Jimmy: "I can't believe I'm here right now...I'm jamming with Paul McCartney! I never thought that I'd get a chance to play with McCartney. It's like some sort of dream right now, I mean he used to be a Beatle and here he's talking to me like I matter...
'Thanks for playing on a few tracks, Jimmy...you're a really talented guitarist, a real whiz kid', Paul said to me after we had gotten through recording.
Thanks Paul...coming from you that is an honor!', I said, not hiding my excitement"

Wings in a 1976 Clive Arrowsmith's photo shooting. In photo 3, there's the final edited shot used for the "Wings Greatest" album poster ( included inside the album cover ). "Wings Greatest" was released on November 1978. I remember I purchased the album on the week it was released, and when I stunningly found out a poster inside the cover, I immediately put it on the wall of my kid room!

Press: "Oh What A Great Night It Was"
It was a night they'll never forget in Fulham! All rock's lovliest stars showed up to present a glittering array of gold discs and album sets at London's top rock pub - the Golden Lion. It was a culmination of hugely successful Ad Lib - Golden Lion Roadies' Raffle - which ended collecting a terrific £816 cheque for the Evening News Toy for a Sick Child Fund.
Led Zeppelin's Robert Plant and John Paul Jones drove down from Birmingham to be there. Ex-Wings star Jimmy McCulloch interrupted rehearsals with his new band to hand over some of his priceless gold albums.
And others who sipped pints and joked with the winners included Yes' Alan White, ex-Animal Eric Burdon, Manfred Mann's Chris Thompson and Mitch Mitchell.
Disc Jockey Mike Quinn compered and Chas & Dave plays a sizzling set. A million thanks to you all!
