SALLY G - Paul McCartney & Wings

This dandy little countrified tune was the B-side of the "Junior's Farm"  
single way back in 1975.  The label of the record says "Recorded in  
England" but I believe it was recorded in Nashville with Chet Atkins on  
guitar and Floyd Cramer on piano.  I don't know who played the fiddle  
and the steel guitar.
