Pressetext (deutsch):

Ausgewählt aus 90 Stunden Material ist WINGS OVER AMERICA das Livealbum zur Welttournee 1975 und ’76, die die Band auf ihrem Höhepunkt einfängt. Es wurde bei mehreren US-Shows aufgenommen, aber so gemischt, als wäre es eine einzige Performance. Paul kombinierte alte Beatles-Favoriten mit Highlights aus seinem Solokatalog, der schon damals eine unglaubliche Größe hatte.

WINGS OVER AMERICA bleibt bis heute eines der wenigen Live-Alben, das die Nummer 1 in den USA erreichte – und war zudem das fünfte Nummer-1-Album der Band in Folge.

Pressetext (englisch):

Rare #1-charting triple live album, WINGS OVER AMERICA is a document of one the most sophisticated and dazzling rock shows of the 1970s or any decade. Paul and the band would eventually perform to more than 600,000 people at 31 shows in the US and Canada, ending with three historic nights at The Forum in Los Angeles. It’s no exaggeration to say that the excitement that greeted Paul McCartney & Wings (Linda McCartney, Joe English, Denny Laine and Jimmy McCulloch) in the spring of 1976 as they embarked on what would become their one and only North American tour was overwhelming. Having released four consecutive chart topping albums — Red Rose Speedway, Band on the Run, Venus and Mars and At The Speed Of Sound – not to mention 1973’s Academy Award-winning James Bond theme Live and Let Die – Wings’ career was in full flight… and as Paul’s first U.S. tour since The Beatles, the sheer joy of both the band and its fans were off the charts throughout the 90 hours of recordings distilled into this triple album. WINGS OVER AMERICA was last reissued in 2013 as part of the Paul McCartney Archive Collection series winning the Grammy Award for Boxed or Special Limited Edition Package. 

WINGS OVER AMERICA will be available in configurations including double CD, 3 x 180g triple vinyl, and limited edition colour vinyl (LP1 – transparent red, LP2 – transparent green, LP3 – transparent blue) both come with an original souvenir poster. The album will also be available digitally.
