Wings live: Green’s Playhouse, Glasgow

Wings performed at Green’s Playhouse in Glasgow, Scotland, on 24 May 1973.

It was the 11th night of the 18-date Wings 1973 UK Tour, which opened on 11 May in Bristol. The support act was Brinsley Schwarz.

Wings were Paul McCartney on vocals, guitar, and bass guitar; Linda McCartney on vocals and keyboards; Denny Laine on vocals, guitar, and bass guitar; Henry McCullough on guitar and vocals; and Denny Seiwell on drums.

Mere words can’t possibly express how wonderful the concert was at Green’s Playhouse, 24th May. I haven’t enjoyed myself so much, ever, and the proof of this is in the bruises on the palms of my hands, with applauding so hard. The black and blue marks are still on my hands, looking quite horrible, but I don’t care, I only want to know when I will get the chance to do the same again! I didn’t hope for one minute that they would achieve live the tremendous sound they do on record. But I was pleasantly surprised for if anything they’re even better live.
