The Beatles Interviews John Lennon 1969 Paul Mccartney 1970

[@thesilvershining]

33:53 THANK YOU JOHN! Jesus, I wish people would realize that as beloved as The Beatles were, all good things must come to an end, they grew up and wanted to do their own thing and they already gave SO MUCH to the world, they didn’t owe us anymore of their lives!!!

[@railwaystationmaster]

So privileged to have been alive during these 4 guys creative zenith , the songs interviews then and now showcase genius , a rare commodity these days .

[@EricMcDowellegm]

That musical interlude of "Yesterday" played by a string section is achingly beautiful!

[@KitemanofShoreham]

Thanks for the comment

[@rebeccaanderson9917]

He laid it out for all to see. ❤

[@zachhiggins1668]

I love Yoko's little "fr fr" chuckles at smart things John says

[@cuddlybear4108]

Thanks for this.

[@spockboy]

Thanks for posting! : )

2:55 the conceptual origin of "Imagine"

[@CartersRemasters]

It’s kind of John to highlight Beatle-wives, he even highlights his ex wife

[@strathman7501]

"I just warn any kids coming into the business, don't sign anything, unless the lawyer's your brother - keep it in the family.," said John. How ironic, considering John's own recent signing of Klein and his rejection of Paul's in-laws.

[@pickering9200]

sort of proves the point.

[@jk4675]

What do the Eastmans, in anyway, have to do with John, George and Ringo?

[@strathman7501]

@@jk4675 Precisely. John Lennon 1974, after having got shot of Klein: "Well, let's just say that maybe Paul was right." If they'd gone with the Eastmans and kept it in the Beatles "family" (don't be too literal-minded here, families are more than blood and genetics) maybe a lot of things could have been different.

[@signe2023]

​@@jk4675Paul's father-in-law was a lawyer, Paul wanted him to take acer from Alan Kllrin who had defrauded them, But the band didn't want to, They got deeper into financial problems, Later regretted not taking Paul's advice, Due to the financial issues at Apple, The Beatles band had to be dissolved. The strings were cut. It was all very complicated.

[@drummer78]

One must remember though, Paul gladly signed the increased royalty rate and favorable distribution arrangement that Klein secured for The Beatles in September of 1969.

[@ManicMovesDrowsyDreams]

Good interviews. Is the pitch shifted down a little at least on John's?

[@KitemanofShoreham]

No it not been adjusted at all. It’s possible the tape stretched a fraction as it’s so old

[@ManicMovesDrowsyDreams]

@@KitemanofShoreham thanks I think it's just me because I've been listen to do many 60's Beatles interviews and John's voice just got deeper

[@rickfeliciano3540]

Rrrrtrtrtr=rrf=rrtrrrrrrt

[@spockboy]

@@ManicMovesDrowsyDreams With respect I think your original notion of the tape being stretched/old is the answer, Here is an interview with John and Yoko 11 years after this one and his voice is actually higher. I also pitched this one up to see for myself and age/stretching is definitely the answer. Thanks so much for posting these by the way. : )

[@spockboy]

It is definitely lower due to tape stretch perhaps. Even Yoko's voice is on a lower register. I have downloaded it and pitched it up a bit and it sounds right. Still wonderful to have these interviews posted!

[@thehunter3387]

hey, john's interview is not 1969. it's October 1971, he says that paul has a new band, meaning Wings

[@drummer78]

There actually two separate interviews. The first one was done in early 1970 as he is referencing Michael X and the Hanratty case. Also he is mentioning the Beatles in the present tense and he is also discussing his recent trip to Denmark where he visited with Yoko in early 1970 to meet with Tony Cox (Yoko’s ex). Lennon’s concerns in this interview are his peace campaign and “.growing his hair for peace”. This interview concludes around 24:25 minute mark. The next Lennon interview is 1971 era.

[@UAL320]

32:24 was he going to say Jane Asher?

[@CartersRemasters]

Obviously

[@tyronewhitehead3123]

Getting out of one car and getting into another If only John foreseen that night. It’s. Eerie thinking about it a honest. Interview from John and. Yoko and Paul thanque

[@eddancros]

Heroin is cool.

[@MrCrispian]

amazing ..........how did you get these?

[@KitemanofShoreham]

These are recordings I made as a kid. I decided to transfer everything to digital and have put all my Beatles and Hendrix stuff up for auction.

[@darrenjray]

These are the David Wigg interviews. They were released on LP in the mid-‘70s. You can still be lucky and find the double LP (a Beatle each side) in second hand record shops.

[@KitemanofShoreham]

@@darrenjray thanks for the info. I’ve had a lot of feedback from my Beatles stuff

[@JunkerOnDrums]

Strange than Lennon mention Martin Luther King , Kennedy: "They all got shot" - unknowing it will be he's own destiny about 20 years later.

[@MrCrispian]

by the same people..the CIA

[@jensontagg]

11 years later

[@SamSam-rs8mo]

It was 11 years later youre talking out of your dumb ass

[@johncrowder5505]

Not Lennon

[@danieljamesmead]

Play at 1.25 speed

[@strathman7501]

That doesn't alter the pitch, though.

[@danieljamesmead]

@@strathman7501 Stick your phone in a glass of water

[@strathman7501]

@@danieljamesmead Strange response. The questions here are about shifting pitch. Changing the youtube playback from normal to 1.25 will alter the speed but preserve the pitch. Not hard for you to verify. BTW I don't use a phone, but thanks for the advice.

[@danieljamesmead]

@@strathman7501 neither of my comments were particularly serious mate x

Stay in bed for a week and people would notice the change (paraphrase) - he'd find the pandemic lock down interesting

[@nestorraphaelvalenciano7990]

If you give the guys money then theyll never work....(at this time George was penniless!)...and I thought Badfinger was a solo case of being ripped off... The Beatles splitting was the answer for the overground.

[@brianholmes3547]

He had the biggest ego and was a hypocrite. He talked about no possessions but they built up more possessions than most people can dream of. When he left McCartney and the Beatles it was a long ego trip for them both. Without McCartney he would not have risen to the heights he did.

[@69birdboy]

Yeah ok Mr Chapman. Everyone had hypocritical views. He wasn't a saint

[@69birdboy]

He was the engine room if the Beatles til 66...virtually all the early to mid work of the Beatles that's great us Lennon's

[@hotrod12106]

he just said just imagine no possessions ... nothing else

[@jk4675]

you are not a god or a saint either. be thankful you can talk about someone like Lennon 40 odd years after he's dead. who will be talking about you ?

[@johncrowder5505]

Sure sounds like a Ringo imposter….only 1 min in & could not go on. Sorry

[@gregorio87]

It's definitely Lennon... I think heroin or methadone was a big factor for the deep/slowed voice

[@johncrowder5505]

Nah. Been on dope, doesn’t do that.

[@JohnSmith-ij6ms]

awful interludes

[@davidturner3386]

It doesn't sound nothing like John Lennon

[@KitemanofShoreham]

I’ve speeded it up now so should sound better
