In a surprising revelation, Wings drummer Denny Seiwell has shared a fascinating anecdote about the iconic duo Paul and Linda McCartney. According to Seiwell, the McCartneys once took an unconventional approach to get back at a journalist they felt had wronged them by sending him a rather unusual package – their daughter’s baby poop.

The incident, which took place in 1972, was detailed in the book *Wings: The Story of a Band on the Run*. Seiwell recalled how a British journalist, who had gained the trust of Paul and Linda, promised a positive feature on the band’s lifestyle but ended up publishing a negative review without even attending their concert.
Seiwell revealed that in response to this betrayal, Paul and Linda decided to take matters into their own hands. With their daughter Stella being just a baby at the time, the couple collected her poop in a soap dish, wrapped it up, and sent it to the journalist. Seiwell described this as “the perfect response” to the journalist’s unscrupulous behaviour.
Despite the unconventional incident, Paul and Linda remained married until Linda’s passing in 1998, leaving a lasting legacy in the music industry. Their band, Wings, released seven studio albums before disbanding in 1979. The book *Wings: The Story of a Band on the Run*, edited by Ted Widmer, offers an intimate look at Paul’s time with the band, featuring insights from various members including Seiwell.
The book delves into over 40 hours of interviews with Paul, Linda, and other bandmates, providing fans with a unique perspective on the tumultuous yet rewarding journey of Wings. Paul himself has expressed his excitement about reliving those moments through the book, highlighting the challenges and triumphs they faced as a band post-Beatles era.
