From the dust jacket flaps:

After over 40 years away from The Beatles, Paul McCartney’s solo career deserves to be studied as an achievement in its own right.

An enormous musical catalogue - with nearly 400 released compositions - that has been a source of inspiration for many generations of musicians and attracted legions of fans.

Through 383 song sheets, Paul McCartney: Recording Sessions (1969 – 2013) tells a story behind all of Paul McCartney’s written or co-written songs since the breakup of The Beatles. The journey through five decades of studio recordings, from the renowned Abbey Road Studios to Paul’s home in Cavendish Avenue in London, passing through exotic locations such as Lagos and the Virgin Islands, as well as legendary recording venues including New Orleans and Nashville.

The Most important composer of popular music of our era, Paul McCartney has a unique working method for writing and recording songs.

Drawing on 70 exclusive interviews with musicians, arrangers, producers and sound engineers who worked with him during his solo career, Paul McCartney: Recording Sessions (1969 – 2013) reveals a genius at work.

Although not a virtuoso, he can seemingly play anything, and has invented a new role for the bass. Although unable to read music, he intuitively knows how to achieve the most interesting sound of an orchestra and the best way to arrange a song. He's the master of catchy pop, but can cross any genre of music like no other, each time shaping it to his own trademark: the “McCartney style”.
