The paperback version of the bestselling Blackbird Singing includes several new poems and lyrics, including Freedom, which McCartney performed in New York City at a benefit concert last fall.
The publication of Blackbird Singing, the first collection of Paul McCartneys poems and lyrics, was an international cultural event celebrated in concert halls, at literary festivals, and in newspapers and magazines throughout the world.
While McCartney is of a completely different cast than Bob Dylan, his appeal may be even greater than that of the latter great poet-songwriter, wrote Publishers Weekly; The Guardian hailed McCartneys words as a remarkable feat of historical imagination.
The best-selling Blackbird Singing now includes several new poems and lyrics, including Freedom, which McCartney performed in New York City at a benefit concert last fall.
To actually read McCartneys poems, whether exuberant ballads of love or poignant messages of deepest grief, is to appreciate the electrifying power of the confluence of dream and song.
Inspired by his late wife, Linda McCartney, Blackbird Singing gives us extraordinary access to the inner life of one of the most influential figures of our time.
