Does anyone know if Paul played bass on Silly Love Songs and Junior's Farm? Just listened to these songs on my ipod (been a while since the last time I did) and forgot how much I like the bass line/tone on these two tunes. |

If in fact he did play on every single song, then I guess I now know that for sure judging by your replies...I searched though, and coud not find that info, so thanks all for the confirmation. |

| He played electric bass and keyboard bass on every single Wings song that needed bass.

by the way...
John Lennon played bass on The Long and Winding Road. George Harrison played bass on Golden Slumbers/Carry That Weight from the Abbey Road album.
not to take away from Sir Paul, just a footnote. |

But getting back to Wings, as Chris-K said, only Paul played bass on Wings tracks in the studio.
