The 1946 hit “Linda” was written by Jack Lawrence in 1942 for Linda Eastman who was the infant daughter of his attorney.

In 1969, Linda Louise Eastman became Linda McCartney when she married Paul of the Beatles. Paul wrote “Maybe I’m Amazed” for her, which was his first hit after the Beatles break up.

Linda died in 1998 from breast cancer. In 2000, 10 contemporary composers including Paul created the album “A Garland for Linda” for her.
