The Story Behind: Paul McCartney and Wings - Band on the Run, Ep 227

The Story Behind: Paul McCartney and Wings - Band on the Run, Ep 227

Musicians recount the strange and unexpected story behind the making of your favorite albums. Paul McCartney was feeling left behind by his ex-bandmates' solo careers and dealing with an ever-shifting roster of players in his new band when he decided to head for the tropics of Lagos, Nigeria to record his next album. Things only got wilder from there. The gang get together to talk about Linda's high notes, stringing different songs together, and how Fela Kuti felt about the first 60s pop star to come to his homeland.
