He is humble and nice as a friend of mine saw him a train to Liverpool. He was a very poor guy , used to live in a consul house very basic and also his father taught him well saying all the people have value instead of money, race etc…… google it
I must tell you, i don't know how you come up and capture these amazing documentaries, but you are doing a great job talking about something that i didn't know i had an interest in. LOL. Just from watching the Paul and George Day in the life clips, it shows just how completely different the Beatles were from each other. It does seem that Paul and Ringo in general were the best adjusted to the fame of the Beatles. They didn't really change their personalities or beliefs much.
It interesting that in an interview Paul said fame has its own set of problems. It must be really hard work when people want a bit of you or want money all the time. I think people of the Beatles magnitude needed full time bodyguards. If Lennon had had one it may have saved him.
I like the 87 CD the best. These I have in order of SQ. 87 CD, 67 LP, Blue Box LP, USB (but only after you tone it down), Nautilus, UHQR, Australian Audiophile (which I thought had too much bass). To be fair the Nautilus and Australian Audiophile are Hi-Rez needle drops.
@@filmretrospective5334 thank you! Appreciate all you do for us beatlemaniacs, probably the only consistently quality videos about the Beatles out there
fans don't hang about outside these days i go past it all the time no one ever there i see him walking up to his house i think hes got a button that opens the gate when he gets near cause it was opening when he was near it i see him but i was to scared to stop and say hello i didn't want to freak him out cause the way john died he must be wary of strangers
I like Paul quite a bit however, he seems like a person that is more concerned with being PERCEIVED as a nice, humble respectful guy instead of actually BEING a nice, humble respectful guy.
Yeah I’ve felt that way too. It’s hard to cite cuz I’ve seen so many interviews, but to me it seems like he needs praise that whole “holy shit you’re Paul McCartney” so he can be like “ah yes it’s no big deal, I’m so humble”, but when he doesn’t get that sort of praise he’s a bit miffed
Being nice and humble with that much fame and talent is a matter of how you behave toward others. Paul was always respectful. Maybe it doesn’t look internalized but we all have different ways of showing our internal feelings. Paul gets a bad rap too often.
Love all the individual Beatles stuff, but Ringo needs some love. He's the most interesting to me but happens to also be the forgotten one or the one put off to last.
fascinating take on paul. i think paul believed he was an island unto himself. that doesn't make him overly arrogant just headstrong though i do think he thinks well of himself. watched the george edition and the contrast is a universe apart.
I loved the Paul McCartney bio book Many Years From Now when I first read it 15 or so years ago. I just recently re-read it with fresh eyes and now get the sinking feeling that Paul is going out of his way to portray himself as the artsy one. Pages and pages are dedicated to putting this point across. I’m not sure I agree or disagree but it’s just interesting that I felt this. I think Paul has always had a deep insecurity that the public views him as a lightweight popstar. Especially when this characterization was fueled by John Lennon. The book is touted as an “Official” biography. But I’m suspecting Paul had a deep hand in the direction of this book. Anyways, that being said, I love Paul McCartney, and the Beatles, nevertheless.
is it possible to sound a bit happier and easy going as you narrate this? I enjoy your channel but your tone in all your videos sounds like you're describing a murder plot
Interesting from a mindset and behaviour point of view. Macca's caution about change is curious considering his controlling nature at the end of the Beatles? Because he was trying, in some ways, to take them back to what they were before in the early days. But, the change aspect is contradictory due to the fact Paul engaged into Avant-garde BEFORE John. People usually, see John as the one who did all of that first but in truth it was PAUL. So, when it comes to being musically creative Paul embraces change? Maybe it's due to his Mother passing away when young? For him a form of control of change. For John, his Mother passing and his Father being distant, was shown through Father and Mother figures like Brian and Yoko? Fascinating. David
Paul is the conservative one, John is the radical one. Both in music and in life. Why do you think Paul was the last one to try LSD?? Why do you think he never released an experiential Avante-garde track like John and George did? Paul was more cautious and conservative as he himself stated. That is not news, only Paul tried to revise history when he noticed John became a cultural icon doing things his own rebellious way. But the Beatles needed Paul to be the conservative one or otherwise they’d be off balance, just like they needed the edge of John Lennon to push boundaries
Paul played bass because Stuart Sutcliffe left the band. Paul's an excellent guitar player. He recorded a ton of great guitar parts throughout his career. He is also great at bass guitar & piano, and an adequate drummer....and he can play a mean mellotron.
Ignorant take. Paul was easily the most versatile, all-around musician in the band. He could play pretty much every mainstream rock instrument competently, and he arguably played bass at a higher technical level than the other three Beatles played their respective main instruments. His melodic approach to the bass was unarguably a major influence on many players who came after him.
