This performance was recorded at the Hammersmith Oden in London on 29th December 1979 for the 'Concerts For The People Of Kampuchea' and is included in the 'Concert for Kampuchea' film. 'Coming Up' is the opening track on McCartney's solo album McCartney II released in 1980. The single was a major chart hit in Britain, peaking at number 2 on the singles chart in its third week. In the U.S. and Canada, the live version of the song performed by Paul McCartney & Wings saw much greater success. Columbia Records promoted the live version which, subsequently, received more airplay than the studio version. An executive from Columbia Records explained the switch by stating 'Americans like the sound of Paul McCartney’s real voice'. This single became Wings’ sixth and final number 1 single.
