One Hand Clapping
A rarely seen "rockumentary" made by Paul McCartney and his then band, Wings, at Abbey Road studios in London, in August 1974. The film features the band playing live and also voice overs
with each member talking about their musical experiences up to that point. Songs featured include Maybe I'm Amazed, Jet and Live and Let Die. Paul McCartney was in good musical shape by mid 1974. He'd had a run of excellent and successful hit singles since late 1972 and more recently his Band on the Run album had seen him return to the top of the charts with his best set of songs going back to his Beatles years.
Only problem was he didn't have a full band, two members of his band Wings having quit in late 1973. By the next summer though he had recruited two new members, mercurial lead guitarist Jimmy McCulloch and fitness freak drummer Geoff Britton. Preparing to record a new album and also for nationwide tours of the UK in 1975 and the US in 1976, this MPL produced film from that period shows McCartney rehearsing the band on camera.
A mixture of run-throughs of some of his best new and recent songs, some fly-on-the-wall, though hardly revealing observation and individual interviews with the band members, it's rather poorly filmed, especially the musical numbers where lingering close up shots completely miss the dynamic of a potentially exciting group cohering in its early life.
The rockers are terrific especially the unreleased at the time "Soily", "Live And Let Die" complete with in-house orchestra and a revealing lead vocal overdub by Macca alone on Band On The Run highlight "1985". There's a nice solo piano medley of again unreleased songs where McCartney freely admits to his fondness for pre rock and roll easy listening material, something he's been criticised for and which he over-indulged in his TV special of the previous year.
Paul in Nashville
We had great fun using pedal guitars, fiddles and banjo's. The musicians out of Nashville are a great pleasure to work with because they are so sharp and professional. In an informal press conference held on the front porch of the ranch Paul said:
I came here because Nashville is the music center. I hope to return sometime in the near future and do an American Tour. If it does develop, there are definite plans for a Nashville concert. We just couldn't skip Nashville, we have too many friends here. The trouble is that since I've been here, I've promised a lot of people that I would write songs for them. It's amazing the people that want songs, like Johnny Cash and Charlie Rich.
You'd think they would have plenty of material but they all tell us, they don't have enough good songs. Eloise" written by Paul's father 20 years earlier. Also recorded was a "country flavored" song called "Sally G", written by Paul after visiting Printers Alley. He was impressed not only with Nashville, but the musicians and the Sound Shop studio where he worked,
usually from 6pm to midnight. Opryland USA Theme Park.They attended a fiddle contest, saw Dolly Parton and Porter Wagoner perform together
(the last time, for over a decade), they see Gordon Stoker (singer with Elvis Presley's backing group The Jordanaires).
Also they frequented there favorite local restaurant, the Loveless Motel, and a few drive-in movies. One evening Jerry Reed, Chet Atkins and Roy Orbison came over for a supper, cooked by Linda. We went to Rivergate Mall, and in the evening we had a barbeque down on a lake, but the next day, we were back to rehearsing for possible future tours and recordings. Most of the time we rehearsed in a
garage, next to the house. Among the thirty pieces \of luggage loaded when leaving, was a Honda motorcycle. Paul's immediate plans were to do a follow up album to "Band On The Run" in the near future. "Beyond that, I don't know. I could for all I know, write a great rock and roll epic. And then I could do nothing" Paul McCartney flew his Wings to Nashville, heart of the country music scene in the USA, and the world The idea: to have fun, to rehearse,to record, meet old friends and make new ones, to enjoy, last but not least,a jolly holiday. The mission was accomplished and all were achieved.

Paul McCartney & Wings / One Hand Clapping 
Paul McCartney loves a ‘project’ and in August 1974, when Band on the Run was enjoying a seven-week run at the top of the UK album charts, he and Wings headed to Abbey Road Studios for some filming and live-in-the-studio sessions, with a vague idea of turning it into something. A documentary film perhaps? Possibly a live studio album? Like some of Paul’s ideas (Bruce McMouse, anyone?) it came to nothing, but these sessions did acquire a name: One Hand Clapping. 50 years after the event, they are being released for (almost) the first time, via three different audio formats.
David Litchfield had filmed and recorded (over four days) a new Wings line-up, which featured Paul, Linda, Denny Laine, guitarist Jimmy McCulloch and (short-lived) drummer Geoff Britton. Orchestral arranger Del Newman and saxophonist Howie Casey, were also present to contribute.
The sessions were a mixture of recent hits, such as ‘Live and Let Die’, ‘Band on the Run’, ‘Jet’, ‘Junior’s Farm’, ‘My Love’ and a bit of dipping back into the past for some Beatles classics (‘Let It Be’, ‘The Long and Winding Road’ and ‘Lady Madonna’). Denny Laine sings the Moody Blues’ ‘Go Now’ and Paul also revisits ‘Maybe I’m Amazed’ from 1970’s McCartney. There’s also some messing around as Paul tackles the Harry Akst/Benny Davis Tin Pan Alley classic ‘Baby Face’ and dabbles with ‘I’ll Give You A Ring’, a McCartney original that would not see the light of day until a re-recording appeared as the B-side to 1982 single ‘Take It Away’.
The reason this is almost the first release of this material is because tracks from it have surfaced, here and there, over the years. The One Hand Clapping performance of ‘Live and Let Die’ was issued over 20 years ago on the soundtrack to Andrew Fleming’s 2003 film The In-Laws. Also, when Paul started his Archive Collection series in 2010, with Band on the Run, One Hand Clapping was mined as a source of bonus material to help fill out the deluxe editions. For example, six performances were on the Band on the Run bonus CD (2010), one on the McCartney bonus CD (2011) and both DVDs with those packages included One Hand Clapping footage. The latter point begs the question, why do the formats for this reissue include no video at all? Very strange, considering a TV sales brochure for the unreleased film was created at the time!
