Wild Life

by Stephen Thomas ErlewineThe irony of the first Wings album is that it seems more domesticated than Ram, feeling more like a Paul 'n' Linda effort than that record. Perhaps it's because this album is filled with music that's defiantly lightweight -- not just the cloying cover of "Love Is Strange" but two versions apiece of songs called "Mumbo" and "Bip Bop." If this is a great musician bringing his band up to speed, so be it, but it never seems that way -- it feels like one step removed from coasting, which is wanking. It's easy to get irritated by the upfront cutesiness, since it's married to music that's featherweight at best. Then again, that's what makes this record bizarrely fascinating -- it's hard to imagine a record with less substance, especially from an artist who's not just among the most influential of the 20th century, but from one known for precise song and studiocraft. Here, he's thrown it all to the wind, trying to make a record that sounds as pastoral and relaxed as the album's cover photo. He makes something that sounds easy -- easy enough that you and a couple of neighbors who you don't know very well could knock it out in your garage on a lazy Saturday afternoon -- and that's what's frustrating and amazing about it. Yeah, it's possible to call this a terrible record, but it's so strange in its domestic bent and feigned ordinariness that it winds up being a pop album like no other. 

我想知道我所喜爱的人们所有的故事，听完他们所有的歌，知道歌词里每一个典故，然而这是不可能的，一个披头就够我呛了，千头万绪。

“九月中旬，琳达第二个孩子的出生遇到困难，医生火速对她进行了剖腹产。站在手术室门外，保罗除了焦虑什么也做不了，这时，他想到了翅膀、机翼、舞台的两端、天使的翅膀。最后一个意象似乎是一个吉兆，很快医生出现了，琳达和女儿都安然无恙。所以，羽翼（Wings）作为新的乐队名字就这么定下来了。

Paul McCartney：所有词曲（除了3），主唱，贝司，吉他，钢琴，键盘，打击乐器； Linda McCartney：伴唱（3，5，6），键盘，钢琴，打击乐，和声； Denny Laine：吉他，贝司，打击乐，键盘，和声； Denny Seiwell：鼓，打击乐

可能多半出于偏见 我之前也听不进去 偶然机会重新打开泡的solo专 真是绝了 音乐类型太不同了 所以需要听众重新适应和理解作品

71三专 [Paul McCartney] 71一专 [Wings]

虽然有遗憾但是一个乐队在巅峰时期解散足够惊世骇俗了。一直没有走下坡路的乐队可不多。而且虫团从口水歌偶像团体转变成艺术家载入史册只用了短短几年时间，反而让人记忆更加深刻

为什么你们都对解散后的保罗的作品没感觉啊，我觉得这几张都挺不错的

以前有段时间一直为他们解散感到无限惋惜，但后来发现单飞后每个人的潜力甚至不同风格都被进一步挖掘发挥出来了，包括paul和john斗歌，也是互相竞赛互相逼迫进步的事，虽然解散是非常遗憾的事，但回头看去如果一直以一个团体的形式出现，说不定也会湮灭了好多好歌啊

四个人的音乐可以吸一辈子
