https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/London_Town_(Wings_album)

I used to hate this album but it has grown on me over the years.

Once this and Red Rose Speedway and Band on the Run are out of the way, we'll have done every Wings album and have total knowledge of the band the Beatles could only aspire to be.

My current ranking of Wings studio albums is:

Venus and Mars
Back to the Egg.
Band on the Run
London Town
Wings at the Speed of Sound
Wildlife
Red Rose Speedway

I'm looking forward to this.

It's in my 'to do' pile!




I'm out next weekend.

We'll always have Paris London tomorrow.

I don't do lists.

But…

Wildlife
Wings Over America
Venus and Mars*
Back to the Egg**
Wings At The Speed of Sound.

Heard but not rated:
Band on the Run

Not Heard but have a copy:
London Town
Red Rose Speedway

Spoiler:

* I think I need to listen to this again.
** I think Old Siam Sir is their best song.

What about 9 o'clock tomorrow night?

Of course! It's not like I've got anything better to do!

Incidentally before I forget, Girlschool



Took their name off the B side to Mull Of Kintyre.

Or was it a double A side?

35 minutes to go.

Tell all your friends.

They can do their squats while they're listening.

I've got it warming up the turntable, It takes 20 minutes or so to reach peak pitch stability!



Not that I can actually hear any difference

It's started!

Track 1 - London Town.

It's on!

"Purple afternoon."

Goof pills.

This is a very odd track. It's got one of the greatest melody's Macca's ever written but the lyrics are distracted, depressive and seem aimless.

Sorry, I was too busy listening to a cover of Britney Spears cover by Kedr livanskiy.

"Out of work again, the actor entertains his wife with the same old stories of his ordinary life."

This is a bit... bit.. McCartneyish.

Rozzer.

Interesting derivation that.

Possibly.

I do feel this song captures the feel of the entire album. Ennui seems to have taken a grip upon Macca.

Duelling guitars.

I believe they're played by Paul and Denny, as Jimmy had gone, by this point.
