“Go figure Paul had a great idea for a melody…” what a great line. Cracked me up
What an amazing story
“I guess we’re in a band now”. Wow what a story.
Can't even imagine what it would be like to have Paul McCartney's level of fame. So famous, the most famous people are star struck in front of him. Musicians more than any one. So famous, that people stiffen up, act strange because they can't help it, say stupid things, cry, freeze, blubber nonsensical things, offer over-the-top praise, stare.... every single day he's ventured out since 1963. The hoops he must jump through to simply get people to relate to him on a more human level... must be exhausting. But, he really seems to be a happy warrior. And after all this time, has obviously gotten used to it and it's just his way of being. He's old now. Won't be with us forever. What a treasure.
I've met many Rock Stars over the years and have never really been Star Struck. I never asked for anything like photos or autographs
and the folks I met seemed comfortable with that...
I was an employee of a known Rock Star in L.A. and from that alone I met a lot of people...
To meet a Beatle I'm sure I would freeze up in a heartbeat!!! Pretty sure I would immediately become unable to speak!!
To Ringo and Paul THANK YOU!!!!!
That's phenomenal!! Thank you for sharing that with us all. What an amazing experience!
Great story JD! I bet everybody watching you tell it was smiling... Wow... what an experiance!
Fantastic storytelling. Thank you JD and Otis…and Paul.
'Level of awareness’ is what sets an understanding of anyone who you might be with; a high standing one will be remembered no matter who. Great story telling, thanks you both. ☮
Love this guy. All the interviews with him are just great. And once again I'm super-impressed with what a great listener you are, Otis.
What an amazing story. Thank you.
What a nice guy, and such a great story. Thank you lads.
Love the “ knocked their dicks in the dirt” comment. Humanizes the living legend. Love that Paul unweighted the jam session with “I guess we’re in a band now” comment. Wild. The dynamics of meeting a Rock god as another musician could be a very mixed blessing. A certain amount of ego and confidence in your ability is required.
We are all grandkids on this blessed day
What a great story! Thank you for sharing.
Amazing, I'd love Paul to play Now and Then on new tour......
Priceless!
Off-the-charts cool, Otis. JD did good!
Otis, you know the best people.
Brother Otis, thank you for these gifts!
Watching this video helps me understand my daughter’s reaction when she met Taylor Swift. She was one of 89 fans to attend the 1989 album preview in Taylor’s parents’ home outside Nashville. She got to spend three minutes one on one with her hero, and dance with her and the other fans to the album and eat cookies Taylor had baked that afternoon. She said every girl (there were just a few guys) just immediately burst into tears upon meeting her, and Taylor hugged and comforted them for half the allotted time. But his mind blown reaction helps me get it, and yeah, some people are just bigger than life no matter how kind and open they try to be. Great story!
What a wholesome story!
That is a story the grandkids will love!
Waiting for a table in San Francisco on a Sunday night in a very busy restaurant, I saw a familiar looking guy waiting to get drinks at he bar. It was Bob Weir of Grateful Dead. I said casually, I really like your music. We ended speaking for 45 min or so about everything but music. He was a real nice guy and even stole a breadstick off my table as he walked by later. Very cool. I was 20 or so nd only seen him from the pit at 50 shows growing up.
Thank you for sharing!
Great backstage behind the scenes stories. I love it! Thanks for sharing this story with JD and you!
Brilliant story. Very well told 👏🏼👏🏼
That Paul McCartney kid is going places.
Nice job with Paul - getting a great little chunk of new Beatles data!
That was a great one!
Really enjoyed how a person can effect another. Genuine respect. Great story and great interview.
David who....?
I’m not sure… maybe Ferguson?
Wonderful Story by JD Somo, Very Cool about hangin with Dave and Paul McCartney in NYC
Absolutely incredible
From what I hear, Paul is very good at putting people who haven't met him before at ease.
He's a sport
Thank you for sharing your story with us. Can not even imagine? Certainly can’t imagine what his life would be like? That is a crushing amount of fame. Burden
Love everything in this story. Peace love good rock n roll...
Thanks for sharing this! I think I could not function in his presence. I'm pretty sure I'd just start sobbing.
most awesome story, and awesome guy telling it (I've met him once). Thank you and JD for sharing it.
Really neet story!
Thank you Otis ✨️🙏
2 of my faves on RUclipss. Otis n Simo
That is really cool man. Thanks Otis😊
So happy for JD, great story.
Incredible story aside - that's a solid Paul impression 😂
Great story!
Thank you Otis
That's such a sad story in a way. Imagine being Paul and being unable to have a conversation with someone without someone else telling them what to say, what not to say, how to act, etc. It's like he's doomed to never experience spontaneity ever again.
wellll, you gotta try & put yourself in Paul's shoes & think about what he experiences on the daily. you've been at the very top of the famous, beloved celebrity list for over 60 years. EVERYBODY that you meet wants something from you & the rest are painfully obnoxious. saying the wrong thing, passing gas in public, digging a winner out of your left nostril when you think nobody's watching, etc all can end up as front page news & everybody's making a meme out of you. sounds fun doesnt it?
that man, understandably lives in a constantly guarded state of mind with walls about halfway up. if your in a situation like JD was, and your already part of the same group of friends of people he trusts, he can obviously feel at ease & not so wary. the walls will probably come down. you would undoubtedly love the cash but that level of fame has to come with a very, very heavy price. it, in fact cost John Lennon his life. and George came close to losing his the ame way.
to me, its completely understandable & acceptable.
Yes, I agree completely. That's still kinda sad though. Being famous seems to really suck.
Just so cool, great stories
Thank you 😊
wow thanks for sharing
ahh, I love it. Great story.
How cool is that? Wow!
what a swell story!!
Like no pressure, huh! What a story.
Paul is the best. It'll be a sad day when we lose him.
I fear way too many of the younger generations don’t know anything, or very little about Paul.
Great interview. Did he say if the "jam session" between him and McCartney was recorded by Kahne? That would be a great souvenir to hold on to.
Great story.
Once you work with Paul once its there forever.
❤hi Otis! Hi JD!
"Ultra awareness", "collecting data all the time", sounds more like he was probably looking at the studio gear or something. He actually refers to "storing in his mind for future use", meaning experiences, sounds, I guess, for songwriting, recording. He even has an album called "Memory almost full".
If I could ask Paul a question it would be " So as a fellow south paw and with the difficulties finding lefty's in the 60's, the Hofner was probably the first purpose built left handed you owned. what was next? The Magical Mystery Tour RIc?
Damn. Good. Story.
So, I guess I’m stupid, but who is the David he is referring to?
David Kahne
👌😎
Well I like ole Paul a lot more now. 😅
Hypervigilant. As we know, one of his best mates was shot to death.

Great story!
Great story
Hamburg is exactly what I wonder the most about as well, so THANKS for sharing that story. Awesomeness. Cheers.
It's very hard to talk about a Beatle without talking LIKE a Beatle...
Well, those were some pretty good questions that JD asked. I'm happy that he got answered and just as happy that we got to hear the answers too! Thanks Otis and JD!
Anybody have any guesses as to the person Paul was disparaging?
Amazing story. Told it so well I was feeling nervous for you
In the early 1980s, I worked for a Rock Star, who I won't name however, he told me about special project at The Record Plant.
The group was The New Barbarians and that included Ringo Starr. My employer told me he could get me in to meet Ringo!
It was all set, I would meet Ringo
on Tuesday Dec.9. 1980.....
Don't believe anyone doesn't know what happened the night before?.....
So my heart was broken so many ways. Never met Ringo but, I will never miss a chance to see Ringo and Friends... Saw him once on his last tour and he is an absolutely great Showman!!!!!!
Would love to see McCartney live but he an Ringo are probably just about at the end of their touring daze!
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR ALL THE "PEACE AND LOVE" MR. McCartney AND MR. STARR.
YOU CHANGED THE WORLD FOR THE BETTER!!!!
WE=mc2
Could it be that rather than Paul having unusually high awareness, this guy was unusually aware of Paul? Because it's Paul. I remember an ex Wings member saying that when he first met Paul, it was like seeing a hologram. Because he'd seen photos of his face from every angle, with every expression.
From 15:00 - Paul saying they had 4 great sets in Hamburg and then, back in the UK they only played for an hour so they took the best bits of each set. This is an insight I don't remember reading anywhere before and I've read so many Beatley books over the years.
No matter what level of professional one attains, occasionally you will find yourself as the kid in the background listening to the men talking. Good on ya, J.D!❤
“He mentioned Astrid and Klaus…”. No further explanation needed. How famous is Macca that we know the first names of his casual German friends from over 60 years ago?
This video randomly popped up in my youtube feed and I have to say I absolutely loved this story! Paul is such a legend and I would have felt exactly like you did in that situation.
he's right- I noticed Paul's hyper awareness when I met him...
Great story! Thank you!
Wow what a gift is right!
Otis, THANK YOU for all the years of weapons grade edu-tainment! J.D. is a treasure!
Wonderful.
Great story, Not many musicians more deserving.
