Paul McCartney Hellow everyone. Thank you all very much for coming today. My name is Manuel. Today I´d like to speak you about a member of one of the bands more influential in the history. The Beatles, and I want talk about the Beatle that most caught my attention. He is tall, has green eyes, long hair, and people says that he was the most beautiful beatle. James Paul McCartney, more recognized like Paul McCartney. He, along with Jhon Lennon, directed The Beatles. Before everything started, Paul lived like any other middle class family boy, like his future bandmate. He was born on 18 of July, nineteen forty two in Liverpool, England. His mom was nurse and his dad sold cotton, it was also a pianist of a jazz band. Tragically, his mom died of a disease when he had only 14 years old. Paul found a cure to overcome that in music. He practiqued with instruments like piano, trumpet and guitar. In nineteen fifty seven, Paul met Jhon in a festival with his group “The Quarrimen”. Soon McCartney was invited to the group. There was regular encounters on the cavern club of Liverpool. Nearly five hundred persons come to the presentation on a place for two hundred persons. Paul cover the position of bass, after Stuart Sutcliffe left the group. Pete Best (the drummer) was reemplazes for Ringo Starr. So, they are The Beatles. Nearly ten years later, in nineteen seventy, already married with Linda McCartney, Paul do public the separation of The Beatles. One year after, he had the initiative to create a band. He remembered Denny Line and Denny Seiwell. They two, with Paul and his wife, give life to “Wings” only one year after separation of Beatles. In nineteen eighty, a world tour was planned, which was canceled since McCartney was arrested for marijuana possession at the Tokyo airport. He spent 9 days in jail and the tour was canceled, like other ideas in the future. The following year, Denny Laine announces the dissolution of the group. That was not the end of the artistic carrer of McCartney. Actually he is working like solist and give concerts around the world. He have actually seventy six years old, fans says that he keep the same spirit that when he have thirty years old. Curiosities and Achievements He was arrested for burning a condom. Pete Best, the band's first drummer, said that he and McCartney would have tried to use the condom as a lamp. He is the most successful composer according to the guinness records "Yesterday", is the most versioned song in history, with over 3000 performances by artists such as Elvis Presley and Frank Sinatra. In one nineteen ninety he managed to sell 20,000 tickets for his concert in Sydney, Australia, only in 8 minutes A december 12, the band Nirvana returned to the stage, but with a small detail: The replacement of the late Kurt Cobain was Paul McCartney. They played a song of their own called "cut me some slack", and they received the grammy award for best rock song Extra fact In nineteen sixty two, Paul suffers along with his wife a tragic car accident, and both leave with minor injuries. People started to create a legend that consisted of Paul having really died and being replaced by a contest winner to replace him called William Campbell. Paul says that if he had died, he would have been the first to know Why I admire I prefer McCartney and I admire him more than any other beatle because the songs he contributed to the group are what I like the most: "Let it be, Michelle, Yesterday", and I think it seemed one of the most humble beatles, and also a genius being an instrumentalist and composer. Is carismatic, and he always standed out like person a figure, in his álbumes, like a solist and in group.
