He FELT Her Standing There

This book is a wonderful collection of Memories of many Magical Moments in the presence of Paul McCartney. The pictures span two and a half decades of devoted work. The author and Mr. McCartney connect in several of these pics,and he hams it up for her. Who but someone so tuned in to him, could capture these moments??. Linda McCartney appreciated Jorie Gracen and her work...what else needs to be said.? I highly recommend this book and hope that Ms. Gracen will put out another collection following his recent world tours.Anyone who appreciates Paul will thouroughly enjoy this book!!!!!!!!!

First Class McCartney

This book is probably one of the finest photographic accounts of Paul McCartney. The other ex-Beatles (that are still with us) should be so lucky! Ms. Gracen has done a wonderful service to all of us McCartney fans, by sharing her talents and fortitude to get the right photo, sometimes under very extreme circumstances. The selection of her photos were made to be a book. The accounts of the various fans and venues was very entertaining. Also, the layout and design of the book is very professional, no shortcuts here! Anyone who has seen the Beatles in concert, Paul and his various bands, I really recommend Jorie's book. It takes you back and makes you smile and remember all of the wonderful music this legend has given tp us over the years! Well done, Jorie!!

Excellent photography, wonderful for McCartney enthusiasts!

This book is a McCartney fan's dream - great concert photos, interspersed with recollections from various sources - high quality, entertaining, and a must-have for any collection. If I had only one wish about the book, it would be more non-concert pictures - although there are many supplied in the book, and they are fantastic. The book, however, does say it is in support of his forthcoming tour, so this is understandable. My only other wish is to acquire the same jacket Paul's wearing on page 46 - been nuts about that jacket for ages! All in all, highest recommendations, and kudos to Ms. Gracen for getting it right - so many others over the past twenty years have attempted similar things, and have fallen far short of this effort. All the best!

Spend an afternoon with Paul!

This book is a class act! From the very first page, readers are lovingly drawn into the life and times of Paul McCartney, through Jorie Gracen's incredible photographs that capture the essense of a man and his music. The concert photos simply vibrate with life and give the reader a visual front seat perspective of Paul ripping up the stage or quietly enthralling his audience with a solo years hit, or a classic Beatles song. In addition, the off-stage photos of Paul portray the human side of a man who is husband, father, friend, businessman and fellow musician, simply living his life and loving it. The sensitive candid photos cover Paul's many moods and multi-faceted personality, from the irrepressible to the contemplative. The intriguing and colorful personal stories from enthusiastic fans who have had a close encounter with Paul, add humor, warmth and historical reference points that nicely compliment the stunning array of photographs. Jorie Grayson, a dedicated highly respected professional, with extensive music celebrity photo credits, is seen on the Intro page getting an affectionate hug from one of her favorite subjects -- Paul himself! Over the years Paul invited and readily posed for Jorie on numerous occasions, including the unforgettable picture on the book's back cover, of Paul on the steps of Abbey Road Studios! This book is a fun romp back through time that allows Paul's fans to see both the musical legend and the man, through the author's unique perspective.

Great Concert Photos!!!

This is an absolutely delightful book for anyone who loves the Beatles, Paul McCartney or great photography. The photos are full of energy and showcase Paul's powerful stage presence. The text written by fans who attended the concerts and by the author are fun and catch the spirit of the shows.This is a must have book!
