"Little Woman Love" is a Wings song released as a B-side to the single "Mary Had a Little Lamb" on 12 May 1972.[1]
History
It was composed by Paul McCartney in 1970 and recorded during the Ram sessions but left off the album, then released as a single, although, in keeping with McCartney's practice at the time, the composition was officially credited to Paul and Linda McCartney.
Reception and charts
While "Mary Had a Little Lamb" was dismissed by the critics, it climbed to the Top 10 in the United Kingdom.[2] In the United States, however, radio stations preferred to play "Little Woman Love" more frequently. As a result, the picture sleeve for "Mary Had a Little Lamb" was revised by Apple Records to have a separate listing for the flip side, as shown. However, the single only reached number 28 in the US.[3]
Release
"Little Woman Love" was never released on an album until 1993, when it was included as a bonus track to Wild Life in The Paul McCartney Collection. It was included on the Special and Deluxe editions of the 2012 remaster of Ram.[4]
