introduction

Paul McCartney's first solo project was created in 1966 when he was still a member of the Beatles . He composed the music for the feature film The Family Way . The soundtrack of the same name was released in 1967. After the Beatles split up, the album McCartney was released in 1970 , which he - with a little support from his wife Linda McCartney - composed, recorded, recorded and produced almost by himself. In February 1971 he released his first solo single Another Day / Oh Woman, Oh Why . This was followed by the album Ram , which was released as a joint effort by Paul and Linda McCartney in May 1971. Several singles were released from this album. The most successful was the single Uncle Albert / Admiral Halsey / Too Many People , which reached # 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 in the US and was awarded a Grammy Award . In December 1971 the album Wild Life was released . It was the debut album of Paul McCartney's newly formed group Wings . The group, whose line-up changed frequently over time and only remained stable in the core with the members Paul and Linda McCartney and Denny Laine , recorded a total of seven studio albums. The last was Back to the Egg from 1979. In addition, the live album Wings over America was released in 1976 with recordings of the USA tour from the same year. In May 1980, Paul McCartney's album McCartney II was a return to the beginning of his solo career. As in 1970, he recorded and produced the pieces by himself. In 1981 the official dissolution of the Wings was announced. In the period that followed, Paul McCartney released fifteen more studio albums by 2018. The last date in 2018 under the title Egypt Station . In addition to the studio albums, since 1990 ( Tripping the Live Fantastic ) there have been regular live albums for McCartney's tours. Paul McCartney also worked as a classical composer, starting with Paul McCartney's Liverpool Oratorio in 1991, five classical works have appeared to date. In addition, McCartney pursued some side projects such as The Fireman or Twin Freaks, with which he released several records.
