PAUL WRITES TO THE MM
Who does Paul McCartney think he is?
We don’t see anything of him for a year, and then out he pops from his mysterious hermit like existence, advertising his new record in a publicity-crazed manner. Does he really think we’ll believe he played all the instruments? Let’s face it Mailbag, we’re not suckers. It’s obvious George Martin had a lot to do with it. In fact, if you listen carefully to the end of the third track played backwards, you can almost hear him whistling.
