The British radio service has marked a group of rock and roll superstars to pay [...]

Meet The Beatles again. How will you celebrate the Pepper anniversary?

 
Over the next few days and weeks we will hear a lot of accolades thrown on our favorite group, and their vast body of work.  It really is an important and exciting time to be a Beatles fan.  Not only are we celebrating a musical legacy, marked with various anniversaries and milestones, but we are celebrating [...]

VIDEO: Paul thanks all of his fans.

In a follow-up to the online debut of his new video for “Dance Tonight,” Paul McCartney fans are treated to another small tidbit of video. Sir Paul can be seen in a short clip thanking all of his fans for watching the video for “Dance Tonight.” What a nice gesture.
We are all suckers for even the [...]

Leave a birthday message for Paul at your favorite Starbucks.

Well you can’t say that the new Starbucks label isn’t trying.  They certainly are at least attempting to create some kind of buzz around for Paul McCartney’s upcoming albums.   There are exclusive listening parties around the globe, secret websites, free lithographs, rumored McCartney promo appearances,  youtube video singles and even, no joke,  an appearance by Paul on [...]

Yoko Ono seeks eternal youth.

No, this article is not a joke.  No, there is not satire going on here.  Much like Ponce de Leon before her, Yoko is in search of the fountain of youth.  It’s not enough that a new crowd of indie hipsters dig her music.  It’s not enough that her newest batch of albums have been [...]

Heather Mills – “I want my Beatle back.”

I just don’t trust her at all.  Maybe Heather Mills really does want to take another go at her marriage, but there is something there that I really just don’t trust.  I know there have been recent reports of Paul and Heather cooling off their divorce proceedings for the sake of their young daughter Beatrice, but once [...]

David Kahne talks about Memory Almost Full.

It looks like David Kahne is talkint turkey about all things McCartney lately.  We had recently heard an audio interview with him on Breakfast with  the Beatles.  I cannot tell you how much we love hearing all of these tales about working with McCartney.  We get the opportunity to hear how the master works first-hand. 
These glimpses are [...]

McCartney says Lennon was the best.

There are some nostalgic bits on Paul McCartney’s new album coming out in two weeks. I guess he has been looking back a bit and becoming more and more nostalgic for the past as time goes on.  Word cannot even begin to describe the creative power of the collaboration between Lennon and McCartney, but you [...]

Pitchfork interviews Paul McCartney

The indie hipsters are listening.  It seems that after all this time even with some of the hits and misses of the McCartney solo catalog it is hip to be a Paul McCartney fan.  The ultra hipster indie kids over at Pitchfork are taking notice  in a new McCartney interivew.  Apparently, his indie credentials have [...]

Solo McCartney downloads a no-show on itunes.

I don’t get it.  First, the McCartney solo catalog is listed to be released on itunes, then it is not.  I wish they would make up their minds already.  I guess the whole Beatles/Apple, Apple/Apple thing is just a hairy beast.  Personally, I really don’t care which online seller releases these beauties. I think the important step is [...]
