Washburn Partners With Paul McCartney in Wingspan Book Promotion


Washburn

Posted 2003-03-29


Washburn Guitars is pleased to announce our participation in a promotion with Paul McCartney. Washburn Guitars is providing eighteen basses to Paul McCartney as part of a spectacular prize package, which is tied to his new book, Wingspan. The prize package will be given away in the largest radio markets in the country to eighteen lucky winners. Washburn is also currently working with Brian Ray, Paul McCartney’s Guitar/Bass Player. Brian is using the AB34 in their acoustic shows in Europe.

WINGSPAN is an intimate scrapbook charting how Paul McCartney's band, Wings, became one of the biggest selling acts of the 1970's with memorable hits like "Band on the Run," "My Love," "With a Little Luck," "Live and Let Die," "Junior's Farm," "Jet," and many others. At the same time, Paul and his wife, Linda, a fellow band member, were raising a family at home and on the road. This book is a personal record of Wings' beginnings after the break up of the world's most celebrated rock group, the Beatles, through to the 1980's. Apart from a unique insight into the dynamics of a hugely popular band and an extraordinary marriage, WINGSPAN brings back memories of some of the wonderful songs and how they were written, recorded and performed.
