Go Now - Denny Laine w/ Wings

[mimibetinis]

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I was just glued! What a performance, what power, almost BETTER that the original.

[barrigadgi]

What a great track vocals the DBS and the late JMc on guitar......superb!!!

[idle44]

Didn't Denny Laine die broke in a caravan despite him having royalties from Mull of M.and a lot of royalties from Wings.

[DeeGee823]

@idle44 Denny is still around and performing. He did go bankrupt after the Wings breakup and sold his rights to "Mull of Kintyre" to Macca.

[GertKozijn]

Sir Paul as a backgroundsinger..respect...

[samdogdamndog2]

Just bought a pristine copy of "Wings Over America" on vinyl for six bucks.  As good as I remember it, and apparently not available on cd any more. Lucky ME! Vinyl rocks better anyway.

[1beatles]

Oh Man I fucking Love This!!!!

[SPARKLEJET]

Just awesome isn't it? And RIP Linda.



[stechlym]

@SPARKLEJET and Jimmy.

[SPARKLEJET]

@stechlym Right! How could I overlook that ?

[dunskie]

Very fucking cool video.

Youtube keeping me up all damn night.

[DieHardBeatlesFan]

Happy Birthday Denny have a great day

Excellent song + video

Thanks for post + to Jim for sharing xXx

[MrGeno502]

Happy Birthday Denny !

[mgebi1]

The album version of Denny with Pauls back vocals on this song is awsome. The moody blues version was great in 60s this was great in 70s. music like this is hard to come by these days. I feel fortunate to have lived through such great decades of 'MUSIC" Heres to the real rockers and musicians!!! They will be with us forever!!

[ccaarroolliinnee1000]

paul seems to be high on those backstage scenes in the ending

[Lenjia]

Fantastic!

[famachris]

I think Paul picked Denny Lane to be in Wings because his voice is like a hybrid of George's and John's. And he's a fine singer - maybe too go to get any spotlight in the end. Say what you want about Linda, but she had a lot ahead of her. :)

[tallowmanoldies]

One of my favourite sixties songs

[MsJune54]

LOVE THIS, especially Paul & Linda's backing vocals, sure wish I could have seen Wings in concert.....Denny Laine is great....thanks for sharing

[1844phil]

This is the best version of Go Now, I've ever heard. The Beatles were great, and Paul's vocals were, too. However, sorry Paul, Denny is by far a superior vocalist and should have had a more prominent role (Vocally) in the band. Superb backing from Paul and Linda, though.

[missmanju123]

if you google "paul mccartney and wings seattle", check out the setlist for the concert june1976.

[TheFishMiester]

It was on the Album " Wings over America " !

[craigdude1965]

missmanju, I was not at the concert so it is pointless to even argue with you, but I have read many places that go now was not part of wings tour, 3 dates in june 1976@ the forum. not really that important.

[craigdude1965]

Yes Wings did tour Seattle in 1976, thats a fact, but from all the things ive read this was only preformed at the forum in California.

[missmanju123]

@craigdude1965 i find it hard to believe denny only played this song in los angeles. not in london, paris, tokyo, seattle? i'm sure he sang this song in many different cities, not just los angeles.

[craigdude1965]

This song was performed only in Los angles at the Forom, Sorry missmanju, but you didnt see him play this in Seattle.

[missmanju123]

@craigdude1965 no, denny laine was with wings from onset 1971 to 1981 with paul and linda mccartney. wings did tour in seattle as i still have my concert ticket stub saved all these years. he definitely did sing this in seattle.... i was there.

[missmanju123]

@craigdude1965 if you're talking about this actual video, no i didn't see this video in seattle. if you look at my original comment, all i said was that i saw wings perform summer of 76 at the kingdom and denny performed this song. actually 3 songs really stick out in my mind from that concert. go now, yesterday and venus and mars "rock show", and i know i'm a nerd for saving all my concert ticket stubs!

[Gooseberry51]

Love this mans voice, always did.. hope he's doing alright

[noddyneeds]

This is bloody fantastic, Wings were probably the best band ever

[olhobbler]

It does not get any better than this..Denny Laine has the voice of an angel, Paul and Linda singing background....This performance is not something easily outdone by any artist, so glad its perserved for the ages.

[jamesaziegler]

My favorite song of all time for sentimental reasons JIM ZIEGLER

[d1a9v6e5]

they don,t music like this anymore.

[missmanju123]

i remember denny singing this when paul mccartney and wings came by to play the kingdome in seattle summer of 1976. great song.....

[nyshortline]

Great song and sounds A LOT like the original (minus the brass + guitar solo). But Paul + Linda make not only a cute couple in this video but they had THE MODEL showbiz marriage. They were inseperable. And Linda looked really beautiful here.

[QueenBeatlesWings]

AWW-Stella was soo cute, and Paul looks like a wonderful father

[meadowqueen]

What film is this from? It doesn't look like Rockshow or Wings Over the World. I don't remember EVER seeing that opening clip with Denny playing the sunburst Ovation & Paul swinging Stella NOR do I remember seeing the backstage clip following Go Now and the shot of Cow Palace.

Wonderful performance from Denny on this one, thank you for sharing!

[polythenepepper]

@meadowqueen Wings Over the World

[MartinmanD28]

@meadowqueen

Anyone who loves Denny will love this! The concert is from Rockshow and was filmed during McCartney's 1976 tour, Wings Over America. It was released in 1981 and promoted as the Seattle show. Several introductions come from the Seattle performance but the following songs were taken from a Los Angeles show: Magneto & Titanium Man, Spirits of Ancient Egypt, Let 'Em In, and Soily.

Denny's lead singing performances include Spirits of Ancient Egypt, Go Now, and Time to Hide.

[stechlym]

@meadowqueen "Wings Across America"

[avlisk]

Go Now and Medicine Jar were 2 highlites from these days. It was fab, gear, and boss that Paul let the other guys have their time. A great moment in time.

[ecozombie]

brilliant video ..

[DavelovesRealMusic]

is there MORE of this concert???

[themastroiannis]

great laine song! wish mr. mccartney would have allowed it at least in a live album with wings..

[RonMazasco]

@themastroiannis it IS on Wings over America, the triple live album.

[lala5732]

Love this Moody Blues classic never seen it performed with Linda and Paul before. Very cool.

[cafeontheleftbank]

he's not only a part of the WINGS....he's a part of my life!

WINGS OVER AMERICA is one of my favourites since then!

[yorkshiretractors]

when was this 

[alanhartley]

Hammersmith Odeon 1973:- This was one of the highlites. MAGIC!!!

[laloisaac]

amazing to see the Paul & Linda background !!!!!!

[Mscoady1]

This is great!!!!

[kittyx32009]

Every time i see this video of Denny doing one of the greatest songs EVER........i feel like i'm back in the Concert venue, June 1976 !! I love this version just as much as i love the original, with the amazing Moody Blues !!

[midmodgal]

Oh wow, this is really good!

[48tflo]

Always loved this song. But still prefer the Moody Blues' version.

[oldiesfan52]

Fantastic version. Eat your heart out, Sir Paul!

[4FabBEATLES]

Laine got interviewed and asked why he quit Wings he said it was because Paul wasn't going to tour anymore he said he and Paul were still friends, but Paul says he and Laine are not friends- because Laine 'broke up the band' in a way and Paul doenst forgive easily especially after his bands all broke up so may times

interestngly enugh I think this was the best linups of Wings- McCulloch,Laine,Juber and the McCartneys

[deanajandeny65]

@4FabBEATLES Are you talking about This lineup? Because the drummer is Joe English. But you are right. I've always loved this line up too.

[twistedsistaqteu]

i feel sorry for denny, he got shit on big time by mcCartney. for everyone who thinks macca is this kind of saint, its all bs

[lrsmith]

Jimmy McCullogh was brilliant......RIP

[GuthrieThomas]

This Cat is one of the Greats..Guthrie Thomas

[GuthrieThomas]

This Cat is one of the Greats..Guthrie Thomas

[XxpauldadudexX]

Denny laine was brill'and CRIMINALLY underused in wings!

[willwak]

@XxpauldadudexX

I saw Denny play with Wings and his Go Now was the highlight of the night. I agree that he was under used.....but that is what you get when you are playing with a massive ego. McCartney was a bit threatened by Denny and he side lined him because of it. He didn't want another Lennon on his back and Denny was big enough to be that albatross.....McCartney couldn't handle that.

[Francential]

Great vid.

[TheMoonlightFever]

Thank you for posting

[stellalunavaladez10]

Love this song! Paul & Linda great back up!!! Denny Laine We Love You! Just seems like yesterday!!!!! Denny sounds just like the original recording w/Moody Blues! Love it!!!!!!!!

[Veekator]

I saw them in Seattle we drove up from Portland and it was amazing

Priceless....

[xander7ful]

@TheBeatlesfan1964 I love the beginning of the footage where Paul is goofing around with his daughter.

[Doleafol]

Does anybody know if Denny Laine and Paul McCartney had a falling out? Was that the ultimate reason that Wings broke up? If they did, what was the issue? Does anyone know? In the past twenty or so years, Paul has made little mention of Denny Laine. He speaks about John and George, of course. But, Paul spent 10 years in a band with Denny. Today, you'd never know it.

[pereyras1]

I guess you could call it that, if memory serves, Denny wanted to continue touring but PM wanted to stick to the studio..but then who knows.....

[TheMoonlightFever]

@Doleafol I wish they would team back up and tour.

[PaulMcCartneyHD]

i love song!! :D

[drummss]

Great tune. Denny sounds great as do backup singers...lol. Horns are cool too!!

[elmakartany]

I love this song .

[Heidibear76]

Wow! The best version!

[pitspro]

what a pity Denny Laine was always overshadowed so much in WINGS ...

[Heidibear76]

would have been worse had he never joined Wings right? Then what? No one would of ever knew of him outside of the Moody Blues. Stop your whining....little bitch.

[pitspro]

not sure whether your nick name is "little bitch" or whether you are referring to me as "littel bitch" ... either way, it's a strange expression in light of what you are saying ...

[Heidibear76]

Fuck you...

[strickkarl]

nice backup singers

[lanceloz]

quite a better version than the moody blues. i love the atmosphere of the video. paul and linda at the top.

[PaulMcCartneyHD]

great great great chorus of Paul and linda!

[mj575]

this is my favorite version....w/ WINGS perfect!!!

[lumpytrousers]

@mj575 U got it. This is when Wings was WINGS!

[brainvisionfilms]

denny lane an the diplomats to the beatles bizzare

[davidcononie]

I liked how he was playing that honky tonky sounding southern bayou type guitar, neat for an englishman

This is Denny Laine's masterpiece. So wonderful that he got to perform it when he was with Wings.
