James had a small mention on an article about Paul and Nancy.

"He [Paul] likes being looked after by a wife and he likes waking up with someone next to him. He has been talking excitedly about plans for seeing more and more of Nancy and that worries Stella, Mary and James. [MORE]

Sir Paul McCartney is set to play a concert with his son James.

The Beatles legend has teamed up with the 30-year-old guitarist on his debut album - which is due out later this year - and the father-son pair now plan to try out their new material live.

A source said: “The word is James wants to try out some of the songs on stage in the near future and it’s understood that Paul will be performing with him.”

However, any fans hoping for a big concert will be sorely disappointed, as James - whose mother was Paul’s late first wife Linda McCartney - wants to avoid attention.

The source added: “James won’t want a big fuss as he’s not someone who seeks the limelight, so it will inevitably be very low-key. But Paul is not a bad backing musician to have under the circumstances.”

It will not be the first time the pair have played live together.

In 2005, James - who co-wrote ‘Heaven on a Sunday’, ‘Back In The Sunshine Again’ and ‘Spinning On An Axis’ for Paul’s solo albums - accompanied his father during his recent US tour.

James also played lead guitar on his mother’s posthumously released solo album ‘Wide Prairie’.

Here's a little new about James' mom, Linda.

Ex-Beatle Paul McCartney will stage an exhibition in April of his late wife Linda's photographs, the first major show of its kind in Britain, London's James Hyman Gallery said on Tuesday.

"An exhibition presenting the range of Linda's photographic work is long overdue, so I'm obviously pleased that this show is happening," the 65-year-old singer said in a statement.

"James Hyman, my daughter Mary, and I have worked on it now for three years, and the result is a sensitive selection of works that really demonstrates Linda's prodigious output as a photographer.

"The photographs not only illustrate her incredible talent as an artist, but as someone who was very much connected to the culture of the times, and wasn't afraid to challenge herself, or her subject."

The exhibition will feature pictures from the 1960s until the late 1990s, including many rarely seen works.

It will include portraits of Jim Morrison, Janice Joplin, John Lennon and Mick Jagger as well as landscapes, interiors and images of family life.

The pictures will be for sale in limited editions and authenticated with a certificate signed by McCartney. The exhibition will run from April 24 to June 7.

I know it isn't about James, but hey... it's kind of related. Anyway. Stella gave birth to her third child, a son, Beckett Robert Lee Willis. The baby was born on Tuesday 8, in London.

So... James' has a new nephew (now it's related). Congratulations to the McCartneys.
