      This is one of my favorite b sides of P)aul's. At first I thought it sounded country when I listened to it but after listening to it a few times I grew to like it quite a bit. Who else likes this song? a great b side single from Paul.

          Recorded the day John died wasn't it? Paul was definitely in the studio after he'd heard the news.

            It was recorded that day. He then found out about it the morning after.

                  It's effectively a Wings track credited to Paul McCartney. Great McCartney/Laine song.

                    I had no idea this was recorded the day John died. As I said back then I thought it sounded too country and didn't like it. maybe I was too young and naive to appreciate it back then. I love the background music in it too.

                          I imagine them riding horses in Arizona during the monsoon season. Its a horse-riding kind of country rhythm.

                              Love Love Love this song!! it should get more attention as GREAT as it is...That will happen with the TUG OF WAR reissue ...maybe not since Paul was working on it the Day after John had died..maybe not a good memory for him.
