LOST TRACKS

LISTEN FOR TWO PAUL McCARTNEY AND WINGS
TRACKS THAT WERE SLATED FOR THE TWO RECORD SET
 CONCERT FOR KAMPUCHEA

... obtained tapes from a former Atlantic Records executive. Included were three cassettes marked “Concerts for Cambodia.” One listen made it clear that the cassettes contained rough cuts of possible tracks for inclusion on the live album, undoubtedly transferred from mix-down reels to these cassettes for song-selection purposes.

To be clear, the tapes don’t contain the full artist sets; it is all the songs from the album and film, plus another 20 from the same artists that were under consideration for the double LP but didn’t make the final cut.

Highlights include two leftovers from a spirited McCartney & Wings set, “I’ve Had Enough” and a cover of Eddie Cochran’s “Twenty Flight Rock.” Macca would later release a studio version of the latter on Choba B CCCP.
