“Wings at the Speed of Sound” is the fifth album by Wings and was recorded and issued in 1976. It displays a McCartney who is experimenting with new sounds as he always had; in this case, one of the new sounds is disco. The fact that there is virtually no hard rock pretense on this album rubbed a lot of narrow minded rock critics the wrong way.
Wings band member Denny Laine covered “Time to Hide” and “The Note You Never Wrote”
The Album was released the same month as the start of Paul McCartney’s first post-Beatles tour of the U.S., this album stayed at number one seven weeks and featured the number one single “Silly Love Songs” and the Top Ten “Let ‘Em In.” Without the hoopla, it’s actually a mediocre effort not helped by having other members of Wings contribute songs, although it contains one of those lost McCartney gems, the rocker “Beware My Love.”
