They composed over two hundred songs and recorded thirteen albums in a ten-year period. They were incredibly famous. They separated in 1970. Paul McCartney (as well as the others) continued as a solo artist, and was very popular. He formed a new band, the Wings, and they had a lot of success. They played together until 1980. After that, McCartney decided to sing solo. He performed in hundreds of concerts, and he made twenty-five rock 'n' roll and pop music albums between 1970 and today, as well as some classical music records. He composed his latest record in 2018. He is now seventy-eight (he was born in 1942), and he is still composing and singing. He was on tour when the Covid-19 pandemic forced him to cancel his concerts.
