His first solo Lp, always been very fond of it. At the other extreme,if I was ever at a concert where he decided to embed "Wings At The Speed of Sound", I'd bite down on a cyanide tablet.

Vote for Red Rose Speedway here too. I'd like to hear him do Single Pigeon live, and Power Cut instead of Hey Jude (have the crowd sing 'baby i love you so' over and over).. it would make such a refreshing change. |

as great as his past successes have been...i'd go with something much more recent. i'd love to hear the band play a suped up, band ready version of chaos and creation. or even memory almost full. i think a lot of his recent work is overlooked in favor of his older stuff. and don't get me wrong...his older stuff is fabulous...but by representing his newer stuff live in concert...he says his new stuff is just as important...just as vital...and just as good as his older stuff. it would make a bold statement.

Not that Macca would ever do this, but on Bowie's Heathen tour he did TWO complete albums in concert on the same night - his most recent (Heathen at the time), then Low. He said they both had the same "feel" so it felt natural to do them together. I think TOW and MAF would be great together. They both have some of the same themes.

Dragonfly on REd Rose Speedway always moved me...nice little underated macca thing. As far as live Paul stuff, I'm so tired of Jet or Band On The Run (even though I still like the album) and PUHleaseeeee let's not hear Live and Let Die another time live !!! ( if I hear it one more time I'm gonna scream bloody murder  ) INSTEAD ALL of Back To The Egg, certain things from Venus and Mars (like Rock Show and Magneto and Titanium, Single Pidgeon, stuff on Press To Play, and EVEN some Tug Of War tracks DONT LAUGH lol) should get more frequent LIVE play. |

[/quote] Wow MMM, I thought I was the only one who is irritated by Live and Let Die. Good to know. well I liked it at first, but after 30+ years now, I'm sick of it. Some songs are funny like that--still others by the Beatles collectively (or solo) no matter how many times I hear them I never get tired of them (e.g., Paperback Writer, Hey Jude, Nowhere Man, Here, There Everywhere, Michelle..etc---even Paul's Mull of Kyntire is just timeless to me--just couldnt be more perfect.) |

isnt it funny how a song like Mull of Kintyre, which is not a flashy super dooper produced song, could appeal to so many people, even becoming the biggest selling single in the UK only behind Do They Know its Christmas?(1984)??
I love it just because it does feel like youre sitting around the campfire with the guitars out ...and uh the bagpipes....ha ha (funny visual...sorry...)

It would be interesting if he had his band pick out 25 Wings/solo songs and 10 Beatle ones to see which they pick from his catalogue. I liked their pulling out Helter Skelter and I've Got A Felling on last tour!

Yeah, unfortunately though, those songs (Live and Let Die, Band on the Run etc) are his crowd-pleasers, and people like us have heard them a million times but for many it's like a once in a lifetime thing to hear those songs live.
I got a bootleg of The Doors of the 21st Century playing the entire LA Woman album front-to-back and it's groovy as heck! I would've liked to have heard Chaos And Creation In The Backyard played in full in a concert setting - there's so much in the way of dynamics that can be explored on that album.
