When The McCartney Legacy Volume 1: 1969-73 was released, a number of readers contacted us as they were unconvinced that Henry McCullough actually played drums on ‘C Moon.’ This press release for Paul McCartney & Wings’ double A side (misspelling Henry’s name) confirms the story.

Just finished @mccartneylegacy.bsky.social Volume 2. An absolute triumph among Beatles literature and an incredible tour de force of research! It maintains the very impressive high standards of Volume 1 and contains an sheer avalanche of fascinating new information. Can't wait for Volume 3!

Paul McCartney wrote 'Girls' School' (the B-Side to 'Mull of Kintyre' in the UK) using the titles of pornographic movies that he found in a newspaper. Following the release of The McCartney Legacy Volume 2, we've been asked to share some of our research clippings, so here they are.

“‘Jet’ is representative of McCartney’s talent—there’s so much in it you don’t know where to start. There are abrupt changes of melody and pace which make it a very unusual single. A hit, of course.” -Rosemary Horide, Disc I love this quote in Book 2: @Mccartneylegacy.bsky.social #paulmccartney

Volume 2 of @mccartneylegacy.bsky.social is just as excellent as Volume 1. I know something about research and the hours you have to put in if you want to dig out new or long-forgotten facts – this book is chock-full of them. And it's still eminently readable. Kozinn and Sinclair deserve our thanks.

For context, The McCartney Legacy Volumes 1 and 2 combined are about the same size as Mark Lewisohn’s Tune In Extended Special Edition. As Allan put it yesterday “volume two is a big bugger!” Pre-order your copy of Volume 2: 1974-80 now for December 10 release!
