Pressetext: In June 1989, Paul Du Noyer was contacted by PAUL McCARTNEY's office in London and asked to interview the star as they had met once before and enjoyed a good report. In the years that followed, Paul Du Noyer continued to meet, interview and work for PAUL McCARTNEY on a regular basis, producing magazine articles, tour programmes, album liner notes, press materials and website editorial. It's likely that Du Noyer has spent more hours in formal, recorded conversation with McCARTNEY than any other writer. CONVERSATION WITH McCARTNEY is the culmination of Du Noyer's long association with McCARTNEY and his music. It draws from their interview sessions across 35 years, coupling McCartney's own, candid thoughts with his observations and analysis. Beatles Museum: Nachdem Paul Du Noyer im Jahr 1989 positiv über PAUL McCARTNEY berichtet hat, wird er im Juni 1989 von McCARTNEYs Büro in London gefragt, ob er PAUL interviewen möchte. Von da an führt Paul Du Noyer etliche Interviews mit McCARTNEY und arbeitet (sporadisch?) für ihn im Bereich Pressearbeit, schreibt aber auch für Tourprogrammbroschüren. Das Interview, welches er mit McCARTNEY über dessen Album KISSES ON THE BOTTOM führt, ist Bestandteil des Booklets. (Das Album erschein im Februar 2012). Das Buch CONVERSATION WITH McCARTNEY beinhaltet Auszüge aus einigen der vielen Interviews, die Du Noyer in den letzten 35 Jahren mit McCARTNEY führte. (Im Pressetext wir DU NOYER als der Journalist genannt, der die meisten Interviews mit PAUL McCARTNEY geführt hat.)

The most controversial and overtly political song the Beatles had produced so far, it was created by John Lennon at a time of profound turmoil in his personal life, and in a year that was the turning point in the social and political upheavals of the 1960s. Lennon’s own ambivalence about his message, and conflicts about the song within the group, resulted in the release of two quite 241 different versions of the song. And public response to “Revolution” was highly politicized, which is not surprising considering its message and the timing of its release. In fact, an argument can be made that the re- ception of this song permanently changed the relationship between the band and much of its public. As we will see, the reception of “Revolution” reflected a tendency to focus on the words alone, without sufficient attention to their musical setting. Moreover, response to “Revolution” had much to do not just with the song itself but with public perceptions of the Beatles.

In both sound and imagery, pop music, particularly that of the Beatles, is a principal medium of memory for the period. For the period from 1965, the progressive aspects of pop music, particularly in sonic and lyrical complexity, expressed a retrospective, pastoral strain that was itself a form of memory of other periods and places, of childhood and country life. The Beatles double-A-sided single Strawberiy Fieldsforever/Penny Lane, released in February 1967, epitomizes these complexities in a suburban version of pastoral, recalling the Liverpool childhoods of songwriters John Lennon and Paul McCartney.

  • Early Beatles History: 1940-1964 Birth of the Beatles
    MOVIES ABOUT THE BEATLES Early Beatles History: 1940-1964 Birth of The Beatles In 1978, Elvis – The Movie premiered on American television. The pro- duction was a dramatization of Elvis Presley’s life, featuring Kurt Rus- sell as Elvis. His unexpected death the year before had revived the public interest in ‘The King,’ and countless biographies invaded the market. The movie spawned several fictional and/or biographical films about po- pular culture icons, such as Buddy Holly (The Buddy Holly Story, 1978) and The Beatles (Birth of The Beatles, 1979). In the 1980s and 1990s, only a handful of pop biographies were successful at the box office, i. e. Luis Valdez’ La Bamba (1987) about Richie Valens, Oliver Stone’s The Doors (1991) and Iain Softley’s Backbeat (1993). More recently, Holly- wood has produced a string of highly successful TV and cinema biogra- phies of musical heroes. The most notable films and series are The Rat Pack (1998) about the lives and times of Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, and Sammy Davis Jr., Ray (2004) about Ray Charles, Stoned (2005) about The Rolling Stones’ Brian Jones, and – again – Elvis (2005). Starting with Birth of The Beatles, The Beatles’ history has been dramatized in various forms for television as well as for the cinema. While The Beat- les’ early group history has been dealt with in Birth of The Beatles (1979), Backbeat (1993), and In His Life: The John Lennon Story (2000), John Lennon’s private life was explored in John and Yoko: A Love Story (1985) and The Hours and Times (1991).

  • Brian Epstein by Anthony Decurtis the Beatles’Visionary Manager Took the Fab Four to “The Toppermost of the Poppermost.”
    Brian Epstein By Anthony DeCurtis The Beatles’visionary manager took the Fab Four to “the toppermost of the poppermost.” AS TIME GOES BY, SUCCESSES OF THE PAST, PARTICULARLY groundbreaking ones, often come to seem inevitable. The more com­ prehensively a band reshapes the world, the more difficult it is to imag­ ine what the world looked like before it was so dramatically remade. So the question arises from our contemporary perspective: Who could not have foreseen the earth-shattering potential of the early Beatles? It was all right there, after all: their obvious musical genius; those har­ monies, original songs, and impeccable taste in covers; their raw rock & roll energy combined with irresistible pop charm. Not to mention their good looks, intelligence, youth, ambition, and a fierce work ethic. Who couldn’t have known that the Beatles were destined to conquer and transform the world? ^ The answer to that question, of course, is just about everybody, with one notable exception: Brian Epstein. As the Beatles’ manager and tireless promoter, Epstein displayed much more than an eye for talent, though that was certainly one aspect of his gift. Indeed, he was motivated by something much more rare and ineffable: an unshakeable belief in them as artists and as people. ^ Yes, the Beatles already had garnered fans before Epstein experienced his Paul-on-the-road-to-Damascus moment, while watching them per­ form during one of their frenzied lunch-hour sets at the Cavern Club in Liverpool. They had incited passion in their hometown, as well as at raucous club residencies in Hamburg, Germany.

Měl jsem štěstí, že jsem při mnoha příležitostech mohl vést rozhovory s Paulem McCart‑ neym. John Lennon zemřel dřív, než se mi s ním podařilo setkat, což po‑ važuji za svoji největší profesní smůlu. S Paulem jsme ale dobře vycházeli. Tak vznikla tato knížka. Posbíral jsem naše rozhovory z nejrůzněj‑ ších setkání a uspořádal je do jednolitého vyprávění. Doufám, že z něj vystoupí hudební příběh Paula McCartneyho podaný jeho vlastními slovy a doplněný nemnoha mými komentáři. Během dlouhé celoživotní kariéry vyprodukoval ohromující dílo, které ve všech svých polohách vždy odmění pozorného posluchače.
