Nice, Andrew. I went to my local record store (in Inverness) last Monday to buy the CD and, to my pleasant surprise, the sales dude (who is literally named after Paul because Macca was mum's favourite Beatle) told me that the album had sold out on the day the shop received it. We had a nice chat about Beatley stuff and he took my phone number so that he can call me as soon as they get in a new delivery.

I didn’t care too much about Wings in their day mainly because I was in mourning over the breakup of the Beatles. But I have a newfound respect for the band. My greatest respect goes to Paul McCartney, who could pull it off successfully with two groups, despite that Wings changed their lineup a few times.

One Hand Clapping's always had this mysterious feel to it since we've only ever been drip-fed bits and pieces of it over the years, so it's nice to have a polished up official release now. I really like these performances, the more upbeat tracks in particular are incredibly energetic.

Fine work, Andrew! An unboxing/history lesson/review, all rolled up into one! This release was a dream come true for me and it did not disappoint! I would easily rank this in my top 10. The mix is stellar (both stereo & particularly Dolby Atmos) and one of my last Macca "grails" was achieved with a version of Blue Moon Of Kentucky that is not sourced from a scratchy acetate. Minor "grail" achievement goes to Baby Face without the overdubbed narrative. Quick shout out goes to Geoff Britton. He may not have been a "clever" drummer like Joe English, but from a sheer power standpoint, he was a force of nature!

Nowadays there is far too much conversation and comment about Paul’s voice and the effect age has had. It would be far more sensible for us to all reflect on how good Paul’s voice was at its peak. At this time in his life he was an excellent vocalist and this LP shows that he was in total command of his performances and had the versatility which many top level singers wish they had. Listening to these performances it’s quite stunning how easy he makes it seem. It’s about time this was released and given the attention that it deserves. Very nice review as always! Great work.

@silverinkpot7Ай бұрын
Thanks for another well researched video, with fascinating detail. This period was one of Paul's most creatively fertile. I haven't bought the One Hand Clapping yet. To me it's most interesting as the inspiration of what would result in the most exciting three record live album of the seventies, Wings Over America, and a culmination of Paul's effort to find artistic achievement rivaling the Beatles. My only disappointment was that Wings Over America couldn't have included songs from Ram or Wild Life (i.e. Back Seat of My Car, Uncle Albert Admiral Halsey, Tomorrow, Dear Friend). The biggest omission from Wings Over America was, of course, Let It Be. Interesting that Paul was rehearsing it but then cut it from the playlist for the tour. P. S. I wish Denny Laine could have seen this.

"the sound of one hand clapping" is a famous Zen koan, a type of riddle or paradoxical statement used in Zen Buddhism to provoke deep thought and challenge conventional thinking. This particular koan originates from the teachings of the Japanese Zen master Hakuin Ekaku. The purpose of such koans is to transcend logical reasoning and prompt a meditative state, encouraging practitioners to experience a direct insight into the nature of reality.

As usual Andrew, you nailed it. This was a GREAT bootleg album and an even better official release. Every McCartney fan should have this album in their collection. A perfect bridge between “Band On The Run” & “Venus and Mars”. These sessions also gave Paul the confidence to plan a World Tour, his voice is top notch and the band is red hot! Now, as a far as the CD and Vinyl are concerned, they both sound excellent. Paul’s Archive Series releases are generally done with great care and are not “BRICK-WALLED”. The CD and Vinyl offered in the shops does not contain the bonus 7” E.P., only purchases from McCartney’s website get this 12 minute goody. No great loss, as this “Backyard” tape has been bootlegged to death for over 30 years. If you do a little Internet search you will easily find this 7” E.P. Vinyl ripped for free to download.😊

I'll have to check this out eventually. I don't know how much of this material ended up being played at concerts, but I do know that this has to be better than the bootlegs (or even audience tapes of the shows this material might have been played at). Paul McCartney is a HUGE star, and needed to be a bit selective of just "how" and "who" he performed with...and for how long. Let's face it, he's captain of his ship!! You mentioned the WINGS OVER AMERICA tour, and that proves the point about how Paul has to be "picky," and/or the final voice when it comes to alll the decidion making. To me, the WINGS OVER AMERICA album has always sounded bad, from a sound-engineering standpoint. But, if Paul didn't put something "official" from that tour, the bootleggers would. So, very good on Paul, and for us, that he's putting this out now.
