Ultimately, it was about the music, and viewers were treated to four McCartney performances, as opposed to the standard two musical slots on the show.
“Jet” was up first, followed by the title track of 1973’s “Band On The Run.” Paul dipped into The Beatles catalogue for “A Day In The Life,” which blended into John Lennon's "Give Peace A Chance." When host Paul Rudd was wrapping up his thanks at the end of the show, McCartney hit the stage again to play “Get Back” as the show credits rolled.
