Paul loves John? What interview have you been listening to? Even if I believed the official Beatles narrative, I'd be hard pressed to come up with evidence of love from this interview. Yes, he pretends to really want to say something positive about John, what a great guy he was etc, but then fleshes it out with nothing but counterexamples that leave John Lennon in a dubious light at best. Almost as in the parts of Billy Shear''s memoirs that I've read. - That said, I certainly don't imagine John Lennon was a working class hero, as some tend to see him. The only Beatle that comes across as an honest working class guy is Pete Best.

Yes, Alec Baldwin not only gets out of the way of Paul’s reminiscences but he is able to make Paul comfortable. Maybe because it’s audio and not video. The many filmed interviews there are of Paul sound guarded and somewhat withholding. But not this one. I think there was love between the two of them. As if they were brothers. But since John’s departure from the group they both experienced a lot of drama, legalities, competition, resentments, and enjoyment of the variety of life beyond the Beatles that put distance between them. So it’s natural Paul isn’t going to be sounding wistful and enthralled about John. Instead he gives a measured account of how inseparable they were (“2-sides of the same coin”) and how much they enjoyed life and music together during their formative & productive years. It was interesting to hear from Paul how John’s broken family life was expressed in his later work which grew increasingly dark and anguished.

If George and John were still alive it would have been a barrel of laughs at John's 80th. birthday bash. I could imagine the four of them getting their guitars and drums out and instead of playing the hits playing the 'Ying Tong song' or old war time standards. Their collective sense of humor was a huge part of their magical chemistry.

We love to get to know you. If I could ask Paul a question, I'd ask this. Paul , could you share with us a time when you or both of you had just written a song that really made you feel the shiver internally that this was going to be a lasting sound of success? A writers high if you will ? An internal excitement. I'd love to hear this, as it has never been asked, and I'd love to know. As a song writer I wonder about the magic of creation and how Paul feels about this internal excitement.

Here's my 70 year old perspective. I was thirteen when I got my first guitar and first Beatles album, Christmas, 1963. I grew up with them, saw them in Toronto and became a professional musician. Being a life-long fan, I believe that John loved Paul and vice versa. They had a deep and profound impact on each other. When Yoko arrived, I think she was jealous of that bond, which caused problems for them and the group. John followed his new path with Yoko and Paul had much success with Wings and his career. The music they all created has passed into history as new generations discover their songs. I am glad they never re-grouped. The swan songs of " Abbey Road " were enough.
@josephbell58063 жыл бұрын
James, I couldn't agree more. The Beatles were definitely lightning in a bottle, there was a certain magic there. I don't believe it would have been sustained at the same level if they'd stayed together. I think they drifted at just the right time. John and Paul had a special relationship. It had it's bumpy stretches - what relationship of that depth doesn't? - but in the end, as Paul has hinted many, many times, they loved one another.
@jmgalbo13 жыл бұрын
It blows my mind to remember that the Beatles from: - Please, Please Me (1963) to Let It Be (1970) - In just those eight years they accomplished writing and recording 229 original songs - many of which are collectively known and loved by hundreds of millions of people around the globe. A rare and exceptional confluence of talent that became a force in musical and cultural developments that are still in play today. I feel privileged to have lived in this time. I would feel the same way if I were a contemporary of Mozart. Beatles songs will still be appreciated hundreds of years down the road.

It's a ridiculous assessment of Yoko Ono. By the time she and John became an item, the Beatles had pretty much exhausted their creative vision and energies as a band. It's clear that they were soulmates. There's no such thing as a magical circle in which things always remain the same. Life is a progression, people change and evolve, not necessarily for the better. If they don't they're condemned to repeat themselves and stagnate. Lennon and McCartney partied their ways at just the right moment and went on to compose their own music, each w a few hits of their own (Mull of Kintyre, Imagine, A Jealous Guy). But what they accomplished as a band, was solid gold, enough to last them a lifetime.

My best friend Cliff comes from Liverpool and we once hitched from Singapore to Bangkok. We are still in touch 54 years later though I now live in Prague. The wit that Paul mentioned is I believe a Liverpool thing. Cliff is just the same as John Lennon with an acid tongue which cuts through and deflates any pretension - their speciality. :) I often wondered if George wrote all the intros to Beatle songs because if so he was the most memorable intro riff writer of all time as each one is so recognizable when you hear it. So Paul has confirmed at least one. He's also confirming that the sum of the Beatles was greater than the parts.

There was only about 15 fans that would wait for Paul (driving) and Linda to pull up in their white convertible to my small neighborhood street everyday. It was Feb 1975 and Mardi Gras season and they were in town with all their kids. Got his autograph and several pictures. Had a few minutes to talk to him too. Man, he was so down to earth - but I was floating!

@joseelarose33273 жыл бұрын
But I think Alec Baldwin tries. It is Paul who always deflects his replies in the same direction. The first question Baldwin asks him is about how John seemed to be having such a wonderful time in the early days, obviously before 1967, but Paul veers it to : "Ah well.. you know.. we ALL did..". Paul may be on his guard. Does not want to get into nasty bits. Does not want to discuss the difference in John before and after Yoko. I start thinking: Baldwin should have placed in front of Paul's eyes some of the numerous spontaneous real takes where John & him have a blast together. When one looks at the footage, it is no wonder The Beatles were so adored. John & Paul, the composers, were magic! But in recent interviews, Paul flattens everything out to almost boring. Anyways, to someone who never saw real Beatles footage, the happiness, the pride in it all, or read about the passion in the band's break-up, this interview might be touching.

How 'awful' of Paul to preserve the privacy of the people he loved. How 'awful' of him not to say things about people who are no longer here to defend themselves. I think Paul's sanitized answers come from a really moral place.

This interview gives such an intimate glimpse into the personalities of Paul, John and George. It's like being able to be there for a little moment. Mostly you feel how John, Paul and George really grew up together being kids (Ringo only came in when they took off being The Beatles, so that's another story). Like how they could be so honest with each other,no problem. Paul and John were Ying and Yang. John was the leader they looked up to (but hopelessly impractical,😂) George was the "handy" one and Paul the "pusher". Priceless

Now that was an interesting interview. You could tell Sir Paul McCartney was even very engaged in the interview. I really like those type of interviews. Sir Paul McCartney is more relaxed and cares about what he was answering.

Great Beatles humor from the top, as Paul is speaking not only as if it is his show but he does an American accent "introducing" Baldwin BUT he uses the British term "presenter" which I'm sure tickled Alec even more. Thanks for posting; this is a very candid exchange. I'm in-between Paul & Alec age-wise & remember the Beatles' breakup, the purported circumstances & attitudes of those in the different "camps"; Paul addresses the troubles but also seems to have come to terms with it all & conveys this acknowledgement with more than justifications but a real sense of a transcendent love that he'd rather keep in his heart. He even here is acknowledging how John was the "leader" AND how he fondly looked up to him from their youth given his being the 'junior' by a year & a half. It's interesting his Wiki page denotes "Sgt. Pepper's" as when Paul is the "'de facto' leader" & how the album is cited here. The times they were calamitous, to paraphrase Dylan, & how all their creative energy came together & almost had to come apart eventually would provide a treatise in cultural anthropology, not just psychology. The Beatles provide a case study in group dynamics, of how their collective talent was greater than the parts. Is there a link to more?

I always felt John was the leader of the Beatles before Sgt. Pepper and then afterward, Sir Paul. If it wasn't for Sir Paul toward the end, the Beatles would not have made Let it Be and Abbey Road. Sir Paul held ;them together at the end.
@shawnmcvey77893 жыл бұрын
I've always kind of seen it as Paul really coming into his own as a full on arranger and songwriter, John and George wrote some really unique stuff but if you look at where their careers after the Beatles Paul was the most "progressive" and took the most risks musically. They didn't always work out, but he clearly wanted to try more ideas. John was definitely the strongest personality when they started but it kind of seems like he got tired of that. My guess is a personality like that would resent being put in a box, and it kind of makes sense he would embrace the minimalist art Yoko was doing at the time and work that into his music. That was in direct contrast to McCartney, who even on the "homespun" Ram album has lush orchestral parts on Back Seat of My Car and Uncle Albert/Admiral Halsey. It fueled a magnificent dichotomy that pushed the last few albums, but ultimately I can understand why it didn't last much longer, especially when the money stuff came in to play.

John was always the leader. It all revolved around him regardless of Paul's later "producing" John just let him run with it more as John could be lazy. As a matter of fact, John ended the band when it became boring work for him. He then needed to mingle with different musicans to avoid boredom, the reason he never formed another band as Paul did.

How great is it...to have heard these tracks, and stories through the years, growing up, and being fascinated with the quality and mystique of The Beatles...and now...to hear Paul talk about how those things came about. Makes you feel closer to them than ever before. It is just great to be able to own their whole catalog and see through their music, how they evolved musically. And I mean Ringo as well. All 4 had a path, worth walking in, and grasping the genius of their music. I started with Paul, then John, then George, and then Ringo. Every song...every note. It is an amazing catalog that no other musicians can compare to. Only Pink Floyd, in my opinion, came close to what The Beatles accomplished. And even then...Floyd is a far second. It is fantastic, being able to hear Paul tell these stories.
