Paul was a slave driver in the end. I am glad he was though. I’m not sure that the group would have actually finished the last 3 albums if he had not pushed them to record the songs. John kind of check out somewhere after Sgt Pepper.
This sums it up pretty good makeshift. May I add that when Brian Epstein died and they decided to keep going John in hind site said he was nervous about it. John stated that he knew dang well the Beaters were good at making music but knew nothing about the buisness aspect. He knew he didn't want to do another sgt peppers album he wanted to do more rock. He was using drugs and Geoff emmick said that in one of the many takes of Ob La Di ... John showed up stoned and announced he was more f ing stones than you'll every be ....to everyone And then played the piano the ....right feel of the song .. Which is the style they used Anyway yeah .... John has said as much...that...Paul kept it going ...John was never necessarily thrilled about mentioning that ... And kind of just refers to Paul as being a pain in the arse in that time period

(Sorry Mooch, I should've made it more clear.....) I actually wanted to hear Lennon before he joined the Beatles or if there's any recordings of the Beatles (w/Lennon) before Please, Please Me was released?

There's the Decca audition. And the album they did w/ Tony Sheridan, which features a Lennon/Harrison instrumental and Lennon singing Ain't She Sweet.
Live in Hamburg at the Star Club gives you an idea of what the Beatles were all about back then.
Lennon started playing w/ McCartney when he was 16, in a pre-Beatles outfit called the Quarrymen IIRC. But I don't think there's any material form that period.

John Lennon didn't join the Beatles .... He formed them Johns first group was skiffle .... John played banjo I believe and he called it Johnny and the Moon Dogs Then that group became the Quarry Men Then That became the Silver Beetles Then that became ... The Beatles .... And he lead and started all of them There are boot legs available ... The oldest one I beige is a buddy holly song John Paul and maybe George or another musician at that time crammed in a small booth that spit out viynle records or something ... They took that record and loaned it to each other ... They thought t was terrific .... Someone didn't give it back ... Its on anthology I believe .. Peggy sue o that'll be the day

George was a school buddy of John's and introduced McCartney to John. Paul showed John a bunch of chords that he did n't know and generally impressed him so much on the first meeting, that John knew he had to have him in the Quarrymen. He just did n't want to admit it for a couple of days. John knew that he had met his equal. They began writing songs together almost immediately. Edit: Oops, going to much from memory. A mutual school friend named Ivan introduced the two. Paul later introduced George to John.

Yup .... Not sure about " a bunch of chords" becuase at that time neither one of them knew a whole lot of chords .... But McCartney did impress John with singing twenty flight rock ... Be bop a Luna .... And some others... Paul usually sites playing twenty flighty rock for John when they met ... Uses it in sound checks a lot too Your right about meeting his equal ... John was always letting Paul know who was in charge in the early days .... I've read stories of things Lennon used to do back stage before playing live just as a reminder ... Something along the lines of being purposely late out of his dressing room ... Cant start without me sorta thing....Or wearing his tie loose and unbuttoned just to show the others who was really in charge .... Egos of musician ... Including myself .... Gotta love that in us

Mooch,
Jonbouy lives in very close proximty to Sir Paul's studio in the Sunny Southern Coast of the UK (I've seen it). You should have asked him to stand up @ your wedding. Jonbouy's entourage usually includes Sir Paul.
Yeah, yeah, yeah Mooch. Sir Paul acknowledged my Mrs in the nearby church fairly recently by giving her a nod. I think he's sold the studio now though. Although here's some pics, it can be seen clearly from my place. http://www.roughwood.net/PhotoAlbum/2005%20Album/IckleshamWindmill2005.htm But Sir Paul and I are near neighbours. He's never heard of Mooch so I have one over on him.

In the 60s, it was Paul. These days I think John really made a bigger difference than any of them because of his GREAT voice. Paul had a great voice to and was a better songwriter but John had a once in a lifetime voice. I think John was on track to become a deeper thinker than any of them when he was killed. Paul has just lost me on some things. George always seemed a bit off kilter to me and I never liked the way he looked (not that looks should matter)...
Ringo is magic in most every way. He has always been funny, has always kept a low profile, always done his job and done it well.. and he has always been funny. I know he ent straight to NYC when John was killed to console Yoko. As a person: Ringo. Songwriter: Paul (Yesterday: acoustic guitar and vocal... can you imagine when he came into the studio and performed that song the first time?) .
Singer/whole package: John. Though I absolutely HATE the song Imagine... go figure.

Wow, I suggested that Yoko needed to be Autotuned on the Bob Dylan re-write called don’t frack your mother (or something like that) and the Yoko supporters were out in force. The serious answer to your question is John . “Love” of off the John Lennon / Plastic Ono Band album was my wedding song 21 years ago and Well, Well, Well (not the Duffy song) off of the same album has always been an all-time favorite song.
