“I’d give you everything I’ve got for a little peace of mind!”

Outra versão da mesma música, também roubada do Vinícius, agora cantada pelo Paul.

Pega o cavaquinho, Paul McCartney

Haja muito tempo livre…

Dave Grohl e Paul McCartney

Dave também passou pela mesma sabatina que Jack White – e teve de cantar uma música de Paul McCartney na frente do próprio, na apresentação em homenagem ao beatle na Casa Branca. Na platéia, além do Paul, Obama e Stevie Wonder, entre outros. E Grohl escolheu o épico “Band on the Run”, que já tinha gravado em na coletânea em homenagem aos 40 anos da rádio BBC 1, lançada em 2007.

McCartney (1970): “Every Night”

“Every Night” é demais.

“This came from the first two lines which I’ve had for a few years. They were added to in 1969 in Greece (Benitses) on holiday. This was recorded at EMI with” -McCartney 1970
1 vocal and
2 acoustic guitar
3 drums
4 bass
5 lead guitar (acoustic)
6 harmony to the lead guitar
7 double tracked vocal in parts
8 ? electric guitar (not used)

McCartney (1970): “Hot as Sun/Glasses”

“A song written in about 1958 or 9 or maybe earlier when it was one of those songs that you play now and then. The middle was added in Morgan Studio where the track was recorded recently.” -McCartney 1970
1 acoustic guitar
2 electric guitar
3 drums
4 rhythm guitar
5 organ
6 maracas
7 bass
8 bongos

A faixa também foi gravada pelos Beatles, em tom jocoso, no meio das sessões do Let it Be.

Instrumental, “Hot as Sun” ainda foi usada nos anos 80 como música-tema do programa The All-New Popeye Hour, safra de desenhos do Popeye feita naquela década. Detalhe: a versão para TV era tocada em 45 RPM – e soava assim:

No finzinho, “Hot as Sun” virava a experimental “Glasses”:

“Wine glasses played at random and overdubbed on top of each other – the end is a section of a song called Suicide – not yet completed.” -McCartney 1970

E, no final, surgia um trecho minúsculo de uma canção que Paul fez aos 14 anos, chamada “Suicide” (já já falo mais dela).

McCartney (1970): “Junk”

Outra música linda:

“Junk” foi composta em 1968, quando os Beatles fizeram seu retiro na Índia, e iria entrar no Álbum Branco com o título de “Jubilee”.

“Originally written in India at Maharishi’s camp and completed bit by bit in London. Recorded vocal, two acoustic guitars and bass at home and later added to (bass drum,snare with brushes,and small xylophone and harmony) at Morgan.” -McCartney 1970

McCartney (1970): “Man We Was Lonely”

“The chorus (“Man We Was Lonely”) was written in bed at home shortly before we finished recording the album. The middle (“I used to ride…”) was done one lunchtime in a great hurry as we were due to record the song that afternoon. Linda sings harmony on this song which is our first duet together. The steel guitar sound is my Telecaster played with a drum peg.” -McCartney 1970
1 guitar
2 voices (two tracks)
3 bass drum
4 bass
5 steel guitar

McCartney (1970): “Oo You”

É a primeira do lado B:

“The first three tracks were recorded at home as an instrumental that might someday become a song. This, like Man We Was Lonely, was given lyrics one day after lunch just before we left for Morgan Studios, where it was finished that afternoon. Vocals, electric guitar, tambourine, cow bell and aerosol spray were added at Morgan and it was mixed there. On the mix, tape echo was used to move feedback from guitar from one side to another.” -McCartney 1970
