I just love this conspiracy theory! But I also think this was a very clever yet morbid joke which all of the Beatles were in on, including the management. Good for business!
Of course, he never made any decent music after his 'death'..

I beg to defer: the b-side of Abbey Road is (almost) entirely written by Paul McCartney and belongs to the best of the Beatles. From his solo career, I believe Band on the Run is not the worst of all Beatle solo projects, although, indeed, John's projects were more interesting.

I hate the Beatles. Anywhere I may be in the world I just can't escape them. My hatred is irrational and the result of being force-fed them from the day I was born. I fully accept and know this, but it doesn't change the fact that I despise them so much.

Count your blessings: my father was chairman of the Christian Oratory Choir Johann Sebastian Bach. I still have nightmares when I hear the Matthäus Passion. Starting to love the Beatles was, for me, like rescuing my life.

Sure, I agree, but that album appeared so soon after his alledged death, it would (according to the conspiracy-lovers, have been writtenby the 'original'. Big Grin

.Yup. And let's NOT talk about 'Mull o'Kintyre' and stuff like that.

But if it's the original or the copy - who cares? Not him - he's making millions from his music..

Oh that would be a good one! :twisted: The family of the 'original' sueing the 'copy' for the rights to the music!!! Big Grin

I am afraid that this is the decisive argument against the conspiracy theory. If Paul's dead, they would have sued already. :wink:

Ah, but look at the money he's still making! Maybe they're just waiting for more to be raked in... Big Grin
