A melancholy McCartney song with chilly visuals of winter loneliness.
A long-time fave - obscure from the beginning. Any other comments?

Footprints is a little bit spooky and eerie. I do enjoy the song, not his best, but one of the few songs from Press To Play that I can listen to without immediately turning on something else. I much prefer the Wayne Shorter song of the same title.

Offline Ignore the finished version which is buried in endless unnecessary overdubs and listen instead to the uncluttered early mix that circulates. Stunning.

@Into the Sky with Diamonds,
On a bootleg I downloaded from somewhere a long time ago; I forget the name of the bootleg (something like 'Played to Press') and the site.

YES
One day, a tape-op got a tape on backwards, he went to play it, and it was all "Neeeradno-undowarrroom" and it was "Wow! Sounds Indian!"
