Paul McCartney may be regarded a multi-talent, with his achievements as a songwriter, musician, recording artist and concert performer being unique, incomparable and legendary. But is he also a talented “multi-artist”, performing well in more than just a few other fields outside music and sound? You may decide for yourself if our main character is a talented “polymath” or “Renaissance-man” after reading our latest Maccazine. We have summarised Paul's many “extracurricular”...
2023 turned out to become a rather Beatles filled year. There was Paul’s photo book and exhibition ‘1964: Eyes of the Storm’ which captures Beatlemania in 1963/64 and the real big news came when Paul announced the release of what he called the final Beatles single, ‘Now and Then’. But there was much more, such as: Paul went on tour again, a remarkable collaboration with The Rolling Stones and there were some anniversaries to celebrate. You can read all about it in our annual overview...
In CONCERT TOURS 1972-2022, we deliberately skipped quite some memorable Paul McCartney performances through his amazing solo career, because they are not regarded to be part of a pre-scheduled concert tour. This time, we have collected most if not ALL of these “special gigs” by Paul and his then current band or solo, performing and playing LIVE in front of an audience, covering the period from 1973 till 2023. It may be a full or adapted concert, a short collaboration at a benefit, at a...

Many books and magazines -even more than a few fab MACCAZINES- have been written about specific parts of Paul’s performing career. A comprehensive compendium containing all his concert tours, including all tour dates with matching period illustrations plus a short narrative is missing. And there is no publication of an official ‘Paul is Live’ discography. That is: till now! Yes, you may find all included information available online and scattered over many books and magazines. However,...
Contemplating Christmastime an unexplored topic for our fanzine, there appear to be many interesting post-Beatles’ McCartney music, facts, memorabilia, paraphernalia, and special appearances relating to the Holidays season, all well worth mentioning and writing about. Ho-ho-ho... high time to compile a fat MACCAZINE edition, dedicated to this jolliest of seasons. We allowed ourselves to take some side paths, we’ll show you an extensive Xmas discography and we have a separate...
“What I have to say is all in the music. If I want to say anything I write a song” (from: Life Magazine, 1969) “More often than I can count, I’ve been asked if I would write an autobiography, but the time has never been right. The one thing I’ve always managed to do, whether at home or on the road, is to write new songs,” McCartney said in a statement. “I know that some people, when they get to a certain age, like to go to a diary to recall day-to-day events from the past, but I...

This is the third part of our exclusive 1971 – 1973 Wings Timeline! (This Maccazine is part of your membership 2021.) We pick up the story from our last Maccazine. The previous Timeline ended with the completion of the Wings over Europe tour in late August 1972.
