Wings: The Story of a Band on the Run

0 (0 ratings by Goodreads)
A Hardback by ,

A landmark account of Paul McCartneys triumphant musical reinvention in the 1970s and the rise of one of the decades most iconic bands

As the Sixties came to a close, Paul McCartney was faced with the daunting prospect of being a solo artist for the first time. Wings ascension to the top of the charts with classic albums including Band on the Run, Venus and Mars and At the Speed of Sound, along with the bands stadium-filling live shows, would prove to critics and fans that not all great acts are impossible to follow. Wings: The Story of a Band on the Run is a rousing, stereophonic celebration of the songs, collaborations and performances that would shape the soundtrack of the late 20th century.

Drawn from over 500,000 words, based on dozens of hours of interviews with McCartney and numerous key players in the bands orbit, Wings: The Story of a Band on the Run weaves together the improbable trajectory of Paul McCartney and his newly formed band (featuring co-founding members Linda McCartney and Denny Laine) across the technicolor 1970s until their dissolution in 1981.
