	What the f*** is this? Nothing more than a random tho energetic jam that any band could pull off on their first rehearsal together. We drop in in the middle of that jam and Paul is nothing more than screaming himself through a song. In hindsight, maybe this really w??s the first rehearsal night of Paul's new band Wings. Denny Seiwell had been playing the drums on Paul's previous album Ram and had joined Wings after that. Linda also contributed on Paul's albums, but was now asked to really join a band that would be on the road and play live shows. That is a huge difference compared to Linda's role before. Mumbo, and in fact this complete album, sounds like a band trying to get things together and looking for its own sound. It usually doesn't work to put stuff like that on a record and even in Paul's case that is a fact. Listening to this complete album, I feel like this should've been kept in Paul's private cellars and seen the daylight as an interesting bootleg. This song is going nowhere, like any jam. A terrible first song to be heard from a new band.	Bobber	April 11, 2012
	The only rocker from Wild Life, as Laine's sizzling lead guitar and Seiwell's booming percussion give the Denny's their strongest performances on the album. McCartney's vocal steals the show, however, as he wails in the manner of "I'm Down" or "Oh Woman Oh Why", singing out nonsense syllables for the lyrics! Linda's contribution in her first group performance is a single organ chord which she repeats throughout the entire song, and her vocal "ooohh's" backing her husband.	Bruce Beatlefan	May 31, 2009
