The stories behind the songs, demos and studio recordings, unreleased tracks, recording dates, musicians, live performances and tours, covers, events: Music Is Ideas Volume 1 traces McCartney's post-Beatles output from 1970 to 1989 in the form of 346 song sheets, filled with details of the recordings and stories behind the sessions. Accompanied by photos, and drawing on interviews and contemporary reviews, this reference book draws the portrait of a musical craftsman who has elevated popular song to an art-form.

Hi Dean, McCartney wrote this song. I don't think he participated to the recording. As you've noticed, the page is pretty empty for now. But have a look at https://www.the-paulmccartney-project.com/album/print-out/ where some details are given. Thanks !
