In early 1972, McCartney decided to expand Wings to a five-piece band by adding an additional guitarist, Henry McCullough and to begin touring with the group. The group spent many months on the road across Europe, beginning with a tour of British universities, and continuing in the summer in bigger European venues - where Paul and wife Linda McCartney would encounter their first of several marijuana busts over the ensuing years. Both tours were bookended by Red Rose Speedway's long string of studio sessions, which started that March in Los Angeles and finished in London that October. Initially planned as a double album, Red Rose Speedway was held up a further six months before finally appearing as a single record. Henry McCullough (born 1943) is a musician, who has played guitar in such bands as Spooky Tooth, Paul McCartneys Wings, and The Grease Band. ...

Despite not releasing an album in 1972, the first year of his professional career that McCartney had failed to do so, Wings managed to release three singles: "Give Ireland Back To The Irish" (banned by the BBC for political reasons), "Mary Had A Little Lamb" (an updated rendition of the nursery rhyme) and "Hi Hi Hi" (banned by the BBC for alleged sexual references, whereby B-Side "C Moon" received exposure).

In March of 1973 "My Love", the only single release from Red Rose Speedway, was released. It became a UK Top 10 hit and McCartney's second US #1, as well as an enduring love song (again, written for Linda). It raised expectations for the album, which shot to #5 in the UK when it appeared and went to #1 in the US. Still, the critical reception was mixed.
