I looked up Wings on their Wikipedia page and it astonished me how the British press in the beginning criticized Paul in his efforts to get a new band going post Beatles. I think somehow they believed he was nothing separate from the Beatles. UK public wasn't very receptive ,either. They only had one #1 hit there- Mull of Kintyre . On the other side of the spectrum ,the US embraced his new band whole heartedly. The band collected hit after hit . I'm trying to think of one that didn't top the US chart. Five #1 straight albums,also. Pre Wings ,post Beatles ,Paul had two big US hits with Uncle Albert / Admiral Halsey and It's Just Another Day
