Where this album fits
- Career context
- Released in January 1979, 'Back to the Egg' was Wings' sixth studio album and came after several successful years marked by hits like 'Band on the Run.' This album represented a transitional phase for Paul McCartney, as he sought to innovate while facing changing musical landscapes and internal band dynamics. It was one of the band's final projects before they disbanded later that year.
