Their performance later that day was their first US concert, coming two days after their first appearance on the Ed Sullivan TV Show. The band traveled from New York to Washington, DC by rail earlier that day, after an East Coast snowstorm had caused all flights to be cancelled.

Mark Lewisohn understanding Paul McCartney

Only Mark Lewisohn really understands the Beatles. Only he can comprehend their true motivations. Only he can see behind their veneers. Especially Paul McCartney's. He truly understands Paul.

I cut down this clip from an amazing new interview of Lewisohn repeating how if he doesn't write his books the Beatles' story will be “wrong forever” to just the bit where he says “it's only through my immersion in [the Beatles] that I can comprehend at least nearly right.” This is our thesis statement. 😏

“It's a drag”

Lewisohn: “I'm quite an astute watcher of Paul McCartney,” and so I know that his “It's a drag” line after John's murder was all about Paul's irritation at John Lennon's lionization. “John was being promoted and Paul was being relegated, and he didn't like it.”

Paul doesn't say his last name on the phone because he wants to screw with you and put you on the back foot. And definitely not because he just figures you'll know who he is.

(I've posted this one before, but it is needed here, with Lewisohn claiming he's the only one who can truly understand the Beatles and Paul.)

#if you tilt your head and squint then you can sorta see what he's saying #who among us has not been annoyed with someone else's beatles interpretation #what makes marky mark weird is that he's so hostile about it #why not engage in dialogue with other beatle fans/historians and converse with them #a meeting of the minds #why be this weird and hostile abt it #speaks to an inner insecurity where he uses beatles as a pretext to be hostile towards acceptable targets #its all displacement for a deeper inner wound
