About this product

Product Information

An unprecedented kaleidoscopic view into the creative process of one of the greatest songwriters of all time, the #1 New York Times bestseller The Lyrics includes: The now-standardized lyrics of 161 songs that span more than 70 years, from Paul McCartney's earliest songwriting days to the present, including beloved standards like "Blackbird" and "Hey Jude," post-Beatles classics like "Band on the Run" and "Live and Let Die," and seven songs added specifically for this paperback edition. In addition to intimate, autobiographical commentaries, more than 100 images from McCartney's personal archives, including handwritten lyrics sheets, letters, memorabilia, and many previously unseen photographs. A personal foreword, in which McCartney recalls the formation of The Beatles and candidly discusses his relationship with his parents, John Lennon, Linda Eastman, and a wide range of other people.

Reading The Lyrics is like standing in a master chef's kitchen as he prepares a dish, adding a dash of this and a spoonful of that and talking to us so winningly.... The Lyrics is able to cram in much more -- show posters, set lists, handwritten notes, group photos both staged and casual.... There's nothing like listening to Macca (as McCartney was known in his Liverpool days) talk about the rise of a band composed largely of working-class teens who changed the world forever.... Almost 60 years later, it's still an amazing story.... Muldoon interviewed him for hours and coaxed out these charming commentaries., Careening from decade to decade, and invoking John Lennon on the regular, it is likely the closest thing to a memoir McCartney will ever publish, with lyric sheets and a hefty number of unseen personal photos of his family and The Beatles., Indeed, The Lyrics easily represents the finest collection of illustrations associated with McCartney's life and work. And it's beautifully rendered, to boot. Drop-dead gorgeous as books go, The Lyrics rivals the finest art imprints., An unparalleled look at [McCartney's] creativity process... The breadth of his influences is astonishing., With a gravity, reverence and sense of occasion that hasn't been seen since the Levites rolled out the Ark of the Covenant, the complete lyrics of Paul McCartney are published at last., The Lyrics is a triumph. It is hugely readable, devoid of rock cliché, and full of fresh stories and opinions that even devoted fans won't have encountered before. The pictures of McCartney and of handwritten lyrics, many of them never previously published, are worth the entry ticket on their own and the quality of the boxed product makes it a tactile pleasure and fun to possess.... The Lyrics is McCartney at his best., To read over the words to these 154 songs is to be impressed not merely with McCartney's productivity but with the fertility of his imagination and the potency of his offhand, unfussy style.... The Lyrics makes clear that McCartney has written on a high level long past his Beatles years, and even the weakest lyrics in the books have a character all their own: a feeling of giddy playfulness and unguarded experimentation. They're a joy to read because they exude the joy their maker took in their making.... Over and over, McCartney shows how deeply he is steeped in literary history and how much his output as a songwriter has in common with the works of the likes of Dickens and Shakespeare.
