A life well lived
I am a child of the Beatles era and it was a joy to even place this before my eyes. The best $100 I have ever spent.

Sir Paul!
I just completed The Lyrics by Paul McCartney! This book is a treasure! If you love The Beatles, Wings and Paul by himself then you will this. It is not an autobiography proper but a dissection of Paul’s lyrics and what prompted him to write them. He shares his love of his family, friends, and of course The Beatles. If you take this book on you should also check out the car-pool karaoke that Paul did with James Corden. So good! I gave this 5 stars!

Good Reading
The lyrics and then some…this book is truly packed. I picked up this pair of books because I wanted to know more about the stories behind the songs of Paul McCartney. Now, I have to add the caveat that there are Lennon-McCartney songs as well, which is a nice bonus. Anything anyone wants to know about those songs, at least from Paul McCartney’s point of view is there. Stories, tales and even some tidbits. It’s quite nice because there’s no glazing over. He tells the stories. There are wonderful photographs as well and many illustrate the song through what he was doing at the time. I rather liked it. He has many of his own solo songs there as well. A few of the ones I would’ve liked to have known about were missing, but that’s okay. Can’t please everyone and there is enough here to please a lot! This is a big set of books and will take some time to go through, but if you’re a Beatles fan, a McCartney fan or just want to know the stories behind some great songs, then this is the set of books for you. originally posted at long and short reviews

Ehh its ok, but he left out a great song
If this song wasn't left out i would have, I really wanted this but he left out hello goodbye! A classic, just because his stubborn royal snout couldnt get over the history to put it in!!
