Long Tailed Winter Bird is a song by English musician Paul McCartney, released by Capitol Records.[1] The song is featured on McCartney's 2020 album McCartney III and was released on 18 December 2020.
Recording
McCartney stated that the song began "as a piece of film music which I extended. The title came about because it was extended into a full length song, we just called it ‘Long Tailed Winter Bird’" and further noted that "there is actually in my bird book I saw a long tailed duck, a long tailed winter duck I think".[2] The piece of film music in question was "Winter Bird" (also included on McCartney III), which McCartey noted he liked so much that after recording it he "then thought ‘OK let’s keep going’ and I started jamming on the same ideas but I lengthened it and then I started putting it on a guitar and drums and bass."[2] Audio engineer Steve Orchard noted it was the first full song recorded during the album's sessions, stating there were "a couple of versions of the outro music that sort of morphed into this groove that Paul’s playing - the main acoustic riff in that... that was the beginning of the whole record, it kind of took us off on this route.”[3]
