* LIVE  IN LA / 31st BIRTHDAY PARTY

spring74 / 9oct71           CD     9.5     Studio / Live

As the story goes, John and Paul jammed together in a Los Angeles studio in 1974. The first 4 tracks are  from this recording. I also found an article on this session where Paul talked about this session. Paul plays drums and can be heard on some background vocals. Apparently, Stevie Wonder and Harry Nilsson were also present. Musically not very interesting apart from the fact that it's the only known John / Paul collaboration from after the Beatles split.
The remainder on this CD is from a jam on 9oct71 on John's birthday. It's not really much more then some rough unrehearsed sing-a-long.

Tracks.
1974: Bluesy Jam / Lucille / Nightmares / Stand By Me-Take this Hammer
1971: Tell Me What I Say / Yellow Submarine / Old Smokie mountin - Good Night Irene-He´s Got The Whole World-Like A Rolling Stone-Twist & Shout-Louie Louie-La Bamba-Being It On Home / Yesterday / Dance For The Chicken-Power To The People-Maybe Baby / Peggy Sue / My Baby Left Me / Blue Suede Shoes / Crippled Inside-Give Peace A Chance-Crippled Inside-Uncle Albert

WINGS

* HULL UNIVERSITY (72)

* RRRRROCK SHOW (76)

23jun76      CD        9.5         The Forum LA 

Taken from soundboard but with a few drawbacks: During ´Jet´ part of the instruments are way low in the mix. During the Paul Simon cover ´Richard Cory´ a drum machine for the next song already starts up. ´Blackbird´ is a mere 16 seconds only.
A short review from www.bootlegzone.com :
This is probably from the master tape. It looks like it is only one reel from the show, but at this quality, I'll take what I can get. Not only is the performance good, and highly charged, but this line recording (which was probably once property of MPL) is so clear. It's a revelation to hear Jimmy's wah-wah garnishing of The Long and Winding Road. To hear all the natural noise from amps, the real crunch of his Marshalls. Unbelievable! Call Me Back Again is simply stunning as Paul is literally singing directly into your speakers. Why don't more official recordings come out like this? None of the magic of this evening is suppressed by compression, overproduction or overdubs. And....it is far superior to Wings Over America.

Tracks:
Venus And Mars-Rock Show / Jet / Let Me Roll It / Spirit Of Ancient Egypt / Medicine Jar / Maybe I'm Amazed / Call Me Back Again / Lady Madonna / The Long And Winding Road / Live And Let Die / Picasso´s Last Words / Richard Cory / Bluebird / I've Just Seen A Face / Blackbird (cuts).
