'''Sir Paul McCartney''' (born 1942) was bassist for the [[Beatles]] and shared songwriting credit with [[John Lennon]] for most of their original songs. McCartney favored lighter, more pop-oriented songs than Lennon, and this became much more apparent after April 1970 when the Beatles broke up and both began to record solo. McCartney soon formed a new band, [[Wings]], and recorded many staples of AM radio.
