Andrew, loved the way you said “Tough!” . The UK box cover is much better than the US box. “It ain’t easy being green.....”
Yup, a dust jacket. Wow! That must have cost a tenner alone. Great value Paul. Tough! Well it's for the Xmas market which means after a snowfall we can use it as a sledge. Or a weapon.
Thank you Andrew for this is s definite plus. Two comments I would like to make.
First, I am so glad Paul included songs that over decades have been somewhat over-criticised, namely Ebony and Ivory. Ram and other albums have been reassessed for the magnificent albums and ground breaking territory they chartered. Some others have material, in my mind anyway, have been unfairly maligned. With Ebony and Ivory is a case in point. People calling it saccharine, simplistic, twee etc... We All Stand Together is another (although I didn't look hard enough to see if it was included in the book). Both these examples were massive hits and are still listened to today. Ebony and Ivory may be considered simple, but perhaps this is where individual prejudice comes into play. For each person who makes such a claim there will be another they could counter argue that perhaps this is the whole point. If we want peace in the is world just maybe we need to get back to basics and stop over-politicising and complicating what should come naturally. After all John sang Give Peace a Chance and not a manifesto. Yes I know he did more with the classic 'Imagine'. Besides this Ebony and Ivory has a beautiful melody and a killer hook. It is a well crafted composition of pure pop delight. As for the often named 'Frog Song' I have never understood why it is 'bagged'. For goodness sake it was written as a children's song and as such, especially with the superb animation accompanying video, it is an absolute winner. And for those older, or like me much older I can still enjoy it myself for it is a delightfully imaginative and such a sweet piece. In today's dark and gloomy world it is the optimistic buoyancy of Paul McCartney will need.
My second point is to acknowledge and agree with Andrew on this views about the recent media lack of knowledge and respect towards Paul. The latest McCartney bashing seems to have hit the youtube airways in overdrive by individuals who have obviously either very poor knowledge of the Beatle or worse none at all. Many, not all of these people then default to the all familiar John could do no worng mantra. Anyone remotely a Beatle fan knows that John quit the Beatles first. It is a known fact and has been for decades. How can the modern media get this so wrong? A news breaking story,... what absolute nonsense. Again, sharing Andrew's point on the lyrics to a particular song. As he rightly points out the obvious,...only John and Paul would know and guess what? People can have recollections that differ. Especially over an 80 year period. Both John and Paul are geniuses and like every other human on the planet had their faults. However these were hugely overweighed by their brilliance and incredible chemistry. On the latest Get Back doco, there is a part where John smiles at Paul and says,...'in the end all we have is each other'. It is a beautiful tender moment where an entire book who never cover the power of the moment. A lovely coda to 'and in the end the love we take....'
Recently on a youtube video I posted that John was the first to say he wanted to quit and that this is historical knowledge. I did not say anything negative about John or even imply anything even slightly of a critical disposition. John to me is a genius responsible for some of the most beautiful music in history. However, I got more replies from that one little comment than anything I have written online. Tragically most of the feedback was highly aggressive and most of it wrong. This has always been a difficult situation for Paul to balance and deal with. How can you tell facts from the past when the other genius becomes iconised and turned into a saint. Something Paul says John never would have wanted.
Part of me wonders if Paul undertook this approach partly to avoid such horrid ridicule and blame tossing. Sadly due to John not being here with us we only have Paul to review and articulate his songs and the meaning they have for him. We can't blame Paul for this. This is one half of the best song writing partnership probably since the Gershwin brothers. This is the man who lost his best friend to a deranged murderer. This is a man that despite so many hardships, and yes I include Heather Mills in this, and of course the loss of the love of his live with Linda's passing, has always managed to keep going. Paul has maintained a positive and creative flow throughout his entire life and to be still doing so is an achievement in itself.
I hope that this book, which Andrew has done a superb job reviewing, helps address some of the unfair criticisms Paul has had to endure over a lifetime. Sadly I feel the day we lose Paul a lot of critics will overnight turn into Macca fans. To those people I say appreciate everything McCartney has done for this world now. Read this book, listen to his interviews, watch John smile and say those words, remember John saying Paul is his best friend and let's all be grateful and celebrate the life of a living legend.
Great comment! A lot to unpick there but agreed with all.
Great comment! A lot to unpick there but agreed with all.
Totally agree! It's like critics are waiting for Paul to die before they say something nice about him! I think he's one of the greatest musicians ever!
@@dgsquare Thank you Andrew. You probably have worked out by now that I have a tendency to waffle on and on. On this occasion I can answer your kind reply with two words: SPOT ON!
Two comments? Thank god you kept it brief! The day we lose THIS Paul many wallets will rest easy. For me now, Paul died after the Anthologies. He is just a money making monster since. Past 20 years, once or more a year he's been flogging us something. I've got all the Beatles output 4 times over. It's these past 10yrs where it's top heavy prices like a 6cd Let it Be special at over £100. Many young fans who love Paul are forking it out as they feel they must. Paul does a lot of social media selling & enticing. He captivates them & then💥Pow! he's got 'em by the short & curlies. It disturbs me, really does. What has happened to our cuddly Paul? He was happy with singles & albums & now it's all this stuff every year & big big prices. What's coming next year Paul? Send for Batman!
Fabulous presentation as always ! Thank You Andrew Dixon, cheers & Happy New Year's Beatles releases !
Getting the book for Christmas. And plan to read at least Volume 1 over the holidays
I just ordered this for Christmas so my wife can gift it to me.😆
Andrew thank you so much for doing this- I also really appreciate you addressing the two issues from the press about John breaking up the group and the day in the life lyrics - being a Beatles fan since 1986-87 when I was 13 none of this information is new and it’s preposterous that this is in the news as - gasp! How dare he?
Anyway I always love and appreciate your videos
Thanks!
What a nice guy are you. I love the unboxing and the words. Regards from Mexico
Thanks Andrew for sharing. I am picking mine up tomorrow when I go to see Paul at the Southbank Centre in London - I can't wait!
Brilliant, enjoy!
@@AndrewDixonMusic thanks Andrew. Keep up the good work 👏
Great review - I will be getting mine nearer to my birthday in November.
The book looks fabulous. I hope to get it as a Birthday or Christmas present. 🙂📘
Not from me child!
It was a Christmas present to myself,buying it on Boxing Day.
THIS IS ONE OF THE BEST UNBOXINGS I’VE SEEN, AMAZING JOB ANDREW!!!😃👍☮️❤️
Thank you 🙂👍
C'mon, he just took it out of the box & lovingly or slave-ly yabbered for 17mins about it. No big deal here.
@@AndrewDixonMusic no. Get a life.
@@seltaeb9691 I'll get a life when you learn some manners.
@@seltaeb9691 come on man don’t be so rude, this guy is the best beatle you tuber on UA-cam
Love your video Andrew. I’m in the states but think I’ll order the UK version if it’s not too much more than $60 USD. I was on the fence about this book but I’ve heard so many wonderful reviews, I think I’ll get it, especially hearing your video. Thanks so much!
I purchased this book on Friday and have not been able to put it down all weekend. Absolutely love this beautiful book and would highly recommend it. Great read.
You must have strong arms as it is quite heavy.
I sat opposite Jane Asher on the tube once ...and on the same night saw her appear in An American In Paris at The Dominion.
Can't wait to get my hands on a copy, which I will do on Friday when I attend the Southbank Centre to see the great man himself discuss the book. Fingers crossed he answers my question I have submitted. Excited!!!
Brilliant, enjoy!
Jesus, he's going all out for sales on radio TV any which way. He's such a capitalist now American style. A money making monster. I'll probably end up buying it. Once it's sold out it's gone & waiting for sales time may make you miss out. I wanted his Wings sort of anthology book & waited till January, I mean it was a tenner & they were all gone & it's so hard to get hold of one on eBay. He makes no concessions. Never knowingly undersold is our' Paul's motto..
@@seltaeb9691 if you don’t like Paul that much why are u here? Every single comment you’re here blabbing about how he’s does this for money and stuff like get over it he’s not holding you at gunpoint to buy it
Thank you Andrew wonderful job
Hey Andrew, very happy to see and hear your review. I am waiting for the book and I do hope that there will be no delay. German amazon delivery date is Nov 12th, fingers crossed.
Hi Andrew, thanks for this video. Mine arrived this past Monday and it's very impressive. Glad we got the UK version here. Happy that you're not buying into the ridiculous controversies surrounding this book or Paul's dialogue. I'm in the throes of packing for a house move so it probably wasn't smart buying it now but I had pre-ordered it 2 months or so ago on Amazon Australia and had sort of forgotten about it, what with everything going on around me at the moment. I wanted to compare its size to the Lewisohn book boxed edition but it's packed up with all my other books. Anyway take care mate. Cheers. 👍😎
He's become cd/vinyl/book preying machine on the loyal Beatles fans. This is his worst year. He's like Dracula who sucks & feeds on our wallets.
@@seltaeb9691 well you can not buy it. The choice is yours... and ours... after all.
Looks great
Hey Andrew, I got my copy from Waterstones and it came with a black bag with the lyrics to “band on the run” printed on it as well as poster and bookmark…awesome book :-)
My copy just arrived- yes, the US cover is definitely different from the UK- what’s most important is the content inside. Will be enjoying this read for quite sometime. ( btw- was playing Macca records today in the anticipation of this book).
Little alert notice. Some stores are selling this with different packaging. Interestingly this version has a different cover case with a dark green cover case and the two books standing back to back to make Paul's face. I prefer the more common version that Andrew had presented. It is on booktopia where you can see the other type.
Can't wait.
Just ordered it😊
I’m in the US and I opted out of the green/vegan version for the Chaos/UK version. It arrived in perfect condition. I love the book. Similar to George’s I Me Mine book which is great.
I like the slipcase of the UK version better than our American one. So I've ordered a copy from across the pond 😃. Looks to be a great set of books!
Would like one as well. Is it expensive?
Sou brasileira e achei o livro do Paul,maravilhoso!
I want this book!!!
It's yours for £60.
Great vi.deo thanks very much andrew I will be getting this as a Christmas present from my sister and can't wait.
I am really hoping I get this book for my birthday on 12/24 and then the Get Back book for Christmas--that would be a great two days!
Another book, Get Back! Bloody hell Paul. Families are striving & you give us Let it Be 6cd/vinyl at over £100, this book at nearly £70 & another book, hmmm🤔.. let's say £20. Paul you are a almost, or after this lot, billionaire & here we are struggling. It just feels importune I think. Can I have the books for £30 say? Just me, I won't tell anyone. I should have been a 1960s Rolling Stones fan, they're much less avaricious.
@@seltaeb9691 rings exists two and not only that but Paul does what fans ask for. He knows he doesn’t need more money but people ask for a autobiography he gives this. People asked for the let it be anniversary they got it
Hi Andrew, I picked up the Dutch version of the book today at the local bookstore and the Dutch one has a green cover, why that is I don't know, the German version also has a green cover I saw on the internet. I would also have preferred the cover with the photos on it, but that's how it goes, at least the books are the same:-) Enjoy your books.
Is it English or Dutch? Well we're not in the EU so the cover issue is a broadside from Paul.
Wow wow
I'm kinda digging the graphics on the box of the British publication more than the one here in the US which is a plain green box.
Fantastic video Andrew! Ive just got mine copy one day after watching it. Mine is the green cover, it looks great but also think the UK version with the picture on the cover looks better. Just for curiosity, is the UK version also printed in China?
Before I watch the rest of the video review i want to congratulate Andrew as for the World Record Attempt gold medal for speed reading.
"The Lyrics" book was so heavy to carry home.
Yes Sir! Lennon did quit first. Not sure why that’s controversial..
Thank you for the review!
Hi Andrew, what are the sizes in centimeters of this book? I already bought the book, but I don't know if there's a bigger version
Looks great! Thanks Andrew.
I got mine today from Barnes and Noble.
Yeah indeed! I saw too many comments about Paul being "disrespectful" for talking about John and the broke up. All we know (at least, the truly fans) that it was John and his motivation for moving forward with another things with his wife and, sadly, The Beatles wasn't important for him. Paul was acussed many years simply for announce he left The Beatles when all the members were so tired of being together but none of them dared to say it (Luckily, we can notice his truth watching the Get Back docuseries where everybody can notice Paul is the only one who want to keep moving forward and save the band).
About Jane Asher, I think the same: it would be nice if she could talk about her experiences with Paul someday. Honestly, I know Paul is married with Nancy and he got married two times before, maybe, this' one of the reasons she doesn't want to talk about her experiences: they had a "short relationship" (if we compare it with Linda's relationship and his current wife) so, maybe, it can be a little bit strange if she talks about a relationship they had 50 years ago, i guess so.
Wonderful video! You have an amazing collection! Definitely, The Lyrics is a must in whatever Paul's collection
Thanks Andy. Do you have a link to the bbc iplayer show you mentioned, called 'this cultural life'? I can't find it.

@@AndrewDixonMusic oh bbc sounds! Cheers mate!
Thanks for the video. Will wait a week to see if it comes down in price before ordering it for my better half to give me for Christmas.
I got mine for £38 - how low are you expecting it to go, given the RRP is £75 ? LOL
@@nathanthomas5133 Well done. Where did you buy it for €38?
I meant to say £38.
I’m in shock Andrew. My Amazon pre order actually arrived on release day for once😂
I’ve only had a quick glance at it and I think it’s amazing. Beautiful book.
Hey Andrew! Thank you for great video! I will definitely get the book. Whats your opinion on deluxe signed edition? Did you try to get one of these? MPL could send you one as present for all the hard work you did reviewing and promoting all beatle stuff. Greeting from Slovakia (Birthplace of Dezo Hoffman)
I didn't try for a signed copy, out of my price range!
Piece of cake!!
Watched already and enjoyed. I bought the book. And it’s fabulous. So thanks Andrew 🙏
I also got this today, I am very impressed, very good quality, definitely worth the price
So I was reading in the book where Paul says he wrote she said she said and I'm only sleeping.
How is the box of yours the Chaos and Creation picture but mine is the green "The Lyrics" box?
DIfferent covers in different countries
My copy should be waiting for me when I get home from work today. I see there’s different covers. The slipcase in the US from what I’ve seen is a bright green plain cover instead of a photo. Can’t wait to read it though. I just finished Get Back Saturday night, so ready for more to read.
Anyone know why which songs got chosen. I’ve noticed quite a few songs missing from the book
Thanks for posting this. My library will get this but wanted to see the design of the books!
It seems there are different designs outside the UK.
Well worth reading. I didn't feel he took any more credit than he earned. One thing comes across from start to finish: John Lennon is mentioned much more often than Linda McCartney, and though PM is well over Heather Mills, he hasn't yet got over losing Lennon. There's a lot of ambivalence about JL in this book, which is a revelation itself.
Contrary to popular opinion, I prefer the green slipcase.
Hi Andrew quick question does this book have lots of text or mostly pictures?
Hi, there is lots of text in this book and that's mainly what it is, but also many good photos,
@@AndrewDixonMusic also what’s the size for these, like average book size? Or like a lot bigger?
Thanks Andrew, I’m hoping I get this beautiful book for Christmas. It’s 99 dollars where I live and I’m only 14 so it’s kinda hard to get this stuff, how’s the book so far?
It's really good, I'm about half way through book 1, lots of things so far I've never Paul talk about
@@AndrewDixonMusic that’s awesome enjoy it
Another great video, Andrew. This item would make a nice complement to the McCartney Archive Deluxe sets.
Hi mate have you come across Steve Turners' Book -The Complete Beatles Songs (The stories behind every track written by the Beatles?)
I'm not familiar with that one Mike! Is it good?
@@AndrewDixonMusic Hi Andrew, yes, he only covers the actual songs that the"Boys" wrote and composed themselves while in the Beatles.I have the updated edition circa 2015. Steve Turner is a well known journalist who has had numerous connections with the Beatles. His first story appearing in one of the 1969 Beatles Monthly prior to the breakup, then working on the Beat Instrumental mag before interviewing John & Yoko at Apple HQ Savile Row. 20years later he met Paul. He was also a ghostwriter on Lindas' "Sixties:Portrait of a Decade" not only the story is given about each song but the lyrics are also included.It is well worth seeking out. Here in Aust it retails on line for aprrox. $40 so there it would be around 21Pounds.Well worth getting. He even includes songs in Anthology Albums 1-3 & at the BBC.
Sounds good. I assume he's the same guy that wrote "Beatles 66", I've read that, it's a really good book.
Can we have videos on opening Paul McCartney fan club emails? What the subject line is, what fonts to expect, the quality of HTML?
He's has since Anthologies never stopped. The Dust Cover bit was truly amazing & I am now fully Beatles educated.
Hi Andrew good review as usual, a question for you does it have the lyrics in the book for example cat call and all the songs Lennon and mccartney gave away Love of the loved etc .
Thanks. The most obvious "give away" song here is Goodbye. Also I Wanna Be Your Man if that counts. But not the ones you mentioned.
@@AndrewDixonMusic Thanks for the information and for replying to me I'm going to get the book now as well .
Have not ordered this yet, but will offcourse do this very soon! Great to be living in a time when we can get new products released by Paul McCartney!
i really think this is one of the best products MPL have produced in a while, like its up there with flaming pie's archive collection. im already halfway with book 2!
Would you recommend this Andrew. I’m seriously thinking of it. Think it looks a special read.
I would,.it's a great book and there seems to be some good special offers around at the moment (in the UK anyway...)
@@AndrewDixonMusic yes indeed, Amazon are doing it for £45 and I think the likes of Waterstones are offering £25 off.
Loved the vid Andrew! If i hadnt have spent up id be ordering this right now, Paul has grown on me this last year and this book would be perfect for me. Lets hope Father Christmas puts me on his nice list and brings it ms for christmas fingers crossed
OK, maybe someone can help me out with this. There are two different versions of Simple as That. The first version, apparently written in 1986, was on the 1993 Remaster of Pipes of Peace. The second version is on the Pipes of Peace Deluxe box set. In the new Lyrics book Paul has included the 1986 version. Does anyone know why that wasn't included in the Deluxe box set? Also, although I have the 1993 Remaster that includes Simple as That, did it get released at any other time, and is there a downloadble version?
I would guess that if the 86 version does get a new release (and I hope it does!) that it could be part of a Press To Play Archive Colection if one happens.
@@AndrewDixonMusic that makes sense. Why did they put it on the 1993 Pipes of Peace Remaster though? That version has never been released in America
@@TheSchemel That series of releases was renowned for putting bonus tracks in with the wrong albums!
The original release as far as I know was some kind of multi-artist anti heroin project album, not sure it's ever appeared anywhere else other than that and the 93 Pipes.
OK, because of my work schedule, I have barely looked at the book, but I noticed that their are a few songs missing. From a Lover to a Friend and Heather. He also doesn't say who the inspiration for Here There and Everywhere is.
These books don't include all of the songs he has ever written/released. That would be insane and the set would have to include many many more books! This collection features (I think) 154 songs.
@@MattTC1028 Thanks Matt. Yeah, I still have only skimmed through it. You're going to think that I am stupid, but I was under the assumption that it was going to have every song he has ever written. You just gave me a homework assignment. I am going to find out every song that didn't make the cut. Thanks again
Please don't suggest every song! For the Beatles buy Revolution in the Head, every song who did what on it & take your pick out of any Beatles lyrics books. Much cheaper.
Why does he completely ignore With a Little Luck? I'm not saying it's his best song, but it did hit number one. He won't play it live and now he won't even write about it. Odd to me I like it and I like that 78-79 era.
Andrew, will you do a video guessing the beatles band and beatles solo releases in 2022?
Definitely! Likely some time around Christmas/very early new year 🙂👍
Why is the graphics different on the box UK version then the US version? The UK version has the photo of Paul taken by his brother. The US version has no photo it's just green. Why the difference?
You want a biography for Paul(billy) read “memoirs of billy shears”
I realize I did not pay total attention, You already talk about the controversy with "a Day un the life"
Just enjoy the music.
Tough,indeed!!
I pre-ordered mine in February and I got an email from Amazon today saying they are postponing the delivery but cannot say when???? I am so down with Amazon, this is the third time it happens with very important items!!!!
That's annoying, am guessing you're not in the UK?
@@AndrewDixonMusic Canada.
Is it true the “a day in the life” controversy ?
Or Paul is just talking about his own part ???
Great video
Thanks.
It's true there's controversy. Paul is talking about the parts he claims to have written/helped with. I guess only he and John will ever know the truth.
@@AndrewDixonMusic ups ....You are right
Only them ( and sometimes they make mistskes )
Thx again !!!
So enjoyed this Andrew, anxiously awaiting my copy today. Know there will be a bit of controversy but this is something that to me is a must have. Enjoy your read. Take care.

(Lyric of song 'GOD' by John Lennon)
I know that this is an unavoidable situation - the one where everyone wishes a song was included. For me I would have loved to know about the lyrics to Riding to Vanity Fair and the classic bonus track Why So Blue. However seeing that would involve probably an entire bookcase of material I appreciate what we do get. Before this serial youtube pest signs off does anyone have any info or opinion or another McCartney book which covers 50 songs reviewed by Mike Evans? Would anyone recommend it? Thank you Macca fans.
Riding To Vanity Fair would also be my number 1 choice! I think there's a heck of a story behind that worth telling!
My birthday is coming up, so I will wait to see if someone got it for me, otherwise of course I will get it! Paul never disappointed! I share in your enthusiasm Andrew!!!
Was not planning on buying that book but due to Andrew's presentation, I will get it in the near future !!! Paul does seem to credit some of John's songs as his, but I can understand his memory with all that had gone on in his amazing life could be misconstrued. I do like how this book looks however !!!
Nothing to do with the book, but by the way keep up the excellent work, where did you get that cool lamp?
Thanks Bill, here's the story of the lamp 🙂 ua-cam.com/video/jYiQOGPJ-EQ/v-deo.html
Will have to come back and watch this at the weekend - avoiding 'spoilers' as my wife has 'intercepted' my copy that arrived today to hold it until my birthday on Friday. Gives me time to finish the Let It Be SDE book in the meanwhle though. 😀
Enjoy, and happy birthday for Friday!
So……. There is a difference between the UK and US outer covers?
It would appear so. I think the UK version looks much better.
@@AndrewDixonMusic I definitely agree
It's a great looking book, I'm very happy with it. I think your side of the pond got the much better slipcase, though!
I agree!
My copy comes tomorrow, £20 bargain
Hi Andrew, mine arrived today as well. I agree with everything you have said…it’s fabulous! Also, like you, I’m fed up with the moaners, just get over yourselves and enjoy for what it is. Quick question why have we in UK got the CACIBY cover and USA have a green slip jacket and different spine?
An excellent review ,glad you mentioned the Jane Asher references i look forward to reading those. The 'controversies' you deal with very well unlike some american reviews i have seen who go on in one particular case to say in a whole post they are not buying the book and do in the next post , which is tedious in the extreme!
Because he has us all by the short & curlies, like little monkees waiting for the next McCartney/Beatles Apple machine flogging. Paul our meagre wallets need a rest. Don't buy it & give Paul a message. You Capitalist Beatle you.
Just a few questions for anyone who could answer.
What the difference between the set with the green slipcase, and the one shown in this video???
And also, do you get the bang for your buck?? Please be honest and unbiased. What is the detail in the book? Any pictures, how long are the stories of the songs, etc???
The only difference is the outer cover, the contents are the same.
Personally I would say it's well worth it, especially at the price of under £50 it's often being sold for.
Some of the stories are fairly short, and others much more in depth than you might expect.
Some of the stories seem to be directly related to the song in question, and others are more around what was happening in his life at the time and the memories it invokes for him.
There's a lot in here you won't have read before.
@@AndrewDixonMusic Alright thank you!
I've seen a different cover box from this book., Yours has a pic of a young Paul , but I've seen others cover with no picture, there's a different edition?..

This has just been the worst day, I am crying while writing this because I order mines back in March and it said it arrived in my mailbox but when I went to look for it and get it, there wasn't anything there. It said was delivered today inside my box. Now I gotta figure out what to do next. I paid alot of money to get this.
Update: I have it now, turns out it was left at the post office.
I hope you manage to get a refund or a replacement, good luck.
@@AndrewDixonMusic Thanks. I appreciate it.
if u go tto audible u can hear paul talks bout the lyricks
Hi Andrew, I am curious to know if the slipcase cover is cloth covered or is it made of paper with the black & white photo printed on it? I like the use of the photo seen on the Chaos LP cover but do wonder what type of material it’s printed on.
Hi, it's a very thick sturdy cardboard box. Not material. 🙂👍
@@AndrewDixonMusic Thanks so much for your reply Andrew! Enjoyed your video!
Is there going to be a full version of the interview with Bob Mortimer? I’ve not seen anything other than the minute long trailers
I'm sure there must be at some point otherwise it seems like a waste of time.
We had flaming pie this year didn’t we?
That was last year 🙂👍
Geez you must have deep pockets 🎅 🇬🇧
Let it Be 6cd/vinyl over £100, Lyrics book £60, Get Back book I've heard £30 maybe. It never stops. It's not the Paul I know & love. He died after the Anthologies & this Paul burst forth £#£#£#£#£..
Is this the uk one
It is, I don't know whether any other countries also have this version. Should Oy be the outer covers that differ rather than the contents.
Hi Andrew, I think I prefer the cover you have over the green cover we got here in the u.s. oh well. I skimmed through the book today and like the way it is done except I would have preferred chronological order instead of alphabetical but that's a small quibble. The thing that surprised me was the inclusion of ticket to ride. John had said that was his song and Paul's contribution
Was the drum beat that ringo played.
Overall a great addition to all the Beatles books that have come out recently.
Would rather have had the Back to the Egg and London Town reissues. Price tag on the book is too high to tempt me to purchase. Maybe if this was volume one of his thoughts and recollections of all his songs to date and the price was about half, but for now I’ll save my money for musical releases.
Thanks Andrew. Great as ever. Has anyone else noticed the typos at the start of the book? One in Paul McCartney's intro & the other from Paul Muldoon's intro. Or have I got a rare copy that slipped passed the proof readers? Sothebys here I come! 💷💷💰😂
Please do another review of this book. Maybe a live show, so we could have everyone's opinion?
thanks for the video Andrew. i'll pass on this. Rather buy music
