Disco



This is Paul McCartney and Wings, miming to the hit single A-side, "Hi Hi Hi" on the TV-show "Disco '73". "Disco" - with the appropriate year added to the title, was a German music TV show which ran from 1971 to 1982. The episode with Wings was televised on 3. March 1973. You may remember that George Harrison performed "This Song" on the show on 5. February 1977. In contrast to George Harrison, Wings actually did not appear on the Disco show. They just had their promo played. According to Jörg Pieper's The Solo Beatles Film & TV Chronicle 1971-1980 the promo was shot on Nov. 25th 1972 in the ITV Studios in Northam, England. The promo was first screened in the UK on the Russell Harty Show on December 16th 1972. The clip is included in the DVD set "The McCartney Years ". Thanks to Andreas for the information!
