304 Seiten über PAUL McCARTNEY von einem professionellen Vielschreiber über viele Rockmusiker (Keith Richards, Kate Bush, Elton John, R.E.M. and U2) – und nun eben ein Buch über PAUL McCARTNEY in den 1970er Jahren. Einerseits kann vorhandene Distanz zum Thema eine unvoreingenommene Betrachtung der 1970er Jahre bedeuten, andererseits hat der Autor mehrmal PAUL McCARTNEY getroffen und interviewt.
Es geht um die ersten zehn Solo-Jahre nach den BEATLES (bis zur Ermordung von JOHN LENNON). Die Herangehensweise an diese Dekade eher kritisch.
Pressetext:
The most famous living rock musician on the planet, PAUL McCARTNEY is now regarded as a slightly cosy figure, an (inter)national treasure. Back in the 1970s, however, McCARTNEY cut a very different figure. He was, literally, a man on the run. Desperately trying to escape the shadow of the BEATLES, he became an outlaw hippy millionaire, hiding out on his Scottish farmhouse in Kintyre before travelling the world with makeshift bands and barefoot children. It was a time of numerous drug busts and brilliant, banned and occasionally baffling records. For McCARTNEY, it was an edgy, liberating and sometimes frightening period of his life that has largely been forgotten. MAN ON THE RUN paints an illuminating picture: from McCARTNEY’s personal crisis following the BEATLES split through his apparent victimisation by the authorities to the rude awakening of his imprisonment for marijuana possession in Japan in 1980 and the shocking wake-up call of JOHN LENNON’s murder. Ultimately, it poses the question: if you were one quarter of the BEATLES, could you really outrun your past?
Tom Doyle is an acclaimed music journalist, author and long-standing contributing editor to “Q”, whose work has also appeared in “Mojo”, the “Guardian”, “Marie Claire”, “Elle”, “The Times” and “Sound on Sound”. Over the years he has been responsible for key magazine-cover profiles of PAUL McCARTNEY, Keith Richards, Kate Bush, Elton John, R.E.M. and U2, amongst many others. He is the author of “The Glamour Chase – The Maverick Life of Billy MacKenzie” (Bloomsbury 1998, Polygon 2011) which has attained the status of a classic rock biography since its original publication.
