One After 909 - Paul McCartney (Live At The Apollo Theater 2010)

[@colintaylor1435]

Thank goodness that The Beatles occured during my life. Will never happen again.

[@aBeatleFan4ever]

The 'One After 909' is probably the oldest Beatle song that they ever recorded. The song was written as early as 1957, and is one of the first Lennon-McCartney compositions. "That was something I wrote when I was about seventeen." - John Lennon "It's a great favourite of mine because it has great memories for me of John. We were trying to write a bluesy freight-train song. There were a lots of those songs at the time, like Midnight Special by Lead belly. We wrote the 'One After 909'. The girl in the song didn't get the 909, she got the one after it." - Paul McCartney John turned 17 on October 9th, 1957. Paul met John in July of 1957 and they began their amazing partnership that year. It is quite likely that John brought the beginnings of the song to Paul - and then they finished it together. That is what happened with a LOT of their songs. One would bring in a basic idea - and then they would finish the song together.

I’ll follow the Sun, When I’m 64 are older

[@aBeatleFan4ever]

@@2Als1pod - Paul said he remembers writing "I'll Follow the Sun" at Forthlin Road in the late fifties, a day after he recovered from a bout of the flu. He added that he remembers standing in the parlour, with his guitar, looking out through the lace curtains of the window while writing it. "LATE" fifties seems later than 1957... to me. And there is a Beatles rehearsal tape of them playing an early version of the song in the summer of 1960. That suggests that it may have been written closer to 1959 - than 1957. Paul said that he wrote the music for "When I'm Sixty-Four" in 1958 when he was 16. He used to play it as an instrumental on the piano. He did not add words to it in until 1966.

Took My son to see Paul 2010!! WE will go again and again!!

[@dkcocopun]

john sang the lower part on the verses. he sang lead on the middle part ("pick up my bag, run to the station...) a great one from "Let it Be"

[@Truddd]

The boys sung this song waaaaaaaaaaay before "Let it Be".

[@jamesnoble8205]

This was the only song on that album that had any pizazz

[@SylentEcho]

Paul is so cool even in this day and age!

[@NP20348]

This song is from John Lennon..... don't mistake fellow

[@SylentEcho]

@@NP20348 We know, man. John was behind most of their early stuff until Rubber Soul. Sometimes I like that era of The Beatles even better.

[@SabbathMobRules]

Paul and his band are excellent

[@meanderer06513]

I'd always felt that...if they are doing a Beatles' song, they should try to do it as faithful to the original as possible. Allowing his band to have their own 'interpretation' about how to play...say, a guitar solo, is sacrilegious.

[@Karenginna]

Paul you amazing

[@CARLWISE2008]

Brilliant !!

la mejor dupla paul y john lennon....

[@andyantoniou2096]

these guys are seriously good!!!!

[@angelo7513]

No one can sing the songs of John better than Paul because very few knew John better than Paul.

[@colintaylor1435]

Paul does it well but song belongs to John ( & Paul) together on rooftop :)

[@jonasrmb01]

get a grip his backup singers sound way better than him he is pretty bad here already

[@mesalgadomd]

One of the first early John Lennon´s song!.

[@boscocod6801]

I know they did. it was from the early 60's. Willie Nelson also does a version of it.

[@caioramalho22]

Thanks for sharing! I didn't know this. A great cover indeed!

[@romuloazevedo7401]

Show !!!!

[@mauriziodorigo8192]

Best!!!!

[@Rushmore222]

Paul's Hofner is so fucking badass.

[@BackToTheBlues]

Short-scale basses are often considered toys or beginner basses, but are very under-rated and sound really good. You know that fantastic thumping bassline on Keep On Running by The Spencer Davis Group? That's a Harmony H22, short scale!

I love Sir Paul, but I do miss John's vocals on this.

Well, the old recordings with John still exist. 😊👍

Paul cantando una composicion de John ✌️

[@countalucard4226]

Traveling on the one after 909. Sounds like a John Lennon lyric all the way. He loved words

[@HolgerRuneFan]

It's a completely Lennon composition. Paul had nothing to do with it.

Is the audio in this video from the radio broadcast

[@tiburcio100]

It's co-written with Paul.

[@YARROWS9]

Ballocks . John wrote this when he was nineteen.Because he isn't around do you think you can just say just about every song he wrote was Co written or a 60/40 or a 70/30.Did he write any songs himself god dam it.

[@meanderer06513]

Calm down! There's no need to get so fired up. Paul even said in 'Let It Be' that John had written it when he was a teenager...one of the first songs he'd written...Paul didn't claim any part of it. He clearly said it was a song John had written. There's no need to get yer knickers in a twist. :/

Not bad for an old guy. ;-) The poignancy…. 30 years after John’s death

[@lamper2]

cavern club rehearsal better

[@cismercier8009]

That was before he ruined his voice. The song was written by John Lennon, but he of course has all the right to render it.

[@ЮрийЧайкин-х6б]

The Beatles played it much much better.... with a lot of fury...

[@gribwitch]

The rooftop version was far better. This is a bit of a mess.
