Paul's twenty-second solo single.
Credited to "Wings"
This incarnation featuring : Paul, Linda, Denny Laine, and newchaps - Lawrence Juber and Steve Holly.
Lots of "Firsts" ...
This single was the first release for the 7th formation of Wings.
The first release of a Paul McCartney record to be on Parlophone.
The first U.K. release for Paul of a 12" single.
Although, all his official releases had an "R" prefix, and certainly looked like Parlophone catalogue numbers,
this was the first record to actually have a Parlophone logo.
The single version of the A-side is 4 minutes 15 seconds, whereas the 12" is an extended mix running to 7:14.
The B-side was the same on both formats. The 12" also has a good quality picture cover with a specially printed
old Parlophone style cardboard inner sleeve (both pictured above, but only as much as I could get into the scanner !).
The 7" single includes, "HELLO TOM 1979" on the run-out groove.
I also have a demo version of this one, as shown above.
