#73 - Blackbird with Allan Kozinn (author, The McCartney Legacy)
McCartney's ability to craft the most capitvating, simple, and gorgeous melodies never fails to amaze. Conceived (we think/he tells us) as a song of encouragement and support for the civil rights movement, in full swing by 1968, "Blackbird" has become one of Paul's signature songs. It was the title of his poetry collection. It's one of the most tattoo'd Beatle lyrics and imagery. It's one of his best, and he knows it, and we know it. Joining us this week is Allan Kozinn, co-author of the brilliant McCartney Legacy book series. Vol.2 dropped at the end of 2024...

The McCartney Leagacy, vol. 2 - Allan Kozinn and Adrian Sinclair
The McCartney Legacy volume 2 was released in December of 2024. It made my January a lot more fun... After reading volume 1 I was anticipating this second volume, covering the years from 1974 - 1980, with much excitement. It did not dissapoint. In every way this book contiunues the Paul McCartney story in the same fine way that Volume 1 did. Entertaining, colourful, surprising and full of great music from the start in 1974 to the experience in Japan in 1980. With over 700 pages this book gives so much insight into the life of McCartney in one of his arguably most interesting p...

Allan Kozinn & Adrian Sinclair - 'McCartney Legacy Vol 2'
I'm delighted to welcome Allan Kozinn and Adrian Sinclair back to the pod to discuss Volume 2 of their McCartney Legacy series. Volume 2 covers Paul's life from1974 up until the start of 1980 and is researched in the same fascinating detail as Volume 1 was - for this conversation I wanted to focus on what happened to Paul and Wings after their 1976 World Tour concluded, he'd reached the top of the mountain again - what happened next?

Things We Said Today #408 – Red, Blue and Underdubbed

Things We Said Today #324 – Kozinn Remembers
In earlier episodes, Allan has referred to some of his experiences interviewing people in the Beatles world during his years as the New York Times’ Beatles Desk, and Ken Michaels and Darren DeVivo occasionally joked that they should devote an episode to some of these. Perhaps hearing Allan’s Albert Goldman impression in episode 323 was what did it, but in any case, this turned out to be that show. With Ken and Darren prompting, Allan offers some memories of interviewing Paul, Ringo, Yoko, George Martin, Derek Taylor, Neil Aspinall and others. As always, we welcome your thoughts abou...

Episode #17 – ‘Twickenham Mind Games – George Walks, Yoko Wants a Mic'
What John Lennon described as "the most miserable sessions on earth" were recalled by George Harrison as "the low of all time". Yet, while such statements may have accurately reflected their respective mindsets, they also helped fuel widespread misconceptions about The Beatles’ January ’69 ‘Get Back’ project that evolved into the ‘Let It Be’ film and album. The fragmented, shoddily-edited Michael Lindsay-Hogg-directed ‘documentary’ has also played a significant role in spreading the negativity, as have certain self-acclaimed experts’ uninformed opinions because of their failure to listen to all of the tapes. For, therein lies a very different, far more rewarding sto...
