Paul McCartney (with Dave Gilmour) - Honey Hush [PETA, LIVE]

Peta Party of the Century, 1999 Concert. Paul McCartney & Friends: The PETA Concert for Party Animals documents a September 18, 1999 charity concert for PETA, People For the Ethical Treatment of Animals, the highlight of which is a short set by Paul McCartney, one of his first live appearances after the 1998 death of his wife Linda.
McCartney's six-song set ends the show on a high note. All the songs are drawn from his 1999 album Run Devil Run, which was largely an album of covers, the rock 'n' roll music he loved. This love comes through strongly in his set, beginning with a rousing "Honey Hush," and his perfectionism comes through when he stops the band during the intro of "Brown-Eyed Handsome Man," insisting the song didn't start well (he's right). The rest of the set is split between the slow-tempo, soulful numbers "No Other Baby" and "Lonesome Town," and the high-spirited "Try Not To Cry" and "Run Devil Run"

The 'idiot' is Mick Green (The Pirates), Pete Townshend's idol and biggest influence. I think there is only one idiot in this thread and it's not Mick.

R.I.P Mick Green, Master of the telecaster

laughing all the way to the 50's!..funny how Paul could write Yesterday, Here, There, Everywhere, Hey Jude, Fool On The Hill, Eleanor Rigby and yet wanted to be Chuck Berry or Little Richard on stage?

Is that fake leather that paul's wearing, because i'm pretty sure it wouldnt wear a real one especially at a PETA party

Mick Green was held in the highest regard by many musicians. When Paul McCartney did the 'Russian' album, who did he call for guitar?. Mick Green. Macca could have had anyone. He chose Mick.

Mick was one of the most influential guitarists. His influence on the Beatles has been documented. He has played on so many records, influenced so many guitarists. Notice how he goes from Johnny Burnette type twanging to chords to solo, and it is seamless. Look up The Pirates and rock yer socks off.

Odd to see Dave playing a tele but nice to see him play something thats not depressing.

Paul is at base a rocker, though he obviously is a master of the ballad. And rock here he does.
