Jet is about a horse that Paul and Linda had on their farm in Scotland. There is only Paul, Linda and Denny Laine playing on this LP

What a great couple Paul and Linda were, and obviously madly in love. It had to be devastating for him to lose her so young.

Thank you for doing this, I always appreciate you doing my suggestions. 😊 It's a great song from a very creative time in Paul's career. Paul has never confirmed what the song was inspired by exactly, but here is one explanation he gave in an interview, which contradicted later: "We've got a Labrador puppy who is a runt, the runt of a litter. We bought her along a roadside in a little pet shop, out in the country one day. She was a bit of a wild dog, a wild girl who wouldn't stay in. We have a big wall around our house in London, and she wouldn't stay in, she always used to jump the wall. She'd go out on the town for the evening, like in the animated film 'Lady and The Tramp' . She must have met up with some big black Labrador or something. She came back one day pregnant. She proceeded to walk into the garage and have this litter ... Seven little black puppies, perfect little black Labradors, and she's not black, she's tan. So we worked out it must have been a black Labrador. What we do is if either of the dogs we have has a litter, we try to keep them for the puppy stage, so we get the best bit of them, and then when they get a bit unmanageable we ask people if they want to have a puppy. So Jet was one of the puppies. We give them all names. We've had some great names, there was one puppy called Golden Molasses. I rather like that. Then there was one called Brown Megs, named after a Capitol executive. They've all gone now. The people change the names if they don't like them." This was also confirmed by an interview with Paul Gambaccini, broadcast on BBC Radio in December 1978. However, in a 2010 interview on the UK television channel ITV for the programme 'Wings: Band on the Run' (to promote the November 2010 CD/DVD re-release of the album) McCartney said that Jet was the name of a pony he had owned, although many of the lyrics bore little relation to the subject; indeed, the true meaning of the lyrics has defied all attempts at decryption.

Paul McCartney's solo stuff is hit and miss for me, but this is definitely a hit. Wings seem to be a bit forgotten these days, maybe because they were a very successful band that seemed to be slightly apart from the usual more committed rock fanbase, they were never quite cool enough, but had huge crossover appeal.

Early today , but worth it cos this band and this track is simply superb ! I’m not gonna explain the dichotomy of being a hairy arsed auld Scottish punk but being daft about most things Macca and all things Wings in particular . The musicianship and phrasing are unrivalled and we should all enjoy and marvel at Paul McCartneys body of work whilst we still have him . May I suggest for the future Wings - Juniors Farm ! Love this track if you were unsure of my meaning 😅 👍🏴

This is another song i like to play along with while im having a few ales. I guess Jet is short for suffragette. Not sure who is referring to, there have been many notable suffragettes. Obviously a woman who wasnt keen on getting married. Interesting, the plane shown flys the QANTAS kangaroo, and where you paused the video showed Norman Gunston, a character created by actor Gary Macdonald. Norman was hoot, because his guests werent told it was a comedy. So much so that he nearly got punched out by Mohamad Ali. Oh, and his interview with Gene Simmons from kiss on when he and Cher were an item. Norman made the comment that it must have been convenient because Gene was know for his long tongue, and it was wrll known that Cher was a nudist... Again, he nearly got punched out. Norman covered ABBAs Fernando. Please, do not play that!!!!
