This second volume covers a further fifty songs from Paul McCartney's career after The Beatles. McCartney's work is reviewed in the context of musical trends since 1970. Each song is in the format of a short essay, with regard to tonality, key signature, instrumentation, harmony, modulation and dynamics. The book also includes an examination of McCartney's bass guitar playing both during and after The Beatles; an extended introduction to compositional devices such as secondary dominants, circles of fifths and the Mixolydian mode. For those without a background in music theory, the book includes an extensive index with an explanation of terms and specific examples from songs. The book concludes with two extended essays; one of McCartney's compositional style and the other on McCartney's cultural influence since 1970.
