An incredible, candid, and deeply personal look at the man behind the superstar image. In this October 1976 interview at Wembley, Paul McCartney and Wings drummer Joe English discuss the reality of following a legend.

This rare footage captures the moment Paul realized he could build something new and successful with Wings, leaving the ghost of the past behind.
