Band on the Run will always be my Macca summer album. I was 9 years old when it came out. I was already a huge Beatle fan and I couldn’t get enough of the album and felt Paul finally nailed it without question. The title track, Jet, Helen Wheels and 1985 were the best. Coming off of Live and Let Die helped a lot too. My favorite album is RAM and Back to the Egg is in my top five. I’ve always thought that BTTE as “son of RAM”.

Ken thank you so much for another interview with the wonderful Luca. I've been a solo Paul fan since I was 15 and I am not fatigued of Band on the Run at all, it's my favorite Wings album.

I’m excited to get Luca’s book. On the subject of Mull of Kintyre in the US, I did notice this weekend while listening to a replay of Casey Cason’s American top 40 that the number one song in 1972 was Amazing Grace by the Scottish Dragoon Guards…pretty much entirely bagpipes. So perhaps there is a different reason (other than bagpipes) they didn’t release M of K in the US.

I always listen to RRS as a double album nowadays. I made up my own 18-track disc of all the studio stuff from those sessions and it might be my favorite Wings album. I think it could have been successful despite the added expense of a second disc. I think "Get on the Right Thing" and "I Would Only Smile" could have been released as singles.

Well researched and interesting interview, but Ken seems so skeptical of Paul’s intentions and motives, maybe it’s needed in all cases. Good interview, love Luca, his books and his interviews, thx Ken.

I don't know if you've listened to other interviews on this channel, or at my other podcasts, but I've always recognized wings as a real band, with Paul trying to establish them as such. I just wanted Luca's view on the subject. No matter how strongly I feel on this subject, there will always be opposing viewpoints, which I have to deal with.

I think it is time to move on from ‘Band On The Run’ album, which has become analysed and documented to near boredom!

Did you watch this interview, and if so, learn anything new? With every artist's catalog, there will always be some that are analyzed more than others, especially if they are considered classics. If you follow my work on this channel, my radio show, and podcasts, you'll know that I try to cover all the Beatles' group and solo-works. Luca's latest book happens to be on Band On The Run, and he's a great author and guest to have on, so it was natural to do a show with him about that album.

@@kenmichaelsradio748 Thank you for the reply Ken. I watch all of your podcasts and certainly enjoy them as they are so informative and interesting. Ken, I appreciate your vast Beatles/solo knowledge. As a first generation Beatles fan, the stories and news articles are always interesting. Luca’s always a fascinating guest on your podcasts and is very knowledgeable concerning Paul McCartney’s career and work. I have yet to read any of Luca’s books, which I have no doubt are tremendous reads. The Band On The Run story has been has been told and documented by so many people over the years, apart from Paul himself on several occasions. So no, can’t say I learned anything new. I will certainly buy Luca’s books in time!
