“How Lucky Was I, To Have Those Men In My Life?”

The Beatles - “Day Tripper” (1965)

"McCartney realised he was sitting at his father's old piano, which he used to compose tracks for Memory Almost Full, as Sgt. Pepper took off. And his piano stool was extra special too. He says, "It's a little stool that my kids gave me, which was John's stool. They found it at an auction. I've got it sitting in front of my dad's old piano."

John and Paul quoting their lines from A Hard Day’s Night while hanging around in the Twickenham studio.

“Cynthia Lennon is a goddess, you know. Paul is a god. Aren’t I lucky to have such a religion?”

ULM vol. 3 is back on YT - with some additions!

These are the additions I noticed:

John's statement about George (I think from Lennon Remembers) that he wouldn't buy his album, that ATMP means nothing to him, and that George should be grateful that he could learn from John and Paul.

The addiction of John and Linda's performance of "Love in strange" in the background when the song "Bless you" sounded with the line: "Love is strange".

Excerpt from a 1975 interview with John in which he says he wonders what Paul thought of his performance of "I Saw Her Standing There" at Madison Square Garden.

The questionnaire, in which John described Paul as extraordinary, Bowie as thin etc., was supplemented with pictures.

The ending (which kinda broke my heart).
