The band's name? The Wings.

that's really, very cool.

Oh, and Macca... isn't he everyone's Least Favorite Beatle (TM)?

He's certainly mine. But then again, I don't really like any of the beetles.

Re: Nigeria, would be interesting to have a recording of Fela Kuti telling everyone Paul was shit and for no one to work with him. At least if that anecdote is true. It would be a fairly uncomfortable thing to have to listen to again.

Would it be possible to work in something about that Wings tune, 'Give Ireland Back To The Irish'?

Oh, and has anyone (else) heard the song Paul did with the Meters? God. Awful.

As for a dance thing / substitute for Candy Flip, what about Danielle Dax covering 'Tomorrow Never Knows'? From the early 90s, surprisingly shiny and of the time... little Orb-like synth gurgles and house beats, etc.
