During the supporting tour, Paul was arrested in Japan for cannabis possession, putting the band on hold. The resulting album, Back to the Egg, was a relative flop, with its singles under-performing and the critical reception negative. The McCartneys and Laine again added new members, recruiting guitarist Laurence Juber and drummer Steve Holley. Wings experienced another line-up shuffle, however, with both McCulloch and English departing before the release of the group's 1978 album London Town. In 1977, the band earned their only UK number one single, with " Mull of Kintyre", which became one of the best-selling singles in history. Intended as more of a group effort, Wings at the Speed of Sound (1976) was issued midway through the tour and featured the hit singles " Silly Love Songs" and " Let 'Em In". With the new line-up, Wings released 1975's Venus and Mars, which included the US number one single " Listen to What the Man Said", and undertook a highly successful world tour over 1975–76.

Following that album, the band recruited guitarist Jimmy McCulloch and drummer Geoff Britton, only for Britton to quit shortly afterwards and be replaced by Joe English. The McCartneys and Laine then released 1973's Band on the Run, a commercial and critical success that spawned two top ten singles in " Jet" and the title track.

After the release of the title track of the James Bond movie Live and Let Die, McCullough and Seiwell resigned from the band. However, the core trio of the McCartneys and Laine remained intact throughout the group's existence.Ĭreated 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. Wings were noted for frequent personnel changes along with their commercial successes, going through three lead guitarists and four drummers. A motive behind and the exact details of what occurred during the school shooting were not immediately clear.Paul McCartney and Wings (also known by their original name Wings) were a British–American rock band formed in 1971 by former Beatle Paul McCartney, his wife Linda McCartney on keyboards, session drummer Denny Seiwell, and former Moody Blues guitarist Denny Laine. Officials did say, however, that the investigation will include combing through the teen’s interactions on social media, where he is said to have posted pictures with a target and the weapon used in the school shooting on Tuesday.Īuthorities say they are examining all items seized from the search warrant, and are reviewing camera footage from Oxford High School to aid in their investigation. Police did not immediately announce all that was seized during the search. Law enforcement carried out a search warrant at the boy’s home in Oxford Village, in which they seized a cell phone. The teen and his parents are all reportedly being represented by lawyers and are not cooperating with the investigation. Sheriff Bouchard said the boy immediately invoked his right to refuse to speak on the incident. He was reportedly under suicide watch Tuesday night. The sophomore shooter is currently in police custody, and is being lodged at the county’s Children’s Village, a juvenile detention facility, in Pontiac.
