Wings’ second single, ‘Mary Had A Little Lamb’, was released in the United Kingdom on 5 May 1972.
Based on a 19th century nursery rhyme, the single was released by Apple Records, with ‘Little Woman Love’ on the b-side.
The single peaked at number nine on the singles chart, making it more successful than its predecessor, ‘Give Ireland Back To The Irish’.
I thought it was all very deep and all very nice. I see now, you know, it wasn’t much of a record. That’s all. It just didn’t really make it as a record, and that’s what tells, the black plastic.
