Interesting facts

Rockshow is a 1980 American concert film released by Paul McCartney and Wings, filmed during the band's Wings Over the World tour (1975–1976). The film, recorded on the North American leg, features 30 songs from segments of four concerts of the tour: New York, on May 25 ; Seattle, Washington, June 10 ; and Los Angeles, California, June 22 and June 23. However, both the cover of the home video release and McCartney, in his intro to The McCartney Years DVD, acknowledge only the Seattle concert. Other recordings of the tour were released, such as the triple live album Wings over America (1976) and the Wings Over the World television documentary (1979).

Production

The music for what was to become Rockshow and part of Wings Over the World was produced by Chris Thomas and engineered by Phil McDonald during 1979. However, the processing of the Rockshow overdubs was obviously completed by the airdate of Wings Over the World, as these same performances were featured in both productions.
