Big Barn Bed
"Big Barn Bed" is a song by Paul McCartney and Wings from the band's 1973 album ''Red Rose Speedway''. The songwriting credits are attributed to Paul McCartney and Linda McCartney. Background Like the ''Red Rose Speedway'' tracks "Get On the Right Thing" and " Little Lamb Dragonfly", "Big Barn Bed" was a leftover from the McCartneys' solo career. The song dates back to 1971, with the opening lines of the track constituting the coda to the "Ram On" reprise on the McCartneys' album ''Ram''. However, during the recording sessions for ''Red Rose Speedway'', the song was recorded by the band for the new album. "Big Barn Bed" was originally intended to be the opening track of the double-LP version of ''Red Rose Speedway'', but although the final album was cut down to a single disc, the song remained the album's opener. A live version of "Big Barn Bed" was also included as the opening track in the '' James Paul McCartney'' television special, broadcast on 10 May 1973. Throughout the perf ...

Paul McCartney And Wings
Wings were a British-American rock band formed in 1971 by former Beatle bassist Paul McCartney, his wife Linda McCartney on keyboards, session drummer Denny Seiwell, and former Moody Blues guitarist Denny Laine. Wings were noted for their commercial successes, musical eclecticism and frequent personnel changes; going through three lead guitarists and four drummers. However, the core trio of the McCartneys and Laine remained intact throughout the group's existence. Created following the McCartneys' 1971 album ''Ram'', the band's first two albums, '' Wild Life'' (1971) and '' Red Rose Speedway'' (1973) (the latter featuring guitarist Henry McCullough), were viewed as artistic disappointments beside Paul's work with the Beatles. After the release of the title track of the James Bond film '' Live and Let Die'', McCullough and Seiwell resigned from the band. The McCartneys and Laine then released 1973's ''Band on the Run'', a commercial and critical success that spawned two top-t ...

Song Recordings Produced By Paul McCartney
A song is a musical composition intended to be performed by the human voice. This is often done at distinct and fixed pitches (melodies) using patterns of sound and silence. Songs contain various forms, such as those including the repetition and variation of sections. Written words created specifically for music, or for which music is specifically created, are called lyrics. If a pre-existing poem is set to composed music in classical music it is an art song. Songs that are sung on repeated pitches without distinct contours and patterns that rise and fall are called chants. Songs composed in a simple style that are learned informally "by ear" are often referred to as folk songs. Songs that are composed for professional singers who sell their recordings or live shows to the mass market are called popular songs. These songs, which have broad appeal, are often composed by professional songwriters, composers, and lyricists. Art songs are composed by trained classical composers fo ...
