      I always think of Paul when I think of Dave Grohl. I don't know if another artist who writes & played every instrument on the 23 minute song "Play* and the Album "Pocket Watch". The only other artist I can think of who can do that is Prince, although I have no doubt there's others, it's still impressive as hell, music in their veins!!

    If there is one song that embodies the genius of Paul McCartney, it is this one. Why? Everything we hear here comes from the brain, hands (and feet) of a single musician. In 1970, there were not many musicians who could do that.

    My husband and I got to see Paul and Linda in Wings at a famous place in San Francisco called The Cow Palace. Wonderful concert and light show in late 1970s. There was a great "Drive in theater next door and next to that a beautiful bowling alley. Great memories, and lucky to see Paul. Though he played a lot up in a mountain town by me called Truckee, he would just show up at a restaurant and just play for a bit.

And just like my real distant uncles, I appreciate that they’re here. They’ve got a few more good years left yet. And I sure will be sad when they have to leave us.

    Me and a friend were going back and forth about what was the first power ballad. I landed on "Maybe I'm Amazed". We based our discussion on the definition of a power ballad being a slow song that starts acousticly (guitar or piano) and has a ripping hard rock guitar solo.

    Okay…you are getting into the history of the Beatles, which if you are a fan, you MUST, MUST DO NOW. The BEST way to do that is to watch the BEATLES ANTHOLOGY DVD series. This was created by The Beatles, THEMSELVES. They put this series together because so many people were writing Beatles history and getting it wrong. They felt they needed to do it to set the record straight. It is narrated by all 4 members and they spent years collecting video footage from everywhere they e er toured, every interview, every show they were on. It goes back to how each of them grew up, how they met as teenagers, how they learned to play, their influences growing up, their first gigs…. And how they started to gain an audience and how their sound just took off like a rocket ship and thrust them into amazing fame very fast! Every album was better than the last and they literally changed music and changed the entire culture at the time, from music to art to fashion. It’s an amazing story.
    I am a music teacher. I expose my students to all kinds of music, but at a certain age, they learn all about Beatles history. And I show them this series. There are 5 DVD’s in the set. Each is divided into 2 episodes, each episode is 90 minutes long. It originally came out in a 10 VHS tape set.
    It may be hard to stream. I have never seen it on any streaming platform. You probably have to buy it. However, it used to cost like $150-200. I believe Amazon had the set for $50 now. And you can probably buy a set right on the Beatles website, Beatles.com. It’s worth the investment. After you see this series, there are other great documentaries on Amazon Prime and Disney Plus:
    Eight Days a Week
    ‘64
    How the Beatles Changed the World

    He lost his mother, Mary as a young teen so I think he saw in Linda a great mother and wife figure that he had been missing for years and yearning for. In Let it Be, he sings about his mom.

    From the solo album "McCartney" released at the very end of the Beatles in Spring 1970...they were unofficially through when in September 1969 John Lennon had aanounced to the others he was quitting the band. They were told by their new manager Allen Klein [a real con artist crook] they better keep it under wraps to the public, they had too much at stake financailly with the Abbey Road album coming out, another album release of cellections of songs, singles never on an album before , and the Let It Be tapes which became their last release even though Abbey Road was really the last album they recorded chronologically. Finally April 10, 19970, McCartney had enough of the charade and while annoncing his album to the press exposed the big secret the Beatles were through.. They argued over the release dates of his new solo album and the Let It Be release, and Ringo's first solo album. Finally McCartney released his solo album, all him on vocals and instruments [wife Linda sang harmonies on a few songs] Maybe I'm Amazed was NEVER released as a single at that point, but the radio stations kept playing it as if it was. It shouldhave been a single, but...who knows why...too much disagreement within the band members and Allen the crook Klein, and McCartney....

    Almost every time someone does a reaction to a live recording, I think to myself, they're missing the sound of the studio. This song is one of the few exceptions. The live version is just a little bit slower and is missing nothing from the studio. It has a couple of small things that I feel are missing in this studio recording. Still a great song.
    I'm surprised you didn't make the connection to Shania Twain and You're Still the One.

    I like this guy's songs, but I am one of those people who believe he is not the real Paul, who I believe died in 1966. But, again, good songs, good singer, just kind of don't buy that it's Paul.
