From Beatles break-up to John’s murder, a look at Paul’s transformation

Fresh Air

Oscar, Grammy, and Emmy-winning documentary filmmaker Morgan Neville tells us about his new film, ‘Man on The Run.’It begins when the Beatles end, with Paul McCartney trying to figure out who he is as a musician and as a person— without John Lennon and the band that defined him since he was a teenager. Neville got access to previously unseen archival footage of McCartney with his young family and forming his new band, Wings. He spoke with Fresh Air contributor/producer Ann Marie Baldonado.

 
Also, jazz critic Martin Johnson reviews an Art Blakey concert album, ‘Strasbourg 82.’
