Also their life, for better or worse. Many of us have absorbed these details and are no worse off knowing what happened during those turbulent, socially and artistically seismic years. If you feel bad about eating the cheeseburger knowing you've killed the cow to feast on the personal aspects of the lives of others, probably better to look away in the first place.
When the book was first published, nobody knew what was going to be disclosed. Do we look the other way for every book ever written on anything? Libraries and bookshops would be empty. To like or dislike what we've read is equally valid. Body Count had a few insights into Paul but overall her book was self-serving.
"Nor sure about Peggy, but I sort of got the impression that Paul didn't really like Francie that much. It's life." Paul didn't like himself all that much in that time frame. A lot of people were used and discarded until better sense prevailed, he found someone he liked on a real, regular basis, and he started to grow up.
Oh, someone definitely knew what was going to be disclosed in Francie's book. The publisher, that's who. The only reason she got a book deal is bc she agreed to pen a sleazy Tell All trash book. To look (or not look) the other way has nothing to do with this at all. Francie's book. Albert Goldman's book on John. Both garbage.
These appear to be the June 4th session in Studio Three in which John recorded his vocal on the floor and Paul played organ.
ReplyDeleteAlso, is that Dennis O'Dell in the background of photo #3 (behind George)?
ReplyDeleteYes it is. (MarkZapp)
DeleteIs that Francie in the first photo?
ReplyDeleteyes
Deleteschwartz wasn't the only rubbish book re paul; peggy lipton's tell all was garbage too
ReplyDeleteAnother person's life isn't garbage. Paul liked each of these women well enough to spend time with them, though not on a serious basis.
Deleteit was Paul's intimate life they wrote about - no class
DeleteAnd we read about that part of Paul's life. So what does that make us as people who absorb all these details?
Deletemeet Paul for REAL lol
