When Paul McCartney flies to Lagos on 30 August 1973 to record Band on the Run, two members of his band Wings have just decided to leave. McCartney still isn't aware that Africa will be a unique experience. With him are his wife Linda, the loyal Denny Laine and engineer Geoff Emerick. The stay in Nigeria would prove to be an epic adventure: an unfinished recording studio, tensions with local musicians, press and activist/Lagos guru Fela Ransome-Kuti, challenging weather conditions, a robbery still shrouded in mystery, and a collapse that prompts fears for Paul's life. Enriched by colour images and with an exclusive interview by the author with Pete Swettenham, assistant engineer to Geoff Emerick in London, Paul McCartney & Wings: Band on the Run. The Story of a Classic Album tells of McCartney's masterpiece in an engaging and original way.
