OK then. Look up Tavistock's involvement in creating the Beatles. Just for chuckles.

Been there, seen it. Doesn't diminish the music or their talent. I also believe OG Paul was gone in '66.

Paul died, creatively speaking, with the production and release of "Silly Love Songs" in 1976.

The death knell heard round the world.

The Paul we have now looks like an old lesbian. LOL.

Plato wrote that the introduction of a new from of music was a very big deal - one that could destroy a culture. Rock is the music of impulse and sexuality. Dionysius unbound. Our culture was Apollonian, but that dying now because of Rock and its successors, Rap and Hip Hop. They're even beginning to integrate Country. We're not even allowed to have our own Dionysian culture, be it traditional or new. Rock didn't die - it was simply replaced.

Except Rap is not music. Anyone listening to it unless deaf dumb and blind can hear the dystopian demonic disgusting lyrics.

I just don't believe that a group of uneducated teenagers into hanging out in taverns could write 200+ brilliant songs in the space of a couple of years. But that's me.

The current Paul is an imposter? They replaced Sister Lucia too.

No, a car accident in '66. Look closely at pictures after that you can see the differences. Billy Shears as FAUL. Who is sister Lucia?
