Stumbled onto this via the YouTube algorithm. It won't be everyone's mug of tea, but it's impressive that he still has the vocal range that he does after all these years.
Beautiful version of a nice song. Really enjoyed that, thanks for sharing.
Slight disappointment at lack of day or ... TWOOOOOOOOO!!!!!! But he is getting on, so thats more than fair!!

He did bloody well bearing in mind drummers and singers seem to be the ones that crap out first……I remember Ian Gillan from Deep Purple missing the high notes when I saw them live, Mike Patton from Faith no More can’t hit the notes he used to and Bill Ward got replaced in Sabbath for a younger drummer in his 30s.
Awesome effort.

That's awesome. I didn't know Rob Lowe could sing so well.

Dennis Wilson made one of the best albums of the 70s, but he's probably best known as the Beach Boy who was in debt to Charles Manson.
There's a story that during the filming of 1971's Two Lane Blacktop (a genuinely great film) he was so gone that he believed that he'd been sold an anti-gravity device, that he could put in his glove-box and ascend to the heavens if he was ever stopped by the police.

I reading years ago that despite the Lennon/McCartney writing credits they did very little collaboration throughout the band's history. It was an agreement that all songs written by John or Paul would have the duel writing credits.
I got McCartney's Lyrics for Christmas and that came out quite clearly. But there was a fair bit of collaboration in tidying up songs or telling each other what worked or not.
E.g Macca wrote Hey Jude and wanted to ditch the line "The movement you need is on your shoulder.". After playing it to Lennon, he said to leave it in as it was a great line for the song - so it stayed.

There's also a lot of collaboration between them on Get Back: The Beatles. I wonder if the "they didn't collaborate" came from the same myth factory that gave us the they were fighting all the time while doing this recording?
I've watched a few vids of Paul discussing songs on Youtube where he often discusses input from John on his tracks.

In terms of how the songs sounded, they must have all provided input as they were a band first and foremost. McCartney has said his bass lines were heavily influenced by Ringo's input and vice-versa
EDIT:

Think you're right. Came across an interview with Harrison & Ringo in the late '80's where they both said they always remained good mates who enjoyed working together until the end - and still hooked up whenever they could.
