| Biography
In tandem with John Lennon, musician Paul McCartney is responsible for composing most of the songs in the nine-year history of the Beatles. While still a member of the group, McCartney wrote the score for the 1966 film The Family Way; it would be his last solo gig until the Beatles' breakup in 1970. So prolific and popular was McCartney in his post-Beatle years that it became a standard joke amongst post-postwar kids to query "You mean that Paul McCartney was in a band before Wings?" Also grist for the humor mill was McCartney's incredible wealth; his legal ownership of virtually every song ever written (including such state anthems as "On Wisconsin"); and the strict vegetarian edicts of his wife and business partner Linda Eastman McCartney. Paul McCartney has also kept active in the film world, penning the theme for the 1973 James Bond flick Live And Let Die, and producing, scoring and acting in the 1984 vanity project Give My Regards to Broad Street, in which viewers were offered the unlikely premise that McCartney would face bankruptcy if he didn't locate a lost record album.

- Sang backup on Donovan's "Mellow Yellow"; also played bass on some of his album tracks.

- He appeared as himself in Tracey Ullman's "They Don't Know" music video.

- His song, "When I'm 64" was written for his father Jim on his 64th birthday.
- He wrote his first song, "I've Lost My Little Girl", when he was 14.
- His father, Jim, was a musician, and had a band called Jim Mac's Jazz Band. Paul has fond memories of lying on his bedroom floor and listening to his father play piano.
- Along with writing "Hey Jude" for Julian Lennon the summer his parents broke up, Paul also jokingly proposed to Cynthia Lennon, in the wake of his own breakup with Jane Asher. Cynthia appreciated the laugh they both shared - and the bouquet Paul had brought.
- Was actually the only Beatle to graduate from Britain's equivalent of high- school; he majored in Art.
- Usually considered the most "conventional" of the Beatles, but Paul has had his share of far-out ideas, including the germ of the TV-movie Magical Mystery Tour (1967) (TV), and a "self-portrait" published as a Sixties magazine cover, which proved to be a psychedelic painting a la Picasso.
- Set up John Lennon's "home studio" for him at Kenwood, with its chain of tape decks; Lennon used this setup to make song demos for the Beatles, and later the infamous 'Two Virgins' album with Yoko Ono (which Paul gave its cover quote).
- A lyric sheet to his song "Yesterday" is featured on the front cover of the Marillion album "Script for a Jester's Tear" (released 1983).
- In 2002, he changed the writing credits to many of the songs he made with the Beatles to "McCartney & Lennon" to a large public uproar. It is a common misconception, however that this was the first time he had done this. He made the same credit change on his 1976 live album "Wings Over America" to little or no public scrutiny and to no public comment from Lennon (who of course was still alive at the time).
- Performed "Let It Be" at Live Aid in 1985. During this performance, Bob Geldof, David Bowie, Alison Moyet and Pete Townshend (of The Who) all came on stage towards the end to sing backup vocals.

- Met his first wife Linda in a London nightclub called the Bag O'Nails.
- 28 Oct 2003: Daughter named Beatrice born to Paul and wife Heather.
- In 1998, his song "Blackbird" was covered by Marillion for their live album "Unplugged at the Walls".
- Is half of the techno duo The Fireman.
- In 1971, he produced (but did not perform on) "Thrillington", an instrumental version of the album "Ram" he recorded with his wife Linda. The songs were presented in orchestral versions, and Paul's work as producer and director was pseudonymously credited to "Percy 'Thrills' Thrillington". The album was not well received by the critics, but is now a much sought-after collectable.
- First used the pseudonym "Apollo C. Vermouth" when producing an album for the novelty musical group, The Bonzo Dog Doo-Dah Band (later known as The Bonzos). He used the pseudonym because record contract obligations prevented him from using his real name on a rival record label. The band repaid McCartney's efforts with a composition entitled "Mister Apollo", a song about an impossibly perfect body builder.

- Several of his solo albums (and those with Wings) featured cover photos by first wife Linda, including "Ram", whose front cover had a picture of him handling a ram at his Scottish farm. (John Lennon parodied this picture in his "Imagine" album, grasping the ears of a pig.) The back cover included a photo of bugs mating; while it was unintentional, several fans thought this illustrated an attitude of "Fuck the Beatles".
