This indispensable guide offers full transcriptions (including tablature and chord names) of nine of McCartney's most revered bass parts: Dear Prudence, Drive My Car, In My Life. Lovely Rita and more. Each track is analyzed and explained in detail to show today's bassists how much they can still learn from McCartney's remarkable skill and imagination.

JPGR&B SUBS 20th Oct 2022		Review Annotation: Tony Bacon was previously editor of Beatles Gear, while Gareth Morgan is a professional bass player and teacher who contributes a regular 'Bass Workshop' column to Guitar magazine. This superb text is not only well written, but also beautifully produced with a coherent layout. The authors have completed a first-rate job of presenting McCartney's muse and music. Indeed they are able to show to bass players and Beatles fans, alike, just how the dynamics of his bass playing have contributed to the development of his songwriting. Not only is it a first-rate bass tutor, but is an informative and reliable historical text, to boot; as such this is a highly recommended text.
