Paul McCartney - Carl Perkins 1993

This is too good.

A legend meet another Legend !!!

Fabulous,,,,😁

Never knew Paul was a such a good lead guitar player in his own right.

Thanks Beatle Bob.....loved it and they are both so sincere! 🇨🇦

This song is so beautiful to me. I hear Carl's heart towards Paul of their friendship. That was a special moment for the both of them. Paul. Thank you for being my old friend and hero of music. ✌️ n 💙

I love Mr. Postman how they copy the unintelligible words of the Marvelettes, maybe by slowing it down to get the intonation what sounded like nonsense. Carl Perkins reminded me of that.

There is so much respect for Carl Perkins ... Paul and George both understand his talent and history .. He did have a song in the UK charts when I left school 1967 ????

THIS was solid Gold! Thank you so much for posting it. It made my Happy Friday even better. 😄

Adorooooooo ❤

Ooooh man! Bless them.

In the morning, Carl Perkins sang the song, which he named My Old Friend, for Linda and Paul, saying it was his gift for having him as a guest. Half way through the song, after singing “if we never meet again this side of life, in a little while, over yonder, where there’s peace and quiet, my old friend, won’t you think about me every now and then?” tears streamed down Paul’s face and he stood up and stepped outside.

Not knowing what the matter was, Carl stopped, a bit shaken. Didn’t Paul like the song? Linda warmly put her arms around Carl, and thanked him. She said the song was getting Paul to finally connect with his grief over John Lennon’s death.

Linda explained that the last time Paul talked to John, he had said the same line to Paul: “think about me every now and then, my old friend.”

My word, this is emotional. What a sweet man Carl Perkins was. My old friend what a tune.

A very special moment. First saw at LA Beatlefest.

Impressive to watch Paul like a kid. George and Eric intentionally unplugged their guitars with Carl, and Paul also respected their idol hollowing his pace.

I had a smile on my face while listening to this! So sweet to see them jamming with such joy and mutual respect for each other!

Pure magic - two great musicians showing mutual love and respect for each other and their music. I am a Beatles Freak but I hadn't heard about the song, "My Old Friend" - I definitely shed a tear as well. Thanks for the memories!

..."Your biggie (hit song), Blue Suede shoes"...

"oh, and what's your biggie, paul?"..
"umm... (almost all}"

Great

How lucky are we that 30 years later we can watch this. Seems like yesterday.

"Goes to show, you never know who's listening." Great quote.

This is almost exactly 5 years before Linda died.

Warm my heart☺️

Thank you for this hidden Treasure!

I can say that this is one of the best jams I've ever seen.

Can't stop smiling! Thank you for posting this piece of music history.

Find some old black & whites of Carl Perkins performing. His dance steps are the bomb. McCartney never saw them, as they only had records in those days.

Thanks Beatle Bob. This feature really pulls at heartstrings. The Dance Album by Carl Perkins was a big album for aspiring teenagers of the day. Great stories about catching three buses to borrow the album. Sure To Fall ,I believe Ringo sang that at a BBC session. Paul getting the low down on ‘Movie Magg’ .. priceless stuff for fans of The Beatles and Carl Perkins.

If this doesn’t bring tears—so beautiful!

Fake hair and Fake Paul

What was the last song that was played?

What an Iconic Moment, with two Musical Legends respecting each others talents enjoying the moment.!!!

Wonderful memories, maybe that’s all we have left.

Well

What a great jam session🎶🎵

A young kid who done good playing with his hero

Carl Perkins, master of the masters, Blue Suede Shoes and Chuck Berry’s Johnny B. Goode started everything

Is this supposed to be 3D? Why the two images?

Pity they couldn’t have got Dave Edmunds in on it too!

what a gem this video is... thanks for sharing

Paul always amazes me with his musical abilities. Truly gifted in so many ways.

Paul made another musician, the great Carl Perkins a very happy man. Thank you Paul. Great sweet genius musicians! Oh my goodness, beautiful, My Old Friend!

Never knew John Holmes played the guitar with Paul McCartney?

Why am I seeing double? 😂

Ahh this is making me smile so much

Paul ist ein verlogen. 2013 sagte er in Wien bei live Concert zum Schluss bis nächstes Jahr meine Fans! Was war?!?! Gekommen is er nicht !!!!

SUGAR BUGGER!!!! That's SUGAR BUGGER good documentary footage of Paul interviewing Carl, and Carl interviewing Paul..

All respect to Carl, but that wig is not great. Ringo must have learned from him! It's OK to get old.

Thank you ,Beatle Bob.

This is so beautiful... I can't even describe.
