Episode 242: Iconic Song Series: 'Maybe I'm Amazed' (With Allan Kozinn)

2Legs: A Paul McCartney Podcast

We are very proud to announce the start of a recurring monthly series (which will be a regular episode) titled Iconic Song Series. We will pick one Classic McCartney solo track and once a month we will be joined by Allan Kozinn and (eventually) Adrian Sinclair. Co-Authors of the celebrated The McCartney Legacy. By now all followers of our show and McCartney fans in general know that Volume 2 of their book has been announced and scheduled for a 10 December release with pre-orders available now on Amazon.

We were beyond happy that Allan and Adrian were willing to join us for a recurring show on 2Legs. And this topic lends itself well. For the first installment we chose 1970's 'Maybe I'm Amazed' from Paul's first solo album McCartney.

We discuss historical significance, where Paul was at the time (personally and professionally), lyrical meaning, track by track (analysis). (As in number of tracks used to make the record.). It's well known that Paul recorded much of McCartney at home over on Cavendish Avenue. But for what is essentially one of if not his best known solo song Paul recorded this at E.M.I.

These and all the other tiny details we all love to learn about are included in this episode!

We thank Allan and Adrian for joining us for this series and we look forward to doing more!

All The Best!
