WINGS-LONDON TOWN-1978-THE FIRST JAPAN PRESS-MPL-EPS-81000 Rare Japanese original in top condition with a poster.  London Town is the sixth studio album by the British—American rock band Wings. It was released in March 1978, two years after its predecessor Wings at the Speed of Sound. The album had a long and stormy preparation, during which the band's 1977 tour plans were canceled due to the fact that Linda McCartney became pregnant with her and Paul McCartney's fourth child, and two Wings members left, leaving the band as a trio consisting of Paul, Linda and Danny Lane. Recording sessions took place intermittently throughout the year, mostly at Abbey Road Studios in London and aboard a luxury yacht in the Virgin Islands. "London Town" reached the top 5 of the UK and US charts. However, he failed to repeat the success of the three previous Wings albums, and he received mostly negative reviews from music critics. The lead single "With a Little Luck" became a number 1 hit in the United States, but subsequent singles from the album had only minor chart success. Also recorded during the sessions was the 1977 single "Mull of Kintyre", which until 1984 was the best-selling single in the history of the British charts and remains the best-selling single in the UK to this day. ...more
