If you could ask Paul McCartney one question...and get a truthful answer.

What is your favorite achievement, and what is your greatest regret?

 

You mean these:

 

I would love to know how many women he's had (especially when he had that bachelor pad on Cavendish Ave in the 60s).... but I don't expect to ever get an answer.

 

How many Big Macs did you have whilst married to Linda ?

 

When are the Beatles getting back together?

 

Could you please make sure that excessive compression is not applied to any future Beatles and/or solo releases [and include a clause in your will to prevent future generations from doing so]?

 

What are the real lyrics to Mumbo?

 

When will the rest of Wings albums be available in Super Deluxe Editions?

 

Where you disappointed that Oobu Joobu Ecology did not win a Grammy

 

Can we write a song together?

 

Why didn't you help George with his song writing from the start? Why rely solely on Lennon for the writing partnership; especially post Epstein when John beginning to check out?

 

LOL. Praise Texans and their chili!

 

What was it like working with Elvis Costello?

 

Since we’re giving Paul a dose of veritaserum, I figure we might as well ask him some of the more loaded questions that have always intrigued Beatles fandom:

1. You were supposedly there when John beat up Stuart in Hamburg. Did he really attack Stuart? Why?
2. Why did John beat up Bob Wooler at your 21st birthday party?
3. Did Brian Epstein commit suicide or was his overdose truly an accident?
4. How much did Mal Evans contribute to the lyrics on Sgt. Pepper (Fixing a Hole, for ex)?
5. Did John, George, and Ringo really throw a brick through your living room window the night you won the Beatles lawsuit?
6. Who packed the weed that got you busted in Japan? You or Linda?
7. According to some rumors, you told John you had some great weed just before you left for Japan. Do you think Yoko and/or John set you up, and alerted Japanese police?
8. Do you or any of the other Beatles have any children that the public doesn’t know about?

 

Sorry that's too many questions

 

Aw dang. OK. I'll pick one of them:

Why did John beat up Bob Wooler at your 21st birthday party?

 

He'd probably laugh at such a TRIVIAL and RIDICULOUS question, one because he's probably not even aware, and two because he has to deal with the issue of fans in his real life!

Thinking on it further, I wouldn't ask him anything about the Beatles, that's totally tired and worn out! I'd ask about his piano playing, drumming and when he is going to officially release a live box set of the very early Wings concerts. That's something I would love to have!

Well... I might also ask about an official blu-ray of the Beatles Washington Coliseum concert.

 

"Do you think Jim Tucker overreacted?"

 

What are the three best songs you have never officially released, excluding any recorded for your upcoming album project?

 

Can Nancy skin up

 

I would guess that his mother never lived to see his success.

 

Seems like we live in the "stereo that's practically mono" age to me.

It's 50 years later and we still have the privilege of listening to Revolver and Rubber Soul in wonderful wide stereo or glorious mono. Enjoy it!

 

I'd guess his biggest regret would relate to not having a true heart to heart with John before he died.

 

What song of johns do you wish you wrote?

 

How many illegitimate children do you have?
