Wings: Band On The Run

Chris Welch, Melody Maker, 1 December 1973

"IT'S NOT A concept," says Paul McCartney, but there is a thread to Wings' newie Band On The Run. The feeling expressed throughout is one of happy, almost exhultant freedom, in which the music is open, un-pressured and eminently satisfying. It epitomises what Wings are all about. They soar sunward and revel in light and warmth.
