Wings – Wings At the Speed of Sound VG+/VG+

“At the Speed of Sound” is an album by Wings, a British-American rock band formed by Paul McCartney, a former member of The Beatles, following the dissolution of the legendary group. The album was released on March 25, 1976. It serves as the band’s fifth studio album and was issued at the height of their popularity.

Following the massive success of their previous album, “Venus and Mars,” “At the Speed of Sound” was highly anticipated. The album showcases a more democratic approach to songwriting and lead vocals, with other members of the band, like Denny Laine, Jimmy McCulloch, and Linda McCartney, taking more prominent roles compared to earlier releases. This was a departure from the McCartney-centric approach of past albums.

Musically, “At the Speed of Sound” blends pop and rock elements and is noted for its catchy melodies and polished production. The album includes some of Wings’ most famous tracks, such as “Silly Love Songs” and “Let ‘Em In.”
