'No other book has come close to capturing so well what Paul McCartney is about, nor described so vividly his mental breakdown when the Beatles separated, nor his need for Linda to nurse him back to good health . . . fascinating; an extraordinarily brilliant book.' SIMON NAPIER-BELL
'One of the BEST Macca books out there: well written and well researched.' - READER REVIEW ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
'A really insightful portrait of someone we all think we 'know'. A beautiful portrait (not before time) of Linda and how she held her family together in Paul's wilderness years. Fascinating' - READER REVIEW ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
No comprehensive biography of the time Paul McCartney spent with Wings has ever been published. A period often dismissed as McCartney's 'missing' years, in fact the band lasted for a decade: two years longer than the Beatles, and wielded such impact and influence that they at one point achieved the status as the biggest live band in the world. Band on the Run sold over 6 million copies worldwide and became EMI's biggest selling album of the 1970s in the UK.
Music biographer Lesley-Ann Jones has met McCartney many times and knew his late wife Linda. Here she shows how crucial Linda was to the evolution of Wings - at great cost to herself given the ridicule she was to encounter. But Linda saw that McCartney needed the band in the wake of the break up of the Beatles.
Drawing on extensive interviews and her trademark meticulous research, the author shows how this period in Paul McCartney's career was to become crucial not only to his development as an artist, but to his very survival.©2023 Lesley-Ann Jones
