Sounds and acts a bit like Paul but doesn’t look anything like him! Apart from that, they’re passable for Beatles.

Just finished Carlin’s “Paul McCartney: A Life.” As a huge McCartney/Beatles fan who has read - dare I say - every major book on The Beatles and McCartney starting with Hunter Davies on up to McCartney’s official “Many Years From Now” bio - I believe Carlin has done the best job of anyone in capturing the real Sir Paul.

Comment on Mono vs Stereo by Carlos

There’s a strange mono release of Abbey Road and Let it Be, those are Brazilian editions, but it is only folded, I’ve been trying to get a list about all the differences in mono and stereo versions of the Beatles’ songs, because there are many of them, I’ll mention some:
PLEASE PLEASE ME
Stereo. John’s mistake in the last verse
Mono. No mistake

THANK YOU GIRL
Stereo: extra harmonic
Mono: Without that extra harmonic

IF I FELL
Stereo: John’s voice overdubbed
Mono: No overdubs

HELTER SKELTER
Stereo: fades out and fades in and “got blisters on my fingers”
Mono: Just fades out

HONEY PIE
Stereo: No guitar in the bridge
Mono: Extra guitar in the bridge

PIGGIES
Different pig noises

AND I LOVE HER
Stereo and mono (England): Paul’s voice overdubbed
Mono (Capitol): No overdubbs

etc,

I’ll add more songs later, I’m in a hurry right now, and if you don’t mind, let’s try to make a complete list about the different versions of the songs in mono and stereo

Thanks for clarification about Abbey Road, Peter. The Beatles were actually very interested in stereo technology (as Paul McCartney often said) but didn’t switch completely until it became the main one.

There’s no mono mix of either Abbey Road or Let It Be, and you’re right, the Beatles focused mostly on the mono version of their LPs until they made the switch to stereo.
