Band on the Run – The Origin of a Hit Song - Part 1 Stroll Down Penny Lane

Episode 7 Band on the Run – the origin of a hit song Part 1
Discover how a throw-away line by George Harrison provided the inspiration for the Beatles’ song, You Never Give Me Your Money – AND how three years later, this also formed the basis for Paul’s massive hit, Band on the Run. As we connect these dots, we join a 3,110-mile, transcontinental travel adventure with Paul – and we learn how he flew without his Wings.
So settle in for a series of revelations that you will find entertaining and informative, for in this Episode we will connect all these dots, and more!
