At 71, Paul McCartney is having one of his greatest years ever artistically. There is probably no other performer on the planet of his vintage who could go for three plus hours the way he did in Seattle this past July at Safeco Field. His stellar new album, NEW, is his best in years, and now his 1980 concert film, Rockshow, a good portion of which was filmed at Seattle's Kingdome in 1976, is being reissued to theaters.
In 1975 and 1976 Paul McCartney and Wings undertook the epic Wings over the World tour, the largest scale tour they would ever undertake as a band. From this tour came both the legendary "Wings over America" triple live album and the concert film "Rockshow". Although filmed on this tour at the enormous Kingdome in Seattle, "Rockshow", originally a cut down version of the concert, was not premiered until November 1980 in New York and April 1981 in London. It was released on Betamax and later on laserdisc. Now for the first time the complete full length concert is being made available fully restored from the original 35mm film and with restored & remastered sound, including a 5.1 mix for the first time. This is Paul McCartney and Wings live on stage in a concert that is destined to live forever!
