Paul McCartney Archive Collection - 'Forthcoming Releases' [TBC]

​

Paul borrowed from Astrid Kircherr

 

Reportedly, McCartney told him, "You know, I really don't like to do what other people tell me to do," and the kid was so traumatized by this personality defect that he left school and rode the trains as a hobo for the rest of his life! Vol 2 coming soon.

 

It's pretty interesting, isn't it?

 

A showman makes for show. I guess it depends on your definition of interesting. It's kind of expected.

I think it's a little more interesting that the guy who called the press in to interview him in bed with his wife felt like he needed to point out someone's desire for attention.

 

Makes sense. I certainly wouldn't call it a personality defect. I find it interesting that this trait can be found over the years, starting as a kid. We all have things like that. I think your lens of "entertainer" is pretty spot on. He also likes to be goofy, too. Seems like a fun guy.

I think John was calling attention not to himself, but his message of peace, using his celebrity as a vehicle for a larger awareness, but I'm not opening that can of worms.

 

He's certainly kept me entertained for three solid decades.

OK, being honest, you guys talking with me about it have carried his "keeping me entertained" load for the last few years. He's kind of become a tool in that time. So it all works out.

Lennon cared about peace because the press cared about him caring about peace. If they'd cared about the homeless at that time, he'd have become a homeless advocate. If they'd cared about domestic abuse - well, he might have imploded into a supernova. Who knows?

 

I wonder if Lewisohn will address this in Vol. 3.

 

There was a lot of McCartney back story left out in Vol 1, hopefully corrected in Vol 2.

 

Yes, we will find out many more of McCartney's deep emotional flaws and everyone else's daily routines and instrument purchases in volume 2! Can't wait.

 

Price of plectrums?

 

Just when I thought I couldn't be more excited for Vol. 2...

 

LEAKED Volume 2 revelation: Questionable lyrics at the end of Strawberry Fields aren't Cranberry Sauce, they're "I tolerated Paul."

 

Vol 2.
Preface 100 pages.

 

Vol 2: History: British isles.
People used newspapers for toilet paper also to wrap fish suppers. Also as word usage in Sgt Pepper " newspaper taxis".

 

I remember back in 2015 I was in Amsterdam, checking out the many cannabis coffee shops, when I bumped into this Dutch hipster who told me they really liked my "New" album. I thought that was amazing because I had just finished putting the finishing touches on it. But then I was like "oh, that other "New" album... That sort of made me realize , y’know, that "New" wasn’t as bad as I thought because I’d always sort of dismissed it as not being very good. And y’know actually there’s a few tracks that I remembered I love like "New" of course, and even one I’d forgotten doing like "Alligator” which was really like a short story y'know, not any personal experience. I did that with "Elanor Rigby" as well. It's like not me singing it y'know, it's this other guy, like your alter ego and you become this character- Paul McCartney

 

It´s another clue...dead people doesn´t wear shoes ( like in abbey road ),,,,,,,or hats...!!!!.....

 

How did they run out of red flowers?

"Ok, now it's time for the "Your Mother Should Know" scene. There's no point checking if we have enough red flowers. Action!"

 

Makes more sense than "Paul is dead."

 

"How many Beatles are there? Three, right?"

 

appendix, 350 pages

 

I think you're confused. The 350 pages about Ringo's burst appendix were in Vol 1.

 

Lennon premonition ?

 

Well you have to remember this was Magical Mystery Tour. This was not really a very well planned production. LOL It's entirely probable they left buying the flowers until the last minute(which does make a kind of sense, you don't want them to wilt before you use them) and then the local florist only had 3 red ones left. There are actually plenty of instances where John is the one doing something a little different or wearing something a little different. And seriously how is Paul taking off his sandals some big statement but John walking around in an all white suit is just like everyone else? Paul took off his shoes, John wore all white - neither one is being more attention seeking than the other.

As for the school picture, if you notice these are not all well behaved kids sitting perfectly smiling (or frowning) for their class picture. Half the class is looking around, not looking at the camera, those little girls in the front seem to have a grand old time chatting. Heck they may have done it on purpose "when he goes to snap the picture let's all DO something!" and then some of them did. I mean look at most of the Beatles other class photos, they aren't nearly as haphazard as this one looks, which does suggest there may have been a plan behind it.(Frankly knowing Paul's mischievous nature as a youngster--I believe there is a quote from a family member comparing the McCartney boys to a "circus" once lol-- it could even have been his idea, he was kind of known for coming up with ideas like that, it's one of the reasons he was popular, he was smart and a hard worker but he was fun).

Though of course if John had been doing it it would have been a sign of his rebellious nature and off beat sense of humor showing itself at an early age. Being Paul, of course it naturally it seems to get painted in a negative cynical light as just being "attention seeking" even though he was just a little boy.

 

I would have thought Paul would give us any upcoming news on something. At least news on his new album. Whats the latest prediction about that one?
