Esau Posted March 4, 2004 Author Report Share Posted March 4, 2004 quote:Originally posted by Phred: I remember hearing somewhere that is was band on the run, but not according to this. may 28 1974 Best I could find on that. quote: Those words were the seed for the album's title track. But "Band on the Run" was not the first single chosen from the LP. "Jet," named for a McCartney dog (as was "Martha My Dear"), peaked at number seven in March, 1974. "Band on the Run" entered the Hot 100 on April 29, 1974, and became McCartney's third post-Beatles number one single seven weeks later. http://www.superseventies.com/sw_bandontherun.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
