Paul McCartney: The Stories Behind 50 Classic Songs, 1970-2020 by Mike Evans

An in-depth look at the post-Sixties work of one of popular music's most versatile and prolific composers and performers.
A musician on the Sixties rock scene, Mike Evans began writing about popular music in the 1970s as a broadcaster in local radio and freelance writer, his work appearing in a variety of publications including Sounds, Cream, the Guardian, Elle and as a regular contributor to the UK's top music weekly newspaper Melody Maker. Since the late 1980s he has worked in book publishing (from 1989 to 2000 with Hamlyn/Octopus), commissioning and editing titles on rock 'n' roll, jazz, and popular culture. He wrote the much-acclaimed The Art of the Beatles (Muller Blond & White)in 1984, and the bestselling Elvis: A Celebration (DK) which he researched and wrote in collaboration with the Elvis Presley Estate in Memphis, and The Art of British Rock (Frances Lincoln) in 2010. Fleetwood Mac: The Definitive History (Sterling) was published in 2011, and in 2012 Neil Young (Sterling) and Ukulele Crazy (Anova). He lives and works in London, dividing his time between writing and a freelance editorial consultancy.
