'Back to the Egg' was meant to be a bold new beginning for Paul McCartney & Wings—but it ultimately became their final statement. In this episode, I dig into the ambition, experimentation, and turbulence surrounding Wings' last album, and why it marked the end of an era. I'm joined by author Luca Perasi, who has written an in-depth book on Back to the Egg, to explore its creation, context, and lasting legacy within McCartney's post-Beatles career.Purchase a copy of Back to the Egg: The Story of Wings' Last Album (Milestones)Follow Luca PerasiBlueskyFacebookInstagramXVisit the L.I.L.Y.
