From Amazon:

With 25 albums of pop music, 5 of classical – a total of around 500 songs – released over the course of more than half a century, Paul McCartney’s career, on his own and with Wings, boasts an incredible catalogue that’s always striving 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 tours, covers, events:Paul McCartney. Music Is Ideas. The Stories Behind the Songs (Vol. 2) 1990-2012 traces McCartney’s post-Beatles output from 1990 to 2012 in the form of 250 song entries, filled with details about the recordings, stories behind the sessions and musical analysis. His pop albums, his forays into classical and avant-garde music, his penchant for covering old standards: a complete book to discover how these languages cross-pollinate and influence each other. Accompanied by images, drawing on interviews (including many conducted by the author) and contemporary reviews and enriched with QR codes for a multimedia experience, this reference book draws the portrait of a musical craftsman who has elevated popular song to an art form. The second volume in a series that has established itself as a unique guide to take the reader on a journey into the astonishing creativity of Paul McCartney.
