Cover art of forthcoming McCartney & Wings book revealed

The new book about Paul McCartney, and more specifically Wings, now has some official artwork.

Announced back in February, we are told that WINGS: The Story of a Band on the Run will be “a landmark account of Paul McCartney’s triumphant musical  reinvention in the 1970s and the subsequent rise of one of the decade’s  most iconic bands – told by Paul and the people who were there”. The cover art features a black and white version of a photo taken by Linda McCartney in Spain, 1972 (see below).

in America, they appear to have gone a very different route. You can see that artwork at the bottom of this post. Wings: The Story of a Band on the Run is published by Allen Lane, an imprint of  Penguin Press and is edited by Ted Widmer, who also provides and introduction. The 528-page hardcover book will be published on 4 November 2025.
