Great CD
This is the McCartney CD that has all the Great songs and a few Fun ones for the Best price.


Classic compilation

All their hits are included. Wings were the band of Paul and Linda McCartney in the '70.
Recommended !.


Impressive
I really enjoy my Wings CD - I play it in my car often and I spend a lot of time driving so this CD gets a lot of play!!!!!!!.


Excellent
Paul McCartney continued on after the break up of the Fab Four and had quite a successful career as a solo artist and with Wings. I've been a big Paul McCartney fan since the Beatles came out. This compilation only covers a few of their songs and each one a gem. When Wingspan came out a couple years ago, it blew Wings Greatest Hits right out of the water. Despite that, this is still a very good compilation. Another Day is featured on this compilation, Paul's first solo single. Unfortunately the B side of this single was not included on here or on any other Paul McCartney album to date. The B side, Woman Oh Why, is on the American pressing of one of Paul's albums as a bonus track but I can't see getting this again just for one song. Maybe Mr. McCartney will put together a box set and include all the A and B sides in the set. We can only hope.


not totally a wings package--but worthwhile
" And for some reason Paul left off "Listen To What The Man Said," a 1975 Wings # 1 hit, (he did include it on later compilations). WINGS GREATEST contains' two songs that are not Wings tracks "Another Day," and "Uncle Albert. He also left off two more USA top ten hits "Helen Wheels," and the live 1977 version of "Maybe I'm Amazed-(which can only be found on the pricey "WINGS OVER AMERICA" live album). Paul must consider all 1970-1985 singles to be wings--even though technically Wings recorded from 1971-1981, for on his Wingspan collection from the late 1990s, he also mixes solo and wings tracks. Regardless, this is a worthwhile collection, there is not a "Hey Jude," or "Yesterday," in this collection, but in fairness to Paul--the 1970s were quite different from the 1960s. And Paul come in 2nd only to Elton John, for the most top 40 hits on Billbard during the 1970s.
