The poster has been rolled and features the. I’m happy with this for the standard album – it sounds great, which wasn’t the case with the earlier CD version and songs like Time To Hide and The Note You Never Wrote have definitely benefited – sounding now like clear standouts – from the remastering approach.

But demos of Silly Love Songs and She’s My Baby are far more interesting, again for showing some (aural) insight into how Paul was working. The closing instrumental demo of Warm and Beautiful is a curio that you won’t be desperate to return to, slight with an Eno-esque tone. And a (rough) demo of Let ‘Em In, the song’s magic comes from the groove so whilst it’s interesting hearing this song-sketch – particularly for McCartney’s vocalisations to block out arranging ideas – the tune doesn’t really hold anything without that slinky groove to support it.

McCartney’s two great compositions here – the enduring hits – are Silly Love Songs (also maligned, unfairly too, I reckon) and Let ‘Em In. Hard to believe, hearing it now, that this album was the subject of some fairly harsh reviews, the songwriting here is great – and it gives real credence to the idea of Wings as band, the members all contributing to the writing and in most cases to the singing. I’m surprised he didn’t rename the album Paul McCartney & Wings At The Speed of Sound however, here we go, the McCartney/Wings reissue series rolls on and here’s one of my favourites from the Wings catalogue, the group’s fifth album, Wings At The Speed of Sound. ![]()
