Jones writes of how his years following The Beatles’ split had different, often circuitous, stages. Linda; nervous breakdown; recuperation; rejection of all things Beatles; Wings; gradual acceptance of The Beatles; Heather; elder knighted statesman; Nancy. His instant reaction to The Beatles’ demise was flight. He and Linda McCartney – with whom Paul formed Wings in 1971, two years after they’d married – swapped swinging London for the isolation of High Park, a farm on the Kintyre peninsula chosen by him and his previous fiancée Jane Asher. It’s still owned by Paul. There, like a prototype Richard Briers and Felicity Kendall, they got back to nature, although as Jones points out here, they commuted by private jet.
Other Wings spouses pass mostly unmentioned until Jones takes a lengthy, extraordinarily vituperative tirade against “upstart glamazon” Jo Jo, wife of Wings mainstay Denny Laine, who “would only find out years later that Jo Jo used him to get to Paul”. The Laines divorced after his infidelity. “Rarely sober… desperate for money,” by Jones’s telling, Jo Jo died aged 53, “but looked much older”.
