Wings live: Sheffield University

The seventh date of Wings’ first tour took place on 17 February 1972 at Sheffield University in England.

The tour was intended to road test the band through a number of low-key, mostly impromptu performances.

We went off on our little university tour, which was great. It was very ballsy to do, really, I couldn’t think of anything else. It didn’t feel ballsy at the time, it just felt like, well, what else do I do?
