The fact of the matter is that if paul wasn't a musical genius then why would the beatles be studied at A-Level music, which i did, and let me tell you it was very hard and very complicated. A composer has even said that leaving home is as good as anything Schubert composed. Popular music would not be what it is without Paul and John.
John and Paul are equally good... one is not better than the other one... John and his lyrics and songwritting while Paul with music and composition. these two completed each other... so John = Paul.
If Paul McCartney's not a musical genius...then I don't know who is...him and maybe Brian Wilson. And if I'm not mistaken, Pet Sounds was a reaction to Rubber Soul and some have said Pet Sounds is the greatest album of all time. Wilson may have been a nutcase, but he's a living legend in the music industry...along with Sir Paul of course...both men are true International treasures.
Forget about who was more talented, a better musician, singer or songwriter. let's just be thankful that these two not only met but inspired and drove each other to make music that means so much to so many people. Talk about prolific..most recording artists would kill to have created just a handful of their catalog. Beatles = Greatest Band Ever!
@XxGINDIxX If pual did not have talent, Sgt Pepper, Magical Mystery Tour, etc..would have never been made..they were equal musicians on their own but GODS together....
@XxGINDIxX Mate there equal, but both nowhere as good as when they are together, both of their creativity dried up slightly after the Beatles, nothing of John's solo stuff was as good as Strawberry Field, A Day in the Life or Mr.Kite and nothing on Paul's solo stuff was as good Penny Lane and She's leaving Home
I'm waitin' for James McCartney's album, that's supposed to come out this year. Paul supposedly helped him on it, or IS helping him on it. I wanna hear if he has any of Paul's angelic gift for melodies, and how his voice sounds :)
John was obviously very talented and I do prefer his voice...but Paul can play just about any instrument better than John. Anyways lets not get into this typical Paul vs John fight instead letscall it Paul + John= Greatest team of all time ;)
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
wth... you must be old school or something... if you call Paul + John the greatest team of all time, what do you call Soulja Boy and arab? Let's be real here ok.
I think this is his best solo record he's ever made. Cuts you to the bone unlike alot of his older stuff. I think he's taken a leaf out of John's book and told it straight good for him
Paul Has made so much of his life he is incredable and if he were to sit here on youtube and read some of these second grade comments of 5 year olds who dont know about real music critise him..I sorry but all the "Rock bands" you all like will have been inspired by the beatles wow hes amazing and incredable and so are all the other beatles You all need to relize how lucky we are too see such a great man play
Koldrockrecords, that tells me more about what you know, then what Paul has done in his life. What have you done that you can even begin to critique this music. You sir are just another fucking moron that comes along.
Paul helped change the world. You sit in judgement????? Asscap
too good! well im not his better fan, but i like his music, well does anybody knows about a video of like 3 years ago.. he were singing at studio, with a piano, and the liryc say something like c'mon brother, sorry about de mistakes the english is not my lengauge-XD
i know this seems random but john frusciante of the red hot chili peppers does the same thing he just records great music with simple technology and old instruments in his living room.
Amazing music. I would've loved to be at Abbey Road watching this happen in person. Paul's got to be one of the most talented songwriters in the 21st century. I mean think about it, The Beatles broke up 37 years ago...yet their music continues to sell, and a new generation discovers their albums/singles everyday. This music will live on.
Chaos And Creation In The Backyard is such a amazing record. It has a very moody sound witch soots Paul realy well. Songs like Jenny Wren, At the Mercy, This Never Happened Before, Riding to Vanity Fair are songs that will be remembered and loved in long time. But the album will not get the praise it deserves before Paul are gone...
It does kinda feel like Cash's "Hurt". But I'm just a sucker for acoustic work, artists like McCartney and Cash getting back to their roots, just their voice and the guitar. So much better then some music (and not just today's) getting too overdone. But that's just my opinion.
