Oh! Thank you so much for being such an amazing fan of my music Maizie🙏🤠. I hope you never stop being a fan and also stop listening to my songs🎶. Well could you kindly tell me how long you've been a fan my music???

Wow!!! You actually got a response from Denny Laine!!! Truly awesome!!!

@@dennylaine8735 You are truly awesome Denny Laine!!! A legend!!! The Moody Blues, and Wings, and now solo...what a fantastic musician you are.

There never was Wings without him !

Better than originals….:

Yes very true Gary !

Also a very early favorite of mine .

Oh! Thank you so much for being such an amazing fan of my music Rollie🙏🤠. I hope you never stop being a fan and also stop listening to my songs🎶. Well could you kindly tell me how long you've been a fan my music???

Scousers

Agree

That was awful, one of the worst things to appear in the charts, along with the Froggy song!

@@BobK5 what the fuck is the "Froggy song"? Lmfao 🤣

@@antimurphy8212 you’re not a Paul fan then, the song is called ‘we all stand together’ known as the Frog song, my pleasure.

Gave my mull of Kintyre record to a band guy, lost it. Well, I had it all. Met the Beatles, saw them and Wings. Love those times. X thank you.

And, co-wrote Band on the Run, for which he didn't get the proper credit. Royalties either, reportedly.

The 1977 TV show "Go Now" tape is powerful and beautiful ❤️

@@dennylaine8735 i was 15 years old and saw an ad for the movie rockshow at a movie theatre in rlando fla.it was summer vacation and i took a bus to the theatre for the 1st 12pm showing. seeing you and paul playing multiple instruments,singing,harmonizing at that point i decided that's what wanted to do.i have been a fan ever since.because of this i had a 22 year career in music.i also became a fan of your stint with the moody blues.thank you for everything. i am recording again after a 15 year hiatus.i will always be a fan. here is a song i recorded called save myself. hope you become a fan of mine.god bless youkzfaq.info/get/bejne/gbKKqLajysXRj2Q.html save myself recorded 2021 in savannah ga

A great talent !

Verdadero

True !

It would have no commercial interest with the US public.

@@NealR2000 Interesting. There have been tons of hits that some people thought the US public would have no interest in. If the record label spends money on a song, you can pretty much guarantee a hit.

I'm afraid MoK didnt even make the 100 top songs of the year due it not selling in the USA. I believe it was the biggest selling single of all time until Band Aid.....

Biggest selling single in UK until Band Aid in 1984.......

Thanks ! Denny will be missed by many .

To sing about Birmingham romantically would be memorable ..I don’t think anybody has achieved it yet...

I like the Elvis song are you" lonesome tonight" the funny version...that angle is nice...

Goosebump stuff. Sort of unexpected to hear someone else sing it. Then you remember that he helped create it. Very special.

@@david-lt9wj McCartney namechecks it in 'Helen Wheels'..

It's Denny who decided to leave Paul.

He has a younger band he plays with. It make him feel younger. Why go backwards anyway? When did they play together last...back in 1980 or so? When are people going accept it is what it is and to just get over it? Shit happens.

Wings was a very successful band and Danny is part of it.

would love to see the 2 Wing men together!

Wings ended with Linda’s death. Interesting that Denny was the one consistent that McCartney could always count on during Wings.

I loved that album the moment I heard it and still give it a listen occasionally.

@@whyyeseyec to me it sounds " fresh". Probably because it is so rare to hear any of the songs on the radio.

Denny co wrote with Paul M

@@paulpetock2836correction : he wrote it with bill6 shepherd.

@@lucytupper69 ?????

@@paulpetock2836 you don’t know that so called Paul is being played by William Shepherd aka Billy Shears? Here you can see George calling him William! kzfaq.info/get/bejne/oKxxrMVlrsylYY0.htmlsi=AAtJvrSXIzkHmJAR

Must have better voice in the day because mecca can still harmonize and play bass better than all these young digitechs that use loops and auto tune because studios don't want to spend money for take after take with all these millennial that can't hold a tune or play for 3 minutes,to get a record done,just sayin,and as far as that goes all the70s rockers, or 70s anything sounds better than anything out today,with no loops or autotune, hell they didn't even have click tracks then ,click track was your drummer in 60sand70s thats why every drummer was good in 6os and 70s,they had to be,they were the,time keepers.Ask Vince gill or McCartney if they use autotune but stand back at least arms length cause you could get slapped up side you head.not really ,they just laughed no but I could use it.Both of them have autotunealfeady in them,they don't need no gadgets to keep them on track.alot of those guys don't even need a tuner for their inst.Go figure that out,most people can even tune abass 4 strings without a tuner hanging off the head somewhere.o well times are changing for sure and so instead ot moving ahead,getting more talented musicians we have a bunch of loopers and auto tuners that sound just like what their doing short cutting.you can't short cut anything and get a better turn out.Pop music was different 20 30 years ago,it use to mean if you hit pop charts you had crossed over to all charts and even grandmothers listen to theBeatles.there isn't anybody i know over 40 that like this new pop .not to many 40year olds listening to any kind of so called pop,like everything else pop means something different today than the the day they invented that category. If they don't put you somewhere your called Americana,thats everyone from america,isn't it.so Aerosmith could fall under Americana im not just dazed and confused im just old and confused im sure glad I grew up when music was real.you go out and see a band with loops and auto tune and they think they got it all down,take that away and you'll see why they need it.probably just answered my own questions could you imagine Brittany or Katy perry or the Montana girl, cyris singing without auto tune,yes so l guess some people need it,even t swizzle uses autotune and she is one of the most talented songwriters wheather you like her or not,I personally wouldn't gosee any of these posters if they were plying on the green in my town for free

You mean that other guy who... Has sold over 100 million records, 100 million singles and something like 60 Gold records...that guy?

@@robbhahn8897 Yeah, the guy who is lucky to have been a Beatle. Denny is a better musician and singer but not a former Beatle.

@@donnaone1nine yes, a good musician does not have to have been a Beatle, I like Beatles music much so,but Paul was very forceful towards other band members he played with,liked to control, Lennon and Harrison used to back off him a bit and just let him get on with it,. But Paul did make it very big as a reward

@@roberttalbot6397 From the goodwill of being a Beatle.

@@donnaone1nine I got loads of mcartney but admit some of his lyrics in some songs are flat and basically just words that don't mean nowt, there again band on the run,( with Denny co wrote the song,no words,) is my best, well at the top of my list of wings albums, Paul's vocals on that album would take some beating, pure classic that album

It was huge worldwide , but did not get much airplay in the states .

@@paulpetock2836 Capitol would pretty much repeat the same mistake later by ignoring 'Once Upon A Long Ago'..

Yes , glad you were there , It was a great show ! I will be posting more of this show and others I produced in the near future . The Salem show was October 5th 2008 , I had to check .

@@paulpetock2836 I just checked my ticket stub and it says October 4th 2008 for the Salem Oregon show at the Elsinore Theater. I'd love to see the entire show including the stories with Pete Bennett and Denny Laine.

@@chuckstenberg the Portland show was the 5th , Salem the 4th . I will be posting more clips in the near future .

Oct 2008 , Denny did a show in Salem Oregon , then Portland the next night . I produced both shows and the video for the Pete Bennett TV Show .Denny was really a great person to work and party with . He was also part of the NJ show with Pete Bennett at the Count Basie Theatre .

@@paulpetock2836 Thx much! And lucky you!

@@paulpetock2836 Do you know if Denny and Paul remained friends? I have always seen Denny as one of Paul’s rescuers along with Linda. Would have loved to have seen him as a guest up on stage with Paul over these last years.

@@allymayful My understanding is that they are on friendly terms , but not the same bond they had when working and living together . I would love to see a WINGS reunion as many others would .

@@paulpetock2836 Plus to be inducted into the Hall of Fame, which should have happened well before Linda passed.

Paul has his own ways.

​@@michaelmccartney8506 Doesn't he just?!!!

Probably the horror of Denny's Japanese Tears was too much for Paul and he decided to sever that wing.

He knew Paul wasn’t Paul. There is a vid on KZfaq where Denny exposes the fraud!

I think more that they knew each other for years and Denny had a major hit with the Moody Blues .

@@paulpetock2836 Yeah, you're right, though I wasn't literally suggesting that he'd collaborated with Laine because of his name.

@@sporkfindus4777 I understand

@@paulpetock2836 👍

@@paulpetock2836 your correct

Lonnie's mother was Irish , his father Scots . He was born in Scotland but moved to London when he was two , he grew up in England . Lonnie is considered a British artist . He did not chart well in the US , his biggest hits were chewing gum in 1959 , a personal favorite , and Rock island line in 55 . Most in the US do not remember him , except Chewing gum , but he was a Super Star in the UK !

ok

Denny was paid more than 100 , about $1400 USD in todays money . Other band members starting out were paid this , Denny also earned royalty money and other compensation . Denny left the group after the bust in Japan . Paul is a long time animal rights activist so no surprise he fired crew who did not follow his request , and smuggled in meat backstage . Paul looks great from his diet , still young and spry !

Was it Paul's hamburger ? That's really mean hamburgers don't cost much...

Heard many crappy "Paul stories" like this

@@david-lt9wj Paul chooses to be vegan so Perhaps he thinks he's da judge

@@brothermike2506 mostly bullshit. Did you read the comment above yours telling the true version of this lie. Moral of this story - “don’t believe negative comments from miserable people until you have researched them for yourself”

a dollar is a dollar and a dime is a dime !

Lonnie was the original owner of Rory's Stratocaster

It was off the board , sounds good on my studio monitors and headphones , for a live recording .
