Track 15 From between London Town and Back to the Egg - the flip-side of Wings' March 1979 single Goodnight Tonight.
Track 16 The first output from the McCartney solo sessions of mid-1979, just after Back to the Egg. Credited to Paul and not to Wings, this was the A-side of a single that November.
Track 17 The instrumental B-side of Wonderful Christmastime, recorded back in 1975, again without Wings.
