I love Paul even though I’m a big John fan. There’s a seriousness, maturity and honesty that is refreshing. He was asked good questions and he actually answered them directly and said something worth listening to. It’s amazing too that they turned chance opportunities, like a sit-down at the piano or noticing a poster, and made songs like Golden Slumbers and Being For the Benefit of Mr. Kite. Geniuses who had some humility.

@@TheJoshtheboss (warning - this is a bit of a long one..) "Paul demonstrated on multiple occasions to be very business and popular opinion savvy" 100% agree and thank goodness for that, especially in regards to what was musically likely to sell! But being business savvy and having an eye to popularity doesn't equal "false humility", it's common sense. He loved what he did but he also wanted to make a living. Remember it was Paul's acuity that saved The Beatles their money when Klein mis-managed their financial affairs. And Paul wasn't always *such* a slave to 'popular opinion' that he would abandon what he believed to be morally right. During The Beatles tour of the US where performing to segragated audiences had been proposed, Paul was very vocal in his views that they would not perform if those were the circumstances. In a US press conference he said: "We don't like it if there's any segregation... you can't treat other human beings like animals... there's never any segregation in concerts in England and in fact, if there was, we wouldn't play 'em ". "Crafty PR man"? That makes him sound so conniving - I don't see that in him at all. Astute, enterprising, diligent, exacting? Yes. But also genuinely conscious of the feelings of those around him - especially as the older and wiser man he has become. Look I get it, Paul comes across as being *very* likeable, but I believe it's his diplomacy that can sometimes be *perceived* as insincere. But that's just perception and not necessarily an accurate assessment. I'm not like him, I often sacrifice diplomacy in favour of harsh 'thruths' (well, my version of the truth, anyway), I actually feel it's a perverse form of self-indulgence. I'd *rather* be more like Paul - kind and careful, it's harder and takes more self-control. I've also come across different accounts of the same stories that Paul has told, but is that deliberately massaging the truth for his benefit, or just a very human tendency to misremember things from the past? No one is perfect, and Paul will have his faults like all of us, but I think he's been given a hammering over the years. It's been excessive and IMO, unjust.

This was recorded the day *before* Lennon announced his departure. (He’d already told Allen Klein.) 19 September 1969.

It definitely sounded like Paul was down in this interview. Perhaps he knew it was coming

The Let It Be session included songs written by George with support from John Paul & Ringo It was George who be indifferent The songs included would become the classic All Things Must Pass

Sounds like there was more to this interview, will you be posting the rest?

You ask any fan of any band and they will always say the early stuff is the best but The Beatles just got better and better and better... imagine the stuff they would have come up with had things had worked out differently.

he asks Paul what do you think The Beatles are going to be doing when youre forty, and all i could think of was John and it got me a bit emotional.

John lived to be 40 and was in a good place before he was taken from this world. He had reconciled with Paul, they had had dinner and talked about getting the band back together. He was happy. God Bless Him, and R.I.P.

He and George were in a bad place

If John sang the song 🎵 he wrote it. If Paul then Paul. George etc. Ringo were the only one where John & Paul wrote for him. We Beatle fans know this. This comment is for the newbies.. 😊 Subscribed.

"I'm Happy Just to dance With You' written by lennon sung by Harrison.

9:05 - is this interview right before the meeting where John quits?!

Like, “It doesn’t really matter if it’s wrong I’m right, where I belong I’m right where I belong. …”. Similar to John’s “ Because” in that way of word play.

Wow he talks about Get Back in an interview way before it’s release in 2021.

How incredible to have a journalist critiquing the lyrics of 'Because'! Imagine if we actually had journalists today instead of corporate propagandists, and regarding music, what they might ask about Max Martin's sub-cretinous garbage he churns out for the corporations & his 120+ shyte clients

"passé in 1969" Humans are crazy.

It certainly looks like him, Sheila. Btw - I have a guest arranged for Friday night, 9pm London time if you're around. You'll really enjoy it, he has a wealth of knowledge on The Beatles, he's a native New Yorker and went to the Dakota the night John died. Very intelligent and interesting man :)

Just a quick question to the author if this video. Where did you get the thumbnail of the Beatles (A Hard Days Night era) running down Abbey Road? I painted the exact same concept in the early 1990's. I just had to click and comment when I saw that. Wild!

BIG NEWS! Hi there Beatle fans, Mark here. As of this week I will be uploading 2 videos per week until January the 10th 2022. Then I'll be uploading videos and my new podcast here to this channel, I'll also be opening the podcast on Spotify with some extras!!! Later next week I'll be uploading my first video in my new studio so you can all see what I look like and get familiar with me, I feel like as Beatlemaniacs we're all part of the same family. The main Beatle Stories channel was terminated in April due to copyright issues with YokoOnoOfficial. Only today was I told that that channel will not be coming back 🤷‍♂️. I'll be uploading every single video and interview with the lads I have over the next 2 years so I won't be able to monetize my channel. It's taken time to buy a new computer and rearrange a bedroom into a Beatles decorated studio, add that to how long I've waited for KZread and YokoOnoOfficial and you'll understand why I've been away for so long. You will absolutely love what's coming, we're going to go through every single day in Beatles history, every song, we're going to cover anything and everything to do with The Beatles 🚶‍♀️🚶‍♂️🚶‍♀️🚶‍♂️ Stay tuned! You never give me your money. You only give me your funny faces Http://cash.me/£beatlestories 👆That's me in the profile picture :) Any donations would be extremely appreciated. I will try to give you the best Beatles related content on KZread but after being very ill for 2020 and half of this year I'm having to start again. We had 75,000 subscribers so losing that channel just depressed me, it took 4 years to build that channel and I was genuinely heartbroken. I really missed coming and talking to you all about The Beatles every night so please understand - I was utterly exhausted mentally, it really hurt. #LENNON #McCartney #harrison #starr #cavern #AbbeyRoad #sgtpeppers #TheWhieAlbum #letitbe #TheBeatles The best there was. The best there is. The best there ever will be.... THE BEATLES 🚶‍♀️🚶‍♂️🚶‍♀️🚶‍♂️ I'M BACK FOR GOOD!!

So Paul´s fav tunes were: Something (written by George), Come together and Because (both by John). And now compare it to John´s lists of fav tunes.

Paul answering "we'll be alright" when the interviewer asked where each of the Beatles will be at 40 years old. :(

Well, at 40, they all were in pretty good shape. They were all doing alright. John didn't get a chance to turn 41, but he was in a good place before he was taken from this world.

He was correct

Does someone know when this interview took place ? I just checked the dates, Abbey Road was released on 26 september 1969, and John Lennon told the others he was leaving the band less than a week prior to that on 20 September 69. So at this point Paul probably knew the band was over and done with, that's quite trippy. Unrelated but I'm french and I'm unsure of the way i write dates, is it the correct phrasing ?

My favorite song on Abbey Road is Oh! Darling. I think it's so underrated.

I love singing it in the car but of course I can’t come close to those killer vocals. His poor throat, man.

Abbey Road was their biggest selling non-compilation album. Although not as strong as Revolver, as important as Sgt Pepper’s or as diverse as the White Album it’s definitely their most melodic LP and shows British pop music at its height.

I think it’s funny how the interviewer said, “Isn’t the lyric ‘turn me on’ a bit passé?” The stuff that hip people in the ‘60s cared about! In the ‘60s, pop culture changed so quickly that even things from only a couple years ago could be called passé! Several decades later, with the Beatles firmly entrenched in the bedrock of music history, little cultural fads like that don’t matter anymore.

Can you provide details of the source material?

Paul said they were playing Abbey Road together. However, many of the materials were recoded separately, I think?

When was this interview done?
