Studio Two, Abbey Road Studios, London

Producer: Paul McCartney

Engineer: Peter Henderson

Working in Studio Two with engineer Peter Henderson, the band continued assembling the album's final stereo masters.

Songs Mixed on 27th February 1976

Three tracks were mixed in stereo during this session:

  • Beware My Love
  • Wino Junko
  • Silly Love Songs

The mixing sessions broadly followed the album's eventual running order, refining balance, vocal placement, and instrumental dynamics ahead of release.

Historical Context

By late February 1976:

  • The album was nearing completion ahead of its March 1976 release.
  • Wings were preparing for the ambitious Wings Over The World tour.
  • "Silly Love Songs" would soon become one of McCartney's biggest post-Beatles hits, reaching No. 1 in the US.

The Wings At The Speed Of Sound sessions are notable for featuring lead vocals from multiple band members — a deliberate shift from the more McCartney-centric structure of earlier albums.
