From Hog Hill Mill Blog on Instagram: “Happy Birthday to The Lovely @lindamccartney. Linda Louise Eastman was born in Scarsdale, New York on September 24, 1941. There are very…” – There are very few photos of Linda at Hog Hill Mill as she was usually the one behind the camera! I think that makes this 1992 photo taken by Gillian Allard of her and @paulmccartney that much more special.

Eight Arms to Hold You: The Solo Beatles Compendium

We owe a lot to Chip Madinger and Mark Easter for the creation of those session pages, but you really have to buy this book to get all the details!

Eight Arms To Hold You: The Solo Beatles Compendium is the ultimate look at the careers of John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison and Ringo Starr beyond the Beatles. Every aspect of their professional careers as solo artists is explored, from recording sessions, record releases and tours, to television, film and music videos, including everything in between. From their early film soundtrack work to the officially released retrospectives, all solo efforts by the four men are exhaustively examined.

As the paperback version is out of print, you can buy a PDF version on the authors' website
