Meeting Room A room 154

Join Gary Wenstrup as he takes you on a journey exploring Paul McCartney's life after the Beatles.

The Guinness Book of World Records has recognized Paul McCartney as the most successful composer and recording artist of all time, but the road he traveled to get there wasn’t easy. McCartney was devastated when The Beatles broke up and struggled to move forward. There were missteps, but McCartney hit his stride and was riding high by the end of the decade.

Using interview and performance video clips Wenstrup will trace the arc of McCartney’s first post-Beatles decade from “Maybe I’m Amazed” and “Live and Let Die” to “Band on the Run” and “Listen To What The Man Says.” Considered “Silly Love Songs” to some, but pop/rock masterpieces to most.
