kneal6 Posted November 12, 2007 Posted November 12, 2007 Heather Mills recently [url="http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio/aod/fivelive_aod.shtml?fivelive/heathermills"]went on BBC radio 5live[/url] and said some things about her relationship with Paul "the public wouldn't be able to handle". Now as many of you might know there's an ongoing theory that Paul died in 1966 and was replaced with a double. This is the time they all grew beards, and the same time they stopped touring. What I'd like to know specifically is: How do the basslines on post-'66 recordings compare to the ones from before? I've not got all the albums to compare, but I'm sure a lot of people on this board do and would have some insight. Sgt. Pepper is the first album that came out after he "died".

Cantdosleepy Posted November 12, 2007 Posted November 12, 2007 I came into my room last night to find Carol Kaye dressed in my clothes, playing my bass, recording straight into my laptop. I chased her out with a broom. Quote

I've always found Mac to be a bit on his own as a bassist, not that much like a bass player more like a singer playing a bass, tough to articulate what I mean really. Quote

jacko Posted November 12, 2007 Posted November 12, 2007 p.s. macca is a bloody good bass player. it's pretty hard playing his lines with conviction AND singing over them! Quote

He was very musical and melodic and I think if it was ever possible to hear a mix of the Beatles tunes without his basslines, you'd suddenly realise how good they are! As for Heather Mills, there aren't words that even come close to describing how superficial and phoney she appears to be.. How she can think that British people will have any sympathy with her I don't know? Macca's contribution to the world = writing some of the best and most popular songs of the 20th Century. Heather Mills contribution to the world = getting voted off an American Ballroom Dancing show and pissing off everybody who knows her, works with her or reads about her. No contest! Sorry for straying off topic but this kind of thing really infuriates me! Quote
Mobius Posted November 13, 2007 Posted November 13, 2007 Isn't that when he started DI'ing his bass instead of micing up his amp? Quote

Maybe that's where all the confusion started. John must've said to someone "My bass player DI'ed" and someone misreported this. Quote
