Another excellent rendition, Sir Francesco! You've got me playing along with favorites I haven't touched in decades. AND finding the notes I left behind. :D Grazie!

Francesco, excellente'! I'm reading the Geoff Emerick book at the moment, and very much appreciating McCartney's perfectionisms. You do it a wonderful justice in an effortless fashion! I've enjoyed all of your clips over the few years and Im sure many would agree that you bring us together on some levels!

I have to venture down to this section of the forum more often. That was fun. ! Bravo Francesco!

Is it true that Paul did the paint job on the Rick the night before the "All You Need is Love" broadcast?

I have a photo of Paul during "Pepper" in Feb. '67, and AYNIL was June 25, '67, so no.

Thats the way to do it, Jake! :mrgreen:
