Paul McCartney and Wings - “Jet”

I heard this song on the radio a few weeks ago, and at first I thought it was a post-millenial pastiche: Equal parts power and pop, dense guitar distortion, some very fun shouts—Jet!—and that commanding if campy saxophone line. Turns out the song is vintage Paul McCartney circa 1973, and “Jet” is the name of a pony he once owned. Magnificent!
