Paul McCartney

Because I checked, there's about 350 million people there.

So if we could break into America, Chuds, just like Paul McCartney and the Beatles did, we've got no worries.

Right, how are you, my love? Good? Yeah, very good.

Should we go to the next thing then? Yes, post it for a punt.

Although I also get a little bit of an impression that maybe like a lot of the lines in there were taken more just because they sounded good in context rather than having any great meaning to them.

He is the foe of Paul McCartney, you know.

Just sounded good.

The images in your head, you know, goes together, sounds

John Lennon and Yoko Ono released another two.

And then in 1970, Ringo Starr and Paul McCartney released their albums a couple months apart.

So that was the official order for the Beatles.

In 1970, the Grateful Dead released American Beauty, which is a folk rock classic.

I think that's when we first met.

when I was a guest that's where we met yeah guest on the Colbert report yeah I didn't know you were in the green room and I came in and tried to steal some of your snacks and you caught me that's not gonna happen yeah that's not gonna happen and uh and yeah and I have a podcast called Inside Out which you've been on and Paul McCartney and Stephen Colbert and a whole bunch of cool people so uh yeah okay so

just to be clear the title of your podcast is Inside Out with Paul

McCartney yes it is yeah no Yeah, I should put my own name in there.

now he's like one of the top tier Nashville guys.

He plays on McCartney records and everything.

I saw him a couple years ago.

I did a concert.

They're definitely a local band that played very few shows and, A lot in the studio, not much success even in their town.

But then also you get to interject these names like Stacks and Chris eventually ran into Paul McCartney when they went overseas.

So there's definitely stuff weaved throughout it where it's almost this like Forrest Gump thing where Chris Bell is there and he just happens to be standing next to some icon.

because he's you know chris is working on his weird uh kind of warped indie stuff in one room and then there's people cutting hits in the next room

And, um, this one, this is another grower like years ago.

This was, um, one of my least favorite songs on the record just because it has this weird kind of like funky 70s kind of song you know uh you know bounce to it

i said it sounds like a like a like a deep deep cut on a paul mccartney album like yeah that exactly oh let's just like take a weird left turn let's do something odd let's get you know let's get a little hokey let's get kind of you know whatever Well, it's

the most Alex Chilton-y Chris Bell song because it's so, it's in that big star third, like flies on Sherbert.

It literally just brought a chill to me because I'm not saying I'm not scared of it, but good Lord, it was creepy.

And the godfather of the back mass would be the Beatles with the great conspiracy theory that, you know, Paul McCartney died in a car crash and they replaced him and we left a bunch of clues in our music and it was...

What a time to be alive.

What a time, what a time.

Robert Redford, I think.

Paul McCartney, I'd put in that category.

I think that there are people who find their...

And even, you know, in fact, it's something we're sort of looking for on every episode.

there? All venues always under pressure.

Yeah, and I think Paul McCartney and a few other guys, they all got together and...

There was a bit of a campaign, weren't there, to save it, and it seems to have worked.

It's
