JPGR&B SUBS 21st Jul 2024		Book Ian D. Derbyshire - Macca In The Long Noughties	The author talks about the book (Source: IDD Publishing) Why did you write this book? Paul McCartney’s post-Beatles career in the 1970s has been well chronicled: most notably in The McCartney Legacy series by Kozinn and Sinclair. Less covered has been Macca’s musical renaissance in the 2000s, when, at a time of personal challenges, he released some of his strongest and most innovative works: Rushes (1999); Run Devil Run (1999); Driving Rain (2001); Twin Freaks (2005); Chaos and Creation in the Backyard (2005); Memory Almost Full (2007); and Electric Arguments (2008). How did you research and write this book? This work has been sourced from newspaper and music magazine articles, interviews from the period, the 2008 court judgement from Paul’s divorce settlement and secondary sources including biographies, setlists, McCartney focused websites and fanzines, including the Netherlands-based Maccazine. What new things did you learn about Paul from writing this book? The sheer wide range of Paul's musical, artistic, literary, social and leisure interests and how is always exploring new avenues - except many changes in his setlists! As Bob Dylan told Rolling Stone magazine in 2007: “I’m in awe of McCartney … He can do it all. And he’s never let up.” I did not expect to discover Paul and I share a love of dinghy sailing: my dinghy is named Wanderlust while Paul sails a Sunfish dinghy named Linda. What I found striking in that Paul's career path choices are driven by serendipity and inter-connections between friends and acquaintances. For example, Paul came to know Ian Dury during the final months of his life through their shared friendship with the artists Peter Blake and Humphrey Ocean. But at times, when Paul sensed a big change was needed, he had the courage to do so: taking up the commission for Ecce Cor Meum; the Twin Freaks and the Fireman projects; turning to Nigel Godrich in 2003-05 to produce Chaos and Creation in the Backyard; and changing management and leaving EMI in 2007 for the Starbucks-backed Hear Music in 2007.
JPGR&B SUBS 20th Jul 2024		Book Joe Robinson - Journey Into Beatledom	From Amazon: The Beatles, a rich topic to explore with their legacy and impact on music. There's so much to unpack about the lyrical themes and musical composition of their songs. Here we look at the context of when each song was written, the personal experiences that inspired the Beatles and their social and cultural impact. Did you know, The Beatles were futuristic prophets who actually wrote about quantum physics and the nature of reality? For example, the Lennon lyric 'nothing is real' is an epithet from Niels Bohr which is often used as a reference to the philosophical implications of quantum physics and how our understanding of reality can be called into question. McCartney wrote Here, There and Everywhere which describes the process of superposition, a core concept of quantum physics, referring to how a particle can exist in multiple states at the same time. His song The fool on the hill refers to Buckminster Fuller, a philosopher and futurist who was known for his unique perspective and innovative ideas. Fuller's ideas could certainly be seen as "foolish" by the mainstream, so it's not a stretch to say that The Beatles may have been inspired by him when writing The Fool on the Hill. The Beatles were channelling these concepts in their songs, their creative process was tapping into the collective unconscious. Their Indian Vedism too, the ancient Hindu philosophy, does have some parallels with quantum physics, such as the idea of the interconnectedness of all things and the non-dualistic nature of reality. In Maxwell's Silver Hammer, McCartney again was referring to James Clerk Maxwell, a 19th-century physicist who was one of the founders of classical electromagnetism and made significant contributions to the understanding of light and colour, theories which can be seen as forerunners of Quantum Mechanics. The numerous examples of interconnectedness in Beatle songs are explored throughout this Journey into Beatledom, including the Lennon gem Tomorrow Never Knows, otherwise known as The Void. Liverpool too is a quantum City because, (seen in this light), it is neither one thing nor another. A City bound together by its own solidarity but separated from the rest of England because of its often recondite contrariness. It is in this sense, itself a quantum phenomenon.
