I agree in part - the really good stuff is just as good, but it’s a much lower percentage than the Beatles’ ratio of amazing songs / total songs released. Which is not at all surprising, considering that John Lennon, in particular, and George Harrison were both incredible songwriters in their own right.
Most people get deterred by his lack of several phenomenal albums and individual songs during his solo career, as well as throughout his Wings career. However, because of this, many of those same people also miss out on many wonderful gems. Normally I enjoy listening to 3-5 songs on each solo album just for easy listening, or whatnot. However, I can enjoy more if I'm in the mood to go on a journey with Sir Paul :)
You are great. You are going to make my forty years dream true. Concert in Bogotá. Our concert. The history concert. The soundtrack of my life. God bless you and your band.
Jan here, borrowing Dan's acct to comment. I love Paul's work. I love this song. So simple, but so powerful. And I found this rendition by accident today in the midst of Russia invading Ukraine. We had so much hope when musicians like this could perform in Red Square and offer such a radical message of opening up to the world. The video playing behind the band is not just another clever montage -- it was a message to his audience to let go of the past and embrace the future. I wonder how many who were standing there that night remember this concert? How many in this audience believe the stories the Russian media is spinning about Ukraine? I pray the Russian people find a way to let the plight of the Ukraine into their hearts and protest, but mostly keep hoping the world will make more music and less war.
I am here letting the Messiah in to my heart and life and all that concerns me, my doubts and even failures. Because I know you truly love me my Heavenly Father( Abba) You're welcome in Jesus Christ #Yeshua
Someone knocking at the door Somebody ringing the bell Someone's knocking at the door Somebody's ringing the bell Do me a favor Open the door and let 'em in, ooh yeah Sister Suzie Brother John Martin Luther Phil and Don Brother Michael Auntie Gin Open the door and let 'em in, yeah Uncle Earnie Sister Suzie Brother John Martin Luther Phil and Don Uncle Ernie Uncle Ian Open the door and let 'em in, yeah
Yeah, they were standing in one line in front of the first standing sector (in the Red Square the sitting sector was situated closer to the stage) and were facing the first rows of us with such a fear in their eyes, as if we were going to rush on them immediately. In fact, they were somehow disturbing. I remember, I shouted at one of the guards when Paul had appeared on stage to step aside, because I could not properly see my favourite artist. I didn't come to see the face of a guard in front of me, anyway, I came to see Paul McCartney! That was a surreal thing, really. That wasn't that guy's fault, so I immediately felt guilty because of my sudden burst of rage, but he steeped back and didn't come closer anymore. Anyway I found a perfect way to not let him come closer: everytime I felt someone was trying to stand between me and Paul, I began singing as loud as I could. Nobody wanted to become deaf so they never came closer. Another man from the first row in the crowd shouted at the guards: "Why are you here? Do you really think we're gonna run to the stage or do something terrible? Do you think we're those crazy jerks going to the heavy metal shows? It’s Paul McCartney!!! We're normal, we're civilized!" 😆😆😆
@Rose FabFour they were regular army soldiers, serving in the Kremlin military squadron and sent by their authorities to control the crowd in the square. I met one of them years later when he had already left the military service, and he told me he was there in the square during PM's show. He was never a McCartney fan and those circumstances certainly couldn't help him become one. I can't imagine myself being a beatlefan standing there with my back to the stage for three long loud crazy hours and not having a chance to actually see and enjoy my favourite artist.
@Rose FabFour they hadn't got weapons anyway, so their presence was in fact useless. That’s why those young boys looked so confused. I don't know who's idea that was to put them in the square in front of us: I don't remember any soldiers to observe the audience in St. Petersburg year later, for example. So well, that looked ridiculous in Moscow, as if Paul McCartney himself wanted them to be there to make an exotic entourage for his future film. He even demanded to remove the scaffold off St. Basil's Cathedral, as you can see it’s on the background behind the stage. But the Moscow authorities didn't give their permission to interrupt the process of Cathedral's restoration.
@Rose FabFour thank you! You right, I simply forgot about Putin's visit to Moscow show! From where I was standing I couldn't see him, and as far as I remember nobody in the area around me guessed it was Putin the sitting crowd cheered at. So when Paul said: "Privet rebyata" (hello, guys) again, I didn't get what was all about. Only when I saw the finished documentary half a year later, it became clear there was our president in the audience.
@mccpauline nooo... man you are so wrong !! its a nice song.... but remember about... Live and let die...... Wild Life.....Letting go....Maybe im amazed !!!
A historic concert thanks to mr putin for allowing the concert to go ahead what a night the whole city was electric and the soldiers were there for security as putin and the entire government turned up big Beatles fans ,putin is very popular in Russia as seen when he arrived in the 3rd song the whole crowd went beserk cheering him as he walked thru the crowd he was like a kid in a candy shop the whole concert and paul and the band put on a awesome show

Greetings from Los Angeles's 🤗. We Love you very much Paul 🥰😍😘💖💞💕🙏
Paul McCartney in Red Square, Moscow.
Completely surreal for those of us who remember the cold war years. Worth watching.
This video is awesome! In 1964, who could have predicted that Paul McCartney would play Beatles music in Moscows Red Square?
Paul mccartney And Wings Forever !!!!!!!!!!!!!!❤❤❤❤❤❤💓💕💖💓💜💛💚💗💘💝💞💟
Listening 2022....great great song...love the drums!!!
The universal language of Paul McCartney..
Maybe I'm alone in this, but I think a lot of McCartney's solo music is just as good as The Beatles.
I'm with you.
I agree in part - the really good stuff is just as good, but it’s a much lower percentage than the Beatles’ ratio of amazing songs / total songs released. Which is not at all surprising, considering that John Lennon, in particular, and George Harrison were both incredible songwriters in their own right.
Yep, love his solo tracks just such as the Beatles tracks
Most of the Beatles best stuff is just Paul anyway
Most people get deterred by his lack of several phenomenal albums and individual songs during his solo career, as well as throughout his Wings career.

Wings "Band On The Run" won 3 grammy awards and most of the remaining Wings albums were chart toppers. You're correct about recent solo albums though.
That's me - 00:51! ;-)
Awesome for you!!! Love from the U.S.!!!
Front row no less! Congratulations!
LOVE!!!!!! especially the drums!
Love the big dude beating the drums, great sound!

At 1:10 the poor guards can't enjoy the show. LOL at the look on his face!

"quick, try to look tough" 1:11
@tenacius999 I sort of have to disagree with you - that's Paul Wickens on keyboards :)
@righteousrat you're not alone on that
His voice the same
When was this performed?
how did he choose his band i wonder?
Yea Russia open that damn door.....someone! Come on.
Russian chicks are so hot :(
I saw him on the 18th of Aug at the Consol Energy Center. Best. Concert. Ever. He even did this song...very cool.
