About Wings

This band was a successful endeavour for ex-Beatle [a=Paul McCartney]. From its inception in late 1971 the line-up of “Wings” often changed over the years, but retained its core members:
• [a=Denny Laine] (formerly of [a266422]) on guitar and vocals
• [a=Linda McCartney] on keyboards and vocals
• Paul McCartney on guitar and vocals.
Other members of the band included drummer [a=Denny Seiwell] (1971-1973), ex-[a=Spooky Tooth] guitarist [a=Henry McCullough] (1972-1973), blues guitarist [a=Jimmy McCulloch] (1974-1977), drummer [a=Geoff Britton] (1974), drummer [a=Joe English] (1975-1977), guitarist [a=Laurence Juber] and drummer [url=http://www.discogs.com/artist/Steve+Holly+(2)]Steve Holly[/url] (both 1978-1979).

Whilst “Wings” was primarily McCartney’s band (for a while playing under the moniker “Paul McCartney & Wings”), it was truly a collaborative effort, with all members of the band sharing a hand in songwriting and vocals – with Laine even taking lead vocals from time to time.
