Denny was/is super talented as a musician and singer and should have achieved more fame than he did. In Wings, he was unfortunately overshadowed by Paul and before that, he left the Moody Blues before they really hit it big. I met him in the 90s at a Beatlefest and it was awesome!
Denny was an OK singer. Good for back ups.. And occasionally a few leads. I recently watched a youtube video of him and a band preform songs from _"Band on the run"_ sorry to say, he cant sing that good anymore. He was singing all over the place, couldn't hit notes,.. Sad they recorded that, But he was once really good!

I was at this Paul McCartney and Wings concert in San Francisco. I drove my little sister and her girlfriend from high school to see the same concert just days before in Seattle as we drove from our home in Portland Oregon, in my small sports car. And then days later I drove my brother and I again to watch it in San Francisco. I photographed both concerts with my college days 35mm camera and telephoto lens, exposing several rolls of high-speed color transparency film, in both the Seattle Kingdom with the largest indoor audience attendance in world history that night, of 70,000 fans. Then in the San Francisco Cow Palace, about a 16,000 attendance, I believe. I've uploaded the better photos into my Facebook Concert album. It's only one of over 235 albums I have in Facebook on various events in my life, my professional astronomy art, and photography, and teaching and lecturing as a university astronomy professor by midlife.
I was at University of Alaska in Fairbanks just out of my first stint in army when I bought Band on the Run. Played it for 27 yo dance partner. Didn't get a chance to see Paul intil Rosemont Chicago concert in 1989. Best of half dozen was Lambeau Field in Green Bay
@@raindogsNot only was Linda Paul's wife, but a soulmate... Doesn't matter what she looked like, 'cause as a person she was a real good Lady. She always supported Paul in any ways...They loved each other. P. S. Miss Linda so much.
@@user-wt1pe7gk7j The only reason I mentioned her looks because I replied to someone that talked about her looks (learn to read the thread.) As for her being his soulmate, I didn't know the couple intimately. Only someone that did would truly know whether that is true. Of course, celebrity couples always talk about their spouse being their soulmates, only to divorce each other a year later. You can't believe anything that the tabloids posts.
Paul was part of two pretty good bands. Wings and those other guys. Paul and Ringo still rock today and so would of John and George.... Beatles will be forever!
Great concert. You can watch the whole concert title "Rockshow". Paul does a solo on the song "Yesterday". The whole concert is a mix of Beatles songs and Paul with Wings songs. It is worth watching.
on holidays in the Caribbean somewhere, he met Dustin Hoffman and Steve McQueen and talk turned to music. Hoffman asked him could he write a song about anything, Macca replied probably. Hoffman suggested a news item current in the paper that week (the death of Pablo Picasso and his last wish and that people would drink a toast to him), this song was the result that he played to them the next day.
WOW! What a great story. The best comments are always made by music people about music. Music seems to be a filter, allowing only intelligent sensitive people in.
Simon & Garfunkel's "Richard Cory" was an unusual addition to Wings' repertoire, but it worked very well as a continuation of "Picasso's Last Words," arguably Macca's best song "snatch" since "Can You Take Me Back" from the White Album. The emphasis on acoustic guitars here may have also inspired Denny's wonderful acoustic contributions to the "London Town" album two years later, "Children Children" and "Deliver Your Children." Also, both "Picasso" and "Cory" dealt with the troubling subject of death (though Picasso died of natural causes, and Richard Cory took his own life), which, of course, Denny and Linda were to face themselves. Thank you, Denny and Linda, for your great music. Rest in peace.
Denny suena y se escucha excelente con wings,wings a tenido varios fallecidos y cada uno hacia un excelente trabajo ,cada uno era espectacular en lo que cantaban,son decisiones buenas o malas de un camino largo y es imposible tener siempre un grupo junto.Gracias a los fallecidos por haber sido parte de la música de un excelente grupo.
Had not heard that song since I used to play the album when it first came out (someone else do the math I feel old enough) anyway much to my surprise I retained a lot of the words in my memory thanks for the post.
Merry Christmas, Wings. We’re all getting Ovation acoustics. Those with the most seniority in the band get 12-strings. Those with less, 6-strings’ll do ya.
@@chrislenox1812 In that era, Ovations were THE thing. Obviously held in high regard if Wings, who could afford ANYTHING, were all playing them. I had one in the 90s and it played sweet. I felt like I’d gotten a Red Ryder, carbine action, 200-shot, range model air rifle, with a compass in the stock and this thing that tells time.
After the dissolution of the Beatles, Paul was struggling to make a brilliant return and was a huge success at WINGS. Without his brilliant support, Paul's success in the 1970s could not have been. Special thanks to Denny Laine.
Yeah I assumed when I heard it it was like The Mess, 1882, Best Friend, or Soily, a song that Paul or Denny wrote and never put on an album, only played live.
They did give credit to paul when they played, but not in this video clip? Credited Wings, not the case!!! A Paul Simon original based on an old poem.....
La mejor gira de paul.con los wings.en su mejor momento.grandes acetatos.uufff y grandes músicos y unos metales .la mejor gira de su vida .con los wings.
Obviously the top notch of talent,creativity and pro musicians....if i recall correctly i read that paul wrote this on the spot when visiting with dustin hoffman who was on location for the movie Pappilion,the news had just come out about death of pablo picasso and dustin asked if he could write a song about that.....well,yeah!

@@jakewilliams1344 me too...always sliding down your leg...i never liked the tone either, too tinney....but they probably had the best acoustic pickups back then, it was just developing
Richard Cory's a good song originally done by Simon & Garfunkel. I wonder why Wings did it? Paul Has so many of hs own songs that are great! Unless it was Laines idea to perform it. I guess he doesnt have much songs under his belt? He sings pretty good here.. Now.. I dont think he can sing at all... 🚶♂️🚶♂️🚶♂🚶

I know that Denny can't hear us anymore but we can hear Denny anytime we want.
Denny is reading you somewhere, mate. 😉
RIP Denny, and thanks for the great music.

Great comment.
I love him too. He are very bright guy.
Paul respected Denny and let him shine in Wings, goes to show he wasn’t an egotistical superstar.
He's a legend
Denny was an OK singer. Good for back ups.. And occasionally a few leads. I recently watched a youtube video of him and a band preform songs from _"Band on the run"_

Rest in Peace Denny Laine ❤
One of the best bands ever! Wings forever!

I saw this tour. Will NEVER forget it!!!!!
This was the best concert ever hands down
Wrote this after the news of Picassos' death. He was on the set of the film Papillon. Dustin Hoffman thought of Paul as a travelling minstrel.
Bought the Wings over America and these was two of my favourites.
RIP Denny
This set is a great cut from Band On The Run. Richard Cory packs a powerful lesson in it's lyrics.
"Wings Over America." One of my favorite live albums.
IIRC it's based on a poem from much earlier than S&G.
@@indy_go_blue6048 Right, written by Paul Simon .
Great to see them sing this great Paul Simon song.

Richard Cory is a Paul Simon song.

Listened to my Band On The Run 8 Track for years before it died. Love seeing Linda in these clips.
Class act seen denny and wings Cardiff Capitol 1974 awesome memories, RIP lovely man

I was just thinking the opposite. She was awful manly looking. Not feminine at all.

fare thee well Denny
Paul McCartney and Denny Laine. Don't have to say more!
Juber is a fantastic guitarist as well !
Rob Rudman That’s not Juber. That’s Jimmy McCulloch. Laurence Juber wouldn’t join for another 2 years.
Denny Lane has a great voice... Should have had more exposure.. Go now his classic
Danny was great along with Paul & Wings, very talented, Paul always picked the best.
That's beautiful.

Wings Over America
Heather Willow Wings Over America honestly is one of the best albums ever made.
My favorite live album of all time....by far...saw it at the theater when it came out.
A linda era muito gata hein
interesting this live version doesn't have john denver line RIP Denny
Yes. I prefer the he version that they put on the Wings Over America album. Perhaps they did too and that’s why they chose it!
Denny...'nuff said. :)
Denny sounds good here! Now, forget it. The only reason they allow him to sing was that he played in Wings and... It's his band 🤣
Who else cried the first time they heard this? Just me?
preciosas canciones
That's a lot of Ovation guitars.
@wildcatter63 I hate the rounded backs :/
This is from the Wings over America tour. Of course they tried to adapt to american familiarities.
Their accents, though, are still very british!

Does anyone know which model of the 12-string guitar that Paul McCartney is playing?
Who knows how the song "Picasso's last words" came about ?
Richard Cory's a good song originally done by Simon & Garfunkel. I wonder why Wings did it? Paul Has so many of hs own songs that are great!
Unless it was Laines idea to perform it. I guess he doesnt have much songs under his belt? He sings pretty good here.. Now.. I dont think he can sing at all... 🚶♂️🚶♂️🚶♂🚶
Because this American song absolutely resonates with working class life in mid-to-late 70s Britain. Next up: Sex Pistols, Clash
