Wild Life is the debut album by Wings. Paul and Linda McCartney had worked with drummer Denny Seiwell on their previous album, Ram, and they added Denny Laine, the former leader of the Moody Blues, to that trio to become Wings.

Ocean's Kingdom is the fifth classical album by Paul McCartney. It is the score from the same-titled ballet, commissioned by the New York City Ballet. The ballet tells of a love story based in two fantastic worlds - the "pure" ocean kingdom, and the Earth kingdom with its "sort of baddies" who threaten the underwater way of life. According to McCartney, love happens when earth meets water, and "you'll have to see whether the couple make it". His score for the ballet consists of four orchestral movements.
