Wide Prairie is a posthumous compilation album by Linda McCartney. The idea for the album was inspired by a fan who wrote in inquiring about „Seaside Woman”, a reggae song which Wings had recorded in 1972 under the name Suzy and the Red Stripes featuring Linda on lead vocals.[2] The album is composed of songs by different incarnations of Wings recorded between 1972 and 1980, including previously released single only „Seaside Woman” and „Cook of the House”, a track from Wings at the Speed of Sound, and Linda McCartney's works recorded in the end of the 80's and 90's, Lead guitar on the song „The Light Comes from Within” is played by the McCartneys' son, musician/sculptor James McCartney.
