Release by Island Records in February 1972, 'Woman' was the first solo album by Mike McGear (McCartney) and was a more 'serious' record than his work with the Liverpool satirical trio Scaffold, or his work with Roger McGough on the 'McGough & McGear' album.
Recorded at Strawberry studios in Stockport and completed at Abbey Road studios, the album had a long gestation period and sessions featured such notable guests as organist Brian Auger, Ginger Johnson and his African drums, Andy Roberts et al, the material comprising the album was song-based, (interspersed with recorded dialogue between Mike and his daughter), with some lyrics provided by Roger McGough.
Being removed from his work with Scaffold, 'Woman' was rejected by EMI Records for release, but was eagerly signed by Island Records.
