It couldn't have been a pretty picture because at the time their was a lot of tension between Paul and Jimmy.

Wll, as paul said in Wingspan, 'he just liked partying too much' & it seemed macca
coundn't get him to get some proper recording done.

I have been listening to London Town a lot the last couple of days (thanks mostly to this thread!) especially Don't Let It Bring You Down which I had totally fogotten about and absolutely love! I remember cycling into town in the rain to buy this LP when it was released I think I must have been about 12!

Anyway - getting to the point - someone posted some out-takes shots of the front and back sleeves on another thread a few weeks ago, any idea where they are?

The upper one comes from the sessions for the booklet photo's.

London Town is kind of a mediocre album to me that could have been much better & with only a few great tracks on it.  I don't think Denny's influence is heavy on LT at all, but it's not one of Paul's best albums next to BOTR & McCartney.

Nope! I'm sure it was an alternate shot of the front or possibly back cover which showed the cover shots were taken in a studio rather than on the Thames!

Really? To me it is, apart from the poppy songs. I think you can hear his
influence on London Town more so than any other Wings album.

London Town has some of my very favorite Wings songs.. Backwards Traveller,
Famous Groupies, Deliver Your Children, and Don't Let It Bring You Down.

Here's the link to the "cigarette" picture. Click it for the closeup.
