Yet in the years after the Fab Four disbanded, Paul McCartney became a legend in his own right. Now journalist and world-renowned Beatles' historian Allan Kozinn and award-winning documentarian Adrian Sinclair chronicle in technicolor McCartney's pivotal years from 1969 to 1973, as he recreated himself in the immediate aftermath of the Beatles breakup - a period when, newly married and with a growing family, he conquered depression and self-doubt, formed a new band, Wings, and recorded five epochal albums culminating in the triumphant smash, Band on the Run.The Kintyre Mist -- Rotten Apple -- Playing With Himself -- Enter Billy Martin -- One Guy Standing There Shouting "I'm Leaving" -- Another Day, Another Dilemma -- Working 9 To 5 -- Keep On Truckin' -- Back Across The Water -- Of Beatles And Barristers -- Battering Ram -- Growing wings -- War Is Over, If You Want It -- Ireland, It's The Capital Of Liverpool -- Introducing...
