Paul McCartney at the Ed Sullivan theatre 1992~ (the best bits) 

As a lifelong fan and guitarist (thanks to the very early inspiration from Paul) I think this is the best band he's had in his post-Beatle career. And this performance was off the charts. Paul was in great voice on this one, and obviously thankful to be playing in the same theatre where it all started. Robbie (formerly from The Pretenders) and Hamish Stuart (Average White Band), are premiere seasoned musicians that bring so much to this band. Blair Cunningham, who has played drums with a plethora of great artists including Lionel Richie, Tina Turner and Roxy Music to name a few, is the balls of this band. And not to forget Wix Wickens on keys who adds all the layers that dress up these tunes so beautifully. And of course, Linda. She was the love of his life and I'm still saddened by her passing. Some are critical of her being in the band, but honestly it would not be the same (and is not) without her. My life would have never been the same either without Sir Paul McCartney and his brilliant artistry. It was a joy to watch this superb performance from one of the greatest songwriters from the 20th Century - and beyond.

ABSOLUTELY.! I am 76 years old now and I have been in Love with him & his Incredible Music since I was 15 years old!!! I am so grateful that he & the Beatles were part of my Generation!!! I am truly Blessed !!! Thank you so much Jesus Bless you Paul & all of your Love ones...Love Roseann Brandi

I love Paul so much. I’m so lucky to have seen him 4 times, twice with The Beatles, one with Linda and Wings & one more time with this band . He’s so creative and talented. We are all blessed to have him part of our lives! 😊🎶👌

i was twelve when I heard, "I Want to Hold Your Hand". I laughed, I thought it was funny! The next year I turned thirteen and I was in love with Paul from then on. I never heard music like the Beatles came up with before. They always surprised us, very innovative, arrangements with instruments that we never heard before! The Beatles creativity was never ending. When I heard they were breaking up, the tears flowed! This just can't be, the Beatles are forever! Thank God that Paul and Ringo are still here and making Music!

Paul McCartney, the ultimate musician! RIP Linda. We miss you!

Only just found this in 2022, Paul's 80th year. I'm so grateful that people find these videos and share them on RU-vid. We don't anywhere near enough Paul McCartney and Beatles stuff on British TV.

Money Can't Buy Me Love!!??.....loved it !! Country style...not afraid to change the format!!He obviously is a natural born innovator!

Best singer songwriter musician total entertainer EVER! Plain and Simple

Paul has been my favorite entertainer for over 50 years, and he's still rocking!! Will always love you Paul

His special magic is...... HE MAKES YOU FEEL GOOD. we can compare performers and say who is better,best etc. But Paul has that special appeal to multiple generations that can't be denied

Loved Paul since about 1964. Haven’t stopped since.

We here in America all love the Beatles and especially Paul for keeping the legend alive, and well.

Fabulous Paul always so good. He was made for performance and I've not heard a better singer. We were blessed when Paul was sent here from heaven to do the work he has been doing.

Songwriter, singer, musician extrordinaire!!

Paul McCartney and The Beatles... wrote the soundtrack of our lives! Thank you John, Paul, George and Ringo. You guys saved my life more than once! ✌🏼&❤️ to the 🌎🌍🌏

He's a genius and a gentleman. They don't come any better.

Paul is the best rock singer and musician of all times.

When ever bassist say you can't be real bass player whilst using a plectrum. SIR Paul McCartney's name should instantly be thrown in their face. His talent is unmistakable. Yet I must point out the lead guitarist with the cream Fender Stratocaster is incredible.

Paul just knows how to bring it to the stage wherever he is playing around the globe

Yes! Paul McCartney is the greatest musician of all time!! :D And a very nice and kindly person too!!

Live and let die was by Wings and I believe it's one of Paul McCartney best songs and his wife Linda was in the band RIP Linda a nice lady and a warm American ❤

This is one of the coolest videos Paul made at this gig concert ., { WINGS? } and it’s good to see how happy he was when his wife Linda was alive playing in the band as well with her husband Paul., Paul did a superb gig there, I just loved it all. Thanks Paul!✌🏼

It was fascinating to hear Paul McCartney do a different rendition of one of their old numbers, Can't Buy Me Love, in the style of an old Irish folk tune, with the picking style done by one of his other lead guitar players in this performance, and the accordion backing here, coming out of a segue from Michelle. It really shows his tremendous diversity to rearrange his own numbers and his mastery to be flexible. This is also shown quite a bit in the new Beatles documentary, Get Back. As McCartney shows his tremendous ability, with instantaneous songwriting abilities. There's a scene in one of the second or third parts of the documentary with Billy Preston on keyboards and their rehearsing one of John's future numbers for the Abbey Road album already, I Want You. McCartney is sitting in the middle of the studio with an electric base he's playing lap slide style. Everyone should see this rehearsal session. The others are all joining in and it's truly an experiment in jazz fusion style, with a lot of improvising which shows their ability to be great improvisational Jazz musicians as much as pop rock, classical, and so many other diversities of styles.

Awsome paul macartney the best singer song writer of all times always ever since the beatles came to America 1964

This is just amazing. He can do it all, he has done it all! So many people just do not know how utterly immersed he is in music, how much he loves to play He is a consummate musician, second to none. What a career.

Never thought I’d hear a countryfied version of Can’t Buy Me Love from Paul. Terrific.

He has such energy man now I see how the Beatles had such magic and chemistry

WOW!!! One of his best live concerts, possibly even his most creative! New takes on old songs, just stunning. PAUL at his peak. But then again, he was always peaking. Yet another peak! And his band was a fabulous group of musicians in their own rights!

Why does everybody have to rate musical greats with other musical greats? None of them are in competition and often play on the same albums or on stage together. But there's always somebody who says this guitar player is better than that one, or singer sounded better in his younger years. Paul and the Beatles were so innovative in what they did for pop music and very innovative because of what they did in the studio. Some will say it wasn't them as much as it was George Martin, but he only made the ideas they had work. Same with the engineers. John would say he wanted his voice to sound like it was under water and they came up with a way to do it. The thing is, things like that changed how the recording process was done. Paul said they wanted every song to sound unique. Most bands have a certain sound but not the Beatles. Each song had it's own sound. Paul and John wrote over nearly 400 songs together, in their years together. They also each wrote their own songs after the Beatles broke up. For the most part, they kept the same unique style going, giving each song it's own identity and sound. These unique sounds became a Beatles trademark. Musicians will tell you they were watching Ed Sullivan when the Beatles were on and that made them want to be musicians. I was one of those. I think you can safely say any of the present great musicians of today can say the same thing. The Beatles brought a different style of music to life and it stirred the urge in several thousand kids to be like them. I can mention many great musicians in great bands who credit the Beatles for getting them into music. Members of Kansas, Transatlantic and Flying Colors, the Eagles and on and on. If you were to ask most any musician today, under the age of 65 or so, they were in front of their TV set watching the Beatles. Those who are quite a bit younger than that still have benefited from the Beatles, in the studio and in instrumentation of songs, and even harmonies. Pop music as a whole owes an awful lot to the Beatles as a group and as individuals. Singularly, they all went out and made their own mark after the Beatles, in one way or another. They took their fans with them and created even more musicians out of many of them. So, I don't care who can sound better at bass than Paul, or sing better. Both of those are opinions and everybody has one. Music is that way. Everybody has likes and dislikes and that's OK. But you don't go around saying one guy is better than the other, because he's not better...he's just different. Paul has been doing what he does for many years. God willing, he'll be doing it for many more. In the process, he'll be gaining more young fans who have never heard of the Beatles and maybe they will want to be a musician after hearing one of his songs. I don't care how good someone else is at playing an instrument. If you can inspire someone to be a musician just by playing music yourself, that's a very special skill to have. Just count the musicians the Beatles have inspired, or the ones Paul has inspired. So, not only do we have Paul's music to listen to, we also have the music of all of those he inspired. Now if that isn't a wonderful legacy, I don't know what is. Thank you Paul, for inspiring me that night in 1964, on the Ed Sullivan stage with John, George and Ringo. I'll be forever grateful for my ability to play and write music. I might have done it on my own, if I hadn't heard you play, but maybe not. I shudder to think how my life would have been, without music.

Paul McCartney is the greatest musician of all time!

Some folks may have a pre-concieved idea about him. If they would actually listen to his albums and cool out takes they might be amazed as well. His voice is the best in Popular music.

Paul never could really leave the beatles indeed, because he was himself the beatles itself

"Fixing a Hole" really brings back the 60's and the memories. Paul is in fine voice and has a great bunch backin' him; tight band. Always loved this line up.

Wonderful he did "My Love" whilst Linda was still in the band! Dig it!

Great. Macca clearly having a great time and his voice was in fine form. Great show! I saw him in Tampa stadium in 1990 or '91 and when he did Live And Let Die and the explosions went off, the whole sky lit up and the place went bat shit crazy...at show's end Paul thanked the city for letting him "Put on our little light show." Heh, you would have thought a war had broke out. Extremely dramatic. Feel honored to have seen him perform live.

Paul McCartney. The modern day Mozart.

He so loves early rock and roll, cuz, like so many others, it saved his life. And made his life. Never too tired to rock!

my #1 idol till now.paul mccartney.god bless

2019 To those who criticize Macca, please try playing the bass while singing...let alone sing in tune... This guy is the GOAT!

I have love this man for over 57 years, and still love him to this very day!! Soo proud of my love!! 😘😘😘❤❤❤

Saw him for the best stadium concert ever in 2013 - three solid hours of non-stop greatness that will be hard to beat by anyone!

He is the greatest one that ever and forever

Paul is simply the GOAT. Had the privilege of seeing him live a few years ago and it was easy to see he still very much loves performing and making people happy. May God continue to bless him with a long, healthy, happy life.

Linda McCartney i think was under rated and i always thought her backups were great especially in wings. RIP Linda you were awesome.

Maestro de Maestros, un GENIO, toca todos los instrumentos, no hay nadie igual. Que tal base musical, reamente no hay palabras para describir. Tenemos la suerte de tenerlo. Desde Callao-Peru.

The first song is what he sung to John the first time he met him and what convinced John that Paul should be in the group. We owe so much to it tbh

Absolutely brilliant!!!Wonderfull!!!what a special Gigi!

His best post beatles band. Robbie is an amazing guitarist. Great upload. thanks

What else can you say??....Amazing!!! Paul

One of the many reasons I like Paul so much is that he makes all kinds of music in fact the best musician in the word ❤️🎸

First time seeing this ..what a treat, I was Fortunate to see Paul and this very band at old foxboro stadium around the same time. NOW THAT WAS THE TREAT ABOVE ALL TREATS

31 years later and Sir Paul is still going strong 🎵🎶🎹

Paul is the best, a genious, sings and plays instruments, with feeling, he's a living legend, there will never be anyone like him, will be loved forever. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

It's amazing because he still uses the same keyboard player

I think this is by far the BEST lineup McCartney ever had in his solo career.

There is nothing better than enjoying Paul's creativity....

I was at this show (or one of them - there were 2 shows on consecutive nights). It was quite an experience. Managed to meet Paul briefly afterward and get his autograph. Already a long time ago!

Paul ist the best. Great Performance.

Paul was hittin' on all 6 cylinders in this wonderful time capsule concert. Thanks to all of you for the appreciative comments and feedback. A Beatle at the peak of his powers! 12:43

He looks 30 when hes 50, I guess, that explains why he looks 55 when hes 75 now !

When you are 50 and you can still "rock" a mullet, that is pretty cool. IMO nobody does 50's rock better than McCartney and his album of 50's songs years later was great. Really enjoyed the songs from "Off The Ground" album.

Love to see 1990’s Macca and the lovely Linda

Excellent performers the band of Sir Paul McCartney & company

Boy I could watch this stuff all day and night. McCartney is the Melody Maestro. Up close and personal is the best way to see him. Love It Glenn Augustyn

The best McCartney band. Robbie McIntosh is such a delight to listen to. Hamish Stuart is a perfect all around musician and a truly great singer. Wix...!

the best he can still sing live i saw him in san diego if he rests a while between concerts his voice still sounds great that night in san diego he was amazing , and i was very impressed, he sings in a high register and this is sure hard over the years, but i heard paul live in 1976 and in 2015 in san diego he did not miss a beat

Wow---absolutely one of the best video bits of Sir Paul in a live performance. Amazing how the Sullivan Theater looks so different between his first appearance there and then when it became Letterman's home. What a delight seeing Paul at 50 so active and very much the ultimate musician and performer. So I am totally smitten by the make up artist---she's simply gorgeous. Does anyone know who she is and what she's up to these days? She has to have good memories of those two nights. Thanks for sharing this video!

Super musical genius.

Yes, Paul McCartney is the greatest musician of all time!! :)

Paul is the living legend. Full of talent guy..

In my opinion, one of the best lineups Paul ever had in his band.

Legend...... All Time Great!

My favorite McCartney band post 1970.

tnks for your music....we love you Paul.

Thanks for all the great performances I've ever had the pleasure viewing.

This concert was so interesting. Great band & great renditions. Thanks so much for uploading! 💕

Linda looks so beautiful! We miss youu Paul is so amazing as always!! 💓

Love watchin Linda and Paul together, seen em twice in Detroit

Greatess of all time !!!

I time travelled to the 60s when Sir Paul sung 'Penny Lane'.

Great concert!

This is really great!!

He put out a live album about this same time with all these same songs on it. Fantastic. I had it on casete. Played it so much until the tape broke. I was taping it back together for years with missing parts.......Loved it....

Bèatlès will always be my favorite music!

What a wonderful performer and performance. Love, love all of Paul’s songs. Thank you, Paul for the memories!

Pure gold from the master himself sir Paul McCartney

one word, brilliant :)

Maravilloso concierto, gracias por compartir. 🤙👏👏👏👏👏❤️

Amazing bloke….he looks 30 not 50! The greatest ever.

The bluegrass version of 'Can't Buy Me Love' shows how much the Beatles were influenced my American music, be it Chuck Berry, Buddy Holly, Little Richard, etc.

This was the band lineup when I saw him in Toronto in the early 90's at the old CNE Stadium. Fantastic concert.

Can’t buy me love...country...awesome! Loved this video!

Was at this show....great one!

I wish I could see him live long live my sweet paul RIP Lovely Linda

This was So enjoyable to see..so many yrs. I never saw this blend of guitar players..Fantastic!!Thank you for sharing this..Paul ..Wow..Still miss Lovely Lynda!!!

Sir Paul McCartney goes down in modern history as the greatest singer/ songwriter/musician of all time. Not many had a voice that compared to his - especially in his younger years. He could even scream and yell on key. Listen to "I Want To Hold Your Hand" and "Twist and Shout" if you don't believe me. As far as songwriting goes, his list of incredible hits is far too long to list. His musicianship is probably the area most don't really understand. He played bass, rhythm guitar, lead guitar, keyboards, and drums (yes, drums... he played them in 'Back in the USSR' and other songs) while in the Beatles. He played ALL the instruments on his first solo album - entitled simply "McCartney" - after the Beatles broke up. Sir Paul McCartney has been recently quoted as having said that he just might deserve to be in the top 20 greatest in modern history. No, Sir Paul, you underestimate yourself. You are - and always will be - number one.

Please come to Gothenburg soon and play your fantastic songs, Rock on. Sir Paul.

How can anybody not believe MACCA is the best musician ever ! Diversity of songs ! Instruments he plays ! Words and music ! Not even the classical composers can match that ! and I mean NONE ! Oh and yes he performs his vast array to the masses throughout the world from the UK USA Australia All of Europe Russia Peru Mexico Et Al I rest my case !

Paul McCartney is awesome singer and song writer alot of awesome songs, I remember him singing hey Jude in 1971, when I was 5.
