wallace569 I've had this movie on a VHS tape that I burned from a laser disk in the early 1980s. This is the closest you are going to get to seeing the Wings Over America Tour in 1976 - The sound surpasses almost all 1970s concert films. I have the digitally remastered WOA CD and it sounds like it was recorded yesterday - please release this film in a digitally remastered DVD! The direction is sadly...lacking (which is true of many 70s concert films).This is what Paul McCartney wanted to do with the Beatles at the end - become a touring performing band.This movie shows that dream realized nicely.

preppy-3 ...at a theatre--but not a movie theatre. For some reason this played at a huge concert hall in Boston for one week only. I was a little disappointed by it.I mostly loved it. Paul McCartney and Wings were a great group and (I heard) always put a good show on. McCartney is always full of energy and charisma and it shows in this movie. Also the sound, where I saw it, was fantastic. They had TWENTY speakers set up so it was VERY loud but clear. Still, I can only give the movie a 7. Why? It was horribly directed. Half the time it was filmed too far away and during "Live and Let Die" (with strobe lights) I couldn't tell what was going on. There's also no directoral credits which should tell you something. Also the film was very grainy--they seem to have spent most of the money on the sound recording.So, it is worth seeing if you're a Wings fan. Otherwise you might not like it.

whiskeyhill To my knowledge, Wings Over the World and Rockshow are not the same thing (as one comment seems to state). Both are based on Wings' 1976 world tour. But,to my knowledge, Rockshow is a concert film and was released in theaters (at least it played occasionally in theaters over the years). Wings Over the World was a TV special that aired in 1979 - I remember watching it. I recall it being more of a look at 'life on the road' side of the tour. All apologies if I stand corrected.

EmilioCacao This is the best recorded tour of Paul McCartney, showing the power of his solid band Wings. Linda reaches beautiful vocal harmonies on "Listen To What The Man Said" and Paul distills love and careness for her in the masterpiece "Maybe I´m Amazed".The sound quality of the video is not the best; well, it was 1976 and the record machines for live performances weren´t as good as the studio ones, but It´s not the hi-fi sound that kicks here, is the talented Paul and his beloved wife.It´s pretty hard to get this picture, so I recommend you to buy the "Wings Over America" CD at www.amazon.com. It has all the movie songs, plus some surprises.
