I think that the voice on "Yellow Submarine" matches the voice on "You're Sixteen, You're Beautiful, and You're Mine." He has a pleasant, whimsical, and deep voice. I think Ringo possess ( and showed it in HDN) a very stable, personable aura. He seems to be a bloody well adjusted chap to me.

"With a Little Help From My Friends" has always sounded exactly like Ringo to me. Why does everyone say otherwise? |

To me it sounds just like Ringo. I'm guessing that it is attributed to Faul because it fits the story line so well. As the album opens, Billy Shears is introduced. Here's this new guy trying to pass, hoping he'll be accepted by the audience and of course being helped a lot by his friends.

I think a voice analysis showed that it is actually Billy imitating Ringo!  |

Oh, c'mon...  I don't see why they would have had Faul imitate Ringo... that voice analysis claim you remember was most likely bogus. Whoever came up with that was probably an Illuminati grunt just spreading around misinformation to reduce the overall credibility of the genuine anomalies people are discovering. My ears hear Ringo. If that's Faul singing "WALHFMF," then his Ringo imitation is ten times better than his Paul imitation! It is true that the "Billy Shears" character represents Faul. But that doesn't mean the song is sung by Faul. The Beatles were trying to get everyone to think a little deeper by setting up a multi-layered mystery. We now already know that just because they had us believe, on the surface, that Faul was Paul, certainly didn't mean it was so. Taking it further-- just because the clues they gave us were "Paul Is Dead" clues does not mean that Paul had died; something else could have happened, and the "PID" clues could have been designed as the next, but not final, layer of the mystery. So, just because the singer of "WALHFMF" is introduced in "SPLHCB" as "the one and only Billy Shears" does not mean that the singer is Billy Shears! I appreciate that you've done so much research to help this forum along, PB, but please be careful what you post from it-- you've got alot of influence here, and I know you don't want to hurt the overall perceived credibility of what is discussed here!  |

Soon a 1-2 2-1 comparison on line. Stay in tune....Scatterdome.  BTW Is your theory only to justify the "good" quality of "Band On The Run"? "Good" quality? Before Faul's live concert in Rome I didn't know that weird song....TG! The one and only "good" Faul's era song? "My Love". Stop. Nothing else. And ....the structure is very similiar to "Strawberry Fields Forever" then... |

Come on, Sun King...
"Band on the Run" is a masterpiece, and I mean the whole album, not just the song.
"Mrs. Vandebilt", "Let me roll it", "1985", "Jet", they're all great. "Band on the Run" is an amazing three-songs in one. And the production of the record is inmaculate.

I was talking not about me....but the 500.000 people staying with me attending the concert. Here in Italy few, very few know "Band On The Run". But everybody knows "Eleanor Rigby" Why? |

Well, then they probably didn't know "Let'em in", "Every night" or "Coming up". Any serious rock-music lover should know "Band on the Run", for sure.
"Band on The Run" is as good as many Beatles albums, at least for me.

Soon a 1-2 2-1 comparison on line. Stay in tune....Scatterdome. Please tell me you're not talking about something trying to prove that Faul sang "With A Little Help From My Friends." Circulation of that dubious idea could only hurt the overall perceived credibility of the discussions here... BTW Is your theory only to justify the "good" quality of "Band On The Run"? "Good" quality? Before Faul's live concert in Rome I didn't know that weird song....TG! The one and only "good" Faul's era song? "My Love". Stop. Nothing else. And ....the structure is very similiar to "Strawberry Fields Forever" then... For a while I wasn't sure how to respond to this, SK... at first, I thought you were actually asking if my only justification of my theory is my opinion that the Band On The Run album is great. (Your post confused me... obviously I don't think that, otherwise my theory wouldn't take up several pages.) Then, I remembered that English isn't your first language! What a relief... I thought I was going to have to write another essay to respond!  I think that the Ram and Band On The Run albums are great albums, on par with much of the material that Faul sang with the Beatles. To my ears, there is an unbroken forward development of James Paul's unique songwriting style from the first Beatles album, through "Fool On The Hill" (a song about Faul and Paul, and one of the top 5 Beatles songs most often covered by classical musicians, the other 4 being confirmed James Paul songs) all the way through Band On The Run. Through that album (which contains a song called "Picasso's Last Words") the quality level does not diminish, in my opinion, although it falters a little with the Wild Life and Red Rose Speedway, when I think James Paul first attempted to give Faul "wings," I think he came back to mastermind one more album for Faul, who he no longer wanted to work with after that, knowing by then that Faul had joined the Illuminati. (I have not heard the first Klaatu album from '76... if James Paul didn't die in '66 or '73, perhaps Klaatu was James Paul's primary songwriting outlet after he stopped working with Faul full-time? Maybe the infamous "Beatle reunion" rumours preceding the Klaatu album's release were half-true after all, if it was actually James Paul reuniting with his original choice for a "Faul," Terry Draper/"Day Tripper." Has anyone here heard the first Klaatu album? I would be curious to know if it's any good, and if there are lyrical and musical themes that sound like a follow-up to Band On The Run...) Anyway, my opinion of the songs Faul sung up through Band On The Run is only one of the many factors that make my overall alternate theory seem plausible to me. |
