the making of liverpool oratorio documentary is literally just paul in an alternate universe where he’s a divorced gay middle-aged english teacher turned classical composer and music director

#someone needs to write a fic tbh #there are so many other little moments i loved from the documentary (particularly where he talks about his parents and the other beatles) #might make another little compilation to get them all in #paul mccartney #the beatles #mclennon #liverpool oratorio #beatles

It’s been years, and I’m still trying to figure out how it went from this:

(September 20, 1969 Meeting)

Then we were discussing something in the office with Paul and Paul was saying to do something, and I kept saying, ‘No, no, no’ to everything he said. So it came to a point that I had to say something. So I said, ‘The group’s over, I’m leaving.’ Allen was there, and he was saying, ‘Don’t tell.’ He didn’t want me to tell Paul even. But I couldn’t help it, I couldn’t stop it, it came out.

— John Lennon, Lennon Remembers, 1970

I’d said: ‘I think we should go back to little gigs – I really think we’re a great little band. We should find our basic roots, and then who knows what will happen? We may want to fold after that, or we may really think we’ve still got it.’ John looked at me in the eye and said: ‘Well, I think you’re daft. I wasn’t going to tell you till we signed the Capitol deal’ – Klein was trying to get us to sign a new deal with the record company – ‘but I’m leaving the group!’ We paled visibly and our jaws slackened a bit.

— Paul McCartney, The Beatles Anthology, 2000

So everyone went, “Gulp!” The weight was dropped, our jaws dropped along with it, everyone blanched except John, who coloured a little and said, “It’s rather exciting. It’s like I remember telling Cynthia I wanted a divorce.”

— Paul McCartney, From “Many Years From Now” by Barry Miles, 1997

To this:

Why do you think he [Paul] has lost interest in Apple?

That’s what I want to ask him! We had a heavy scene last year as far as business was concerned and Paul got a bit fed-up with all the effort of business. I think that’s all it is. I hope so.

— John Lennon interviewed by Roy Shipston for Disc and Music Echo (February 28, 1970)

INT: I asked Lee Eastman for his view of the split, and what it was that prompted Paul to file suit to dissolve the Beatles' partnership, and he said it was because John asked for a divorce.

JOHN: Because I asked for a divorce? That's a childish reason for going into court, isn't it?

— John Lennon interviewed by Peter McCabe and Robert Schonfeld at the St. Regis Hotel, September 5, 1971

#(In the span of like a year) #(Like I’m in confusion) #(Do we want the divorce or don’t we? LOL.) #John Lennon #Paul McCartney #Lennon/McCartney #The Beatles #(“We’re playing those MIIIND GAAMES together”) #(There was never a dull moment with these two) #1969 #1970s

Paul McCartney doesn’t stroke hands with guys: a study

#in his defense #he’s not actually stroking hands in any of these #so maybe the full context is ‘you don’t stroke hands with guys...’ #‘...you sit on their laps and kiss them but you don’t stroke hands’ #or something #poor george #having to deal with paul’s gay crisis even on his deathbed #apologies for my crappy editing but it seems to fit with the strength of paul’s argument #and yes I know there’s loads more moments I could have used but we’d have been here for hours #paul mccartney #john and paul #ringo starr #the beatles #mclennon #javelin’s vids #javelin studies #javelin’s edit

Sir Joseph Lockwood

I always got on particularly well with Joe, I liked him a lot. I think he was a very clever man and found him a very charming bloke with a sense of humour. So it never got heavy with Joe. He always had his young personal-assistant guy with him, very charming. It was unusual for us, who'd not seen the head of a big company like that that at close hand; with a private life, just to the side of it all. You were seeing power in high places.

Paul talking about Sir Joseph Lockwood in Many Years From Now (emphasis mine)

The "young personal-assistant guy" (William Cavendish) has written a book. All the official materials refer to him as a "good friend" of Sir Joe, but it seems very clear that they were life partners. (As Paul hinted).

Anyway I thought that was interesting context for Joe's comments about the cover of Two Virgins:

Well, then, why not show Paul in the nude? He’s so much prettier!

The page in Many Years From Now:

#though as we all know #gay men aren't attracted to paul mccartney #*cough* #h/t to the-paper-apricot who's not online much at the moment but is still bringing interesting things to my attention

“Lives on a farm, got plenty of charm, beep, beep.

He's got no cows but he's sure got a whole lotta sheep.

And brand new wife and a family,

And when he comes to town,

I wonder if he'll play with me.”

//

“As a person I can’t help but love ‘im [Paul], I really can’t. He’s very important to me.”

//

“At Ringo’s wedding, I happened to go to the toilet, and I met Ringo there, at the same time, just the two of us. He said there were two times in his life in which I had done him in. He said that he’d done himself in three times. I happened to be spitting something out, and by chance the spit fell on his jacket. I said there you go, now I’ve done you three times. We’re equal. I laughed it off. It was all affectionate. It wasn’t a row. It wasn’t slagging off. He just suddenly said it, and we moved on. But NOW, I keep thinking all the time, what are the two times that Ringo thinks I put him down…”
