Paul McCartney by Peter Ames Carlin Book Summary

From the acclaimed biographer who brought you the rock biography of Bruce Springsteen comes the life of musician Paul McCartney—from his groundbreaking years with the Beatles to Wings to his work as a solo artist and activist.

More than a rock star, more than a celebrity, Paul McCartney is a cultural touchstone who helped transform popular music as one half of the legendary Lennon-McCartney songwriting duo. In this definitive biography, Peter Ames Carlin examines McCartney’s entire life, casting new light not just on the Beatles era but also on his years with Wings and his thirty-year relationship with his first wife, Linda McCartney. He takes us on a journey through a tumultuous couple of decades in which Paul struck out on his own as a solo artist, reached the top of the charts with a new band, and once again drew hundreds of thousands of screaming fans to his concerts. Carlin presents McCartney as a musical visionary but also as a layered and conflicted figure as haunted by his own legacy—and particularly his relationship with John Lennon—as he was inspired by it. Built on years of research and fresh, revealing interviews with friends, bandmates, and collaborators spanning McCartney’s entire life, Carlin’s lively biography captures the many faces of the living legend.

Paul McCartney: A Summary. Nothing new here. Pretty much a high-level summary of the man's life. Most McCartney fans could recite everything that's told here. The majority of anecdotes and stories have been told before, and most of Carlin's research is culled from the many Beatle and McCartney biographies that have preceded it. The original research done is mostly inconsequential and adds just the slightest color to events we're all familiar with. If you're looking for a very quick recap of the milestones in McCartney's life, I suppose this book will do. Otherwise, there is virtually nothing in here that hasn't been covered - often ad nauseam - before. Refer to Barry Miles's "Many Years From Now" (a source used heavily by Carlin) for better, more detailed accounts of much of what's included in here.

Great Read except one problem.. I originally downloaded the audio book which was faulty. Stopped playing about one quarter through the second half. iTunes refused to let me re download it without paying for it again so I bought the written version. Even once removed from cold hard cash, I was ripped off by iTunes. They stole my money. The only difference between them breaking into my house and stealing the book is that they can apparently get away with it. I was robbed with impunity. SHAME ON YOU ITUNES. YOU ARE THIEVES!!

Absolutely Amazing. I was a Paul McCartney fan before this book and an even bigger one now that I've read this. Great book about a great musician!
