Title: “The Truth Comes Out: What Paul McCartney’s Former Bandmates Really Think”
In a rare convergence of reflections, former bandmates of Paul McCartney — from his Beatles era and beyond — have opened up about their experiences with the legendary musician. While Sir Paul has long been lauded for his musical genius, his collaborators haven’t always found him easy to work with. According to recent interviews compiled by Grunge, several past colleagues described him as both “brilliantly driven” and “incredibly controlling.” Some felt overshadowed by his perfectionism, while others admitted his standards pushed them to be better.
George Harrison, in archived comments, once likened working with McCartney to “being in school again,” noting that his intense attention to detail could be stifling. Ringo Starr, on the other hand, balanced his remarks by praising McCartney’s vision while acknowledging that not everyone thrived under it. More recent collaborators echoed these sentiments, calling McCartney “a force of nature” — one who commands the room but occasionally leaves little space for others.
Despite the criticism, there’s no denying Paul’s unmatched influence on popular music. Even those who found working with him challenging ultimately agreed on one thing: his genius is unquestionable, even if it comes at a cost.
