>Paul’s not a genius
This post feels like shallow, Malcolm Gladwellish, wrap-a-simple-idea-with-a-random-narrative stuff.
Paul McCartney might be the greatest pop musician/songwriter of the 20th century. Some (most?) of his best works were performed after the Beatles. If he's not a genius, then no musician is a genius.
- golemotron 5y agoExactly.
- abbub 5y agoNot only all of the above, but for Paul in particular, a genius who was in the midst of one of the largest creative highs of his entire career. I mean, some of the snippets of ‘half-baked’ songs he plays are songs that will figure well into his solo/Wings career. I honestly don’t know how you can come out of watching Get Back with anything other than admiration for human creativity as personified by Paul McCartney during this amazing month that got captured on film.
- randoglando 5y agoIt's because it fits his narrative for the book he's selling ("Creativity").
