Great Idea Boycie, I like Wingspan but thought the point of it was Wings! Like your choices too:
No Jet or Don't Let It Bring You Down, i'm appalled.
Quite a few of your tracks are on my list too, so more in common than not. I might burn a 2 CD of my tracks, and design a cover too just for a laugh.I know there is a bit of a cult following for Don't Let It Bring You Down, and I do like it as London Town is a superb album. Very under-rated. I'm just not mad on it, not like other tracks. I do however, have Jet Boycie. Its part of my V&M/Rockshow/Jet opener from WOA. I thought it was good to start with Wings really at their peak, in what was their best line-up and with one of the best world tours ever. Then to go back to the start. We do seem to share alot of similar tracks. Thats an idea too, might have to do that when I get home. Wingspan was just a let down because it was just solely wings.
My fault i missed it, must get new glasses.

The idea for me was to take the hits and then add the album cuts that THIS FORUM voted as their favourites. So basically I made sure that the top voted songs from each album would be included. I think it turned out pretty well. I also added Waterspout, because I think a compilation should always have a new song to make sure the fans buy the CD as well.

Thanks! I hated to leave out Let Me Roll It, Country Dreamer and Soily...

I did like the idea for Wingspan, but didn't like the fact that Paul decided to include non-Wings on the compilation. Here's my version of Wingspan Hits & History. I for the most part took all the singles and divided them up between the A and B sides, then added some album tracks that I like. It gives Wings a proper Greatest Hits CD, with only Wings tracks. Wings A's and B's CD1 Wings Greatest Hits Hi Hi Hi My Love Live and Let Die Helen Wheels Jet Band on the Run Junior's Farm Listen to What the Man Said Letting Go Silly Love Songs Let 'Em In Maybe I'm Amazed (live) Mull of Kintyre With a Little Luck I've Had Enough London Town Goodnight Tonight Coming Up (Live) CD2 History C Moon The Mess (Live) Country Dreamer 1985 Love in Song You Gave Me The Answer Venus & Mars/Rockshow Magneto and Titanium Man Medicine Jar Beware My Love Soily Girls' School Daytime Nightime Suffering Old Siam, Sir Spin It On Getting Closer Baby's Request Mama's Little Girl Get On the Right Thing So Glad to See You Here

To be honest i looked at plenty of Wings pictures for my cover, but i went with the core trio of Paul,Linda and Denny as they were the constant all through the many line up changes.

To me, Paul, Linda and Denny are wings. The others were hired help.
