Notes


Unfortunately, it seems as though all of the original uploaded files have been deleted from RapidShare, so it seems that this is probably the last of the new material for now. My personal thanks to the original uploader for liberating this wonderful material and also to those who reposted these tracks and allowed for the full collection to be compiled.

01 Venus And Mars / Rock Show / Jet
02 Let Me Roll It
04 Spirits Of Ancient Egypt
07 Blackbird
08 Lady Madonna
09 The Long And Winding Road
32 My Love
34 Band On The Run

These tracks belong to the previous set of September 1975 Wings rehearsals.

01 A Love For You
07 Waterspout

These two tracks probably are taken from the "Cold Cuts, 1980" cassette Madinger & Easter mention.

cd1:


"Soily" is from the One Hand Clapping rehearsals of Aug.'74. "Richard Cory" is a live in studio performance from Sept.'75 and "Newt Rack" is most definitely from March '81. It's something that Paul came up with in the studio using the drum machine that's heard in songs like "What's That You're Doing" and "Hey Hey". He gave it the throw away title of "Newt Rack" as in 'New tRack'.


Beware My Love (Instrumental, complete acetate version)
Beware My Love (uncomplete version)
Must Do Something About It (Paul on vocal)
She's My Baby (Take 1)
She's My Baby (version 2)
Silly Love Songs (without strings or horns)
The Note You Never Wrote (without strings)
Time To Hide (instrumental)
Wino Junko (rough mix)

These tracks date from the January-February 1976 Wings At The Speed Of Sound sessions.

Richard Cory
Soily

This pair of tracks are likely also from the Speed of Sound sessions, but they appear to be live rehearsals for Wings Over America.

Newt Rack (instrumental)

Madinger and Easter mention this track as being worked on at AIR Studios during the 1981 Tug Of War sessions, but the sound of the track (primarily drum machine and Moog) seems to have a lot more in common with the slightly aimless Rude Studio demos from the summers of 1976 and 1977, available on the Orange release Home Demos. Of course, placing it here is speculative - it could just as well be from the March 11, 1981 date Madinger and Easter mention.

Mull Of Kintyre (count-in)

Not very different from the released version, recorded in August 1977.

Daytime Nighttime Suffering (early version)

Dates from January-February 1979.

Take It Away (monitor mix)
What's That You're Doing (rough take)

Both of these Tug Of War tracks are taken from monitor mixes in March of 1981.

Choba Medley (Part 1)
Choba Medley (Part 2)

These two tracks contain excerpts from all the tracks recorded in the July 1987 ????? ? ???? sessions. This includes interesting but frustratingly incomplete snippets from the unreleased versions of "Cut Across Shorty," "No Other Baby," "Poor Boy," "Lend Me Your Comb" and "Take This Hammer."


cd2:

Another Day
Hi Hi Hi

Both of these are taken from acetates, and don't sound notably different from the released versions.

01 Little Woman Love / C Moon
03 You Gave Me The Answer
06 Live And Let Die (Part 2 working Session)

These tracks date from the early September 1975 Elstree Film Studio rehearsals for the Wings UK tour later that month. Madinger and Easter mention three cassettes in the Trevor Jones collection from this era, named "1975 Tour Setlist," "Tour Rehearsal 1975," and "Day 2 Elstree, 1975." It's hard to tell which tracks are sourced from which, but it does seem (through the track labeling as well as the sonic quality) that there are 3 different sources for these tracks. This seems to be musically looser, so I am (very!) tentatively going to name this one "Tour Rehearsal 1975."

Junior's Farm (Version 1)
Junior's Farm (Version 2)
Let Em In (Take 1)
Little Woman Love / C Moon
Old Man River
Soily
Stealin
Suicide

More Elstree rehearsals. Since Soily and Junior's Farm are more developed, I'll go out on a limb and dub this one "Day 2 Elstree 1975." Let 'Em In wasn't performed during that tour, and this runthrough seems to be mostly to familiarize the band with the song's structure. Old Man River and Stealin' are loose jams, the latter of which is a song Denny was quite fond of - he also performed it during the October 1980 rehearsals on the When It Rains It Pours disc.

01 Soily
03 Picasso Last Words / Richard Cory
04 Bluebird
05 I ve Just Seen A Face
08 Yesterday
10 You Gave Me The Answer
11 Magneto And Titanium Man
11 Medicine Jar
14 Go Now
16 Letting Go
18 Live And Let Die
19 Call Me Back Again (Incomplete)
33 Listen To What The Man Said
35 Hi Hi Hi

From the track names, it's probably fair to assume two things: this is the "1975 Tour Setlist" tape and the rest of the tracks are probably out there somewhere.

Did We Meet Somewhere Before

From early 1978, not too different from what's been bootlegged before, although it might be a little cleaner than what's previously circulated.

01 Reception (Long Version)
02 Cage (Instrumental Backing Track)
03 Getting Closer (Instrumental Backing Track)
06 Rockestra Theme So Glad To See You Here (Instrumentals)

These Back To The Egg outtakes could be sourced from the early 1979 rough assembly cassette Madinger and Easter mention. The track numbers given also hint that there may be more from this cassette yet to come.


cd3:

01 Venus And Mars / Rock Show / Jet
02 Let Me Roll It
04 Spirits Of Ancient Egypt
07 Blackbird
08 Lady Madonna
09 The Long And Winding Road
32 My Love
34 Band On The Run

These tracks belong to the previous set of September 1975 Wings rehearsals.

01 A Love For You
07 Waterspout

These two tracks probably are taken from the "Cold Cuts, 1980" cassette Madinger & Easter mention.
