Sneaky Beatle trivia Paul is in Fab video after all !

The guy who is holding the LP looks like Robbie Mcintosh.

 

I reckon it's a lookie-likie.

 

The blonde haired lady looks a tad like Cynthia as well!

 

That's it! You got it. Thanks.

 

Yeah, if I view it at higher res, I suppose I could imagine it to be Simon, after all...

 

Rockline - I forgot about that show!

 

George & Ringo, Paul's walks past, a guy in a walrus suit. Another man carrying Lennon's Imagine album, Elton John in a track suit, Paul Simon pushing Vegis,,,,, clues, but what does it all mean ?

The walrus was Artie, no, Dylan's Inside a glass onion no, Ringo rode a magic carpet no ?

Paul really did play on Fab ? Probably not.... but if they pulled off this inside joke for 29 years, maybe there's a few more things that are still Beatles secrets, was there any other song or situation alluding to the Beatles, where they got together prior to Anthology & recorded or filmed or anything

 

This is is exciting but would anyone get this excited if John Oates appeared (very briefly, and maybe not him, but possibly) in one of Daryl Hall's solo videos? I hope so because John Oates would deserve it.

 

No I don't think most people would. Andy & Barney maybe.

 

So...he didn't show up for the R&R Hall of Fame induction because of the ongoing lawsuit...

...but he showed up to appear with his head turned away from the camera in a blurry, distorted image in George's video.

Makes sense.

 

Paul and George didn't seem to be getting along too well at this time. Lots of barbs from George towards McCartney in interviews promoting Cloud Nine.

 

I read somewhere that the fellow walking across with the Imagine album is Julian Lennon! Is that right?

 

It's Neil Aspinall, supposedly.

 

It's Neil Aspinall, supposedly.

Thanks Drifter!

 

Well a cool Not April Fools joke.

Fun to read that George, Ringo & Paul (along with Neil, Elton, Paul Simon & Jeff Lynne) had cheeky sense of humor with all the Difficulty in life, chill to watch this again after all these years!

Thank you OP!

 

Sure looks like Paul from that period with the long hair and chubby face.

 

Although I'm 99.7% convinced, I'm reading not everyone agrees.

The way my Beatles conspiracy mind works, I'm already looking for additional clues to lost songs, & secret demos, the way some people look for the lost Atlantis & undiscovered pyramids. Seriously I can see why nobody caught this, but I can't believe nobody caught this.

Maybe there's a weird deal, where you play the video at 1/2 speed & George & Paul pop out with guitars, singing an unknown song about the Beatles in India, with Ann Margret & Raquel Welch like a hidden track

 

The hair looks kinda curly... Thats why Im not convinced.

 

In other words, it looks like about a million other people too.

 

I don't have a link but Paul said in an interview that he was invited to be in the video but had a scheduling conflict. My money is on no Paul.

 

The man himself looked very much like a 64-65 vintage John as well so would not be surprised if both that and the wavy "Paul" were intended to be a ruse.

 

Paul wasn't able to make it the SET where the other guys were but he could have been videotaped anywhere.

It's clearly a video insert.

 

I don't see any proof why it would be Paul other than "the hair looks similar". It could be anyone.

 

You really should read the wogblog article. Which explains how a film crew, went later to McCartney's location, & got some footage of McCartney, to stick in with the main footage. Which the writer says they did.

 

I'm sorry, but if that is Paul Simon, then I am Art Garfunkel.
