Fragments of Klaus Voormann & Paul McCartney recording "I'm In Love Again" in Hog Hill Mill Studios, Sussex for Voormann's "A Sideman's Journey" project, released in 2009.
Klaus is a true gentleman, he never sold out The Beatles for money, dragged their names through the mud for profit. He's a rarity in these times, a true friend that has stayed loyal to his friends.
God bless You Klaus.
He's done a lot of Beatles art but it's really good and hes definitely earns the right to to do it. 😄
One night Klaus was randomly walking down a seedy alleyway in Hamburg, and heard music coming from a club. He went in, the crowd was sparse. He watched Rory Storm complete their set, and then remained to see the following band The Beatles. He was blown away, and became friends with the band. Klaus is perhaps one of the first 'insiders' and has been close to the Beatle organization since!
wasn't Klaus the guy responsible for the original Beatles haircut?
@@mightysmith1 Klaus Voorman, Astrid Kirchner, and Jurgen Vollmer all played a role and there are different stories about the genesis of the haircut, Astrid said she cut Voorman's hair like that to cover his ears, then Stu adopted it, then George Harrison. Jurgen Vollmer says he invented the style as a rebellion against the current styles, and convinced John and Paul to adopt it.
@@SpaceTravel1776 Thank you for the clarification.
@@SpaceTravel1776 erfunden hat Jürgen Vollmer den Pilzkopf ganz sicher nicht! Dieser Haarschnitt hat er 1954/55 übernommen von »Moe Howard« der ihn schon in den 30er Jahren trug, zu sehen im Kinofilm »"The Three Stooges"« der in den 50er Jahre in Hamburger Kinos lief, Astrid hat Klaus diesen Haarschnitt Ende der 58er Jahre verpasst, Stuart und George dann in den 60er Paul und John reisten nach Paris und ließen sich von Jürgen diesen Haarschnitt schneiden.
Not only is Klaus a great bass player, he is also a great artist: designing the Revolver and the Anthology covers!
He was on stage at the Bangladesh Concert for George also. and on the John Lennon session, solo album . recently released on Netflix, look for it.
@@bobmckenna5511 -it's funny to think that Klaus also played bass on the How Do You Sleep-song, wich is John' s very arrogant attack agains't Paul.
Why are you referring to him in the past tense?
Indeed, IS not WAS !
Very good bassist. Listen to John Lennon and Elton johns Whatever gets you through the night. Some serious bass going on there !
God bless Paul for saving those instruments.
Seriously, museums all over the world are gonna be trying to get their hands on that stuff. That Stevenson 1980 Harpsichord is something else.
I love that Klaus can be so natural with Paul. Part of it is that they met before Paul was famous but also Klaus just seems to have that type of personality, genuine and not afraid to be himself with anyone.
crazy4beatles comedy version off song from Airedale
They are like two kids in a candy store but with a vast knowledge of contemporary music....
Right... Paul looks a bit jumpy and uneasy, which isn't uncommon for him.
They’ve known each other since 1960
Love Klaus so much, he actually 1st saw the Beatles in Hamburg & convinced Astrid 2 go see them. They also changed their hair cuts frm the “Teddyboy” 2 what they became famous 4. He has worked with all 4 Beatles as solo artists. Just live him so much. ❤️
With Ringo suddenly it starts rolling.
He is a great drummer. Indeed.
Klaus is such a lovely and immensely talented man.
The way he talked about Paul at the end was really cute, you can tell he still holds a real fondness for him in his heart.
He seems to still see that 18-year boy he once knew in Hamburg, when he looks at Paul and somehow that's really sweet.
Clear admiration for him, you can see Paul understands too , he knows it means a lot to Klaus
What a great person Klaus is. And so good to see he can have a conversation with Paul as an equal one.
Klaus is protecting "Sir Paul" and his dark secret.
Paul is a musical genius......makes me proud to be a scouser......how life would be so different if The Beatles hadn't come along.....
Great to see Ringo walk in and prove what a brilliant drummer he truly is.
Indeed great to see
Pete forever Ringo never
god bless Klaus Voormann, they are all great, but this man melts my heart.
Yes, he seems like a very nice guy and very humble. No surprise that The Beatles love him.
Regarding Paul & all the Beatles: Klause couldn't have said it better: "It was a beautiful time, thank you very much." My sentiments EXACTLY! I feel honored & privileged to have grown up listening to their music starting on the old transistor radios.
yes, i noticed that line too. poignant, sad, but so true. it's been a hell of a ride. thanks john paul george ringo brian stu mal george billy derek neil astrid & klaus .... some great people along the way
@@violettamagotchi310 And Pete Best as well as much as anyone...If you want to see what Klaus saw and that magic he remembers..the clearest window through to that time is Pete Best..read his book The Pete Best Story..it is the story of the Beatles until that first record hit. The other four Beatles..two of which are now gone..became too rich and far removed from those beginnings and the intimacy to what happened back then to really describe it.You can see in Klaus Voormanns face he is still intimate with those beloved memories.
Paul McCartney is not close to those memories.The Beatles Klaus knew were John Paul George Pete and Stu.
WE ARE A MASSIVE CLUB
this demonstrates the value of time. That won't happen again. Treasure it. Learn to recognize it in your life, musical situation or not.
I love it when Paul picks a "McCartney Rose" and gives it to his friend!....so sweet!
Klaus was there in the early days and has always been a friend and sometimes fill in bass player with the Beatles. It's nice to see him here with Paul, making music and having fun, just being themselves.
Hearing those old instruments again was sensational.
+Noe Berengena Listening to Paul play the first 10 seconds or so of Strawberry Fields Forever was surprisingly magical. He played it so precisely after 40 years and it took me right back to the original vibe.
@@anSealgair you'd think those instruments would be in a museum or something. smh.....not faulting Paul McCartney. The studio was ready to dump them w/o a second thought. I realize it's all about business but come on! it's the Beatles we are talking about here. Glad, at least, McCartney bought them to keep in his family.
Klaus was there from before the beginning of the Beatles, just another young artist trying to make sense of the crazy post-war world. If they had been born 18 years earlier they would have been on opposite sides of WWII Instead they're old and dear friends still making beautiful music together nearly 50 year later.
Yes. There have been much more Beatles-members ...
Klaus Vormann, Billy Preston, Pete Best ... and this is William Camphel ...
... not a reallife lefthanded: drums, roses, drinks ...

Wonderful and astute comment x
Duffy Johnson nice observation about the WWII, friend
Maca and Brian Wilson. The two greatest musicians of their genre. And their indomnible spirit and good will is equal to their talents. So lucky we are to still have them making music.
Brian is not much of abmusician, moreva composer.
@@morbidmanmusic And you are a troll that was definitely not first in your spelling class.
I could watch this stuff all day long.
Just like family. Very emotional. I wish Paul would do a record of his favorite songs by John! Wouldn't that be cool!
Sir Paul is the museum of his own pop history. Ocassionally he shows his contemporaries how brilliant he is. Good for you Klaus, good for you Paul.
There is something about this video - how they seamlessly work together. The Hamburg connection.
"Sir Paul" didn't have anything to do with the Hamburg years. That was before William have joined (late 1966).
klaus has recorded with an amazing group and number of musicians. That's him playing that iconic bass intro on "You're So Vain" by Carly Simon
No kidding? I didn’t know.
Me either.
Correct - when CARLY says “ son of a gun” at the beginning of You’re So Vain she’s reacting to Klaus on bass just riffing/ which they spliced as the song opening
Klaus has had an amazing life!
Son of a gun!
Wow, this has to be my favorite McCartney video so far. The man is so gifted and humble, unbelievable.
its amazing how ringos drums just make every song better
Paul has a strong bond with those iconic instruments they used in their songs. I think it would be difficult for him emotionally to sell those instruments or to have left them behind. Klaus always had a great spirit about him. Glad they remained friends. Paul seems like he’d be a joy to work with. I saw him in Dallas in 2002 and no one in the entire concert hall sat down the whole show. I have never seen that before. Paul is riveting to watch and Klaus covered some good ground musically along the way. Thanks for sharing.
Paul has never been able to process loss. I believe that he has an attachment disorder stemming from this -- the same one which underpins hoarding (a transfer of attachment from people to objects which represent them). That is why he cares so much about preserving these instruments -- he also has Spike Milligan's piano. It is also why he gets so upset when things come up for auction and can be ruthless with people who put things up for sale that he believes should be his (Patti Boyd's having an auction this week, so we'll see if that affects him or not). For him, the people he's lost are never gone so long as he has these objects. That is what I believe anyway. I think the song Junk is best understood in this context as well.
Absolutely delightfully nostalgic video.
Paul really is one of God's most beautiful gifts to our world. His music has given so much pleasure - and his personality takes ones mind off the pressures of modern day living.
Love him to bits. Please God keep him young for at least another 20 years.
I totally agree with what you say here. Great comment.
My God are you people so freaking BLIND, this is NOT James Paul McCartney!
@@peterrothfuss6042 And yet Paul's old friend Klaus Voormann gives him a great big welcoming hug and acts as if he's known him for over half a century -- go figure eh? I guess the "real" Paul didn't have any true friends eh? lolol Maybe Carly Simon should put out a new song for the "Paul Is Dead" folks -- she can call it "You're So Dumb"
I always felt like Klaus was really George’s friend first ; funny to see him hanging with Paul..
@@meeeka People are allowed to have more than one friend. Klaus has said that George was his best friend, but that he was friends with all of them.
Two only friends making music, how perfect is that :)
Rings is still bad ass. How can one drummer stand out so much crisp and smoother.
Ringo isn't a great "technical" drummer, but he's a great musician because he knows how to make the drums serve the song. It's never about serving himself.
Klaus is so sweet. It's no wonder the guys love him.
klaus one of the real friends of the beatles...
@@toddblanks He was almost asked to join the band permanently.
he drew the cover to REVOLVER...his face is on cover too
yeah, they paid him 50 quid for the Revolver cover.
Beg to differ on two counts, @@toddblanks George Martin was the 5th Beatle. And the Let It Be rooftop "concert" occurred in January 1969.
@@toddblanks They met in Hamburg; Klaus's then girlfriend (Astrid) left him for Stuart Sutcliffe - on amicable terms, Klaus taught Astrid English so she could communicate with Stuart.
Klaus is such a nice gentleman and such a talent, both musical and visual!
aww Klaus is such a beautiful person
I like Klaus' back-up band; they've got real potential!
You hit it😂😅😊
A McCartney Rose for a dear Friend Klauss.What a nice ending to a long lasting frienship with great memories for Paul & Klauss.
Paul is the most talented musician ever, he rocks all the instruments he plays
He'd be a legend if the only song he ever recorded was "Maybe I'm Amazed."
That was half a Beatles reunion right there, including a guy who played with all four Beatles in the past, including John Lennon's Imagine album with George Harrison. Nice.
Two phenomenal bass players.
Klaus is /has a beautiful soul!
I have met Klaus Voormann at a Beatles convention many years ago. He is a very nice guy and of course he has signed my copie of the Revolver album. A true friend of The Beatles before they were famous. I love this footage.
Klaus brought me to tears when he summerised hes time with the Beatles! : (
Paul's paradise - he has all kinds of instruments there, and even play them of course ;) He' s a real musician who's doing everything with fun and passion. I love this video!!
ps. Klaus Voormann enjoys all that the most, remembering the old Hamburg/Star Club days. At the end Paul speaks fluently some serious words in german: "Feierabend, wir machen jetzt Ausweiskontrolle! Alle Jugendliche unter 18 Jahren müssen dieses Lokal verlassen."
According to Google's translate tool: "End of work, we are now checking passport! All young people under 18 years must leave this place."
@@bconigliaro
When they were in Hamburg a rival club owner grassed George up to the German old bill and told them he was only 17 and that along with the minor arson incident led him and Paul to be deported back to Britain.
Bad lads dem Beatles.
Klaus was an Art student when the Savage Young Beatles met him in Hamburg. Astrid too except her eye was photography specifically black and white film nour. They were in awe of Klaus' talents. He even coaxed Astrid to cut their hair! I love these stories. I only hope someone tells the whole bloody lot of them soon! It's getting late early ya know....
Thank you for making Klaus smile, Paul.
Klaus Voormann, a true artist, a dear friend, and above all else, an absolute Gentleman.. Lary
I'm so Zeni Don't you Have Something Better To Do.... Lary
I'm So Zeni You don't know what Anyone Believes.... Lary
Good to know that Klaus is still going strong also today in 2019. We need to hang on to the "Beatles people" as long as we can!
Paul sings just 10 sec of BECAUSE and Im getting chills..a Gem song never played live..
What a totally delightful video.. It was so fascinating to see Paul pay the parts to his famous on the original instrument
Great to see Paul and Klaus. Love the origianl instruments. Each has a voice-the challenge is using the voice where it should be used. Love it!
I was sitting here chuckling away at the size of that sound board they're using considering The Beatles did Sgt. Pepper on a couple of 4 track machines! Also it's really sweet to see the warm rapport between good friends who have known each other almost 60 years.
One of the best things I seen I such a long time. Thank you so much
Amazing to see these two fellows being such friends after more than 50 years, especially when you consider the amazing life story they share.
This is a good insight into Paul doing his thing making music, & jamming.
Is there anything Paul can't do musically? He's a one man freakin' band! Maybe I'm amazed.
Hey. Quit neglecting Klaus!
Jack Dean also some trivia Klaus Warman was the guy who designed the Beatles revolver album cover
yeah and what an amazing album cover it was!!!
klaus was the first beatles fan ever, discovering them when the Beatles were starting their career in Hamburg, West Germany
Randi Brooks Klaus discovered the Beatles 👍 He went for a walk through the red light district of Hamburg after having a fight with Astrid, and went for a drink in a bar. He then saw The Beatles on stage there. He then went to see them every night for about a week, before telling Astrid and his other friends that they had to go and see this amazing new band 👍
It's nice when you can see the creative process in motion from someone like McCartney, Starr and Voorman. Good lesson for new musicians that there are some creative individuals you can work with for a lifetime.
It's so real, it makes me feel like I'm right there with them. Paul is ever so friendly. Beautiful people. God bless them!
Klaus recorded with Ringo, John and George many times, but this was the first time he ever worked with Paul in the studio. It's kind of a full circle moment.
With Paul you mean William.
@@olskzeri1476so old.
Ringo says “I am the fookin click track”
Every inches of the video footage from all the musicians around the world are priceless, especially from the Beatles. Thank you for the uploading this piece of history.
What an absolutely charming lovely video of a fun day for two old friends
Fantastic Ringo ... the best drummer ever.
"In 2008, Paul McCartney recorded it again with Klaus Voormann & Ringo Starr; this version appears on Klaus Voormann’s “A Sideman’s Journey“ The song he recorded with Paul and Ringo for this project has an interesting story. It’s the old Fats Domino song “I’m In Love Again” (previously covered by Paul on the CHOBA B CCCP album). The reason for this choice was that this was the first ever song where Klaus tried his hand at playing the bass guitar. Klaus made his debut as a bass guitarist sitting next to the stage at the Top Ten Club in Hamburg, borrowing Stu Sutcliffe’s Höfner 333 while The Beatles performed the song. "
Love to see this old friends having a great time!
I love the sound of the cembalo! 😍🎶
Klaus Voormann is just as legendary as Paul and the rest of the band as he goes back to the early days. He's both an artist (Revolver cover) and a musician. Klaus rocks!
"Klaus Voormann is just as legendary as Paul and the rest of the band..."
Could anything be more obviously untrue than that statement?
Paul is such an amazing multi-instrumentalist
Dearest one,thank you so much for sharing this beautiful video...Simplicity at its best!
Very touching video...Klaus is a great guy
PPS..Imagine how little we would have known or seen without UA-cam !!! So, thanks to all the genius techs at Google for this aspect of the net !!!
Klaus called him 'Paulie' that's so sweet great friends.
That was beautiful..I'm so glad they did it.
than for posting ! so refreshing to see and hear
To answer the Benny Hinn comment - I don't think that John would have cared that Paul recorded some of these old songs. He did a full album of old 50's and 60's songs called Rock 'n' Roll back in the 70's. There's nothing like a bunch of musicians getting together and playing old songs that you love and enjoy playing. It just makes music fun. These guys have nothing prove to anyone, they made their mark in music history, now they do what they do because they enjoy it, not for anyone's approval.
"Benny Hill"?
Lennon ripped off the line 'here come old flattop' on Cometogether, from an old song. The publishers wanted to sue him. The publishers also owned many of the rock classics from 50's - 60's. So Lennon made a deal. He did the rock covers and released it as a great album. The publishers made a lot of money from sales of Lennon's album. Lennon got out of a lawsuit, had a lot of fun recording some of his old favorite songs. And we the listeners got to hear great versions of songs, done by John Lennon.. Kind of a win-win for everyone
Who are u? U don't even know these guys, so how can u say something like u know it's true? Take about ur work, something u know.
Spangliscjh
@@MrMarkstyles Thanks for the info. I'm assuming it's all true, and it's a rare case of things working out perfectly in an imperfect world for all parties involved. Money can do that.
You know what's somehow most telling here? The last 10 seconds when Paul is reciting from memory in German what he must have heard countless times in Hamburg clubs. And he remembers it through all these years. I remember train station announcements in Switzerland from some trips years ago - it's just so random and so true.
Thank you for posting this great video, so much interesting background information.
What a treat this is. :-) Thank you so much!
Impressionante!!!
A humildade, criatividade, bom humor e genialidade desse cara não tem fim.
Viva Paul MacCartney!!!!
Klaus was the artist of the Revolver cover. I believe he's the face in the forefront of the illustration.
I saw a documentary about him a little while back, actually he's at the right hand side, a really small photo. He was sort of "ashamed" of doing such thing as putting his own face there :D Klaus seems like an awesome artist, really humble as well.
I know Klaus personally very nice guy to me
McCartney's certainly not humble.
@@chrisrichardson6482 _For all he's accomplished, yes he is.
A very talented artist. i.pinimg.com/originals/a1/e7/37/a1e7374d04906ba27477575aa909a3bf.jpg
What a lovely down to earth guy Klaus is :-)
I love seeing the stuff with Klaus in the footage! He was so important to those boys. Would love to meet him one day!
Paul is so adorable!!!
All those years ago, two friends getting back together to enjoy the music and one another. Yeah the film was edited but the love Klaus has for Paul is obvious.
Thanks for sharing Paul
Love this one man!!! this is as close you can get and see him and his friends do what they do best......
Both John and Paul loved Klaus.That's what makes this so special being that John is somewhere saying out loud "you see Paul has great taste in partnerships!" There are so many Beatles out there people so stop saying 5th or 6th... It's endless baby!
Klaus is such a lovely man great artist great musician. Do you know when the worlds greatest rock bassist asked you to play bass on their record, you’re pretty darn good
Brian Dillon ....he played bass on John Lennons 'Woman'! I wished they did more interviews of him
Love watching Paul, Ringo was awesome as usual
Das hat richtig spass gemacht .... that was really good fun !!!
Beautiful and sad this life is so bloody short, that's why some of it is so beautiful I think... Oh I don't know now I'm confused
Klaus is such a sweet man.
beautiful time ,thank you very much
Two old friends sharing a few minutes of the day enjoying what they both know best. Love and respect, musical memories and each other's company. One forgets that one is just about one of the most famous men on the planet. That was a nice few minutes. Such talented people.
@@olskzeri2723 Did I mention any specific time period. They have known one another years hjat is a fact. What is your point here? I'm not really interested in placing any interpretation on this other than enjoying the obvious bond of respect these two mates feel for one another.
This track, I'm In Love Again, was released on a cd called Voormann & Friends/A Sidemans Journey at the end of 2011
This man designed and created many artworks by The Beatles, including the Famous cover "Revolver". Amazing.
What a sweet thing Klaus said near the end. I feel like Paul is a “live in the moment” kind of guy. Like, “Yep it was great ok now whats next?” and starts to whistle… lol
I enjoyed watching this, thank you for sharing :)
Nobody talking about that old Höfner bass that Klaus is playing?
It might still be the original bass that Stuart gave to him, though it's probably broken by now...
That’s the first thing I thought when I was watching...Wait is that Stu’s Hofner. Looks exactly the same as Stu’s. Not sure what happened to Stu’s bass. Anyone??
That was the first thing I saw 😄
Gefällt mir. Auch der Song, der am Anfang gemeinsam komponiert wird. Und nachher das Spinett, das Harmonium, alles Instrumente, zu denen ich einen Bezug habe, und dann noch Paul McCartney daran, das ist wie eine Droge. In English: Paul McCartney sitting behind his different instruments, feels for me like very soft drugs. Petra Klöckner, Mülheim upon Ruhr, Germany
Makes Me Smile To See These Guys Jamming!😎. God Bless.
