Paul McCartney And Wings - Coming Up (Live in Kampuchea 1979)

I like the cute Video with Paul playing everything.Instrumentalist that he is🎙️

Brilliant track. Love the video with Paul mimicking other artists.

Linda, the creative force behind that bass 🎉

The Concert for Kampuchea (subtitled "Rock for Kampuchea") is a musical film from the best of the Concerts for the People of Kampuchea. The film was directed by Keith McMillan and was 4 nights of concerts in Hammersmith Odeon to raise money for Cambodia. The event was organized by Paul McCartney and Kurt Waldheim (who was then Secretary-General of the U.N.), and it involved well-established artists such as McCartney, The Who and Queen as well as younger punk and new wave acts like The Clash and The Pretenders. The film finishes with the presentation of Wings' Rockestra (more of 25 musicians playing together). Filmed in 1979, Concert for Kampuchea did not receive American theatrical distribution until it was picked up by Miramax in 1988.[1]

This concert is not in Kampuchea, it was in London at a charity gig FOR Kampuchea. Get your facts right, basic stuff man.

Paul was a guitar player who took up the bass for the good of the band, deferring to George and John. It’s one of the great things that made the Beatles so good. The bass becomes in Paul McCartney’s hands not just a member of the rhythm section, but another voice, so to speak, in the songs. He’s a genius composer but also a consummate musician.

Flea dijo que McCartney era el mejor bajista de rock de la historia, no tengo idea si será verdad, pero de que toca como un demonio, ni dudarlo. Tremendo flow.

Live at Hammersmith Odeon, you mean. It was the Concert for Kampuchea!

mejor guitarrista y cantante británico ex Beatles todavía activo como en sus buenos tiempos

Good song, but it went on way too long.

So much better than the wimpy studio version!
I've never really liked this song, but this version is great.

Hello billy!

Coming up cocaine version

*for Kampuchea. Def not 'in'.

The other thing that’s amazing is how many white people made the trip down to Kampuchea for this show

The bass is great McCartney’s voice is great but what really makes this song is the brass section and the arrangement.
It’s way better than the album version

McCartney is a genius, and in my youth I never went so crazy over a song as I did for Coming Up. Coming Up became a franchise —Coming Up (McCartney II versión), Live at Glasgow, Kampuchea, and Tripping the Live Fantastic—I love them all!

WHY "WINGS" IT INS^T IN THE ROCK HALL OF FAME ? WINGS IT WAS A GREAT BAND. I DON¨`T UNDERSTAND WHY NOT AND OTHER POOR BANDS YES....

Classic from 1980.

Paul McCartney and the Wings are simply amazing 🎉🎉. Linda encouraged him to create different types of music 🎶 🎵 and sounds to fulfill his dream and be more creative. They showed their love, through music,and their marriage and their family. They are the ultimate power couple 🎉🎉. RIP,Linda McCartney

Interesting... Wings played in Cambodia during the Killing Fields era? Or is my timeline off?

The heading "Paul McCartney And Wings - Coming Up (Live in Kampuchea 1979)"

False

It's not in Kampuchea

It's a concert FOR Kampuchea

maybe FOR Kampuchea

Linda . Look at her. She turned into a real player.

What brand bass is he playing? Yamaha?

It was a concert for Kampuchea (Cambodia) Not in the country. It was at Hammersmith Odeon in London. I dont think Pol Pot was a Macca fan.

Paul Pot/Pol McCartney

Kampuchea??!!

That was superb. I saw Paul and his band Wings also in 1979 but in my home city of Liverpool at the Royal Court theatre. Thanks for the upload, subbed you.

Es un genio de la música

wait, wait, wait....cambodia 1979??? wasnt that the khmer rouge era?

John Lennon was so struck by this song he started writing songs again.

David Byrne must have taken from this song.

IT IS IMPOSSIBLE FOR THIS CONCERT TO HAVE BEEN PERFORMED IN KAMPUCHEA IN 1979!!! This was Cambodia during the era of the Killing Fields. These were the days of Pol Pot, one of the bloodiest dictators of the 20th Century. 1979 was the year Vietnam invaded and overthrew the Khmer Rouge. Between the war and mass murder and political upheaval, DO YOU REALLY THINK THERE WOULD BE A ROCK CONCERT IN THE MIDDLE OF IT ALL???

CHANGE THE TITLE!!!

A genius - what a performance - great song, great singing, great bass playing - brilliant - God Bless Sir Paul and his family

❤👍

This must have been a benefit for Pol Pot

I feel obliged to point out that the title is a little misleading, Paul and Wings playing IN Kampuchea in 1979 would have been a little odd. I mean, maybe he would have liked to play a concert for the Khmer Rouge, maybe Pol Pot was a fan... but it's unlikely that he did.

The greatest singer and songwriter ever and ever will be.

Ese bajo es bestialll....

Is it just me or does the tempo seem a bit faster than the recording?

Is this Cambodia?

I got to see him in concert in 2016. Top of my bucket list checked off. It was great.

A Supernatural beauty ! Absolutely Marvellous. Super vitality. Encore ! Encore ,!

Paul McCartney WAS the beatles.

Great song, Great performance, GREAT PAUL!!!!!!!

better vocals than on the record

Japan busted Macca
ok
Paul back to Japan
not ok

Why not BRAZIL, sir paul?
We never gonna put you in jail
