  • All the available footage of the final Wings concert at the Hammersmith Odeon in London, England on December 29, 1979. Part of this footage was aired for Rock For Kampuchea to raise money for the poverty-stricken Cambodia. I have compiled the best quality footage as well as the most complete available sources to present as much of this concert as possible. The McCartney archives contain this complete show, so hopefully we will see it in full sometime soon. Enjoy!

    2. Getting Closer 3:41

    I was thinking...who do you know who is a better songwriter, performer, singer, bass player and all around multi instrumentalist? It would be hard to find someone with just one of these qualities let alone all of them. And he's a nice guy, treats people well, and stays out of trouble. Good on ya Paul!

      That line-up had so much more ahead of it that it's a shame McCartney took his career into the 80's in a totally different direction. Back to the Egg was a great start with an interesting balance. I'm sure that the next Wings album would have been great as well but instead we got the more middle-of-the-road (and slick) 'Tug of War', 'Ebony and Ivory', 'Say, Say, Say' and No More Lonely Nights', for example. Not to sound like I'm ragging on those particular songs, they were disappointing to these ears, that's all. 1979/80 would definitely be the last time McCartney rocked like this on a studio album. But yeah, I know-all things must pass..

    That final edition of Wings was nearly as good as the Beatles, for real. On the Back To The Egg album, too. What a pity it wasn't to last. Had it lasted, and had John lived, Paul and him would have been the grandsegnieurs of the 1980s, each in his own right.

    @randymillhouse791 5 місяців тому +7

    My takeaway: Folks, if you play guitar, you know it rips up the tips of your fingers. If you play bass guitar, even more so. Then this guy sits behind a piano and plays it. Piano players might get callouses, but not like guitar players. Paul is a versatile musical athlete. He does this show after show.

    • @RedbarParadise-ni4cq
      @RedbarParadise-ni4cq 5 місяців тому

      that's nonsense - if you stop playing for months yeah it would rip your fingers a bit, but regular players don't deal with pain at all. there's nothing difficult about switching to a piano in the middle of a performance. and piano players wouldn't get callouses at all. the guitar is also much harsher on the fingers than the bass - steel strings on an acoustic being the worst. the callouses prevent further pain once developed, only uncalloused fingers would tear or get raw on strings. even if you tore up your fingers playing the piano would be a huge relief as opposed to carrying on with the string instrument. wrong on every level.
