Official songbook of piano/vocal/guitar arrangements for all songs from McCartney III. Includes McCartney III CD. Written, composed, and produced by Paul McCartney. 50 years following the release of his self-titled first solo album McCartney, featuring Paul playing every instrument and writing and recording every song, Paul McCartney will release McCartney III on December 18th. Paul hadn't planned to release an album in 2020, but in the isolation of "Rockdown," he soon found himself fleshing out some existing musical sketches and creating even more new ones. Before long an eclectic collection of spontaneous songs would become McCartney III: a stripped-back, self-produced and, quite literally, solo work marking the opening of a new decade, in the tradition of 1970's McCartney and 1980's McCartney II. Recorded earlier this year in Sussex (UK), McCartney III is mostly built from live takes of Paul on vocals and guitar or piano, overdubbing his bass playing, drumming, etc. Atop that foundation. McCartney III spans a vast and intimate range of modes and moods, from soul-searching to wistful, from playful to raucous and all points between - captured with some of the same gear from Paul's Rude Studio used as far back as 1971 Wings sessions. And Paul's array of vintage instruments he played on the new album have an even more storied history, including Bill Black of Elvis Presley's original trio's double bass alongside Paul's own iconic Hofner violin bass, and a mellotron from Abbey Road Studios used on Beatles recordings, to name but a few. Just as McCartney's 1970 release marked Paul's return to basics in the wake of the biggest band break-up in musical history, and the 1980 avant-garde masterpiece McCartney II rose from the ashes of Wings, McCartney III finds Paul back on his own, turning unexpected circumstances into a personal snapshot of a timeless artist at a unique point in history. *Made In Rockdown*

  • Kreative Ideen, solide Songs

    Peter McCartney ist ohne Zweifel ein talentierter Musiker.

  • Na ja...

    Für Beatles-Fans durchaus ein Muss! Ansonsten eher ein durchschnittliches Pop/Rock-Album, welches kaum große Überraschungen aufweist. McCartney kommt in die Jahre und hat vom teilweise fast schief wirkenden Gesang stark auf die Unterstützung von anderen zurückgreifen müssen. Irgendwann sollte auch der nicht mehr ganz so begnadete Sänger wissen, wann Schluss ist. Wie wäre es zum Abschluss der Karriere mal mit einem gelungenen Instrumentalalbum?

  • Sehr Gut

    Einfach Unglaublich der grösste Musiker aller Zeiten! Kurzweilige CD. Find my Way, Deep Down, The Kiss of Venus, Slidin, Woman and Wifes (tönt wie J. Cash), Deep Deep Feeling alles coole Songs. Der Musiker der ueber all die Jahre der Leader aller Musiker auf dieser Welt war ist in die Jahre gekommen. Danke Paul das es dich immer noch gibt!
