Filmed and recorded over four days and directed by David Litchfield, the cinema release of One Hand Clapping will include a brand-new introduction by Paul McCartney captured exclusively for this release and feature never-before-seen footage.
One Hand Clapping was filmed at Abbey Road Studios across four days in August 1974 and followed on from the global success of their album, Band on the Run. The film features the Wings line-up augmented by new additions Jimmy McCulloch on guitar and Geoff Britton on drums.
The screening will also include the previously unreleased Backyard sessions featuring Paul McCartney on acoustic guitar performing favourites from his catalogue, including the previously unreleased song, 'Blackpool'. McCartney also covers some of his favourite songs, including 'Twenty Flight Rock', the song he performed for John Lennon the first time they met.
The film, originally shot on 1970s videotape, has been scanned and restored at 4k.
