Arroe Collins Like It's Live

THE McCARTNEY LEGACY, Volume 1: 1969 - 73 by Allan Kozinn and Adrian Sinclair, the first of a groundbreaking multivolume set detailing Paul McCartney's life beyond the Beatles. Informed by hundreds of interviews, extensive archival research, and thousands of never-before-seen documents, Kozinn and Sinclair combine an examination of McCartney's personal life with accounts of his musical undertakings to paint a complex portrait of an often tortured, self-doubting perfectionist.When Paul McCartney issued a press release in April 1970 announcing that the Beatles had broken up, no one could have predicted that McCartney himself would go on to have one of the most successful solo careers in music history. Now, journalist and world-renowned Beatles' historian Allan Kozinn and award-winning documentarian Adrian Sinclair chronicle McCartney's pivotal years from 1969 to 1973, a period in which McCartney recreated himself both as a man and a musician in the immediate aftermath of the Beatles breakup. Newly married and with a growing family, McCartney conquered depression and self-doubt, formed a new band, Wings, and recorded five epochal albums culminating in the triumphant smash, Band on the Run. With exacting detail, Kozinn and Sinclair share McCartney's highs and lows in his early post-Beatles years, from his plummet in reputation to his restoration to the top of the charts.Through freshly unearthed documents and exclusive interviews, Kozinn and Sinclair cast new light on famous McCartney myths and provide an in-depth treatment of an era in his life that few have examined closely. They delve into McCartney's internal conflict between opposing sides of his personality - often attributed to him being a Gemini - and how this duality both plagued and motivated him in his post-Beatles career. And of course, THE McCARTNEY LEGACY lifts the hood of the McCartney songwriting engine to reveal the conception of his songs, highlighting connections between his personal life and music. Producers, recording engineers, and musicians provide additional insight into McCartney's creative process in the studio.The volume is the perfect companion to McCartney's own publication The Lyrics, combining archival materials, interviews with McCartney, and testimony from those who worked with him to present an accurate account of the music legend that includes the good, the bad, and everything in between.
