This rare footage shows him recording these classic tracks.
On a summer morning in May 1971 a homeless man arrived at the gates of John Lennon’s Ascot home while the Beatle was recording his 2nd solo album Imagine.
This is the story about one man’s quest for meaning, his love of The Beatles what prompted him to visit Tittenhurst Park moment and where it would lead him.
His name was Curtis Claudio, this is his story…

Paul McCartney with Francie Schwartz on June 11th 1968 running through 2 acoustic songs for The White Album.
And nine days later he’s ringing up Linda in New York.
Jane Asher caught Paul in bed with Francie when Jane was dating Paul.
Wasn’t she the one Jane Asher found in bed with him that ended his (already rocky) relationship with Jane?
Yes!@@ellenh9381

The best of the best! “I’m in awe of Paul McCartney,” Dylan told Rolling Stone in 2007. “He’s about the only one that I am in awe of. But I’m in awe of him. He can do it all and he’s never let up, you know. He’s got the gift for melody, he’s got the rhythm. He can play any instrument. He can scream and shout as good as anybody and he can sing the ballad as good as anybody, you know so … And his melodies are, you know, effortless. That’s what you have to be in awe … I’m in awe of him maybe just because he’s just so damn effortless.”
So I guess Bob' was telling us he was in 'awe'?
They ALL fear the power of William

Good name for a McCartney song…awe
I've been lucky to see live in Concert a few times & and he is just absolutely amazing. ❤
Mother Nature's Son is a beautiful and underrated McCartney song.
I like it much more than Blackbird
Campbell*
I remember another Mother Natures Son, John Denver made a version of the song.
Some of his v best work I think, timeless👍
my favorite beatles song
That look on Francie’s face is just priceless. She had a front row seat on a creation that may well last for ever.
When Paul was just a creative force of nature here. This is arguably his best time musically - an output that might never be rivalled in popular music.
90% of paul’s work on the white album, let it be, and abbey road was written in ‘68. so i couldn’t agree with you more.
@@ArmanBaig Probably has something to do with his relationship with Francie Schwartz !
Donovan actually wrote these two songs. The Beatles were a manufactured band.
It's more likely Donovan copied them from Paul@@coolnamebro
@@coolnamebro😂😂😂
The genius of McCartney was he could create a beautiful melody and make it seem effortless.
So could lots of other musicians
@@carltroia6235 But none so often and with such brilliance
And do a bunch of other musical things.
And his voice on top of it. All 3 had unique voices but Paul has the most pleasant imo.
Whenever I am feeling down I turn to The Beatles. How many lives they have saved will never be known, be assured it’s many.
Find someone who looks at you the way Francie looks at Paul here
That look is two sided. Yes, she’s taken in, but she’s also trying to bait Paul.
Indeed..there's ❤in her eyes.. beautifully captured moments.
Nah she was in for the fame, jane on the other hand, you can see the love in her eyes
Like a meal ticket?😂😂
It’s like watching Mozart composing. Incredible footage.
😂😂😂😂😂
Writing masterpieces with such nonchalance. Like he's chewing gum... Oh, Paul !!! 🤩
Two of the best songs ever made in one session, absolutely insane
THIS is what a creative genius looks like.
This is what an excellent replica looks like. You go billy.
Here in America, the Beatles changed music, fashion and culture in six short years. It’s truly amazing.
Mccartney '68/'69 is as cool as it gets ....he was at the peak of his powers his voice was perfection he could sing any genre at will
I agree at his finest vocally, like you say 68 and 69 👌
@@Colt-ii4qn Now sounds like an old, Beatles, wannabe at the local pub. Vocal chords totally wrecked.
His voice is incredible in this.
@@trevorsmith7753 he dosent even sound like the same guy anymore ,yet someone like Justin Hayward live and a similar age still sounds like the old moody blues recordings
McCartneys voice hasn’t held up well ,I don’t like much of his stuff after about 1974 he just didn’t sound the same towards the end of wings and his solo career as he did with the Beatles and his first solo albums
I'll be seeing Paul in about 2 weeks' time - it's hard to comprehend that I will finally actually be in the same space as the beautiful young genius in this clip. Apart from my family, I don't think there is a person on earth who means more to me or who has fed my soul the way he has.
My girfriend had never seen him before and when he came out on stage she began weeping. The lady to her right looked over and said....."Awww - it must be your first time.!" I had almost the same reaction when I met him working on the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Inductions in Cleveland when Paul was on the show to induct Ringo as a solo artist. I'm never starstruck since I work on lots of Live TV events and Awards Shows - but meeting Paul was one time where I almost lost my mind. The complexion of the atmosphere changes in a room when he walks into it. It's very powerful and captivating. And of course he was a gracious as could be and acted like a little kid in a playground - all bouncy, jubilant and full of life and excitement. He truly loves being who he is and I don't mean that in a snobby or conceited way. He just loves making music and thank god for that. His joy has changed the world and has changed me and made me a musician. Enjoy it all and soak it in. Not sure how much more touring he'll be doing.
This is something I think to myself all the time. What a beautiful way to put it. Apart from my mother and father, I don’t think anybody in this world has had as much of an influence on my emotional development. And to think that he has had that effect on millions of people, but still, what an honor it would be to share the same space as him, even for one single event. I saw him about 5 years ago, and that’s how I felt. Hope you have a wonderful time!
I was lucky enough to attent to three shows of this pure genius!!!
Love the way you put that "fed my soul the way he has' - that's EXACTLY how I feel. Inexplicably, the fact that McCartney exists at all raises the bar for humanity's potential.
Thanks Paul!! Do it again!!
The more time passes, the more moving it becomes to see such footages.
The white album at Christmas 68, I was sixteen. Heartbreaking.
Why heartbreaking... Joyfully reminiscent more likely... For me at least who was also 16 at that time... The memories are precious...
Cape Town - South Africa... So much going on politically... Peter Raggett at UCT and his brothers John and Mick and sister-in-law, Lynn always being a hoot - laughter abounded in full measure....
The White Album was my favourite... These two songs in particular...
The Beatles are the gift that keeps on giving.
Magical brilliant beautiful Paul McCartney
This is extraordinary footage.
Listening to McCartney tune his guitar is more musical than most songs! Love the BTS snippet!
Francie is mesmerised here.
Thank you for posting this video. Never seen it before. One cannot overestimate the importance of this young man and of his three Beatles mates in the lives of those who were young then and who loved them. The Beatles were so much more than a band but their music and their personalities shaped a whole generation. A gift from God, once said Tom Petty. I am grateful they were there when I was a teenager searching for truth and meaning.
It is stolen from my channel, no credits whatsoever!
Someone said: "The Beatles were not a band, they were a miracle!"
All said!...
@@JS_1968_And where did you steal it from? This isn't your footage.
I’m so jealous I wasn’t alive! Fortunately, I grew up in a Beatles-loving family 💙
I'm 70 and Paul is 80. I lived those times and the Beatles were part of the soundtrack
It's intresting to see him create songs..he was definitely at a peak during this time period...such a genius !
This young girl met a historical milestone in the making and probably didn’t realize the magnitude of it
Perhaps you should google the name 'Francie Schwartz' and read more about her (and her close relationship to the Beatles)
Paul called her Frannie. We were friends for a time in the early Nineties. I was living in the Bay Area and she was in Cambria. She invited me to visit but I never made it over there. She had a nice run during the White Album time, fit snugly between Maggie and Linda. She was funny and witty and talked about the atmosphere of pure creativity in those times.
Was watching a Macca concert on the BBC last week, he didn't even play _Blackbird_ (or _Yesterday_ ) . Imagine having songs like that and not feeling you have to do them at every concert! Nobody else has that strength in depth of songwriting - nobody.
You haven't heard Boy georges catalog then.
@@SwizzenatorHahaha, spare us all.
@@Swizzenator😅
Stevie Wonder has.
Sadly he can’t really sing those anymore. He has failed to protect his vocal chords over the last 35 years and it shows.
Such a natural musician....the way he easily picks with the strumming hand...
Right handed guitar too
Well now we know who Paul was talking with in the White Album outtake of Blackbird
Between his right heel and his left toe taps, he’s a reliable metronome. It sounds effortlessly flawless throughout.
Glad to see I'm not the only one who has tuning problems.
Right
And you are even better then them
@@drubbus You're an angry little weasel lol
I find it so beautiful to watch and experience the feeling of people in their creative element and living their soul's purpose. ❤❤
This is so lovely. 🌻🪻🌷🌼⚘️
One thing that was so special about Paul and the Beatles is they could come in with a very ruff and unfinished sounding part or song. but they always seemed to know where they wanted to end up with the song. they understood what was working and what wasn't working. and what was there but also what was missing. and in the end they always got the song to where it ended up polished and great. I have always believed that the difference between great writers and good or so so writers is having a vision of the level you expect the song to be at. and knowing when it has not reached that level yet. and knowing what is missing in order to bring the song to the next level. even if its just a guitar and vocals song like Black Bird. Paul just kept fine tuning it until it became a masterpiece. and a average writer gets a song to be pretty good. and they are happy with pretty good. because they can't really see what is missing from it to make it great. or what could be done at all to bring it to being very good instead of pretty good. but Paul in his prime was like a conduit where ideas were just flowing and his genius was just coming out of him at such a high level.
Intuitive visionaries, perhaps? They sure had an amazing process - even Paul said years later that their writing sessions ALWAYS produced something useful.
yeah great writters don't stay with the 1st option unless it's great... they keep looking and looking, and some times, the song has a hidden gold, and some times not.
@@carlostejada1479 Very true - and beautifully put. One of my favourite experiences is when you put a little extra onto something and it makes ALL the difference and you begin to get the sense of how good something might be if you continue to shape and develop it. Ah, for just the faintest sniff of GREAT potential - when you know you're on the end of making a song that's better than all of your others.
Considering his genius, Paul’s XM Beatles channel jingle is a bit disappointing.
@@richmackey8810 It is a hallmark of even confirmed geniuses (whatever that really means!) that even they can can an off day - or to put that a little differently they can have a bad moment in terms of not recognising when work they have done is not up to par. Songwriters who have been around a LONG time and produced a large body of work generally reveal this truth a in assessing their work we have to take the good with the bad - or just less good. Many critics have done this over the years with writers like Dylan, and the Beatles but it is also evident in the work of Neil Young, Paul Simon, Joni M, as well as Leonard Cohen, Gordon Lightfoot, Bruce Springsteen John Mellencamp and Bruce Cockburn - who I consider to be all excellent songwriters. Nutshell: almost every album has one or two filler tracks which is symptomatic to eh processes used to create them.
Truly outstanding writing typically requires time and inspiration - and it's not that often both commodities are available at the same time.
That voice is just incredible.
I’ve looked for years of Beatles and The Rolling Stone’s in studio Writing/creating/jamming. This by far is one of the coolest things I have ever seen
Stones, you pillock.
Grab your own pillock and give it a good nasty tug, ye right bastard@@Misteryowl
You've seen the "Get Back" documentary, right? It's 7+ hours of them in the studio.
We need more footage of making the white album…like let it be!
Rare is right..never saw this.. this video is a GEM. This 3 minutes means more to me than the entire catalog of GenZ 'artists"
Ok, I cried through this whole damn thing 😩🤩🫶🏽
Uma das canções mais lindas dos Beatles. Paul McCartney é um compositor, cantor e músico excepcional.
This is the beat way I like to remember the Beatles the best when they were young, I was 5 years old when my oldest brother got The WHITE ALBUM for Xmas 1968, I remember opening up or toys then my brother found the album last behind the tree, my two older brothers ran in the bed room to listen to it and made sure they locked the door so I could not get in, no problem I just sat outside the door and rocked back and forth to all the new great songs on the album, got it was the best time to be alive- 5 years old and already a Beatles freak- little did I know that just in a year another band would come into my life as one of my brothers would bring home a new band and new album- up until then only Beatles albums we had , many single of other bands but NO albums until Stand Up. by Jethro Tull came into our lives, The Beatles and Tull still my favorite of all the bands I love. and I love many
Stand up is a stellar album. A Reason for Waiting is my favorite song on that.🎶🏆
Great footage never seen this before.
Thanks for posting this! I have never seen it before. It is amazing to me how well the Beatles LIVED with their songs, allowing themselves time to polish and refine them. He is actually using this girl as a muse and as an audience, and Lennon and Martin as well. They followed John’s idea to put in a brass section for the song- a brilliant idea, just right- although it is not something I would have thought of.
It is hard to describe how much and why I love those guys so much. I think I know them. I think that they are my brothers, my older brothers, but obviously they are not. They just opened so much music and joy. For me. when I was just a kid. But it was art that came straight from the heart and soul. As a young person I got to experience incredibly meaningful art, and the joy that comes from music at such a high level. I was only a kid, but no other artists. could approach what they did. Like these guys are in my heart, and in my bones in my skin. That’s a poetic way of saying that they are foundational to my personality. I needed something to start building myself in there they were providing me with emotions and rhythms : lots of sharing and caring. Even though I don’t really know who they are at all, I still am very grateful for the gift that they gave me. Thanks, lads!
Yes, they are in my skin, in my bones, my brain and my heart, deeply. And have been for over 50 years! ❤❤
This is the perfect traduction. I just lived the same as a kid. They saved and gave me the direction of my life, the reason why and what I wanted to live, wanted to be.
They are my Family.
When everything is bad, you listen to The Beatles and they bring you back to a beautiful place where you find peace and joy.
And when everything is good and you are happy, they are there too, to accompany you and celebrate that moment with you.
Essentially, they are everything.
Хорошо сказано..
Они дали всему миру столько любви и добра ,что переоценить это не возможно..Они объединили нас во всем мире.. простых людей, через своё искусство..всех и англичан ,русских ,испанцев,французов.и многих других..показали ,какие мы все одинаковые..так же любим,также переживаем...Мы очень любили их в далеком СССР,они изменили нашу жизнь!.. И к нам пришло удивительное осознание того,как мы все близки друг другу.
И чем дальше уходит время,все сильнее понимание масштаба ,не зря говорят ,все великое видится на рассстоянии!( И не зря Джордж Мартин считал Пола Маккартни и Джона Леннона,величайшими композиторами и музыкантами 20 века!)
Что то щемящее и грустное остаётся в Сердце от неумолимого течения времени..где нет уже с нами не Джорджа ,ни Джона.. их задорной молодости простоты скромности!. с удовольствием смотришь редчайшие записи и заново открываешь их для себя!!И хочется пожелать Полу и Ринго долгих лет Жизни!!
Привет! спасибо за ваши мысли! Да, миру повезло, что «Битлз» каким-то особенным образом объединили нас! Да благословит тебя Бог, друг!@@alexnikitsky3928
Utterly beautiful.
This is incredible
So Yoko wasn't the only woman who sat in the studio with the boys.
Best sense of melody that I've ever seen.
Two beautiful songs, Ive always loved Mother Nature's Son and Black bird is such an intense song so much talent. I wish I could have been Franice Schwartz there in that studio with this genius.
McCartney was such an incredible melodic master. He's wrote so many classic songs it's breathtaking. I love the Beatles and Lennon is my favourite songwriter. His songs on Rubber Soul, Revolver, Rain, Strawberry Field's Forever, his incredible melody and verses for A Day In The Life are beautifully sad, and when Paul got involved with what John had brought in it became a masterpiece. The greatest track ever imo.
I Am The Walrus is another mighty Lennon classic.
I love all the Beatles and the solo work that John, Paul and George created. Also, Ringo's classic 1973 self titled album and Goodnight Vienna. Love how each Beatle helped Ringo for those albums and especially the Ringo album which is a great listen and it makes me feel better. It's like a semi Beatles album with Ringo singing vocals. 😊✌️🙏
Some really great footage here of Paul McCartney tuning his guitar 😅
I play acoustic guitar, but you wouldn’t believe how hard a song it is to play as mother nature son McCartney far away was the best instrumental in the Beatles
Intel on how to play Blackbird 👍🎸 SUPER cool clip
Thank you for this, what a wonderful man Paul is.
Fantastic ! ❤
This video gives Little Tears in my eyes 😢
How could Francie just sit there and not lose her composure. I know this will sound bizarre and maybe even a little inappropriate, especially coming from a man, but if I were a woman sitting there I'm not sure I'd know what to do with myself. Holy crap. One of the most creative and desirable men on the planet at that time......she's comporting herself very nicely. I wonder if she's still with us these days and wonder what she thinks looking at this.
But I must admit, although I have other preferences on subject matter, Paul has a special place in my little world of music for his style, and what a beautiful voice, harmonies, and composition.
The late 60s was the height of human artistic achievement. Certainly musically. Renaissance shmenaissance.
Yes nothing will touch the late 60s, nothing. Musically nothing even comes close.
What a voice
McCartney had one of the best voices in the industry 👏👏👏👏👏
Macca is in the groove!
I love seeing these clips that showcase the creative process ... works in progress.
You notice on Blackbird, in these early stages he holds the "fly" and "see" at the end of the lines, but in the final version they were actually not held, but sung with a somewhat abrupt stop. Wonder how made that suggestion. Great footage.
How could I discover this only now !!??
McCartney a creative genius (in every since of the word),,,,
Genius, absolute genius.
paul breaks my heart
wonderful ti see it in it's raw state of creating a song by Paul, great upload ,,,,,,,,,greetings Renee
Thanks Renee!
Paul restera pour moi le meilleur mélodiste. Encore aujourd'hui je possède tous ses albums avec Wings et en solo mais un seul de John "imagine".
Paul é talentosíssimo, tem a voz mais bonita dos Beatles e suas músicas são mais comerciais, atingindo um público maior. John também é hiper talentoso, mas é o mais artista dos quatro. Tomorrow never knows, I am the walrus, A day in the life, Instant karma são obras de um gênio absoluto.
Double fantasy est très bien aussi.
I could relate to Paul so much when the guitar strings doesn't feel so off in the first few frets but when he plays G in the A string, it then feels sharp when compared to open G string.
Blows my mind!
The patience and practice required to craft a Beatles song was just amazing.
Wow, the most mysterious of the Beatles' girlfrends. Seems like every photo out there of her with them she isn't facing the camera. She was a babe.
He treated her terribly though. You should try to find a copy of her book “Body Count.” When he finally asked her when she was going to go home (to NYC) sometime in Aug. 1968, she started crying and he said “Don’t cry, I’m a c*nt.” She was the one Jane Asher discovered in their bedroom with him (arriving home early from an acting gig) and promptly left him.
@njriley55 Oh, I know. I've read it on Internet Archive. A physical copy will set you back a grand. I was just saying she looked hot.
@@EmeraldWoodArchives 😂 Yeah, I read it off Internet archive too. Don’t have the actual book, which, as you say would cost big $$$$!
Who the hell is she?
@@njriley55 She was obviously more than star struck and likely very clingy...a definite no no, especially for one of the most famous musicians in the world.
Profound simplicity
Thank u for posting this
Amazing! Super thanks!
Esse vídeo é simplesmente incrível! Mostra a genialidade de Sir Paul MacCartney
Thank you very much!
Wow. Never seen Francie on film. Outsiders, wives, girlfriends, etc were never allowed into the studio so I imagine Paul was making a point after John virtually installed Yoko into their workspace.
He was STILL engaged to Jane 😮
I wasn't there, of course, but I imagine Jane Asher wasn't too keen on it all.
@@ferngrows6740 Jane was busy making a movie, and she came back home sooner than expected, finding Paul and Schwartz in the same bed. That was the cause of their break up, when actually they were supposed to get married soon 😶
@@lilianamichelotti238 As well as having met up with Linda Eastman in NYC the previous month and then finally consummating their relationship in L.A. a mere 12 days after this was filmed. And then flying back to London to Francie for, I'm guessing, the remainder of summer (which would see Jane leaving him for good in July) before summoning Linda to fly to London that September. All the while sporadically seeing his secret 'friend', Maggie McGivern. Talk about some serious juggling..
Wow everyone knows everything and even make up scenarios ..ha ha you people are nuts 🤣
Thanks very much for this. Brilliance in the making...
Brilliant thank you 😊
That girl is definitely head over heels.
Great video! And i have a new appreciation for my Snark clip on tuner. I remember the before times of pitch pipes etc
So rare its on youtube
That was nice. 10 minutes of Paul McCartney tuning his guitar.
My favourite Beatle/McCartney composition, besides Sun King.
Love love love "Sun King."
sun king is great what
Sun king is Lennon
If only to see him again in concert in Washington DC 🙏🏼✝️💟
IMMEASURABLE ❤❤❤
Paul McCartney’s love life went through some real changes over the space of under a year. In March 68, he he was engaged to, Jane Asher. then his dalliance with Francie and in March 1969 he tied the knot with Linda
@@topazthecat8704 whatever most peoples mind the Paul McCartney isn’t engaged to jane any more back to my first point
You mean Billy, he took full advantage of his oppurtunity and "Baby You're a Rich Man"
@@user-fu2mi1nd5lyour continual billy comments are tiresome, grow up
this footage is incredible! how have I never seen this? x
Francie!!! I used to chat with her on the old Beatles Usenet group.
A great story from around this time. Linda was back in NY after meeting Paul. One day her answering service had a message for her from a Mr Paul McCartney, from London (in those days there was a human answering service). So Linda asks the girl: "What's the message?" -"I'm waiting for you in my Bel Air Hotel suite." -"Is that all?" -"Isn't that enough...?"
😂
I read that Linda had been a groupie for Jefferson Airplane at least once.
And she supposedly shtuped Jim Morrison of The Doors after shooting them. With a camera, I mean. That would be necrophilia, otherwise.@@leperelamisere1368
@@FlipDahlenburg LOL. Anyway, it was the time of free love, so ... 🤪
Great video. Also, if I'm not mistaken, it was his affair with Francie Schwartz that was the final nail in the coffin for his relationship with Jane
Correct, and remember Paul had met Linda the previous year in New York, and she was at the 1967 Sgt Peppers launch party at Brian's place!
legendary
❤❤❤❤
Paul had four women on the go at this time and his break up with Jane seemed deliberate to me. 1968 was a tough year for him as he could see the band he loved more than anything, start to fall apart and the Apple fiasco wasn't helping either. Read Francie's book and you'll see he was really struggling with everthing except music.
Agree
Your right, it isnt really, but my ear is developed to the point where if its off by a fraction of next to nothing my stomach starts turning.
Great, Paul!!! 💪
Why have we had to wait 55 years to see this? Superb stuff, nice to see Pauls mistress Francie tripping beside him...all good.
Peter Jackson said that he has seen 7 hours of White Album studio footage, we can only hope he'll persuade the Fabs to polish it up and release it!
Yep, she certainly does look well on the way.
@@whathappenedtoclaudioDefinitely need that, give it the same treatment he did with Get Back.
Hope he does it before I die.

Without denied the tallent of Abbey roads sound ingeniors, it clearly appears theirs melodies had to be played live.
“Icon” : def. synonym for Paul McCartney.
Muito bom ouvir e ver essa raridade.
Watching this one can imagine how Beethoven must have looked playing at the keyboard and a sonata emerging that half the world is familiar with 200 years later. Likewise the Beatles will will be remembered.❤
