Originally released on 31 March 1978, the album blends polished soft rock, melodic pop and McCartney’s trademark songwriting, featuring favourites including “London Town”, “With A Little Luck”, “I’ve Had Enough” and “Girlfriend”.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003eThe album has an unusually interesting recording history. Sessions began in February 1977 and continued through to January 1978, with recording taking place at Abbey Road Studios as well as aboard the yacht \u003cem\u003eFair Carol\u003c\/em\u003e in the Virgin Islands using a mobile recording studio. “Cafe On The Left Bank”, “I’m Carrying” and “With A Little Luck” were among the tracks recorded during the Virgin Islands sessions, giving \u003cem\u003eLondon Town\u003c\/em\u003e a particularly relaxed and atmospheric character.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003eThe material therefore comes primarily from 1977–1978, although some of the songwriting dates back further. “London Town”, for example, was begun by McCartney and Denny Laine in Australia during the 1975 Wings Over The World tour before being completed later in Scotland. “With A Little Luck” became one of the album’s major singles, while “Girlfriend” is notable as a McCartney composition later covered by Michael Jackson.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003eMusically, \u003cem\u003eLondon Town\u003c\/em\u003e sits comfortably between classic rock, soft rock and sophisticated late-70s pop, with acoustic guitars, layered keyboards, melodic bass lines and carefully arranged vocal harmonies throughout. From the gentle “I’m Carrying” and “Children Children” to the more expansive “Morse Moose And The Grey Goose”, this is an essential Wings album for fans of Paul McCartney, The Beatles, 1970s rock, soft rock and classic British pop.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTracklist\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSide A\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col start=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eLondon Town – 4:10\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCafe On The Left Bank – 3:25\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eI'm Carrying – 2:44\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBackwards Traveller – 1:07\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCuff Link – 2:03\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eChildren Children – 2:20\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eGirlfriend – 4:31\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eI've Had Enough – 3:02\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSide B\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col start=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWith A Little Luck – 5:45\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFamous Groupies – 3:34\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDeliver Your Children – 4:17\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eName And Address – 3:07\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDon't Let It Bring You Down – 4:34\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMorse Moose And The Grey Goose – 6:27\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003ciframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/lQWCJfzlDBo?si=8hN4KBqGvO_I253S\" title=\"YouTube video player\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"MPL Records","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55461212324182,"sku":"PAS 10012","price":8.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1009\/1013\/7686\/files\/rn-image_picker_lib_temp_66901850-4714-4cd7-8358-62d8d401a61c.jpg?v=1790075329","url":"https:\/\/www.sounds-grounds.co.uk\/products\/wings-london-town","provider":"Sounds + Grounds","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
