Poor Paul, to get thrown John's comments suddenly like that. You can see he was a bit shocked. And Linda seemed mad. He handled it beautifully though. Class.
How sad -- this is the last time Paul would speak about John in the present tense. This interview was on November 27, 1980, and Lennon was assassinated on December 8, 1980. Just eleven days after this interview and Lennon would be gone.
In that same interview John Lennon sayd that Paul "was one of the most innovative bass players ever" and "quite good lyricist" and that he admired how he had started from scratch after the Beatles playing in small dance halls but that of course does not make headlines
It was horrible that Lennon said those things read to Paul ten days before John was murdered and the interviewer cherry picked the. Most negative quotes and Paul remained classy
Was always a Lennon fan... huge one... but in hindsight I now see who the nicer person was ... Paul seemed at the time to be one enormous ego but as a composer especially of ballads... no question...(" I Will ") best Paul song... ("Blackbird") ... ("Long & Winding Road")... Lovely Linda...R.I.P. always was down to earth... her kids were fortunate to have such a mom...Paul also good hubby, dad & gentleman - never crude...
Don't worry guys. Paul knew John longer than most people. All the comments from John, Paul could handle and as we now know Paul is still going strong and always have been a well put together human being
David picked some choice quotes from Lennon from his Playboy interview, but what he didn't know was that John really liked Paul's song "Coming Up" and I think helped inspire John to get back into recording again.
I´m a big Lennon fan but, gradually, I have come to appreciate the work of Paul McCartney more and more. This interview is a bit surreal and leaves a bitter taste in the mouth due to the events of December 8, 1980. The truth is that John Lennon and Paul McCartney were a bit apart in those days, but they were still great friends. I sincerely believe that John Lennon would not have died if he had lived in England. But nobody foresaw that tragedy..
Every interviewer of the Beatles asked the DUMBEST QUESTIONS.That's why John gave the funny answers he did.He was laughing at them & they didn't even realize it!
What a horrible interview. What patience Paul has.

No matter how many covers there are of "Yesterday," McCartney's version is always the best.

Linda has beautiful eyes rest in peace Linda beautiful woman
"if we come over there can we spend a little more time with you"
Paul - (shaking his head) nooooooooooo (and he meant it)
Boy that interviewer sure made that whole thing very awkward.

I love Paul's sense of humor
Paul McCartney is the sweetest, cutest, neatest, most terrific guy on the planet. I LOVE that man!!!
Paul was so cute! He still is today

This is from 27 November 1980 only 11 days before John was killed

They were holding hands the whole time. So messed up for Hartman to say that stupid shit about lennon. Was that really necessary?
