That Sixties Music - The 1958 McCARTNEY SONG THAT NOBODY WANTED - Not Even The Beatles

[@lissajean]

It was a kind gesture from Paul to give away a song to a friend. Oh how wonderful and free is youth!😊

[@the_guitar_trooper]

It may not have been entirely altruistic. He was, after all, dating the guy’s sister rather seriously.

[@NnNn-yr7mu]

​@@the_guitar_troopermmmmm seems he may have had other things on his mind.......

Paul McCartney is a genius. We took him for granted, or at least I did, all those years ago, but now, hearing stories like this my mind is blown. The four Beatles together? A bloomin’ miracle!!

[@harrynutzach307]

I'm sitting there with my youngest daughter (25 years old) and we're watching that "Get Back" documentary... the episode where Paul McCartney was writing the song "The Long And Winding Road" in the studio with the cameras rolling. He starts off with the first verse written, and he's starting to flesh out the second verse singing "The wild and windy night...something something, something something..." By the end of that episode he's got the song fully done and we're both floored. I look over and she's actually crying. She says "I can't believe I'm sitting here literally watching him create this beautiful masterpiece." The man is a genius.

[@the_guitar_trooper]

I couldn’t have said it better!

[@lukebieniek9069]

Cool story🥳🔔🌪️

[@dogscratchedoor]

One of the best Beatles songs imo

[@rogerjane1350]

Paul is AMAZING‼️💪💪

[@glennwallace9203]

He was in Jamaica and dinner with Dustin Hoffman who said he didn't believe Paul could write a song about anything, and they pulled out a magazine which had an article about Picasso's death and last words, and Paul sat there with a guitar and wrote "Picasso's Last Words" (from Band on the Run) right in front of him. Dustin Hoffman was blown away and said to his wife "look he's doing it right in front of us!"

[@mishka110]

Paul McCartney had an absolute gift for song writing, not only the tune but simple lyrics that resonate. He was wired from a young age to be someone with a special talent.

I agree with you. I always thought Peter and Gordon were going far. I go to pieces was my favorite. I met Gordon at a Beatles convention in Chicago, I can't remember what year tho

[@BassicVIC]

It goes to show how immensely talented Paul is. Even a little song, quickly written is enough to propel other people’s careers to number 1 when they couldn’t do it themselves! Mind blowing.

I always wished he would have kept writing more rocking numbers instead of the polkas and oompah tunes he ended up mostly writing.

[@cybernightzero5891]

I've always loved this song, and finding out McCartney wrote it made the story almost legendary. The fact it was a hit goes to show that not all music critics are right.

We could tell it was a McCartney song. That Peter was his girlfriends brother was a give away. Then, later, we found it indeed was. My brother was a big fan of credits. He knew every song writer, movie director and so forth

It was a little less than a month to my 12th bday on Feb 9th, 1964 . By April '65 my brother, an old friend and a new friend were playing our first gig at the 'YMCA' where we recruited another new friend with a Wurlitzer elec. piano. Called out band the Barons. Cheezy name , huh ?

[@tamdsms]

@@deandavidson1375, "The Barons" would have been a great name in the '60s: today "The Barrens" might be more relevant with climate change & all the other environmental damage. I was 1-2mos. shy of 15 in1967 when I picked up a guitar. My 1st song was "A Lighter Shade of Pale" by "Procol Harum", because EVERYBODY else was learning or played "E.B. & the Animals" "House of The Rising Sun" & I was sick-to-death of hearing it, much less learning it, & liked Procol Harum a whole lot better🤣😂🥲😏!

TOLLIE started the label with a huge hit, the 45 of the Beatles' "Twist And Shout"/"There's A Place" It was taken from the Vee-Jay Beatles album, which was part of Capitol Records.

I really enjoyed that "World without Love" video. Like so many boomers born in the 1950s, the Beatles, their music and everything they came to represent have had a big influence on my life. I'm an itinerant musician and language teacher (FunSongs) and have just released an album entitled the Music of Travel. One of the tracks "Eaton Reverie" was written not far from where McCartney lived with the Asher family in Belgravia, London.

Yet again, the Trooper knocks it out of the park (baseball, yes? I'm British so my exuberances would be cricket-related and make no sense!). You've got this whole spinning the narrative out thing up to mastery lever, Sir Trooper. Six minutes on the edge of my seat this time ... the mounting tension and building excitement ... and it turns out to be a song we all know but about which we have hitherto known next to nothing! Actually, thinking about it, maybe "knocked it for six" would be an understatement anyway. I'll keep the baseball reference. ;) Thank you, Trooper.

[@the_guitar_trooper]

Hey David! Thanks for the great comment and kind words!! And - I might know more British slang than you think.

I still remember, as a hormone driven shallow teenage high school junior, watching the Beatles on Ed Sullivan. I loved the music, it was both new and different but was shocked and puzzled by the drooling swooning teeny bopper girls screaming. I distinctly remember combing my hair down as I watched them {swayable teen that was me}. This bit of music history just shows to go you that talent is a gift at any age and craft, with drive, will out.

[@the_guitar_trooper]

All I remember was my sister yelling at the TV “WOULD YOU PEOPLE SHUTUP??!! I CAN’T HEAR WHAT THEY ARE PLAYING!!”

[@patricklemmon8260]

For far to long, they and their unflagging lung power were unstoppable. Sullivan was always saying "stop now, you promised!"

[@stevenbaggett6549]

Vic flick was a renowned session guitarist in England. Play the James Bond theme and many others. He was on Pawn Stars and sold that guitar. He had a list that showed what songs he used it on. I believe that he got 50k for it

[@stevenbaggett6549]

I had stop to make the James Bond reference before the narrator mentioned it😊

[@the_guitar_trooper]

HA! Thanks for watching!!

It was his Strat, not the one he used with Peter &Gordon.

McCartney's demo of "World Without Love" shows a different feel to the song. Once the song was in the hands of Peter & Gordon and their producer it was a vast improvement to the song. Definitely not a song for the Beatles. Lennon and Harrison thought the line "Please lock me away" was a joke. Imagine their amazement when the song became a number one song in many countries.

[@Bella-nt7ec]

No, when Paul performs a song it has a completely different feel to it, outworldly

[@the_guitar_trooper]

It’s a wild business alright.

[@joseenriqueagutaya131]

Im not surprise the Beatles did not record this song even though im sure its John Lennon who dislike becàuse Paul wrote it not him.

[@the_guitar_trooper]

I’m not sure about that one. Both of them helped to record other songs that they personally didn’t like, written by the other guy.

[@richard999]

Like many I am now in my late 70’s and love the fact that the songs we all loved and the eclectic set of singers and groups that era spawned are still very much alive and appreciated today. Keep up the good work 👍

[@romecottrell6444]

Wow ! I do think that the Beatles should have produced both A World Without Love and Woman. This is 2 songs 🎵 that goes well with them 👌.

[@the_guitar_trooper]

I dunno what to think. Both Macaa and Lennon were cranking out so many songs that could afford to flip several to other performers and never miss them.

[@Jan-sn5tk]

In 1964 my parents bought me a Bush transistor radio for my first teenage birthday. It was blue and in a tan colour faux leather case with a long strap. It went everywhere with me and was the envy of my friends. We would sit in the park and listen to the weeks top 20. I well remember Peter and Gordon and this song. Happy days.

[@the_guitar_trooper]

[@Acein3055]

I used to hear A World Without Love on the AM dial when it first came out but I never heard of the song Woman. I looked for it on KZbin and I played it for about 15 seconds. It's lacking. Now I know why I never heard of it. I probably changed the station when it came on.
