... McCartney:

https://www.theguardian.com/books/2021/aug/23/paul-mccartney-to-reveal-unseen-beatles-lyrics-in-new-book

Citando:

"Paul McCartney will include the previously unseen lyrics to an unrecorded Beatles song in his forthcoming book The Lyrics.

On Monday, the former Beatle revealed the 154 songs to feature in the book, which will be based on conversations McCartney had with the poet Paul Muldoon. Described as a “self-portrait in 154 songs”, The Lyrics will feature songs from throughout McCartney’s career, including Blackbird, Live and Let Die, Hey Jude, Band on the Run and Yesterday."

Quoting:

"Paul, being the sensible one, had packed a camping stove and a can of rice pudding. “Ambrosia,” confided McCartney to his interviewer, music producer and Beatles superfan Rick Rubin, who, being American, hid bewilderment at this dismal 63-year-old English tragical mystery tour behind a polite rictus."

2021-08: A receita de sopa de lentilhas de...

Paul McCartney nos créditos finais de um episódio dos Simpsons. Invertida? 

Sim:

https://www.cbr.com/simpsons-end-credits-paul-mccartney-lentil-soup-recipe/

Citando:

"When played in reverse, the strange mumbling reveals as McCartney reciting his lentil soup recipe. Some ingredients include one medium onion chopped, two tablespoons vegetable oil and one clove garlic crushed. The end of the recipe also features a small line where McCartney states, “By the way, I’m alive.” The line references a 1966 conspiracy in which Paul was supposedly killed in a car accident and replaced with a lookalike.

The Simpsons always finds a way to keep things fresh for its fans after decades of episodes. But it's Easter eggs like Paul McCartney's recipe that show just how many surprises are littered throughout the series. However, it's hard to say how many more are still hiding in plain sight with so many episodes."

2021-08: Último irmão dos Everly Brothers morreu

Os Everly Brothers serão uma influência declarada de Paul McCartney. Em 1984 gravaram uma versão de uma música de Paul McCartney que os colocou no top da Billboard pela última vez...

Se se ouvir com atenção, as harmonias de voz dos Beatles têm muito a ver com estas músicas.

E o excelente "All I Have to do is Dream":

Quoting:

"In a 1986 interview with the Associated Press news agency, Don Everly said the two were successful because "we never followed trends".

"We did what we liked and followed our instincts. Rock 'n' roll did survive, and we were right about that. Country did survive, and we were right about that. You can mix the two but people said we couldn't," he said.

The Everly Brothers were elected to the Rock 'n' Roll Hall of Fame in its first year, 1986, and they were given a lifetime achievement award at the Grammys in 1997.

Rolling Stone magazine has described them as "the most important vocal duo in rock".

Phil Everly died of pulmonary disease in 2014, aged 74."
