Wings Over the World is a 1979 television documentary film featuring the rock band Wings.[1] It consists of concert performances from their acclaimed 1975–76 world tour,[2] together with behind-the-scenes footage.[3] Also included is a short excerpt of Wings rehearsing at London's Institute of Contemporary Arts before their 1972 UK university tour.[4] Problems with the audio from the 1976 live performances delayed the film's release until March 1979,[2][5] by which time, band members Jimmy McCulloch and Joe English had left the group and been replaced.[6]
In 2013, the film was released on DVD as part of the deluxe edition of the Wings over America live album.[7]
