Wings
Paul McCartney & Wings Live Performing Bip Bop at Pavillion Montreux
In the summer of 1973, Wings was riding high on the success of their album "Red Rose Speedway," released just a few months earlier. This album marked a significant moment for Paul McCartney as it included the hit single "My Love," showcasing his pop sensibility and emotional depth. The live recording at the Pavilion in Montreux is a vibrant encapsulation of the band's energy during this period. It's fascinating to note that Wings was still relatively new on the scene, having formed in 1971, and this performance helped solidify their place in rock history. The lively setlist, including tracks like "Give Ireland Back to the Irish," speaks volumes about their commitment to blending music with meaningful messages. All in all, this concert is a treasure trove of McCartney's artistry and Wings' evolving legacy.
