Henry McCullough, guitarist in Paul McCartney’s Wings, dead at 72
Quite the pedigree:

He was best known for his work as a member of Spooky Tooth, Paul McCartney & Wings,The Grease Band and Sweeney's Men. He also performed and recorded as a solo artist and session musician.
McCullough was born in Portstewart, and first came to prominence in the early 1960s as the teenage lead guitarist with The Skyrockets showband from Enniskillen. In 1964, with three other members of The Skyrockets, he left and formed a new showband fronted by South African born vocalist Gene Chetty, which they named Gene and The Gents.
In 1967 McCullough moved to Belfast where he joined Chris Stewart (bass), Ernie Graham (vocals) and Dave Lutton (drums) to form the psychedelic band The People. Later that year the band moved to London and were signed by Chas Chandler's management team, who changed the group’s name to Éire Apparent. Under Chandler's guidance after a single release they toured with groups such as Pink Floyd, Soft Machine, The Move and The Jimi Hendrix Experience, as well as Eric Burdon and the Animals. Things went well until in Vancouver, Canada in mid February 1968, while the band was touring with The Animals, McCullough returned to The United Kingdom, officially because of 'visa problems' and Mick Cox flew out to take his place in the band.^[1] Back in Ireland McCullough joined what was primarily a folk group called Sweeney's Men, by May 1968.^[2] Under his influence, they began to mix folk and rock, and are regarded as one of the early pioneers of Folk rock.
1970s[edit]

After a year in Ireland, McCullough returned to London to work with Joe Cocker as a member of his backing band, the Grease Band. With Cocker he toured the U.S. and performed at the Woodstock Festival.^[3] He played on The Grease Band's eponymous album after leaving Cocker and during his time with the band he also appeared as lead guitarist on Andrew Lloyd Webber and Tim Rice's rock opera Jesus Christ Superstar(1970) and on the progressive Spooky Tooth album The Last Puff (1970).^[4]
In 1971 Paul McCartney asked McCullough to join his new band, Wings, alongside Denny Laine and Denny Seiwell. His guitar solo on "My Love" has been described as one of rock music’s greatest solos.^[5] Musical differences with McCartney, however, saw McCullough move on the eve of the Band on the Run sessions. He spent two years in the band, playing lead guitar on "Hi, Hi, Hi", "Live and Let Die" as well as "My Love".^[4]
McCullough's spoken words "I don't know; I was really drunk at the time" can be heard on the Pink Floyd album The Dark Side of the Moon (1973), at the end of the song "Money". He was recalling a fight he had the night before with his wife.^[6]
In 1975 McCullough joined The Frankie Miller Band with bassist Chris Stewart, keyboard player Mick Weaver and drummer Stu Perry. They recorded the album, The Rock with Miller. The song "Ain't Got No Money" taken from this album, inspired Bob Seger to write and record "The Fire Down Below".^{[citation needed]} Later the same year McCullough released Mind Your Own Business on George Harrison's Dark Horse label.^[4]
McCullough played concerts as a session musician with Roy Harper, Frankie Miller, Eric Burdon, Marianne Faithfull, Ronnie Lane and Donovan. In 1977 he temporarily joined Dr. Feelgood, following the departure of Wilko Johnson.^[7]

(Mother Nature gives us the gears)
Fascinating nature was ahead of mankind here obviously.

Close-Up of the First Mechanical Gear Ever Found in Nature

© Burrows/Sutton

The biological form of a mechanical gear was observed in nature for the first time in juvenile planthoppers(Genus: Issus), a common insect that can be found in gardens across Europe.
The insect has hind-leg joints with curved cog-like strips of opposing ‘teeth’ that intermesh, rotating like mechanical gears to synchronise the animal’s legs when it launches into a jump. The finding demonstrates that gear mechanisms previously thought to be solely man-made have an evolutionary precedent. [source]
