April 2014 marks the 'Band on the Run' U.S. single's anniversary, released as a 7" on 8th April, 1974 (28th June 1974 in the UK, fact fans!).

The 'Band on the Run' album was recorded in EMI Studios, Lagos and AIR Studios, London between August and October of 1973. Wings were without a drummer at the time so Paul stepped in and recorded all the drum tracks. It was during the Lagos sessions that Paul and Linda were mugged losing their money, camera and the original album demos to the thieves!

This unfortunate event didn't stop
'Band on the Run' from becoming Wings' most successful album. It was the top selling album in the UK in 1974 and reached no.1 in the US on 3 separate occasions. It has gone on to sell over 7 million copies worldwide.

The 'band on the run' on the iconic front cover features broadcasters Michael Parkinson and Clement Freud, singer / actor Kenny Lynch, actor James Coburn, actor Christopher Lee, boxer John Conteh as well as Paul, Linda and Denny Laine

The album was re-mastered and reissued in 2010 as the first release in the on-going Paul McCartney Archive Collection, featuring previously unreleased performances and rare documentary footage.

"Band on the Run"

Stuck inside these four walls
Sent inside forever
(Never seein' no one nice again)
(Like you, Mama)
(You, Mama)
(You)

If I ever get out of here thought of givin' it all away
To a registered charity, all I need is a pint a day
If I ever get outta here (if we ever get outta here)

Well, the rain exploded with a mighty crash as we fell into the sun And the first one said to the second one there, "I hope you're having fun"(Band on the run, band on the run)

And the jailer man and Sailor Sam were searchin' everyone
For the (band on the run, band on the run)
For the (band on the run, for the band on the run)

Well, the undertaker drew a heavy sigh seein' no one else had come And a bell was ringin' in the village square for the rabbits on the run

(Band on the run, band on the run) And the jailer man and Sailor Sam were searchin' everyone
For the (band on the run, band on the run)Yeah, the band on the run (the band on the run)
(The band on the run, the band on the run)

Well, the night was falling as the desert world began to settle down In the town they're searchin' for us everywhere 'cause we never will be found

(Band on the run, band on the run) And the county judge who held a grudge will search for evermore For the (band on the run, the band on the run)

(The band on the run, the band on the run) [end]
