Ok — turns out I had a lot more to say about Paul McCartney than I expected. So this is the first of two episodes about ol’ Paul.

This week, we start in 1960 and trace his work and influences as he grows from a sweet little songsmith into a master arranger and producer — all the way to peak power during Sgt. Pepper.

We look at what motivated him, what inspired him, and how he got so good.

What fun. Enjoy.
