beatles (something I don’t ascribe to) both of those relationships seemed really deep. So sad that Paul lost Linda and Yoko lost John.
Everyone seems to know the story about them…🤣🤣🤣
Who could listen to this over the decades - it just keeps getting better!
"Jet" is a screamer from Paul McCartney with Wings.
I have seen Paul 3 times in concert. In did this song late in the concert. Always perfect. He is so good. The last concert I saw he sat up on right side at the piano. I was seated up and close to him. Watching this I have never forgotten.
OK...since you asked for live versions, you might want to start with KATMANDU from ‘Live’ Bullet/Bob Seger and the Silver Bullet Band. From Wikipedia: ‘Live’ Bullet is a live album by American rock band Bob Seger & the Silver Bullet Band, released in April 1976. It was recorded at Cobo Hall in Detroit, Michigan, during the heyday of that arena's time as an important rock concert venue. The album is credited, along with Night Moves, with launching Seger's mainstream popularity.
Welcome to my world of music, 10yrs old in 1969 to 20 yrs old 1979 , the best decade of music which just prepared me for the 80's . I think my age group have been blessed with truly the best music has to offer . I saw Wings live they were impressive , McCartney , genius .
