This examination of the solo music of Paul McCartney, from
1970-2007, offers an analysis of his songs, recordings, and his
impact on popular music. The Words and Music of Paul McCartney: The
Solo Years examines the large and varied oeuvre of this deeply
personal artist, showing how McCartney's stint as a Beatle
continues to inform his solo music, as well as how he has
transcended his days as a member of the Fab Four. After a
biographical introduction, chronologically arranged chapters
explore McCartney's music in the immediate aftermath of the breakup
of the Beatles, his work with Wings during the 1970s, his
collaborations with other artists during the 1980s, and his
compositions of the 1990s, including his first forays into
classical music. The examination also covers McCartney's critically
acclaimed work in the first decade of the 21st century, including
Memory Almost Full and Ecce Cor Meum, a composition written in the
style of sacred English choral music. Throughout, the book supplies
analytical insights and historical background to a repertoire that,
surprisingly, has not previously been covered in detail.
