The eighth date of Wings’ first tour took place on 18 February 1972 at Salford University in England.
The tour was intended to road test the band through a number of low-key, mostly impromptu performances. All but one took place at a university, with the shows arranged at short notice on the day.
It was the weirdest thing. There was me, having been one of the world’s most famous people, a member of The Beatles, suddenly playing in this semi-professional band kind of thing.
