There are many secrets to the Beatles' success, many anecdotes and theories. A common one is that Paul, playing his guitar left-handed instead of right-handed, could more easily lock faces with John as they sang their amazing harmonies. The Beatles were particularly adept at this whenever Paul would use the same microphone as John, which produced a visual effect that drove fans wild and that most other groups couldn't imitate. Watching every concert on the Beatles' North American tour, I marveled at the two of them, face to face, their guitars out of the way, looking like they were about to swallow the shared microphone.

John Lennon reads the weather for Larry Kane as part of the Helping Hand Marathon on Channel 6 News in Philadelphia, 16th May 1975 (x)
"I told him that we were doing a Helping Hand Marathon at the radio station and at the television station where I worked, Channel 6 in Philadelphia at the time, and I said 'come on down'. And he said 'I'm gonna do it'. And I was so stunned to greet him at 30th Street Station, the main train station in Philadelphia, walking off an Amtrack train, with a little overnight, like a gym bag with him. And he was saying goodbye to everybody and he came out, he gave me a big hug, and I took him around town, talked about being more popular than he was, and all that business..."
"He did hours and hours from Friday through Sunday, on the air at this marathon. And then on Friday night, an amazing thing happened... John comes into the studio, and the weatherman was off that night, and John says 'can I do the weather?'."
"Now, it wasn't a great weather forecast, in fact I think we brought in somebody to do the weather after he was finished, I don't remember, but he was on set with me, and that weathercast brought thousands of people to the station over the weekend, because people said, 'he's really there!'... and you know what I found out? That in that weekend, John Lennon met more people one-on-one than at any time in his entire life, being shielded by security, and all the concerts and everything else. And he told me later, he said, 'you know I met more people individually'... he probably met a thousand or two thousand people up close, signed autographs, gave his socks away... they were pretty smelly socks, but he gave his socks away, they were red, white and blue socks... auctioned them off, gave pictures away, just had this great interaction with people"
"And it was such an up for him, because he had come off of the 'lost weekend', he had suffered tremendous alcohol abuse, May Pang had helped get him back on his feet, he was back with Yoko, she was pregnant, he was expecting a child, and this was his first real coming out, and it was just such a wonderful thing to see him enjoy that, and to see the people enjoy that... there are so many teenagers that I interviewed who are now forty- or fifty-somethings, who have great memories of that weekend."

[Ron] Ellis is a keen observer. A man who understands the nuances of human behavior, he was, even as a young man, fascinated by the dressing-room behavior of artists, which in the case of the 1963 Beatles was telling. He saw them backstage twice: once in Southport and then at the Odeon in Liverpool for the group's triumphant Christmas concert in December 1963. It was there that he finally delivered the records [which they had previously ordered] to John, George, and Ringo. "And when I went in, they were all in the dressing room and Paul McCartney was mincing about, imitating Brian Epstein, "Oh, 'ello Brian," and this sort of thing, taking the piss out of him. George was a quiet person; John was very pleased to get his records; Ringo was, well, let me tell you what happened. Billy J. Kramer and the Dakotas were on the bill at the time and they'd hidden Ringo's polo sweater. And they made him crawl around the room and beg before they'd give it back to him." "They... liked him?" I ask. "Oh yeah, they were just joking with him, you know? So I looked at McCartney and I thought, "This is somebody who's on a different level." John was in it, you know, for the laughs and the music and the birds and everything. Ringo was enjoying the ride... he was lucky; suddenly he'd a national star, you know? John loved all the music and fun, but you felt McCartney's on a different level here - he's a businessman, playing as a musician. That's the impression I got. He was very supercilious. I think he can see the big picture. He can see what's going to happen to the Beatles, and he wants to be in there making sure he controls it." (...) The sense of Paul's quiet ambition and manipulative powers were shared by both Beatles press officers, Derek Taylor and Tony Barrow, who play a pivotal role later in this saga. But my own dressing-room experiences, in 1964, were different. Paul never grimaced in my presence. In fact, he 'cracked up' at some of my questions. He did, by his comportment, show an aversion to any sort of controversy. He treated Epstein with respect in public, but privately complained to John whenever he believed Epstein was too controlling.
