"Endless time"😢 Wow, first mention of "macrobiotics" I've ever heard.

The problem with all the Paul is Dead comments, I don't know who's taking the piss and who's seriously believing it

At one point while filming in Northern Germany the production was based in a building reminiscent of Salvation army building known as Strawberry fields which may have been the catalyst for the song .

Probably Paul McCartneys last interview

Odd that he was still making demos even during 77 and 78.

Lennon ruined Nilsson's voice on the Pussycats LP. I remember buying the Rock n Roll LP from my local newsagent for £2.99 in 1979. I was to be honest disappointed as especially with Sweet Little Sixteen and Do You Wanna Dance were like listening to disco music.

Only 24 years old. So poised.

Lennon dabbled with communism at this time but it wasn't congruent with being a multi-millionaire rock star. Some of his views and opinions are patently naive & ignorant of the evils of communism & the malevolent intent of marxists who attempted to use him to get their message to the masses via sugar coating & masking their true goals.

I was lucky enough to pick up a pre-owned numbered copy super deluxe of the White Album for around £40 like new, it's now hard to get and are going for around £200+. Paul mentioned Chris Montez he was the geezer who sang 'Let's Dance' a big smash hit in 1962 [?].

The Beatles are over rated. The media puffed them up for MI5.

It's nice to hear one of the last interviews with Paul before John died - thanks for the upload

1966 was pretty much at the point where they the Beatles are shifting from being teenage popstars to picking up a whole new audience. They drop the old audience who went with bands that we go with bands like the monkees etc. That’s the sign of a maturing music scene.

A relaxed interview at a good time in his life. Oh, if only Alma hadn't died, and if only he hadn't walked into that gallery 2 weeks later, if only he'd stayed with May Pang and if only someone hadn't paid Chapman to shoot him ... Since wars are virtual money fountains for certain people, talking about peace is obviously very dangerous in this world.

Around 2 hours is the best bit.

I love his songs but let's be honest he's a bit of a twat.

Great interview. Ever thought of putting these interviews in podcast form? They seem ideal for that medium 👌

I saw this live as a child. One of my earliest memories ❤️

20:04

To all you PID Believers, watch the "James Paul McCartney" TV special 1973, (here on KZfaq for everyone to see) at the 20 minutes mark there's a McCartney family get together in a Liverpool pub, they're all getting pissed (drunk) calling him Paul singing along with him and showering him with kisses! Now how is it that his Dad, aunties, uncles and cousins, can not see it's not their Paul the one they have grown up with, the one they have always known, but he's in fact an imposter named Billy! Come PID Believers please explain it

❤❤❤🕉🕉🕉♥️♥️♥️ missing George

LOL that is not the real Paul McCartney. People are as blind as a bat and absolutely on brains to believe that

Throughout his life Lennon had demonstrated and shown a mentality of that of a teenager. Never matured, never managed to grow up and was eternally craving for love and attention. Both he and McCartney came together for that one brief moment in time in which they blossomed and produced. Without McCartney this may not have happened. It was McCartney who drew out the nascent art Lennon who always thought he knew the answer to everything and would seldom, if ever, listen to others. He would listen to McCartney though. ONO was incidental to the downfall of the group. It was Lennon's egoism and destructiveness that brought that about. Look at the way he destroyed the lives of his family. Had a wife and son who adored him. Lennon showed no remorse, no attempt at remediation and no love, only violence. It was Lennon who said "All you need is love" and yet when the moment came, he couldn't handle it. He remained throughout his short life with an enormous chip on his shoulder that he was unable to shrug off. His band mates grew up and matured over time. Not so Lennon. His interviews, as here for example only serve to show a man in desperate need of love and attention. Listen to around 29:00 where they both assume they knew everything and the rest of the world was wrong and unjust. They then begin to lose themselves in words. Unable to see that the world owed them nothing

ビデオ.映像はっ..??

I know exactly how he feels! I hate phones! I hate thirsty people calling. Leave me alone to be me enjoying the nothingness . . If I wanna hear from you, I will call you,

John was murdered just about a month after Reagan was elected president. The Oligarchy didn't want Lennon commenting on Reagan and the Moral Majority and the right wing agenda. So they sent the murderer to NYC.

I feel like a fly on a wall listening to this up, close & personal raw interview with nothing edited out, it's great!

He seemed more level headed and better than his early 70s interviews. He was still witty and brutally honest, but he seemed more calm and enthusiastic. It’s a shame what happened to him.

Such a massive great goldmine! AND he’s CLEARLY not recentful to George! Wow never heard that bit before of him wanting George in his band for the 1981 canadian gig! (1:20 ish)

Love and agree to what they say even if it is a blast from the past!! 👍❤🥰😎

The Mahavishnu Orchestra record produced by George Martin came out in early 1974. If this interview took place before, this interview could not have taken place in 1979.

God bless poor John..

Ringo has his father's cute happy-face :D

Some of the songs that he picked to cover for the Rock and Roll album are stinkers.

Here John's voice is deep. Sometimes it's really high like he's on helium 😂

What radio program was this from?

Does no one notice the air of menace The part where they are talking about a shooting him

12:12 on is very beautiful

Oh it’s wonderful to be here .. listening to John without the wall flower witch

💯 proof that Paul was most at fault..

Fan, but not his best interview

Pleeeease 🙏 someOne clean this precious tape up , its ruining yOur hearing like this . Quitting 4 now 😨

John was in a good mood on Those days.Would be great still have him nowadays.

What a sweet guy

The thought of Paul and Martha having little howling conversations is absolutely heartwarming

That last cover is gorgeous

I still don’t believe she didn’t know who he was.

Truly Paul ❤

loved this interview love listening to him . shame he didnt put as much thought into raising his first son Julian

Good to see this here. I originally posted the audio of this interview about ten years ago, in two parts on small scale KZfaq channel. So hopefully it gets more hits here. After the interview was transcribed (only partially and heavily edited) and published in the Red Mole newspaper the cassette tape it was on was tossed into the bin in the offices of the International Marxist Group. As it happened, a young IMG member (and decades later a friend of mine) Richard Hatcher retrieved the tape and subsequently had it enhanced by an AV technician at the University where he worked, and put onto a CD. It was this that he handed to me in 2013 and asked if I had any ideas what to do with it. I was told by Tariq Ali that the same IMG office had Jagger's hand written lyrics to Street Fighting Man on the noticeboard for a few years until someone also binned them. No-one back then had much idea of the historical or cultural, let alone financial, value of such ephemera...

My 12 year old thinks He's 27 😀 I just let it be, he'll grow up in good time and laugh at His younger self - Just like His dad did! 😄x
