Main contributor
McCartney, Paul
Summary
A tape distributed by Capitol Records to radio stations in 1978 to promote "London Town," the new album by Paul McCartney's band, Wings. The tape was accompanied by a list of questions on paper that a disc jockey at any radio station could use to record themselves asking. Those prompted queries were then edited together with the recordings of McCartney's answers to make it seem as if the disc jockey was interviewing McCartney themselves. This was a common promotional strategy during this period.
