Paul McCartney? Wasn’t he in a band once?

He should marry Yoko Ono to get his creative juices flowing again.

Never EVER put the words "Yoko Ono", "juices", and "flowing" together in the same sentence again. Ever.

Sgt. Peppers was the album that Paul wanted to do so he wouldn’t have to write “Beatle songs” anymore.

In the end, we liked Beatle songs better than what came afterwards (solo or as a group).

Many now hold up Revolver (and in some cases Rubber Soul) as stronger albums.

Too bad about the Beatles, The truly great ones are dead.

The Best on is still around...

Green Day are the Frankie Avalon or Poison of today. Hardly worth mentioning, except for album sales.

The industry has shunned the talented rock acts for decades. Ever since Woodstock showed the industry just how much money could really be made.

Look at the Grammy winners/nominees and then look at music history. What the industry champions and what historians recognize are two different things. Wasn’t always so.

Ed Sullivan, Merv Griffen, and the Tonight Show actually gave exposure to different types of bands. The industry is more in control of the media than ever before.

McCartney is a no talent pig.

Ouch!

I am not a big supporter of the Beatles, I ripped Sgt. Pepper's in another thread and on this one I stated early on that Paul Mccartney has not been doing much musically for years. But that does seem a tad harsh, even to me.

It does take some talent to write that many silly songs that appeal to the 11-14 year old crowd.

He didn't know how to play it (a Ukelele), but worked on it till he could

The man has way to much time on his hands.

It does suck. Paul could do much, much better than that.

It was a mandolin, not a ukelele. Big difference.

Did you listen to the whole album or just read the lyrics somewhere? Looks like you just started a thread to bash PM.
