    In my personal opinion I think this album is a great classic rock album and would be great for full album DLC

    Here are a list of some of the albums achievements:
    It was 1974's top-selling album, and revitalized McCartney's critical standing
    In early 1975, Band on the Run won the Grammy award for "Best Pop Vocal Performance By a Duo, Group or Chorus."
    Reached #1 in the US on three separate occasions
    In 2000 Q magazine placed Band on the Run at number 75 in its list of the 100 Greatest British Albums Ever
    In 2003, the album was ranked number 418 on Rolling Stone magazine's list of the 500 greatest albums of all time
    A contemporary review by Jon Landau in Rolling Stone (issue #153) described the album as "the finest record yet released by any of the four musicians who were once called The Beatles"
    Here is the track listings (with links to videos)
    Band On The Run
    Jet (An epic classic)
    Bluebird
    Mrs. Vandebilt
    Let Me Roll It
    Mamunia
    No Words
    Picasso's Last Words (Drink to Me)
    Nineteen Hundred and Eighty-Five

    With enough support we can get this album on Rock Band

    Plus with The Beatles game being put out at some time this year and the self-titled track on GHWT it means that McCartney does not mind his music being put in video games

    I always thought George Harrison's stuff better, but Paul McCartney's music, and especially this album, has magical powers that can seduce any female, he's more powerful than Isaac Hayes and Barry White put together

    Like I stated if you want to really show your dedication change your avatar and Sig.

    Also, I am happy to see support for this album hopefully with enough people we can get it as DLC

    Band on the Run is a great album, but Wings' magnum opus came with the following album: Venus and Mars. Now THAT one deserves full album DLC:

    Venus and Mars (2 versions)
    Rock Show
    Listen to What the Man Said
    Letting Go
    Magneto and Titanium Man

    But a track pack would probably be better:

    Band on the Run
    Junior's Farm
    Rock Show
    Venus and Mars
    Live and Let Die
    Mull of Kintyre
    Jet
    Uncle Albert/Admiral Halsey
    [ ] U2 [ ] Sheryl Crow [ ] Cracker [ ] Springsteen [ ]The Pogues
    [ ] Cage the Elephant [ ] Neil Young [ ] P-Funk [ ] Heart [X]RUN-DMC [X] MeatLoaf
