Well we already know Paul died and was replaced, so it's not like it's still a "mystery". I have looked over the Klaatu lyrics extensively and I still don't know what to make of them.

I don't know if you are aware of the life of Terry Draper. You can find it here: www.acmi.canoe.ca/JamMusicPopEncycloPagesD/draper.html#photosBut I'll just quote the start: " Born and raised in Toronto, Ontario, singer, songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, engineer and producer Terry Draper got his start in the Toronto music scene more than 30 years ago playing drums in various R & B bands including The Innocence Of Virgil Scott starting in 1966. Years of floundering in the Toronto music scene led Draper to a life in Yorkville during the hippie revolution.
As drummer he found his options limited and a close friend gave him a guitar, three chords to start with and told him to play it. After an early appearance by Led Zeppelin at Toronto's Rockpile and a chance meeting with Jimi Hendrix in the late '60's, Draper realized that being a musician for a living was a definite must.
Draper would eventually hook up with highs school pal John Woloschuk to form Whitemail with another Toronto area kid, Dee Long (Polychromatic Experience, Bloodstone). That band would mutate into Mudcow with Jamie Bridgman in 1971, but by the end of 1972 the group had split and the members went their separate ways. Draper would get a day gig working in the 7" singles department at Sam The Record Man in downtown Toronto. " Ontario... isn't it interesting?

Apollo has a point, you guys could have missed something in the Klaatu albums.
Also, as a word of warning, voice prints are not exactly correct tests. They do not verify conclusively, they only give forth opinions based on the similarity or lack thereof between the voices that might not exactly be true ones.

I've been thinking about the famous OPD badge Faul wears on Pepper's.. Well, we know that it really is OPP, Ontario Provincial Police. Until now, we've always considered that it means that Faul is an ex-policeman from Ontario. Consider the Klaatu album clues, we can accept that they point to the Beatles in many ways, and after comparing Terry Draper's voice and "Paul"'s, it seems possible that Draper sung on some of the Beatles tunes after Paul's demise. We also know that Terry is from Ontario. We also have some other clues, like the line in "She came in through the bathroom window" where Fal says "And so I quit the police department and got myself a steady job", or even the interview where joking John says that if not a musician Paul would have been a policeman, and some more, wich point that Faul was a policeman. So, let's go back to the OPP badge. We have always thought it was about one person. What if it was about two? "Ontario Province" points to Draper, and "Provincial Police" points to Faul, whoever he is. OPP was a clue about Paul's replacement, but since he was replaced for two people, it was in fac a double clue ! Believe me, if we could match these two guys: we would surely have it !

Ok, clearly I am late to the game on this thread, but I tip my hat to whoever posted the Klaatu link. I've been following all the links from that and I had never heard the following:
" The words "Abaddon" and "Apollyon" mean "destroyer" and it's rather ironic that Paul McCartney used the pseudonym "Apollo C. Vermouth" when he produced the song Urban Spaceman for Bonzo Dog Band in 1967."
So a tip of the hat to you as well Apollo. As I see his posts, they are from one who was around when the rumors originally started by word of mouth in the late sixities and, like me, he is watching people discover stuff for the first time -- which is basically what I am doing. It is much more fun to get a clue to a clue and have to discover it yourself then have it all spoon fed to you.
Thanks to all who brought me forward over 35 years only to land me right back where I started. I am enjoying this.
Brie

Also, as a word of warning, voice prints are not exactly correct tests. They do not verify conclusively, they only give forth opinions based on the similarity or lack thereof between the voices that might not exactly be true ones. well, unless he got his vocal chords taken out... i think his voice will be pretty much the same. SLIGHT changes, but still you should be able to tell. i mean, when my friends call, i can tell its their voice, even if its a few years appart. i cant say 30, because im barely 16, but who cares! even my dad who loves the beatles turned to me and asked "whos singing this, it sounds scottish." when "when im 64" came on. strange, isnt it?

Tones of pictures of the actual Terry Draper at www.klaatu.org/gallery/bradley/Maybe one of them can be used for comparison. Let me point, anyway, that it will be clarifying if they match, but it won't mean anything if they don't.

The story unfolds before your eyes and ears for those that connect the dots. Many of you see things that are not there. Much energy spent on ghosts that fail to materialize. Questions asked that lay unanswered which will add a crucial piece of the puzzle. Too many people doing too many things to notice the key that lies at your feet. Get back to the basics. Tread old ground, for there are truly flowers in the dirt. Apollo Friends, this guy really seems to know the truth. Apollo, please tell us more...

Consider this, folks! Let's suppose Apollo is an insider! Would he/she steer you in the right direction? Would he/she give away the keys to the bank? Somehow, I think not!

Yes guys,
the face in the picture is Neil Aspinall's, not Terry's.
In fact Terry was born in 1951, he was 17 when the White Album was published.

Could be, but he looks a lot like Neil Aspinall.
In fact, I've read that the collage was compilled by Neil and Mal Evans.
