WINGS-GREATEST-1978-ПЕРВЫЙ ПРЕСС UK-MPL - PCTC256. Матрицы A-1/B-1. Редкий британский оригинал в топ состоянии с плакатом. Wings Greatest — сборник британско-американской рок-группы Wings, выпущенный в Великобритании 1 декабря 1978 года. Это был последний релиз группы на лейбле Capitol в США. Альбом стал первым официальным ретроспективным релизом в карьере лидера группы Пола Маккартни после распада The Beatles. Альбом был записан после того, как Маккартни решил покинуть американский лейбл EMICapitol и в течение шести лет сотрудничать с Columbia (только в США и Канаде), хотя во время творческого отпуска в США он оставался в EMI по всему миру. Изначально альбом задумывался как двойной, со второй пластинкой Cold Cuts: сборником ранее не издававшихся отрывков из песен Wings. В итоге альбом стал Wings Greatest синглом. Ни одна песня не была взята из альбомов 1971 года Wild Life или 1975 года Venus and Mars. Несмотря на название альбома, в него вошли два трека Пола Маккартни, выпущенные до создания группы Wings: «Uncle Albert/Admiral Halsey» (в титрах указаны «Пол и Линда Маккартни» из их альбома 1971 года Ram) и «Another Day» (сингл 1971 года, не вошедший в альбом, записанный во время сессий Ram, но в титрах указан только «Пол Маккартни»). Все остальные треки были указаны как «Wings» или «Пол Маккартни и Wings». Четыре из двенадцати треков, вошедших в этот сборник, впервые представлены на пластинке: «Another Day», «Junior's Farm"», «Hi, Hi, Hi"» и «Mull of Kintyre"». «Live and Let Die"» Альбом был принят на высоком уровне и стал мультиплатиновым. ...more
