Listening to What the Man Sang: The Casual Fan’s Guide to Appreciating Paul McCartney

Despite all we’ve heard from Paul McCartney as a musician and all that’s been written about his life, the songs and the person have usually been presented to us separately. Listening to What the Man Sang serves as a guided biographical playlist that combines the two and puts his creative output in a human context. It’s a career-spanning story–from his Beatles period to his latest solo output–that’s told fittingly through the lens of the man’s best work. All the while, it reflects on the experience of being a McCartney fan and invites the uninitiated to discover their own favorites.
