After The Beatles broke up in 1970, Paul McCartney started the rock band Wings as his next project. With a lineup that included his wife Linda, Wings cranked out numerous hit songs in the 1970s and 80s such as "Maybe I'm Amazed," "Band on the Run," "Jet," "Let Me Roll It," "Silly Love Songs," and the Bond movie theme "Live and Let Die."
Wings ended in 1981, at which point McCartney went solo.
