Concord started as Concord Jazz,a small label of mainstream jazz recordings. It’s original facility was the office of the Concord,CA car dealer who founded it. It provided late in life career revivals for jazz stars including producing some of the best recordings of Rosemary Clooney and Mel Torme after the big labels had given up on them. Seems that McCartney is hoping for similar results.
Yoko is a creepy evil person. The Rutles portrayed (Neil Innes) John character’s wife as a nazi and daughter of Goebels or something. John and Yoko were/are not nice people. Lennon without McCartney and vice versa is/was cr*p. George (singularly) was a better songwriter.
George helped bankroll The Rutles and had a cameo in it. The sad part was Eric Idle (Monty Python) is a nasty man who sued Neil Innes (nice man).
Idle patched it up because he wanted to do a Broadway version of the Rutles and the music belonged to Innes.
