The Wings Album Paul McCartney Wanted to Make as Quick as Bob Dylan

After releasing McCartney on the heels of The Beatles’ split, followed by Ram, Paul McCartney formed Wings in 1971. Wings was Paul’s first band since leaving one of the biggest groups in the world. So, there was no pressure. He had to soar, literally.

He couldn’t think like a Beatle anymore, but he did have his influences, including Bob Dylan. If Dylan could record an album fast, Paul wanted to do the same. However, looking back, Paul probably shouldn’t have rushed an album that became his first critical and commercial failure.
