        You've picked a good three, but it's a tough one to call, I'd throw in Helen Wheels, Letting Go and maybe Band On The Run because that song has all the elements of the "Wings sound" on one track.

        1979 UK TOUR
        1989/'90 WORLD TOUR
        1993 NEW WORLD TOUR X 2
        2003 BACK IN THE WORLD
        2004 SUMMER TOUR
        2010 UP AND COMING
        2010 HAMMERSMITH
        2011 ON THE RUN
        2012 ALBERT HALL
        2013 OUT THERE

            Tough one. Definitely something prior to the '79 line-up.

                        Wings' signature tune is either Silly Love Songs or Mull Of Kintyre depending on which side of the pond you stand.

                            People seem to be mainly picking the most poppy songs here, and most suggestions are amongst my LEAST favourite Wings tracks. Wings are often dismissed as fluff by people who presumably only ever heard these tracks, but if you listen through the albums there are very very few tracks you could dismiss like that. For me: Wild Life When The Night Mrs Vandebilt Get On The Right Thing Tomorrow That's the Wings I love anyway! Although of course it's Paul, so I love the fact he's so versatile.

                              Wingsy-ish songs to me are more like the ones they played live. There are some great live cds of the early shows. HiHiHi

                                  Yeah, the good thing about Wings to me is that they DIDN'T have just one sound. Most bands - certainly nowadays - do have just one sound. Coldplay, U2, for example - all their tracks basically sound the same.

                                    To my ears, the quintessential Wingsy "sound" is "Mama's Little Girl."

                                      Yeah, I'd be much happier to go with that than with Mull or With A Little Luck, but like I said, I think they had several distinct "sounds". Another thought: how about the final minute or so of the RRS medley?

                                          "Listen To What The Man Said" is one song that can be "Wingsy" for me.
