I will watch it! I binged several eps last time I was sick enough to have to stay in bed and they were uniformly great on multiple levels
Man Alive is so great
www.abc.net.au/news/2026-02... this is a stupid, stupid article with its patronising and musically deaf attitude to Wings that was rife in school playgrounds in the 1970s. Itβs been obvious for decades now that the Beatles was McCartneyβs juvenilia and Wings was where he found himself as an artist
