Fans are chomping at the bit for the December 13th publication of The McCartney Legacy: Volume 1: 1969 – 73. The 720-page tome is written by authors Allan Kozinn and Adrian Sinclair and promises the most detailed and exhaustive analysis of Paul McCartney’s initial post-Beatles career — both in the studio and on stage.
According to the book’s official description:
Set against the backdrop of the Beatles splintering over both business and creative issues, The McCartney Legacy: Volume 1: 1969-73 covers a period in which Paul McCartney recreated himself, both as a man and as a musician. This is an in-depth and revealing exploration of his creative life beyond the Beatles — featuring hundreds of interviews with fellow musicians, tour managers, recording engineers, producers, filmmakers, and more.
The McCartney Legacy gives McCartney’s post-Beatles life and work the kind of in-depth treatment that Mark Lewisohn has given the Beatles, and Philip Norman has given John Lennon. It is the first truly comprehensive biography, and the most finely detailed exploration of McCartney’s creative life beyond the Beatles, ever undertaken.
