With 25 pop albums, 5 classical music albums and around 500 songs released over half a century, Paul McCartney's career, alone or with Wings, boasts a catalogue that has always sought to free itself from the shadow of the Beatles. The stories behind the songs, demos and studio recordings, unreleased tracks, recording dates, musicians, live performances and covers, the book traces McCartney's post-Beatles era from 1970 to 1989 through 346 song sheets full of details and anecdotes. Accompanied by photos, interviews, reviews and period information, this "reference book" traces the portrait of an artisan of light music, who has elevated the popular song to an art form.
