      In many ways they were opposites and that’s why the were so good together. They filled in each other’s deficits.
      Their family backgrounds were also far apart. Lennon was much more affluent but his family life was weird! He thought his mother was actually his aunt. He saw her get hit by a vehicle and and die right in front of him.
      McCartney’s family was much poorer but very close and very supportive of his musical talents. Lennon was a bit older and more of a big brother to Paul and George.
      Once they figured out they could write their own songs together they were joined at the hip! It was hard for George to eventually break through. Both John and Paul had written songs individually in the past but once they joined forces they became legendary!
      I still don’t think they were as good individually later as they were in their prime years together!

      Please note that this is just my opinion, nothing more, nothing less. Larry was the what we used to call "a company man." John called him Larry Page, but his name is Larry Kane. He was corporate Americas idea of a good worker. Someone who would have taken the pill in the Matrix that would have returned him to his regular reality. He traveled with the Beatles on their 1964 US tour. They would tease with him all the time like they are doing here, but they developed an affection for him even through he was as straight-laced as they get. John and the Beatles offered to hire him so he would not have to go into the military, but he refused. I'm pretty sure he was drafted and not a volunteer. He went in during the Vietnam War and made it out alive. He developed a soft place in his heart for the original Beatles. I think this is the original John and Paul because they may have thought after traveling with them a year, Larry may recognize if they had sent doubles. They were using doubles constantly to do public appearances after 1966, but they were still providing the vocals in the studio. That's what Paul meant when he said, "We're still singing" in the studio. The other 3 kept singing after 1966, but not sure about the original Paul. His parts seem to be sang by Bill Shepard. Larry wrote books about the Beatles. I bought one of his books about the Beatles early years. He didn't like the changes that took place beginning in 1967 and talked about how the new Paul would not even give him an interview. He didn't call him the new Paul, but it's clear what he meant. One reason he may have refused interviews is I'm sure he thought he would not be able to answer the questions since he wasn't there in the early years as Paul. Again, this is just my opinion, nothing more, nothing less.

    Why didn't anyone ever ask the Beatles interesting questions, such as "John, how the bloody hell did you write Strawberry Fields Forever? Seriously. That shit is so original it should be illegal, but it's also effortlessly accessible and pleasing to the ear, yet it makes the hairs stand up on the back of my neck by how creepy it sounds. How is that even possible to do all in one song? What are the chances that Strawberry and Penny Lane -- two of the greatest songs ever written -- would end up on the same 45? Does that make your head fucking explode when you think about it?" That's what I'd ask.

      Here's the answer he could give:
      ' ello chap. This is Winston O'Boogie from beyond the grave state of death.
      Written in Spain while filming "How I Won The War". Boredom between scenes made me think about Mimi and my father and all that. Had it in a wonky time, so I had Paul help me out a bit with that thing. The rest is mine. Wrote it, wrote the melody. Paul wrote Penny Lane after hearing my Strawberry song. I was the one that lived on Penny Lane, you see. He'd come and hang out with me when he wanted to feel hip. I gave him "Four of fish and finger pie" like I wrote "What do you see when you turn out the light? I can't tell you, but I know it's mine" for the Help Friends.
      I never liked how it came out. The orchestra was recorded for when I wanted it to be like a classical song, but dropped it. George tried speeding it up and I thought it sounded OK over the backing tracks. We most have spent more time on that song than any song we'd ever done until then. What else were we supposed to do? We were used to touring and now here we were. Back in Abbey Road. No movie to film. No tour dates.
      Along with Across The Universe it's probably the best songs that I ever wrote, you know. The released versions sound terrible, though. Nothing much I can do about it now. Just sad I never got to finish Milk & Honey. I wanted to make up with George and Paul, too.
      This is Dr. Winston O'Boogie and his Dirty Mac's saying hasta luego!

And you right, this video right there shows how john felt about Paul and how much he loved them, by this time they were working on the white album you'd think they were at each other but they weren't. They were still on good terms, of course this was prior to yoko's arrival on the scene, but you can see they loved each other. The only time john attacked Paul was when he announced the band was over. He was quoted saying he wanted to go public but Paul stopped him, and went public with it himself. It Angered him, but they made up in the 70s as you probably already know. So I'm pretty sure that Paul already knows that lol hehe. ☺️

It could have been paranoia, but I just didn’t feel good - I felt like an outsider. But then I realised that we were all feeling like outsiders, and it just needed me to go around knocking to bring it to a head.
      I got a telegram saying, ‘You’re the best rock’n’roll drummer in the world. Come on home, we love you.’ And so I came back. We all needed that little shake-up. When I got back to the studio I found George had had it decked out with flowers - there were flowers everywhere. I felt good about myself again, we’d got through that little crisis and it was great. And then the ‘White’ album really took off - we all left the studio and went to a little room so there was no separation and lots of group activity going down''

      Don't forget that by the time of this itv-this was '68, based by their looks-they had not only conquered the world but dropped a pop-musical-sonic boom by releasing Pepper, as barely mid-twenty guys, not to speak of al their other epic worldly adventures. Consider the bond that such creates.
