Was that full-length version with the intro ever officially
released?

On the other hand, books by Joel Whitburn and Fred Bronson give credit for hitting #1 to the live Wings version.

As I posted above, Billboard was too slow on showing the
(Live At Glasgow) designation on the Hot 100. The live
version had overtaken the studio version weeks earlier.

Yeah, I actually wasn't sure I agreed with you when you said said the tacked-on ending was remixed.

They always played the tag on the radio here - it sounds incomplete to me without it!

Correct, the remix of the long version lacks some of the
overdubs used on the 45. It's obviously the same take,
just a presentation of the full version as it was
originally performed in concert, sans polish. It also
doesn't contain the live, ad-lib tag as that was taken from
a different performance or another point in the show.]]> Fri, 02 Dec 2022 14:24:00 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=468&PID=62315&title=paul-mccartney-coming-up#62315 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=468&PID=62311&title=paul-mccartney-coming-up#62311 Author: vanmeter

Just another note about the remix of the live version - ending differences aside it sounds to me like overdubs are missing, as there are some things like tambourine I don't hear at all in the remix, and I think the horn parts might've been redone in the studio. For instance, there's a sax overdub right after the first chorus (when he sings "you got it") that's not on the remix at all—I don't think it's a levels issue, it's just not there. The remix really lacks the polish and punch of the 45 to my ears. ]]> Fri, 02 Dec 2022 09:03:15 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=468&PID=62311&title=paul-mccartney-coming-up#62311 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=468&PID=62309&title=paul-mccartney-coming-up#62309 Author: PopArchivist
