Wings banner



 

I love it when I discover something a fan gave one of the guys was actually used.  Marie Lacey shared on Facebook that this amazing Wings banner was made in 1973 by Sil Perrone, and then another fan chimed in and said that Pattie O'Neil helped with it.   I don't know how they got it to Paul, but it is seen at the beginning and the end of the "Helen Wheels" promo video.   

By the way, MPL has posted a cleaned-up version of "Helen Wheels" on YouTube, and it looks SO much better than it has ever looked.   

My next wondering is where is this banner today?  It really is beautiful and should be displayed somewhere like a museum or at least in a private collection.

No Words



 

Such sad news today that Denny Laine has passed away.   Denny had been sick and in the hospital, but I had no idea that his condition was as bad as it apparently was.   

Denny will always be remembered as the only person outside of Paul and Linda who was in Wings from beginning to end.   He co-wrote some great songs with Paul and it was Denny's harmonizing with Linda that made the Wings sound stand out.   

I have No Words to say.   Much love to his family, friends, and fans during this time of grief.

Riding by


 So is the guy riding by the Wings Over Europe bus just a random person, not paying any attention of the brightly painted bus or the former Beatle and his new band standing in the upper deck?  Or is he someone connected with Wings and is staged in the photo?   Because if it is the first choice -- Wow -- you should look up!
