This song brings fond memory, Rawdon in the summer with our little hanging out place for dancing with...yes girls..I was around 14 years old..Great memories. TY Wings. Plus it is a very entertaining song.
2:01-2:03 John Lennon by the nose in the audience & the "2 of Us" movie was a true story that Paul went to see John @ the Dakota Apartment in Manhattan, N.Y. in the early 1970's.
This is one of my favorite songs. But I miss seeing Linda with Paul where ever he is playing at. She was the best thing that ever happened to him. Thanks for posting this classic rock song.
This is one of those rare songs, it seems, that's so much better live than studio. When it gets like this the artist should drop the old version in favor of the best one. This is a party rock and roll song that's mean't to played loud and wild.
This is one of my favorite Paul McCartney songs. It is pure rock & roll. Im a big fan of the Beatles, and Paul was allways my favorite. He is the BEST!!!
@pilesovinyl Hehe. They were pretty poor substitutes for Lennon/McCartney. Funny how they both insisted on using their musically incompetent wives as their new partners. They went from the greatest musical partnership in the world to the strangest.
Paul needs to come out with some new REAL music! I can't take this Justin Bieber, Taylor Swift, Lil Wayne and Miley Cyrus crap! I want REAL MUSIC LIKE THIS! Damn it sucks being 15 in this dumb generation!
I thought I had posted a comment on this song.But who knows! Saw him in concert in '76 & they sounded much better than this! I was blown away by the first laser light show, while they were singing Live & Let Die! Almost got crushed at this concert, someone opened one door and everyone went for it. They didn't even take our tickets, & the place was so over crowded, was lucky to find a seat, & didn't dare move. In '79, the same thing happened @the Who concert, where people were trampled to death!
What's wrong with Benny Lane? I finally picked up a decent UK copy of this on vinyl to replace my original Capitol release, much better mix and not so bass heavy. Wings Over America rocks!!!
@leonardoreyesgomez Denny Laine wasn't a bad musician he was with the Moody Blues then co-wrote many Wings songs with paul- and he was the only WIngs member besides Linda to stay faithful with the band until the breakup unlike the others..Denny was a nice guy and still is- he even arranged a Wings reunion
@JohnLennon1983 Notice how it's always the Lennon fans who have to point out the fact that *both* John and Paul were great? Why do we recognize something that many Macca fans can't?
@lennonista9 That is a good point. I do like Lennon a little more then Paul, but I reconize Paul and his music just as much. I only like Lennon more for his personality.
@lennonista9 Thats bullshit. Lennon fans are ignorant in their ways always saying Paul only wrote light and whimsical songs. Paul fans are just sick of how pretentious Lennon fans are.
Paul is singing about the same thing Donovan is singing about in, "Mellow Yellow, when he sings "Electrical banana, is gonna be a sudden craze," as I'm sure you know, but some others may not.
McCartney still rocks just listen to "Nod Your Head". It's got a bit of "I'm The Walrus", "Helter Skelter" and "Live And Let Die". Great to see Concord Records promoting it as a music video clip on youtube [Video #4] featuring McCartney and a host of 20-something babes. I friggin love his latest LP after one or two times playing it I'm addicted to it. Thanks for the MEMORY ALMOST FULL album.

Check out the time change late in the song: Drummer Joe English was solid as a rock and Jimmy McCulloch could play a smokin' slide guitar. (Gibson SG)
I think Jimmy died of an O.D. around when the London Town album came out and Joe left Wings around then too.
