De lyrics - Nederlandstalige editie
Van 1956 tot nuDe Lyrics: Een prachtig uitgevoerde muzikale biografie bestaande uit 2 gebonden delen in een linnen cassette. Met 154 songteksten, meer dan 600 beelden, inclusief handgeschreven songteksten, brieven en nooit eerder vertoonde foto’s. In dit fenomenale en intieme boek brengt Paul McCartney zijn leven en werk tot leven door de lens van 154 songteksten uit alle fases van zijn carrière – van z’n allereerste composities en zijn legendarische decennium bij The Beatles, tot Paul McCartney and Wings, zijn soloplaten en het heden. Voor de allereerste keer deelt McCartney de definitieve versies van al zijn teksten en beschrijft de omstandigheden waaronder ze geschreven zijn, de mensen en plekken die ter inspiratie dienden en hoe hij er nu op terugkijkt. De lyrics vertelt het definitieve verhaal van de man achter de artiest, zijn creatieve proces, het uitwerken van de tijdloze melodieën en zijn samenwerking met John Lennon, George Harrison en Ringo Starr. De stem en persoonlijkheid van Paul McCartney weerklinken op elke pagina. In combinatie met een schat aan nooit eerder vertoonde proefversies, brieven en foto’s uit McCartneys persoonlijke archief is De lyrics de ultieme collectie van een van de grootste songwriters aller tijden. Onder redactie en met inleiding van dichter en Pulitzerprijswinnaar Paul Muldoon. 'Ontelbare keren is mij gevraagd om een autobiografie te schrijven, maar het moment was nooit daar. Het enige dat ik altijd ben blijven doen, of het nu thuis is of onderweg, is nieuwe nummers schrijven. Ik weet dat sommigen, wanneer ze een bepaalde leeftijd bereiken, naar een dagboek grijpen om herinneringen op te halen, maar dat heb ik niet. Wat ik wel heb, zijn mijn liedjes, honderden, en ik heb geleerd dat die eenzelfde doel dienen. En ze omvatten mijn hele leven.' Paul McCartney, De lyrics

Wings
Het verhaal van een Band on the RunPaul McCartney vertelt het verhaal van Wings – inclusief meer dan 150 foto’s Wie Paul McCartney zegt, zegt naast The Beatles natuurlijk ook Wings. In dit boek vertelt Sir Paul eindelijk zelf het ware verhaal achter de band waarmee hij bewees dat er leven is na The Beatles. In Wings neemt McCartney ons mee in de onwaarschijnlijke geschiedenis van de formatie van de band in 1971 tot aan het einde, bijna tien jaar later. Samen met vermaard muziekhistoricus Ted Widmer blikt hij terug op het begin van het post-Beatlestijdperk en de ongekende opkomst van zijn nieuwe band. Aan de hand van negen legendarische Wings-albums brengt McCartney de avonturen van de band opnieuw tot leven: van een straatroof in Nigeria en verrassingsoptredens op universiteiten tot hun tours in een open dubbeldekker met de kinderen op de achterbank. En dat alles terwijl de band enkele van de grootste hits uit de geschiedenis maakte. Sir Paul McCartney werd in 1942 geboren in Liverpool. Op veertienjarige leeftijd schreef hij zijn eerste nummer, waarna hij met The Beatles en daarna als soloartiest en met Wings uitgroeide tot wereldster. Hij is de auteur van De lyrics en 1964: Eyes of the Storm. Ted Widmer is historicus, schrijver en muzikant en schrijft voor onder andere The New York Times, The New Yorker en The Washington Post. De pers over De lyrics: ‘Het tweedelige, 912 pagina’s tellende boek De lyrics ziet er fantastisch uit, boordevol foto’s en handschriften van McCartneys liedjes.' NRC ‘De songs brengen herinneringen boven aan het ontstaan van de liedjes, maar ook aan de belangrijke gebeurtenissen in die tijd. [...] Door de omvang en gedetailleerdheid komt De lyrics het dichtst in de buurt van een autobiografie van een Beatle.’ OOR

Wings
An engrossing oral history of a band that came to define a generation, Wings: The Story of a Band on the Run tells the madcap story of Paul McCartney and his newly formed band, from their humble beginnings in the early 1970s to their dissolution barely a decade later. Drawn from over 500,000 words of interviews with McCartney, family and band members, and other key participants, Wings recounts-now with a half-century's wisdom-the musical odyssey taken by a man searching for his identity in the aftermath of The Beatles' breakup. Soon joined by his wife - American photographer Linda McCartney - on keyboard and vocals; drummer Denny Seiwell; and guitarist Denny Laine, McCartney sowed the seeds for a new band that would later provide the soundtrack of the decade.Organized chronologically around McCartney, RAM, and nine Wings albums, the narrative begins when a twenty-seven-year-old superstar, rumored to be dead, fled with his new wife to a remote sheep farm in Scotland amid a sea of legal and personal rows. Despite the harsh conditions, the Scottish setting gave McCartney time to create, and it was here where this new band emerged. Wings then follows the group as they play unannounced shows at university halls, tour in a sheared-off double-decker bus with their children, survive a robbery on the streets of Nigeria, and eventually perform blockbuster stadium shows on their world tour, all while producing some of the most enduring music of the time.With extraordinary recollections collected by Oscar-winning director Morgan Neville and edited into a genre-defining oral history by Ted Widmer, Wings transports the reader, as if on a magic carpet, to the grit and glamour of the 1970s. Pushing creative forms to produce a new history, even a Wings bible, the book refracts a bygone era in a totally new light. Introduced with a personal, heartfelt foreword by McCartney, the volume contains 150 black-and-white and color photographs, many previously unseen, as well as timelines, a gigography, and a full discography. Wings: The Story of a Band on the Run emerges as a work of soaring originality that presents a new art form all its own.

Wings
The Story of a Band on the RunCompelling ... a portal into a more eccentric age of pop, a fable about the tension between celebrity and creativity, and a story with elements of Spinal Tap and Wacky Races... it tells the story of one of the most successful bands of the 1970s – and one of the strangest. Under McCartney’s contrarian, impulsive, endlessly generative leadership, it blended imperial rock grandeur with a homemade ethos and a certain stoned nonchalance
