EOB - In Isolation With... Paul McCartney

[@brunobb1]

It can't be a Paul McCartney interview without him explaining how Let It Be came in a dream.

I just watched a doc on all the beatles number 1 songs and seeing a young Paul in black and white during his youth from over a half century ago. To see this icon at almost 80 years old still involved and active in music and culture is mind boggling. Not only is Paul a great musician, but he is a great human being. To remain relevant for almost 60 years in this fast paced modern society is truly something to behold. He was a main cog in the British Invasion , and has outlasted stadium classic rock, punk, disco, new wave, hair metal/ 80s pop, grunge, nu metal, gangster rap, 90s boy band /Britney spears era, and now the complete change of the way music is distributed to the public is almost too hard to make sense of. His navigation of all of these changes has been breathtaking to witness. He is a true world treasure

[@sleedeal8010]

So true-I love how he rattles off all manner of musical styles: from Beck to Massive Attack and to the great James Jameson…even producers like Nigel Goodrich and Rick Rubin. So much respect for artists who champion and welcome younger acts with curiosity and openness. I always thought David Bowie was amazing for that reason as well.

[@ricopaulson1]

Paul mentioning how it can be stressful or pressuring to be "P Mac" was an eye opening insight. It's easy to forget he is just a guy with a back catalog of genius. I never thought about the pressure he might feel in all situations to be the genius we all know, even though he might be a bit off that day, or feeling his way through an idea. As musicians we can't be "on" all the time. Going into a new creative situation might be just as nerve-racking for Paul as it is for the person working with him. Due to the praise he gets all day, every day. He might feel he has to live up to a legend that was made for him. Even though he never sanctioned that legend.

Paul's such a super-cool-happy-love-thing he teaches humanity how to be on the top of their game. Find what you love and share it. Show up and be nice. Tune yourself and have fun. Enjoy all you can, keep creating, keep saying yes to yourself and grow. Since 1963 Paul has taught me infinite things about music, life, and optimism. Everything is learned.

Ever since I first plucked the Vintage 1964 Hofner Beatle Bass there in a used guitar store (Pittsburgh Guitars ) in 1983 when I was 14 years old, I was imeadiatly hooked. Years later I was very lucky to have bought a Rickenbacker 4001C64 McCartney Signature Series Bass. I love both basses very much. They have very different sounds & feels. Sir Paul, you gotta break out the Ricky again. I know it is heavier than the Hofner. Don't you miss playing it? Please take it out on tour when pandemic is over.
