Gee, thanks for your positive response to a comment that is nearly a decade old. And yeah, I'm allowed an opinion, you prick. Who would you say deserves money more than Paul? Trump? If I had to guess what color hat you have in your closet, I'd guess red.
Close. The studio recording features both Paul McCartney and Lenny Kaye, so it's kind of a Paul McCartney/Patti Smith collab. In 2023, she performed She's Leaving Home at a Paul McCartney tribute concert, but he wasn't there.
Recorded almost thirty years ago, and I don't hear a line that's out of date. Sixty years ago, Allen was similarly calling attention to what Dylan would later call the "idiot wind" that blows and blows against ordinary, decent people. It's why poets have to keep talking back to it. RIP Allen Ginsberg, American bard.
Some people (Paul) you can tell they've been playing guitar for so long. Not the most technically careful or anything, but plays so naturally and authentically it would be pointless to try and replicate
This is one of the most wonderful things I've ever seen. Thank you internet and god bless all you amazing people who upload stuff. Gives me faith in humanity.
There's a little mistake on the video credits. It's actually Royal Albert Hall 1995. --- On 16th October 1995 Paul joined legendary poet Allen Ginsberg on stage at the Royal Albert Hall, the two of them collaborating on a version of Ginsberg's poem Ballad Of The Skeletons. A year later, Paul recorded a version of the poem in the studio with Ginsberg, the CD version of which is now a collector's item.
What an interesting year for McCartney collaborations. He also worked with Yoko Ono on a piece she wrote for the 50th anniversary of the Hiroshima bombing.
This is so great,the reading of a poem with much meaning and thought about the injustices that have gone on and are still going on by uncaring greedy earth polluting and plundering companies and the lying, cowardly bought off politicians that have let it go on and on... and that is some great guitar by a very talented natural born musician,singer & composer that can go places....cheers & thanks for posting..it is a great work of art
Allen took great delight in playing with young talented boys who were going places...Few if any have complained...Except for Allen also taking great delight in droning on all night far from any recognizable pitch or tune with or without his harmonium, um, if ya know what I mean...Paul shouldn't be discouraged, he'll make it to the big stages. Like Allen, Paul's also got a knack for dodging the really nasty risk factors! Good faith can take one to many worthy humane ends...ba ding
Oh My God. this is just fantastic! Just today I discovered Beatles in is fact Les Beat! Got it? The Beat generation. Now I find this...only to confirm. I am in heaven! Look at Paul's expression of adoration.
I think the best music comes from collaboration. This is a wonderful example with pioneers of poetry and music. Ginsberg shows his unique sense of humor, and this is proof of McCartney's guitar chops.
Surprised that Paul didn't use a left handed guitar. It's one thing replacing the nut with a left handed, but when the jack socket and controls are in the way of your forearm it doesn't seem worth it? It doesn't look as if he is playing right handed chords either?
Gotta love Ginsberg. Throws himself at everything without the least bit of self consciousness.. This seemed awkward in parts but the spirit of the two to invent and take a risk shone though into a really good performance. All power to Ginsberg and McCartney.
@@flaviuscountry Can YOU read? "Naked kinds have been a staple of delight for centuries, for both parents and onlookers. So to label pedophilia as criminal is ridiculous."--Allen Ginsberg Yes, he really said this! Furthermore, there are far, far better ways to support free speech than to join a sick organization that victimizes little boys. And you are an absolute sick pervert for condoning this. If you're okay with it, you must be a pedo yourself.

The Beat and the Beatle.
Hexactly! ;-)

Not only is this a fantastic performance with two legends. Paul couldn't have picked a better guitar out of his collection to play either! Love it!
It's his favourite!
This "legend" was a creepy supporter of pedophilia and a member of NAMBLA.
This may be my favorite McCartney performance. He usually so guarded but you can see the real artist here.
We agree!
Better than Hey Jude?😮
It’s soooooo rare to see Paul post John look in awe of his co-performee
I have never adored a moment of history so passionately.
You know that Allen Ginsberg was a supporter of pedophilia and NAMBLA, right?
"I saw the best minds of my generation destroyed by madness . . . "
That is 'Howl"
I love how they cue each other
Paul, you are the only billionaire who deserves every damn penny.
best thing I read about a billionaire.
I'm glad we have people like you to decide who deserves what.
Gee, thanks for your positive response to a comment that is nearly a decade old. And yeah, I'm allowed an opinion, you prick. Who would you say deserves money more than Paul? Trump? If I had to guess what color hat you have in your closet, I'd guess red.

I have always wondered what a Paul McCartney / Patti Smith collaboration would be like.
Something like this. Patti Smith Within You Without You ua-cam.com/video/wrCk5ZWt3a8/v-deo.html

I was there near the front and just spotted myself very briefly at the end. A night never forgotten.
Thats' fantastic

Well said!
well this is legendary.
At 79 and nearing death, I try to explain life to my 40 year old Senior old son? I do love him.

A very odd thing to say, considering that Allen Ginsberg was a supporter of pedophilia and a member of NAMBLA.
Today Commemorates Allen Ginsberg's 90th Birthday~
Hadda be playing on the jukebox (Flashing like the daily double)

I was thinking that they had got the date wrong too as I went to see it after just having moved to London for the first time in 1995.
What an interesting year for McCartney collaborations. He also worked with Yoko Ono on a piece she wrote for the 50th anniversary of the Hiroshima bombing.
This is so great,the reading of a poem with much

Take away the poem and I'd've still enjoyed it. I wish Paul would play this style more often, because he rocks it!
The fact the Epiphone is a bit out of tune just makes this more "beat generation" and countercultural hahaha
Oh My God. this is just fantastic! Just today I discovered Beatles in is fact Les Beat! Got it? The Beat generation. Now I find this...only to confirm. I am in heaven! Look at Paul's expression of adoration.
The best guitar I've ever heard Paul McCartney play
I think the best music comes from collaboration. This is a wonderful example with pioneers of poetry and music. Ginsberg shows his unique sense of humor, and this is proof of McCartney's guitar chops.
Ginsberg also showed his love for little boys. He was a card-carrying member of NAMBLA. Don't believe me? Look it up!
Oh fuck, YES! I feel fucking awesome that I found this.
This man was a hero.
Profound, inspiring, and flat out hilarious.
Great poem! And it's still relevant. What fantastic guitar playing, and all ad-libbed! Thanks for this.
thé énergies were just right between them i Can feel .
This is so great! I can hardly believe it exists!
I've heard alot about this but never seen it, thx !
This song have been with me nearly from the release. Love this poem.
The master of melody
I was in school and working. I missed this because I was foolishly distracts by trying to stay fed and sheltered.
Why havent i seen this before? Hoooooooowwwwwwwlllll!
America. Are you listening? More relevant than ever today.
Beautiful song and guitar.
Ginsberg actually has a poem about the Beatles when he attended their 1965 gig at the Portland Colosseum
Where can I see it?
this is so good, Paul needs (needed) to do more music like this x
But not with outspoken pedophiles.
Аллен,Пол , вам нет равных и никогда не будет! Мир вам и любовь!

Holy the supernatural extra brilliant intelligent

You forgot to mention that he was a supporter of pedophilia and a member of NAMBLA.

Incredible....
Great video. I had never seen this before! Had the CD for years. This has a very different vibe than the recorded version. Thanks for the upload.
Wow how amazing was this !
This is glorious, thanks for the upload.
Would you give me a cup of coffee Rog?
Both vibing
love it!
The most interesting
Ginsberg + McCartney = Bob Dylan.
+Leigh Foulkes facebook.com/media/set/?set=oa.656328474405688
What a smart comment, absolutely right on.
More like Ginsberg + Guthrie
Have you listened to "Vomit Express"?
Leigh Foulkes wow. Sounds like a sold soul to me.
Fantastic !
Thank you! Cheers!
Luv!
For Paul
Why i didn't find you sooner?!!!
Surprised that Paul didn't use a left handed guitar. It's one thing replacing the nut with a left handed, but when the jack socket and controls are in the way of your forearm it doesn't seem worth it? It doesn't look as if he is playing right handed chords either?
Paul's had that guitar since 1964. It was originally a right handed guitar, but he had it modified so that he can play it.
This is so boss!
about a dozen verses added here. Loved the original.
Is anybody else hearing Mccartney riff off of the melody from "Under the Sea?"
Uma reliquia q eu não tinha visto ! Beat generation ( walker, Brasilia Brazil )
timeless
The Skelton Me llike this and the one made of Flesh too what a coincidence...Allen: Nice people that America used to have.
What does the NAMbLA Skeleton have to say...?
Yes!
This is a genuine total gem of culture, history, shared humanity!!! - BPG
Real punk
I`m Loving This Man. He is still here. Profit of american Poem. I Will never took him Yellow Rose.
Couse from his grave. He`s still here whit US.
He's rotting in Hell. He was a supporter of pedophilia and a member of NAMBLA.
Ohhhh yea
Awesome! 🎸🎤
What was the date of this performance?
Tell us of the NAMBLA skeleton
get SIR Paul McCartney on the JRE to spill out some golden stories please
Simply awesome 😎
Thanks a lot 😊
+Elvis McCartney
look up McCartney doing "Sing The Changes"

This "poem" was recited by The Poet Skeleton.
Allen please beat me !!!
Did Paul play on the recording too?
Yes, he did.
Thanks a lot, because I lost so many seldom videos.
Ginsberg is a king' mccartny hardly chargesthis.. Longlivepoetry
Ginsberg was a low life creep who supported pedophilia.
Met Ginz at the Hitchcock estate in 1965.
First time I've saw this
Paul’s got his Epiphone!
Anyone know the basic chords to this?
Gemma Pettersen E, A and B. Then it transposes up to G, C and D
bello
竟有种莫名的感动
I’d watch 8 mins of Paul jamming out anyway
Gotta love Ginsberg. Throws himself at everything without the least bit of self consciousness.. This seemed awkward in parts but the spirit of the two to invent and take a risk shone though into a really good performance. All power to Ginsberg and McCartney.
Thanks for writing
How does one love a creep who supported pedophilia and was a member of NAMBLA?
very good - mcartney surprisingly so

Is it, though? Allen Ginsberg was a creepy pervert and a card-carrying member of NAMBLA. Look it up and see for yourself.
What is? Paul playing guitar with an outspoken pedophile?
Did Allen invite Sir Paul to a Nambla meeting afterwards?
"True Statements"
👍
Love ya Allen
And Allen loved little boys. He was a member of NAMBLA.
@@Mato1970 nope. It was a free speech thing for him. Read his reasoning why. If you can read
