    The Peruvian band We All Together covered a lot of Wings songs.

    They emulated the Beatles (They had a song called "Hey Revolution"!) a little and McCartney a lot.

    Pretty much the entire album "Fit Me In" by a German band called The Key is fantastic Macca-style pop yumminess. It came out around the time of "London Town".

    Well, "The Things We Do For Love," because Macca ghost-wrote it...

    The George Martin produced Stackridge album "The Man In The Bowler Hat" has some very Wings-like moments -

    The Stackridge guys and George Martin nailed the sound.

    As mentioned above, We All Together are worth checking out. Really good records - a bit unpolished, but I'm really fond of them.

    From that album I would go to "Brainiac's Daugherter" first for my McCartney fix.
    "Albert Brown" could be so many bands from that era ...

    I always thought "I'm Mandy, Fly Me" was a bit McCartneyesque.

    Whereas on the same album, "Art for Art's Sake" seemed a bit (to me) like Lennon.

    This song by Tame Impala just screams Wings to me. Especially the bridge.

    For my money,,this song couldn't possibly sound more like Paul McCartney.
