Description

A detailed study of Paul McCartney's Wings on tour in the 1970s, covering every single concert from 1972 to 1980. This book draws on a wide range of primary sources, including audio and video recordings, press reviews, fan recollections, and newspaper reports, to provide a comprehensive overview of the band's touring activities during this period. The narrative is woven around an examination of Wings' recording activities in the decade, including albums such as Band on the Run (1973). The book also explores wider trends in McCartney's approach to touring, from the early gigs to the spectacular excesses of the 1976 Wings over America tour. A detailed interview with Laurence Juber, lead guitarist of Wings from 1978 until the band's break-up in 1981, adds valuable insight into the band's final years. This is the third book about Paul McCartney/Wings by Adrian Allan, a music teacher and author based in Manchester, UK.
