Wings - the Story of a Band on the Run, Limited Edition

Wings

release date: Nov 04, 2025
Wings
“We made what seemed like an impossible dream come true.” —Paul McCartney An engrossing oral history of a band that came to define a generation, Wings: The Story of a Band on the Run tells the madcap story of Paul McCartney and his newly formed band, from their humble beginnings in the early 1970s to their dissolution barely a decade later. Drawn from over 500,000 words of interviews with McCartney, family and band members, and other key participants, Wings recounts—now with a half-century’s wisdom—the musical odyssey taken by a man searching for his identity in the aftermath of The Beatles’ breakup. Soon joined by his wife - American photographer Linda McCartney - on keyboard and vocals; drummer Denny Seiwell; and guitarist Denny Laine, McCartney sowed the seeds for a new band that would later provide the soundtrack of the decade. Organized chronologically around McCartney, RAM, and nine Wings albums, the narrative begins when a twenty-seven-year-old superstar, rumored to be dead, fled with his new wife to a remote sheep farm in Scotland amid a sea of legal and personal rows. Despite the harsh conditions, the Scottish setting gave McCartney time to create, and it was here where this new band emerged. Wings then follows the group as they play unannounced shows at university halls, tour in a sheared-off double-decker bus with their children, survive a robbery on the streets of Nigeria, and eventually perform blockbuster stadium shows on their world tour, all while producing some of the most enduring music of the time. With extraordinary recollections collected by Oscar-winning director Morgan Neville and edited into a genre-defining oral history by Ted Widmer, Wings transports the reader, as if on a magic carpet, to the grit and glamour of the 1970s. Pushing creative forms to produce a new history, even a Wings bible, the book refracts a bygone era in a totally new light. Introduced with a personal, heartfelt foreword by McCartney, the volume contains 150 black-and-white and color photographs, many previously unseen, as well as timelines, a gigography, and a full discography. Wings: The Story of a Band on the Run emerges as a work of soaring originality that presents a new art form all its own.

1964

1964
“Millions of eyes were suddenly upon us, creating a picture I will never forget.” —Paul McCartney Taken with a 35mm camera by Paul McCartney, these largely unseen photographs capture the explosive period, from the end of 1963 through early 1964, in which The Beatles became an international sensation and changed the course of music history. Featuring 275 images from the six cities—Liverpool, London, Paris, New York, Washington, D.C., and Miami—of these legendary months, 1964: Eyes of the Storm also includes: • A personal foreword in which McCartney recalls the pandemonium of British concert halls, followed by the hysteria that greeted the band on its first American visit • Candid recollections preceding each city portfolio that form an autobiographical account of the period McCartney remembers as the “Eyes of the Storm,” plus a coda with subsequent events in 1964 • “Beatleland,” an essay by Harvard historian and New Yorker essayist Jill Lepore, describing how The Beatles became the first truly global mass culture phenomenon Handsomely designed, 1964: Eyes of the Storm creates an intensely dramatic record of The Beatles’ first transatlantic trip, documenting the radical shift in youth culture that crystallized in 1964. “You could hold your camera up to the world, in 1964. But what madness would you capture, what beauty, what joy, what fury?” —Jill Lepore

1964: Augen des Sturms

release date: Jun 13, 2023
1964: Augen des Sturms
Ein unglaublicher Schatz von knapp eintausend Fotos, von Paul McCartney mit einer 35mm Kamera aufgenommen, wurde 2020 in seinem Archiv wieder entdeckt. Sie dokumentieren auf eindringliche Weise die Monate gegen Ende 1963 und die Anfänge des Jahres 1964, als in Großbritannien die Beatlemania ausbrach und die vier Beatles nach dem ersten Besuch der Band in den USA die berühmtesten Menschen der Welt wurden. Die Fotos zeigen McCartneys persönliche Sicht dieser explosiven Zeit, als die Beatles das Geschehen aus dem Zentrum des Sturms heraus betrachteten, sozusagen dessen Augen wurden: «Eyes of the Storm». «Augen des Sturms» präsentiert 275 der von McCartney aufgenommen Fotografien aus sechs Städten, die die vier Beatles in diesen intensiven und legendären Monaten bereisten – Liverpool, London, Paris, New York, Washington, D.C. und Miami – dazu viele bislang unbekannte Porträts von John, George und Ringo. In seinem Vorwort und den Einleitungen zu den einzelnen Kapiteln erinnert McCartney sich an eine Zeit, in der «Wie soll man es sonst beschreiben – die Hölle losbrach», und er beschreibt eindringlich den Moment, in dem sich die Kultur wandelte und die 1960er Jahre wirklich begannen. «Die Kraft und die Liebe zu sehen, das Staunen über das, was wir erlebt haben, das diese Fotos einfangen, darum geht es. Das ist es, was das Leben so großartig macht.» Paul McCartney «Wenn man der Welt 1964 eine Kamera entgegenhielt, welchen Wahnsinn fing man damit ein, welche Schönheit, welche Freude, welchen Aufruhr?» Jill Lepore
