About
James McCartney, the third child of Linda and Paul McCartney, was born on this day. From Wikipedia:
James Louis McCartney was born in Avenue Clinic at London on 12 September 1977. He is the only son of songwriter and former Beatle Paul McCartney and his first wife Linda McCartney. He was named after both his paternal grandfather Jim McCartney and his father, whose full name is James Paul McCartney, as well as Linda’s late mother, Louise Sara (Lindner) Eastman.
After we had three girls and I found out that Linda was expecting again, I got this strange feeling where I really hoped she’d have a boy.
It was strange because I’ve never thought of myself as the type of bloke who values sons more than daughters or anything like that. I didn’t want to say anything to Lin about it, but I found this little blue bootie – I think it must have belonged to one of my cousins in Liverpool. Don’t laugh, but I carried it around with me for seven months as a kind of good omen… and we had James.

The Beatles Diary Volume 2: After The Break-Up 1970-2001
"An updated edition of the best-seller. The story of what happened to the band members, their families and friends after the 1970 break-up is brought right up to date. A fascinating and meticulous piece of Beatles scholarship."
We owe a lot to Keith Badman for the creation of those pages, but you really have to buy this book to get all the details - a day to day chronology of what happened to the four Beatles after the break-up and how their stories intertwined together!
The Beatles - The Dream is Over: Off The Record 2
This edition of the book compiles more outrageous opinions and unrehearsed interviews from the former Beatles and the people who surrounded them. Keith Badman unearths a treasury of Beatles sound bites and points-of-view, taken from the post break up years. Includes insights from Yoko Ono, Linda McCartney, Barbara Bach and many more.
