Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The sinister news that Paul McCartney had been decapitated in an automobile accident flooded American radio always in the fall of 1969. The idea that some 'hidden' conspiracy existed to hide the 'truth' from an unsuspecting public brought back repressed memories of the JFK assassination and the every day uncertainty of the Cold War. Some of the supposed death clues were hilarious, if not totally ridiculous, an obvious attempt to find any clue that would help substantiate the ghoulish rumor. However, some of the clues were obviously planted by the Beatles themselves, and to this day have remained unanswered. The search for the 'Paul Is Dead' clues really began with what the Beatles may have intended as their basis for The Magical Mystery Tour. So, let's all roll up for the mystery tour with our tickets held firmly in our hot little hand, and our eyes and ears sharply poised to pick up each and every clue that may for once and for all shed light upon the greatest unanswered riddle of Beatlemania--had Paul McCartney died in a mysterious automobile accident in 1966, and was he replaced with an imposter?

Download or read book The Greatest Mystery of the Beatles written by Sterling Harwood, PH D and published by . This book was released on 2020-07-29 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book solves the greatest mystery of the Beatles by describing and evaluating a record 166 Paul Is Dead clues that appeared after the Revolver album and before the Let It Be album. Why do so many people in the 21st Century still think that Paul McCartney died in 1966? The Beatles always denied putting "Paul is Dead" clues in their music or their artwork for albums. Yet close examination, sometimes including playing music backwards and using mirrors to look at artwork, shows up to 200 apparent clues. In the song "Glass Onion," Lennon sings "Here's another clue for you all: the walrus was Paul." So why are such clues present and what is the evidence that Paul McCartney died in 1966 and the Beatles covered it up for decades? What did Paul's wife, Heather Mills, mean when she suggested on national TV that she could unmask his dark secret by releasing a box of info if anything untoward should happen to her or their child together? Paul is either one of the most successful rock and pop musicians of all time to this day or he died in 1966 just a few years after achieving fame and fortune. This book weighs all of the available evidence and adds to the evidence by commissioning and revealing a new study by a law enforcement technique called Superrecognizers, something never before achieved in any of the other books in the mountain of books on The Beatles. Come and see the solution to the greatest mystery of The Beatles.
Download or read book Paul McCartney written by Peter Ames Carlin and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2009-11-03 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the acclaimed biographer who brought you the rock biography of Bruce Springsteen comes the life of musician Paul McCartney—from his groundbreaking years with the Beatles to Wings to his work as a solo artist and activist. More than a rock star, more than a celebrity, Paul McCartney is a cultural touchstone who helped transform popular music as one half of the legendary Lennon-McCartney songwriting duo. In this definitive biography, Peter Ames Carlin examines McCartney’s entire life, casting new light not just on the Beatles era but also on his years with Wings and his thirty-year relationship with his first wife, Linda McCartney. He takes us on a journey through a tumultuous couple of decades in which Paul struck out on his own as a solo artist, reached the top of the charts with a new band, and once again drew hundreds of thousands of screaming fans to his concerts. Carlin presents McCartney as a musical visionary but also as a layered and conflicted figure as haunted by his own legacy—and particularly his relationship with John Lennon—as he was inspired by it. Built on years of research and fresh, revealing interviews with friends, bandmates, and collaborators spanning McCartney’s entire life, Carlin’s lively biography captures the many faces of the living legend.

Download or read book Dreaming the Beatles written by Rob Sheffield and published by HarperCollins. This book was released on 2017-04-25 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An NPR Best Book of the Year • Winner of the Virgil Thomson Award for Outstanding Music Criticism “This is the best book about the Beatles ever written” —Mashable Rob Sheffield, the Rolling Stone columnist and bestselling author of Love Is a Mix Tape offers an entertaining, unconventional look at the most popular band in history, the Beatles, exploring what they mean today and why they still matter so intensely to a generation that has never known a world without them. Dreaming the Beatles is not another biography of the Beatles, or a song-by-song analysis of the best of John and Paul. It isn’t another exposé about how they broke up. It isn’t a history of their gigs or their gear. It is a collection of essays telling the story of what this ubiquitous band means to a generation who grew up with the Beatles music on their parents’ stereos and their faces on T-shirts. What do the Beatles mean today? Why are they more famous and beloved now than ever? And why do they still matter so much to us, nearly fifty years after they broke up? As he did in his previous books, Love is a Mix Tape, Talking to Girls About Duran Duran, and Turn Around Bright Eyes, Sheffield focuses on the emotional connections we make to music. This time, he focuses on the biggest pop culture phenomenon of all time—The Beatles. In his singular voice, he explores what the Beatles mean today, to fans who have learned to love them on their own terms and not just for the sake of nostalgia. Dreaming the Beatles tells the story of how four lads from Liverpool became the world’s biggest pop group, then broke up—but then somehow just kept getting bigger. At this point, their music doesn’t belong to the past—it belongs to right now. This book is a celebration of that music, showing why the Beatles remain the world’s favorite thing—and how they invented the future we’re all living in today.
