Hi I'm Mario. Back in the day 1980's I had a copy of this interview and now I've obtained another copy of it but on CD. Paul did a great interview. ✌️n💙
I had that vinyl -LP in the 80's. I bought it from a tiny record shop, and being only 13-yrs-old, I didn't even recognize it's not a song collection. I may have sub-conciesly thought it's a good collectable.
I love the fact Paul's Liverpool accent was still pretty thick at this time. Especially when he says like "there" ther, "Hair" Her, "where" wher. George use to pronounce words like that as well.
Whoa! I assumed this was an 80’s or 90’s interview and didn’t pay too close attention to the title so, as I was listening to this I got a freaky feeling when I heard Paul say “…now, John is…”, and I suddenly realized that John was still alive at the time. But, he only had 6 months and 28 days to live. What a horrible reality. We lost so much that day, but Paul lost a huge part of his soul. What great guys.
Remember seeing this as an album in the early 80s..now it's available for everyone! He had an odd taking voice at the time, not his Beatles voice or his 80s voice, maybe the chain smoking of the 70s?
I was lucky enough to pick up a pre-owned numbered copy super deluxe of the White Album for around £40 like new, it's now hard to get and are going for around £200+. Paul mentioned Chris Montez he was the geezer who sang 'Let's Dance' a big smash hit in 1962 [?].
I agree... I've found a few interviews in which he appeared more relaxed and was great... I don't know why, through the years he seems to has become a sort of someone who has to show a sort of infallibility, someone who has to show everything is perfect all the time, even in the less important things of life...
It's strange to hear Paul speak so highly of George here ''one of the greatest guitar players who ever existed''. All we heard from Georges end was that Paul always looked down on him and never respected him as a musician. I thought when I heard Paul say that that this interview must have been after George died, but nope, it was in 1980! 6-7 months before Lennon was fatally assasinated
They loved each other so much. I love it when I can hear one of them when the other is talking in these 70s interviews. George’s phrasing will kind of appear in Paul’s speech and vice versa. Brothers.
The album contains an interview of Paul McCartney by journalist Vic Garbarini, recorded for the magazine Musician in May 1980. Thanks for the comment Robert.
This is precious, John was still alive and Paul seems very grounded and relaxed.
I bought this on vinyl back in England in 1980.
It's nice to hear one of the last interviews with Paul before John died - thanks for the upload
This is by far the best Paul interview I’ve heard. He’s so relaxed and open here. Thank you
Ram was panned. Now it’s widely considered to be the first Indy rock album. Greatness.
Indie
It was panned by critics not by public.
Apart from a couple of tracks Ram was rubbish hipster indie revisionism doesn’t mean it was a good album
@@JoeSmith-eo7rcIt’s the highest rated solo album after All Things Must Pass now. The majority of music fans don’t agree with you
Not the first indie album at all.

This is really good, thank you. The discussion of the video for 'Coming Up' is great. :D
Very interesting period for Paul. Had John not died, I wonder how where his career would go?

Not that thick. Just bits
Great interview!
I got this on vinyl in Liverpool in 2016

after that interview John was alive for 9 months and 28 days.

Paul's speaking voice had a distinct difference in 70'/80's. Maybe it's his demeanor, but he sounded 'gentler' than other periods.
John probably got an advance copy of McCartney II and listened a couple times. He was after all a Beatle w a keen interest in their works, esp Paul.

Striking, how his voice has changed.
Fascinating. This is earthy, organic Paul. No showbiz demeanor or going through the motions as he does now.

That's unkind and untrue. Can the greatest musical artist alive please dial down a bit at his age?
He's also had a bunch of BIG losses with grief. That does change a person's demeanor and ease.
True. He's very vague now, an open book here.
The permanent wave 😂🎉❤
Does anyone have any links to the 1987 interview with Julianne Baird?

Great interview from 1979? I miss these kind of interviews with Paul that don’t center on The Beatles.
The album contains an interview of Paul McCartney by journalist Vic Garbarini, recorded for the magazine Musician in May 1980. Thanks for the comment Robert.
He talks about the Beatles 90% of the time here...
This video description says that Paul McCartney's album was deleted from what?
“Does he have to have THAT much time with her ?” 😂
I bought this album. What's it worth? It's at my mother's house, 200 miles away....
If it's 1980, then it's a Billy Shepherd interview. Or as he likes to call himself, Billy Shears. It's in his memoirs.
Is it? Tell us more.
@@scottandrewbrass1931 Read it yourself. He wants you to. Or if you like You Tube , There's the Sage of Quay, so you don't have to read.
Sure
Grown up!
Keep the crazy nonsense going on in your head, if it pleases you, but don't bother others with it.
Wonder if John listened to this
Quick, Paul's coming into the party, put Venus and Mars on!! And go crazy!
