Has Paul McCartney and/or Wings music videos ever been released in DVD format?

Considering his best stuff was in the 1970's, maybe they never bothered to make videos for their songs, unlike the Beatles?

Saw a Wings music video on an old rerun of The Flip Wilson show once. So they made at least one.

I remember seeing Say, Say, Say (with Michael Jackson) and, I think I saw Ebony and Ivory, but it could have been a dream.

Now, if something was ever done for Band On The Run or Let Em In, then wow-a-wow-wow!!

Wings over America (1976 Tour) was a filmed concert. I remember seeing it on HBO back in the early 80's......

There is a music video for LONDON TOWN, I'VE HAD ENOUGH (who remembers those two songs?), as well as LIVE AND LET DIE, WITH A LITTLE LUCK, UNCLE ALBERT, most can be seen on youtube. There was also a concert film called ROADSHAW that played in the theatres, then video and cable 25 years ago, but seem to disappear freom the face of the earth!

A recent article (which I can't find at the moment) stated that a music video DVD collection was being readied. The story was published just as Memory Almost Full was coming out and discussed the "flurry" of projects Macca is buried in.. that being one of them. So, there's hope!

I've got a great "gray area" collection of 74 videos on 2 dvds, great professional quality package graphics ! It's called Paul McCartney...the Video Collection" (WOW- 151 1/2)

They are of varying quality, usually off Tv, but I'm tired of waiting for the official thing to come out...I need something now !

This first time ever DVD includes the definitive visual collection of Paul McCartney's amazing career featuring solo music videos, career-spanning live performances, personal commentary by Paul McCartney and exclusive footage that tracks his incredible musical journey as never before.

Spanning four decades THE McCARTNEY YEARS is a three volume DVD collection, featuring some of the world's best-loved music that has become the soundtrack to all our lives.

VOLUME ONE and VOLUME TWO contain the definitive collection of McCartney music videos. Starting in the 1970s with Paul McCartney's first solo single Maybe I'm Amazed, the DVD includes the Wings promo video for Band On The Run as well as hits from the 1980s such as Say Say Say, and the 1990s with Biker Like An Icon. It finishes with 2005's Fine Line. The films can be viewed either in chronological order or as play-lists that have been personally arranged by Paul featuring his exclusive voiceover commentaries.

VOLUME THREE includes live performances taken from three classic McCartney live shows; ROCKSHOW filmed on Wings' 1976 World Tour, new edits of Paul's seminal UNPLUGGED in 1991 and Paul's now legendary headlining performance at 2004's GLASTONBURY Festival.

THE McCARTNEY YEARS is also packed with bonus features and extra never before seen footage and performances, including Let It Be from LIVE AID, archive interviews with Melvyn Bragg and Michael Parkinson, alternative versions of music videos and the full-length 2005 documentary Creating Chaos at Abbey Road. Paul has recorded exclusive commentary and personal introductions for each promo video and each live concert.

This collection has been meticulously restored and all films polished, re-graded and given a new lease of life in Widescreen format with re-mastered stereo audio and for the first time the original recordings re-mixed into 5.1 surround sound.

Picked this up at CC tonight for $20.

After watching the third disc, all I have to say is this...

Paul, release the full Rockshow concert on DVD. NOW!

lucasberg

hi,
long time lurker here,great site by the way.
which dvd features the behind-the-scenes footage,
for the 'off the ground' music video.
its the footage where you see paul doing wire work for the flying scenes,
and you also get a glimpse of phil tippetts stop-motion models at I.L.M.
thanks.

I would have thought this would certainly have been released first. This was HUGE in the theaters when I was a kid.

Obviously they do exist, but they are Paul McCartney solo - not Wings. Does anyone else but me separate Wings material from Paul McCartney solo stuff? To me there is a subtle difference.
