Paul McCartney is one of the best pop bassists in the world, and he was at a creative peak during the time he played with The Beatles. This new book presents a fresh musical analysis of his consistently inventive and influential bass playing of that period.
Drawing on a special interview with McCartney, the book tells the full story of his role as bass player in The Beatles, from the first single, Love Me Do in 1962, to the last album, Let It Be in 1970.
All bass players owe a debt to Paul McCartney's groundbreaking and revolutionary work with The Beatles, and for the first time this book shows exactly why.
