Finally in paperback and featuring seven new song commentaries, the #1 New York Times bestseller celebrates the creative life and unparalleled musical genius of Paul McCartney. Spanning sixty-four yearsâ€”from his early days in Liverpool, through the historic decade of The Beatles, to Wings and his solo careerâ€”Paul McCartneyâ€™s The Lyrics revolutionized the way artists write about music. An unprecedented â€œtriumphâ€ (Times UK), this handsomely designed volume pairs the definitive texts of over 160 songs with first-person commentaries on McCartneyâ€™s life, revealing the diverse circumstances in which songs were written; how they ultimately came to be; and the remarkable, yet often delightfully ordinary, people and places that inspired them. The Lyrics also includes: Â· A personal foreword by McCartney Â· An unprecedented range of songs, from beloved standards like â€œBand on the Runâ€ to new additions â€œDay Tripperâ€ and â€œMagical Mystery Tourâ€ Â· Over 160 images from McCartneyâ€™s own archives Edited and introduced by Pulitzer Prize-winning poet Paul Muldoon, The Lyrics is the definitive literary and visual record of one of the greatest songwriters of all time.
