@@acousticsong-guitarco964 Certainly worth pointing out. They used tape manipulation like this on a lot of songs. Even some where it's not obvious at all.
Mind boggling to imagine Paul McCartney waking up July 6th, 1957 and thinking gee I wonder what I'm going to do today, I don't know, guess I'll go to this party.
I have been a fan since 1964. You learn eventually that Paul is like a wind-up toy. He tells the same stories over and over again...:)...and he has a tendency to make stuff up that isn't true too.
Whenever I listen to , either John's or Pauls version of their first meeting, I get the impression that , they were physically attracted towards each other. Their first impression was like "this dude is really handsome! I should get to know him! "😅
I hope one day there is an Anthology Anniversary issue that includes all of the unused footage like this as bonus. There are lot's out there, and supposedly when the "Threetles" jammed there was a lot more than what we've seen.
Just think....if Paul had said "sorry, no, I don't think I'll go to that fete" he would not have met Lennon and there would have been no Beatlemania or albums full of great music. Must have been one of those crazy cosmic happenings that come along once in a lifetime.
How this bit was left out of the original is outstanding.. although nothing is new, it’s simply the delivery of it by the great man. We need to see all the outtakes.
It's from "Anthology, Director's Cut 1993", not the best quality as it was lifted from VHS tape. Still worth watching though. Doesn't get beyond "Let It Be" era which is a shame. 10 discs, but most of the extras are ads etc.for the "Anthology" series in the US.
If anyone can point me in a direction where I can get a link to this rough cut of anthology that'd be ace :) been reading up about this this past week interesting to hear what was cut out
At 14:36 when Paul goes into his true tenor as I've heard him do in the Let It Be tapes, you KNOW his insane range that only a lucky minority of men can do. What a waste to the world had he become a teacher (nothing against teachers - you know what I mean).
Just LOOK at Stuart Sutcliffe. He was an angel in leather - the first to adopt The Beatle Haircut; a brilliant artist and the epitome of "cool". But, he'd never be the bass player Paul McCartney became. Stuart found his love - and she lived in Hamburg. Astrid molded the fledgling Beatles' style. Had he lived 6 months longer - Stu would've witnessed his mates' success in Europe - and he'd have been so proud. Stu saw The Beatles' future. He knew they were going places - but NOBODY imagined the worldwide heights they'd attain.
You’re talking out of your ass. How do you know Sutcliffe was a “brilliant artist”?Have ever seen a single one of his paintings? He’d never be the bass player McCartney became? McCartney never exactly became Jaco (or Stanley Clarke or Miroslav Vitous or anyone else who could really play). How do you know Sutcliffe “saw the Beatles’ future” or would’ve “been so proud”?
@@herbertwells8757 Oh, what a drag. McCartney is arguably much more important than Jaco or Clarke. He did for the the bass guitar more than either. As far as rock bassist go, he's very good, he pushed boundaries, and stole from the best (Jamerson, Dunn, Kaye). I have no doubts Stu would've left the music anyway, he just wasn't interested.
@Herbert Wells. There have been several posthumous Stuart Sutcliffe exhibitions in England over the years. I've witnessed his work and he was brilliant.
Never saw this interview, learned alot from it I didn't know. Thx to youtube for having so much about music. The Beatles to me have always been #1. I love hearing Paul, could listen to him for hours! I consider The Beatles a blessing!
Years ago, back in the wild west days of UA-cam.. 2009ish, there was a Directors Cut version of the entire Anthology, 10 parts an episode. All the "deleted scenes" were left in. It made it a few years before it got disappeared.
Oh, to have been in the room when a 15 year-old Paul played Twenty Flight Rock to a 16 year-old John Lennon on July 6th, 1957. And the rest, as they say, is history.
Paul and John were the hottest couple ever. I wish they did more than jerking off each other! ❤ I m more into the 62-63 era , when they were more like a girlband ( mr Postman, you really got a hold on me, she loves you etc....).
The rumours about this footage not being reused was that Paul thought his hair looked too grey. Between 1986-1992 his hair slowly got a bit of grey. By the time of the "Off the Ground" album & 'The New World Tour' he was into the hair dye. It wasn't until just recently, like 2018-ish, that he slowly let the grey show again. The last social media picture of his I saw, for this Valentine's Day, showed him pretty much full on grey. It suits him and it really did in the early '90's too if you ask me. I love Macca but it shows how readily these stories are in his mind. He has a penchant for repeating stories and his in concert banter the past few tours has been the exact same between each song. I'm sure once they were shooting interviews to replace these McCartney had zero problems remembering what he'd said before...
I agree. I thought Paul looked good with the grey hair, back then. I also liked his Let it Be look, with the beard. Clearly, he didn't care for either. Lol.
@@neilsun2521 Me & the wife saw him in 2019 in my hometown of Las Vegas and then a month later in LA at Dodger stadium, the last show of the tour (and his last big show since the pandemic). Of course we had a blast but the pat scripted bits between songs were just eye rolling. I get having beats and marks for lighting during the show or things like the big tower he stands on during the acoustic set, but in between song banter should be off the cuff. I guess he has his reasons...
@@calisongbird He and David Gilmour have scrumptious melodic inflection and that 'lightly damp' clarity of affect that makes every word like silky chocolate or candy or something... I'm a big fan :)
I'd KILL for a tape of the "Orbison" version of PLEASE PLEASE ME!. Keith said the first time they plugged a cord into an amp-they were already IN London-while the Beatles felt they were slowly moving up in show business and playing London was a big deal for the Beatles. Keith said "At least we have a foothold in our own fucking town"
"And I think some other person on that bill was relieved of a guitar that day... I do believe." (at 7:09) We have John getting both a guitar and a harmonica in that particular method during the early days of the group.
7'15" .... "someone was relieved of a guitar that day I believe." He's talking about the time that John stole someone's guitar that was backstage at the show.
I’ll always believe it was that almost magic combination of both seeing them and hearing their songs which happened on that CBS Newscast in 1963. “Reporting from Beatleland formerly known as Great Britain, Ya Ya Ya.”
Roy Orbison and the Beatles were buds. Roy - Pretty Woman, yeah yeah yeah. The Beatles also used the melody for that part of Pretty Woman in I Wanna Hold Your Hand...and when I touch you I feel happy inside.
Wow. George (2/25/43) is actually less than 8 months younger than Paul (6/18/42). Kind of strange that Paul thinks he was a year and a half older (3:25).
This was left out perhaps on in time constraints, because it would fit just as well. He redid the tale about introduction of colour in films, etc. Being the Beatles, just seeing them or hearing say anything makes is worth watching!
I don’t know where you get the idea that McCartney was a teen nerd. Far from it. He was a ladykiller. Good looking. Could play the guitar and sing. He was into “black acts” as he put it, which was risqué back then. He even admitted talking down to George as a kid. Paul was definitely confident and cool as a teen. John was instantly drawn to him.
He re-tells a lot of these stories in another interview that was used in Anthology. Typical McCartney, he tells these almost word for word but most of this particular interview was not used in the broadcast or dvd versions.
The words are in there, but not the footage. In other words, they probably did multiple takes of the same interview questions and answers - which tells me that it was all scripted and staged...not that the events described didn't actually happen, but you have to remember, this is all show biz stuff...
Indeed there's a lot of unused interview footage. I think Paul decided to re-shoot anything where he's wearing that black shirt with all of the 45s on it.
8:39 I don't know why Paul claims Stu couldn't play. It's a fallacy. Pete Best, Klaus Voorman and Howie Casey have all said he could. How could everyone in the band improve playing for hours every night and Stu be the exception? In one of the letters he wrote home, Stu wrote: "We have improved a thousand-fold since our arrival". ua-cam.com/video/k1Yrwyfk2NQ/v-deo.html Pete Best: "I've defended his corner for many, many years because the media over the years have said that Stu was a bad bass player and he wasn't. Stu was a very good bass player, it's just he was a very simple bass player. Because at the end of the day we were playing Rock & Roll and what he did was exactly what a bass player should do in those days. I was the drummer, right? The bass player and the drummer are the engine room of a Rock & Roll band and Stu was great to play with. Over the years they've said he couldn't play bass, he turned his back on the audience. He didn't, okay. That was just his move." ua-cam.com/video/mJbX5Hi2ujg/v-deo.html Klaus Voorman: "His musical abilities weren't that great, but as a Rock & Roll bass player I thought he was incredible. He was really sufficient and he had this Rock & Roll feeling, which is sometimes more important than being able to play thousands of notes. Most of those Rock & Roll songs are just three chords and he did it perfect for me." ua-cam.com/video/k1Yrwyfk2NQ/v-deo.html Klaus has said on various occasions he would not have picked up the bass if it wasn't for Stu. Howie Casey on the Larry Parnes-Wyvern audition: "...I was surprised to find that Stuart Sutcliffe, the bass player, performed with his back to the audience. This, I learned, was because he was because he was so self-conscious and critical of his own musical ability." Howie Casey on Stu in Hamburg: "The manager (of the Kaiserkellar) decided to discontinue having a jukebox in the interval - and wanted to put a group on instead. So he split our group in two and arranged for Stu to play with us. So the second unit of The Seniors was myself on sax, Stan Foster on piano, Stu on bass and a terrific German modern jazz drummer. We couldn't much outside of a 12 bar blues with Stu and I noticed more than ever how self-critical he was about his music all the the time." Source: Mersey Beat, 20th June - 4th July 1963 I've yet to find a comment from Tony Sheridan regarding Stu's musical ability but he did say in the 'Stuart Sutcliffe, The Lost Beatle' documentary': "If you had something, a bit of talent, then you got good in Hamburg. Because you had to work all night and develop it and they (The Beatles) got good" ua-cam.com/video/k1Yrwyfk2NQ/v-deo.html
@@ianz9916 Exactly. He mentioned Stu soon catching almost right after how Stu couldn’t play at first....because Stu was a painter friend of John’s, not a musician. They needed bassist and Stu had to learn to play in the beginning
14:00 I'm a bit confused here with Paul saying that George Martin wasn't impressed with Ringo's drumming, so he used Alan White instead. My understanding has always been that because George Martin had been unimpressed with Pete Bests drumming in his first meeting with the Beatles, before their next meeting he had already prearranged for Alan White to drum for the session without even giving Ringo, who was an unknown quantity to him, a try first.
This is Paul re writing history again . Ringo played with them on a session on the 4th of September 1962 . They recorded Love me do & How do you do it & a mix of Love me do was completed . It was felt that there wasn’t a master, so Ron Richards ( who felt it was the drums that were lacking ) booked the studio for the 11th of September & Andy White to take care of the drumming duties. The 11th session was produced by Ron Richards & not George Martin & a mix of take 18 was deemed best. Ironically Ringo’s version was released as a single while Andy’s version is on the LP along with PS I Love you. When asked about Ringo’s version of LMD being released as a single, George Martin said it wasn’t a conscious decision. Obviously there were two 1/4 “ tapes with LMD & the words Best written on the box held in the Tape library.
It's a matter of history erroding the details of memories. George Martin wasn't impressed by Best's drumming so White was hired. This was pretty standard at the time, but it seems to have spurred the band into firing Pete Best, who wasn't a close friend like they all were. Ringo and the others seemed to be under the impression that is Ringo was good enough they wouldn't need a session musician. That wasn't true and it seems Ringo was a bit nervous at the session anyhow, so Martin used White, who he'd already hired. So for Ringo this was a personal snub, but Martin didn't understand why and the Beatles remember Pete's firing as Martin's fault, but it's not really.
I believe this comes from the Anthology "Director's Cut," which is essentially a bootleg dvd set expanding upon the official version. It's been a while since I watched that ten disc set, but this is all very familiar. After seeing this, I might have to dig out that dvd set.
It’s still strange that someone was using the name Beetles. In the Wild One movie in the Fifties. There was a Playboy name before Hugh Hefner’s Playboy magazine. Certain ideas are just in the air and get realized fully later.
@@GargeBarge There is an old movie called The Wild one made in the 50's. Lee Marvin (actor) plays the head of a biker gang. The girls in his gang are known as The Beetles. Yes it's spelt like that.
So far it sounds like this poor guy has had nothing but one failure after another. ...maybe with some practice he'll manage to make a living in music some day.
I thought I was a superfan, but I don’t recognize the face at around 3:00? It sounds like some have said here in the comments he is Neil Aspinall; my best guess was Ivan Vaughn?
Man, I love that steel grey hair Paul had for about 10 minutes! Far too late now as he looks wonderful with white but I sure wish he would have done steel grey rather than the less flattering dark dye :( and the crewcut in the aughts was an absolute nightmare. Paul has always been a good looking man, but damn that 2nd wife was hell on his hair.
7:09 "and some other person on that bill was relieved of a guitar that day, I do believe" - that would have gone with the amp from Liverpool College of Art.
Paul Mcartney had a tremendous voice and vocal range, he’s one of the very best rock and roll singers of all time.
You know they sometimes recorded his voice at a lower key, they slowed down the tape and put it back to normal for the final result. They used that trick more than once.

This "smile" doesn't belong to the cute and charming James Paul McCartney. It belongs to the green-eyed scotsman Billy Shears.
Paul met his Fate at the Woolton Fete.
I hope one day there is an Anthology Anniversary issue that includes all of the unused footage like this as bonus. There are lot's out there, and supposedly when the "Threetles" jammed there was a lot more than what we've seen.

That would be 'gear'.
Like a director's cut and hopefully they have the footage to make it widescreen. Ooooo I'd totally buy that.
There's the Director's Cut, but that's hard to find in HD. Apparently, part of the cut stuff involved the Threetles' reaction to Yoko in 1968.
This video is actually on the the Director's Cut of the anthology. It's been out there for years.
Pauls great Roy Orbison Impression.

I was the drummer, right? The bass player and the drummer are the engine room of a Rock & Roll band and Stu was great to play with. Over the years they've said he couldn't play bass, he turned his back on the audience. He didn't, okay. That was just his move."

Klaus Voorman: "His musical abilities weren't that great, but as a Rock & Roll bass player I thought he was incredible. He was really sufficient and he had this Rock & Roll feeling, which is sometimes more important than being able to play thousands of notes. Most of those Rock & Roll songs are just three chords and he did it perfect for me."

Klaus has said on various occasions he would not have picked up the bass if it wasn't for Stu.
Howie Casey on the Larry Parnes-Wyvern audition: "...I was surprised to find that Stuart Sutcliffe, the bass player, performed with his back to the audience. This, I learned, was because he was because he was so self-conscious and critical of his own musical ability."
Howie Casey on Stu in Hamburg: "The manager (of the Kaiserkellar) decided to discontinue having a jukebox in the interval - and wanted to put a group on instead. So he split our group in two and arranged for Stu to play with us. So the second unit of The Seniors was myself on sax, Stan Foster on piano, Stu on bass and a terrific German modern jazz drummer. We couldn't much outside of a 12 bar blues with Stu and I noticed more than ever how self-critical he was about his music all the the time."

I've yet to find a comment from Tony Sheridan regarding Stu's musical ability but he did say in the 'Stuart Sutcliffe, The Lost Beatle' documentary':
"If you had something, a bit of talent, then you got good in Hamburg. Because you had to work all night and develop it and they (The Beatles) got good" ua-cam.com/video/k1Yrwyfk2NQ/v-deo.html
Stu did improve but obviously not enough for Paul’s liking.
He said Stu couldn't play when he got the bass guitar but he also says at 10 minutes in that he soon caught up.
@@ianz9916 Exactly. He mentioned Stu soon catching almost right after how Stu couldn’t play at first....because Stu was a painter friend of John’s, not a musician. They needed bassist and Stu had to learn to play in the beginning
Because he was not good enough, even John who was his friend said clearly Stu was not good enough and had no real commitment with music.
he clearly says he struggled at first, 'but came along eventually' etc.
14:00 I'm a bit confused here with Paul saying that George Martin wasn't impressed with Ringo's drumming, so he used Alan White instead. My understanding has always been that because George Martin had been unimpressed with Pete Bests drumming in his first meeting with the Beatles, before their next meeting he had already prearranged for Alan White to drum for the session without even giving Ringo, who was an unknown quantity to him, a try first.
Quite !
This is Paul re writing history again . Ringo played with them on a session on the 4th of September 1962 . They recorded Love me do & How do you do it & a mix of Love me do was completed . It was felt that there wasn’t a master, so Ron Richards ( who felt it was the drums that were lacking ) booked the studio for the 11th of September & Andy White to take care of the drumming duties. The 11th session was produced by
Ron Richards & not George Martin & a mix of take 18 was deemed best. Ironically Ringo’s version was released as a single while Andy’s version
is on the LP along with PS I Love you. When asked about Ringo’s version of LMD being released as a single, George Martin said it wasn’t a conscious decision. Obviously there were two 1/4 “ tapes with LMD & the words Best written on the box held in the Tape library.
It's a matter of history erroding the details of memories. George Martin wasn't impressed by Best's drumming so White was hired. This was pretty standard at the time, but it seems to have spurred the band into firing Pete Best, who wasn't a close friend like they all were. Ringo and the others seemed to be under the impression that is Ringo was good enough they wouldn't need a session musician. That wasn't true and it seems Ringo was a bit nervous at the session anyhow, so Martin used White, who he'd already hired.
So for Ringo this was a personal snub, but Martin didn't understand why and the Beatles remember Pete's firing as Martin's fault, but it's not really.
Quite right, Helen!
@@hellsjamfleas Incorrect, read"The KitOwl" reply for the actual timeline of events.
this is more interesting than some of the sanitised interviews in the actual anthology
Well Louis Armstrong did sing a lot inspite of his trumpet playing lol
And later on, Chet Baker too.
ha ha....never at the same time
You can dispel the idea that they got their name from The Wild One. It was banned, first screening in the UK in 1967.
doesn't seem unused to me; it's in my version of the (legit purchase) 'standard' anthology. every single bit.
Great, open interview. :)
0:24 what the hell is trying to escape from his shirt????
Holly came out of Nashville? That's gonna' shock people in Waco, Texas where he got his start.
8:50 They misunderstood what "beetles" meant. Paul said they thought it was the guys, but actually it referred to the girls.
I believe this comes from the Anthology "Director's Cut," which is essentially a bootleg dvd set expanding upon the official version. It's been a while since I watched that ten disc set, but this is all very familiar. After seeing this, I might have to dig out that dvd set.
13:42 Paul has a great earnest laugh
Wonderful.
They were really very Young in July 1957 when they met.
John was 17, Paul 15, and George 14.
@@barnabyaprobert5159 John still 16 years old. His birthday was in october. 😉
Paul knew George before, in the bus for school. Who knows when? Maybe when George arrived to Paul’s school? 1954 or 1953?
I think Harrison met Lennon through McCartney in 58
@@jk4675 yes I think so. He passed the audition in the bus in February 1958.
09:07 Please, tell me... What is George talking about..? Fifty fifty, Sutclife Lennon... Í´m not so good in english... ;-)
@UC7NI5bu8_IthMe0lC1s2mKA Thanks 😉 👍
Happy 80th Paul!
Correction Paul. In The Wild one, The Beetles were the girls in Lee Marvin's gang.
But it’s a movie. How could know how it was spelled?
It’s still strange that someone was using the name Beetles.
In the Wild One movie in the Fifties.
There was a Playboy name before Hugh Hefner’s Playboy magazine. Certain ideas are just in the air and get realized fully later.
The fuck are the beetles
@@GargeBarge There is an old movie called The Wild one made in the 50's. Lee Marvin (actor) plays the head of a biker gang. The girls in his gang are known as The Beetles. Yes it's spelt like that.
@@jeffryphillipsburns Well I would guess because that's how beetles was spelt.
John was singing “come go with me” by the del Shannon’s. He didn’t know the lyrics so improvised.
Respectfully,
it was The Del-Vikings.
Mike Williams "Sage of Quay" how do you explain these reminiscing moments??? 🙄
I didn't know Zenith made guitars at one point. Cool.
♡♡♡
So awesome.
So far it sounds like this poor guy has had nothing but one failure after another.
...maybe with some practice he'll manage to make a living in music some day.
What has he really done since 'In Spite of All The Danger'...lol
Beatles Anthology director cut, i have the complete 10 volumes
Buddy Holly wasn’t at all out of Nashville, let alone sorta
I thought I was a superfan, but I don’t recognize the face at around 3:00? It sounds like some have said here in the comments he is Neil Aspinall; my best guess was Ivan Vaughn?
That's Neil that is:)
Those are readily available in the directors cut.
The Girl Can't Help It features Jerry Lee Lewis playing piano on the back of a truck.
Buddy Holly was out of Lubbock Texas, not Nashville.
I wish they released the uncut interviews, does anyone know if its anywhere?
Wait...this was actually in the Anthology documentary. How is this footage unused?
it's known as click bait
Actually I think these are outtakes because they told the same stories a little differently in the Anthology.
Unused Beatles Anthology Paul McCartney shirt
14:35 Not a bad Roy, Paul lol
McCartney owns buddy's catalogue
Love Paul
Ohh , George was smoking at a very young age .
Sadly.
"I'm not dying from cancer- I'm dying from smoking." GH quote
That contributed to his death unfortunately.
Can't. HELP. But Wonder. John. Had not. Been. Murdered ,got. Cancer? Was a notorious. Smoker. Too. Tried to quit. Lot. A. Times. But. Never. Did
Man, I love that steel grey hair Paul had for about 10 minutes!
Far too late now as he looks wonderful with white but I sure wish he would have done steel grey rather than the less flattering dark dye :( and the crewcut in the aughts was an absolute nightmare. Paul has always been a good looking man, but damn that 2nd wife was hell on his hair.
Nothing Beats the Beatles, except maybe Ringo's drums?
best drummer in the world
@@alnil5533 Arter Chollie the Rolling Stone
@@INDYOSKARS Never heard of him so he can't be that great like Ringo was
7:09 "and some other person on that bill was relieved of a guitar that day, I do believe" - that would have gone with the amp from Liverpool College of Art.
This is great
Why don't they put out stuff we don't have unreased stuff.
