[@bootney66]

I believe Paul too. I think John had come full circle by 1980. In fact, on December 8, 1980, it was reported that John told a journalist this about Paul: “He’s like a brother. I love him. Families, we certainly have our ups and downs and quarrels. But at the end of the day, when it’s all said and done, I would do anything for him. I think he would do anything for me.”

John did some interviews sometime around 1975 where he talked about the Beatles getting back together. He said if someone else arranged it, he would do it. He said they had almost gotten together a few other times, but each time someone else was busy or didn’t want to do it right then, but that all four of them had wanted to do it at different times. They just had to find a time when all four wanted to do it at the same time. You can find the interview on KZbin, usually cut up into bits, but John is wearing a striped scarf. I was surprised to also find some video of George saying he hoped the Beatles would record together again sometimes. I think this was more early 70s.

I think SNL was the best opportunity around that time. IIRC, John and Paul were at John's place in NY, and George was the musical guest that week. Lorne Michaels had been making a joke about offering the Beatles $3000 to reunite on the show, and John and Paul on a whim thought they should show up. But then one of them got tired, and decided against it. But the point is, there was no personal animosity that stopped them from ever playing together again. It would have happened eventually, but for John's assassination.

[@doctorstreamspunk9996]

My takeaway from Peter Jackson's GET BACK is that Paul was the guy who worked hard to keep the band together, but that John and George were done. John, because Yoko was the new center of his world, and George so he could get his music heard. Paul was no villain and the rest were no saints. They were just 4 nice brillant young guys who needed to grow up, and Beatles had become a middle school fraternity arresting their development. They graduated and moved on to what was most important to each of them.

[@BaronVonMunch]

Not everyone is saying Paul was a villain and the others were saints. You seem to gloss over the fact that Paul was directing everything and the others were not keen on that. Paul didn't seem to want to accept much compromise. No one can claim that what Paul wanted in Get Back made any sense. Here is what Paul wanted and it's pretty crazy: They all show up at start of Jan '69 to perform what they believe to be a live concert of White Album songs for a tv show. When they show up, Paul tells them that instead they are creating a brand new album of 14 songs that need to be written and rehearsed for a live concert at the end of the month. Paul also wants to travel to another country for the concert and possibly do it on a ship at sea. The fact that Ringo is currently filming a movie with Peter Sellers doesn't deter Paul. Of course, Paul has already shown up with some material that he'd been working on because he knew what he wanted to do. Right away, Lennon tells Paul that he should have told him so he could have been working on some songs. The other 3 probably should have told Paul off right there and said that they will only do the White Album songs as planned. And that would have been an amazing concert to see. I think we were robbed. Why the others even tried to go along with Paul's crazy plan, I have no idea. No way an Epstein or Martin would have come up with something like this. It seems the biggest issue they had is the other 3 even trying to do what Paul asked. For the entire Get Back, the other 3 are constantly waiting to see whether Paul was happy or not with every single idea. I can see why the other 3 got so frustrated, but it was their fault for even trying to go along with it to satisfy Paul in the first place. Lennon even said to Paul in that private conversation that he had become somewhat scared of Paul. This is ultimately why everything fell apart. They did get back together and do Abbey Road properly which shows what they could still do as long as it was managed in the right way. The Let It Be sessions were doomed from the start.

[@danielkokal8819]

sounds about right. George needed space and was becoming Hindu. John balls were in Yoko's purse and veered into political activism. Ringo just wanted a job. Paul took over after Epstein died because no one else was doing it, creating a power imbalance.

Also Paul wasn’t secretly preparing material for the project that he knew he wanted to do. He was always writing so those were just songs he had around. It’s a crazy idea to do it that fast but they all went along with it. Paul can work fast so it wasn’t crazy to him and they should have said something if they didnt want to do it Also it was Paul who was unsatisfied with the way the Get Back project turned out. Paul went to George Martin to have him come back and properly record an album like they used to, which is how we got Abbey Road

[@WilliamHerlihy-p4g]

You're right. The only way I could have pictured them reuniting (had they lived long enough) was at one of Ringo's All Star Band shows. Maybe run out and do an encore together. Getting together under the "B" name brought too much baggage. But as the latest iteration of the ASB, it could have worked. Mainly, I think, because John and George would found it funny. And Paul wouldn't want to be left out.

[@reneestewart9425]

From people that were around John stated he did go back-and-forth I've heard it several times over the years. That being said for legal reasons they couldn't get together. Paul couldn't come into the states John couldn't leave. Also it's been confirmed that they were planning on getting together following Christmas the year he died. I don't think as a band though. I think they were apprehensive as even Beatle fans were that they would be scrutinized terribly if they came back as the Beatles. I also believe in that last interview that he and Yoko did the day he died or the day before he died he stated he was going to be working with Paul. In an interview one of his assistance had said that he followed everything that Paul did. John had done an interview in 1980 where he said oh he doesn't pay attention to wings or any of that. But that it just wasn't true he followed him closely. I think it's so sad that he did not show Paul the support to see him at Madison Square, Gardens for wings over America. Evidently one of their psychic said that Paul had invited him just to rub it in. I think Paul was proud and did want his dear friend there to support him. John did say how great he thought wings was but he said it was not wings it was McCartney. He said so many complementary things about Paul throughout that 10 years. It's just said it never got as much Press as when he'd be in one of his moodsand say something mean. It's just really too bad for him for them and all of us

I'm pretty sure, I remember John mention a few times in interviews, that at one time or another, each member had tried to get it back together but there would always be a different guy say, "no". I think John was into it, right around 1974 he had a #1 album and song and probably felt like he would be in a power position again. I remember reading in May Pangs book that John was going to met up with McCartney in New Orleans (he was recording Venus and Mars) she had even booked a flight for the two of them and the next day, John changed his mind. Maybe, he suggested it to McCartney then and once he rejected the idea, he called off the trip. I guess we'll never know what really happened.

[@billjackson1317]

John said in one his last interview that if they got back together again it would be in the studio , not touring.

[@globalmonkey007]

John was definitely up for a reunion. In the Elliot Mintz interview with John on the beach in Malibu, John flat out says he'd be in as long as he didn't have to organize it. Paul was at one of his post-Beatles creative peaks during that time period and was not as nostalgic as John for a reunion in the mid 70s.

There was never any bullshit from the Beatles, an honest early career, an honest breakup and honest individual careers. Never a thought to get back together just to make more money. They have integrity and authenticity as well as an uncommon brilliance.

Lets be honest. The Beatles would have done all kinds of projects together over the years if they all survived. I'm not surprised that John suggested it, and I'm not suprised Paul wasn't ready.

Well, my drummer in the 80s was working at the studio where Paul was recording 'Venus And Mars'. Paul had called John to get him to come down....and he almost did. Not a Beatles reunion, but we know what John and Paul can produce together without anyone else. (See 'The Ballad Of John And Yoko') Yoko took the blame for John not going, of course, though it could have been any number of other things, IMO.

[@GuitarLessonsBobbyCrispy]

My girlfriend in the 80's, she had an uncle that was a co-producer with Jack Richardson ( Canadian producer who worked with The Guess Who, The Irish Rovers, Kim Mitchell and many more ). She said that her uncle tried to arrange a Beatles reunion in the 70's and was almost successful, as he had John, George and Ringo agreeing to it, but was told off by Paul since he was doing so well with Wings. I know for a fact that her uncle did indeed work with Jack Richardson, but did he really almost reunite The Beatles? I guess it's possible.

There are other things Lennon said when Beatlemania started regarding copyright issues as there was talk of them getting together. Also them being in his apartment talking about going on the set of SNL during a show. It would have happened had John lived.

[@BeauStephenson]

I believe Paul. The work that Peter Jackson did to uncover the truth around the time of the Let It Be sessions gave both Ringo and Paul a blast of clarity and confirmation that they were in fact, even during the toughest bits, still insanely creative together. Friendly. Full of energy. And that those things co-existed right alongside frustrations, growing pains, and a desire for independence. To develop their own personas and lives outside of The Beatles. After the breakup, I believe that Paul and John were in their heads a lot about it all. If they had just gotten together even a few times, it very well could have been enough to clear the air. We already know that the phone calls were having that effect. And that in the end, they all still loved each other immensely. Like a family. There's something really beautiful about that amidst all the tragedy that would happen later.

[@SanctumSanctorumVidz]

Not sure if anyone else mentioned it, but there was the night that John called Paul after SNL offered a bunch of money for a Beatles appearance (or something like that). The two guys hung out, played some music and, for a little while, actually contemplated going to the SNL studio and just popping in to play something. They quickly dismissed the idea, but for a few moments, John was really into it.

[@GarMorgan]

That was in April 1976 & was the last time they met. Paul & Linda spent an evening at the Dakota with John & Yoko. The last time J & P talked was a telephone conversation in January 1980. It was Macca who made the call. Paul continues to over-play their post- Beatles relationship to this day.

We know from audio interviews with Lennon he was very open to a reunion with McCartney at least. He said “we were the Beatles.” He might have said the opposite two days later. He often hanged his mind. My guess is that McCartney and Lennon would have written together again in the 1980’s. Paul might’ve been more receptive to a reunion in late 1980 or 1981 after he de facto ended Wings and released his solo album. I think they would’ve liked to have a go at the New Wave craze-they were 15+ years ahead of the curve.

The Beatles may have reunited for something like Live Aid. And, of course, they may have done something together for the Anthology.

(This actually did happen, but never between John and Paul.)

I've heard Paul talking about this before and he said that he was riding high with Wings at the time this was suggested and he felt some sort of revenge in vetoing the reunion.

IF he did of course... Like almost all Beatle stuff (The Klein debacle included) its all down to what you have read and what you actually believe.... and that is probably exactly how it should be 😀

I don't think anyone asked George or Ringo about any of this. John and Paul had discussed several things in the 70s.

John's comment about fans wanting a Beatles reunion is sadly, tragically clueless...well, for my part anyway. For me, it wasn't at all about "reliving the past", or any such bullcrap. The truth is that those four guys made magic together. Every album was a giant leap forward. Wanting a reunion was a vote of confidence in their *_creativity_* - their ability to create something new and fresh and different. It had nothing to do with nostalgia or reliving the past. John did seem to have chilled out by 1980, so yeah...I can believe that maybe he thought it might be a gas to get the group back together - not necessarily as any kind of ongoing commitment, and certainly not for touring....well, almost certainly. The truth is that The Beatles' audience had matured by then, and the technology for doing live shows made it possible for bands to play giant venues with awesome sound for the audience and a great audio environment on stage. They would have been able to hear themselves. Hell...by 1980, I was one of the premier stage monitor mixers in the industry. I'd have volunteered to mix their stage monitors for free! 😎

They grew content as solo artists and really didn't need to reunite.

They talked often on the phone and John would say "I won't get back together unless we each get 100 million dollars." And then Paul would say, "I'll get back together when we get paid one billion dollars" and back and forth it would go to see who was willing to pay the most.

Paul was just starting to get his solo career on track at that point, so I could understand why he wasn’t interested then. I wish they had though.

[@StevePemberton2]

I think what also seems to have gone under the radar is that John technically did not break up the Beatles, Paul did. Yes John said what he said during the meeting in September 1969, and he likely meant it. But then he didn't fully act on it, no public statements that he was leaving, no beginning of legal arrangements. The standard narrative is that he was advised to hold off while new contracts were being signed, Let it Be getting released, etc. and I'm sure he was told that and that was one of the reasons why he didn't act. But personally I suspect that at the same time he was also conflicted, definitely wanting a new independent life and career with Yoko, but also not totally sure that he wanted to completely walk away from what had become a big part of his life. I can imagine his feelings on the decision going back and forth during those months between September and April. Not that anyone likely would have been able to tell as he possibly put on an outward appearance of being resolved to his plan. Note that his decision to leave was somewhat spontaneous on the plane ride back from Toronto in early September. Sure he had been thinking about it, but he suddenly decided right after the success at the concert. By April he was possibly still unsure what he felt about it all, and then like a bombshell Paul announces (essentially) that he is leaving the group. John was reportedly angered by this, the standard narrative is that he was mad that Paul stole his thunder. I wonder though if it's because John had not fully decided that he wanted to completely break from the group and never record with them again. Paul's announcement created a finality that John had been avoiding, dreading, and may not even been sure that it's what he wanted. I don't blame Paul though, he had his problems with Alan Klein, and he thought John had already made up his mind, and probably John's actions at the time seemed to make that clear. But was it? I don't think it's totally impossible to believe that if Paul hadn't announced that he was leaving the group, that sometime in 1970 there might have been at least one more Beatles album recorded.

[@adm712]

Had John lived, I predict the Beatles would have reunited for a project in 1993 for their 30th anniversary. It would have been similar to Anthology with them recording 3 new songs. Then I predict they would have done 1 acoustic Unplugged concert on VH1 with considerable proceeds to charity, and then called it quits.

He did not even participate in their induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2016. By the same token, I have no confidence whatsoever that John would have wanted the Beatles to reunite in the time after we lost him. His posture was that they split up, and they all moved on. He might have occasionally titillated people with the idea of a reunion up until he stopped playing music all together when Sean was born, but I'm of a mind that there was not going to be a Beatles reunion for the same reason that Peter isn't going to reunite with Chicago.
