Wings Greatest is the first official compilation album by Wings and the first retrospective of Paul McCartney's hugely successful post-Beatles career. Released in 1978, the album brings together twelve of Wings' and McCartney's biggest hits, including Band On The Run, Live And Let Die, Jet, Silly Love Songs, With A Little Luck and Mull Of Kintyre. Featuring the striking Hipgnosis-designed artwork, it remains one of the essential collections from the Wings catalogue.
Pressing Notes
Original 1978 UK early pressing on Parlophone / MPL, catalogue number PCTC 256. This copy features the YEX 983-3 / YEX 984-4 matrix combination, representing an early UK analogue pressing manufactured by EMI during the album's initial production run.
Originally issued with the distinctive black die-cut picture inner sleeve and fold-out double-sided poster, UK pressings are highly regarded for their warm analogue sound and excellent pressing quality. Early copies remain increasingly collectible among Paul McCartney, Wings and Beatles collectors.
