McCARTNEY And LENNON Reunited At Glastonbury Last Sunday

Posted on by JL

A couple of weeks ago, living beatle legend PAUL McCARTNEY celebrated
his 80th birthday and last Sunday he was the star headliner who got tens of
thousands of the sing-along crowd into ecstasy at the Glastonbury Festival.

He also surprised everybody with two giant guests, Dave Grohl and Bruce
Springsteen, who each played a couple of songs (and one as a trio) with
the imperishable King Of Melody.

My pick of the concert. The performance of Beatles song
I’ve Got A Feeling with his third guest… JOHN LENNON.

Magical moments…

Afterward, McCartney and Dave Grohl went on the run…

‘MRS. VANDEBILT’ By WINGS – 45 Years Ago…

Posted on by JL

Knockouts from the past…

27 July 2019

Today 45 years ago, on 27 July 1974 the best-selling artist ever PAUL MCCARTNEY & his WINGS hit the top spot of the albums chart in the UK with their third LP, bestseller ‘BAND ON THE RUN’. One of the highlights was/is the resistlessly catchy ‘MRS. VANDEBILT‘. The track was released as a single in Continental Europe and Australia, but weirdly not in the US and the UK.

C’mon sing along ‘Ho, Hey Ho’…

Knockouts from the past…

13 April 2019

Today 45 years ago, on 13 April 1974 ex-Beatle PAUL MCCARTNEY & his WINGS hit the top spot of the albums chart in the US with their third LP, bestseller ‘BAND ON THE RUN’. The first single from the record was JET. A scream along corker McCartney still plays live these days. The song was named after his dog, a jet-black Labrador. Here’s a live version
of that classic…
