Details:
Marc talks with Paul McCartney about, well, a lot: The Beatles and
Stones rivalry that wasn’t, his current relationship with Ringo, the
influence of Little Richard, The Who, The Beach Boys, how he needs to
have an out-of-body experience to really examine the Beatles legacy, the
reception of his solo work after the Beatles, recording Band on the Run
in Nigeria, what messages are in his songs, which songs still make him
emotional when he performs them, and what he brought to the table for
his latest album, Egypt Station.

Paul to appear on WTF Podcast
Paul McCartney recorded an interview with host Marc Maron of the "WTF" Podcast at the Capitol Records building in Hollywood yesterday.
According to Variety:
Among the topics brought up by Maron: fame, meeting fans, recording with John Lennon and the long life of the Beach Boys vs. Beatles oneupmanship as well as the Beatles vs. Rolling Stones rivalry. Of the latter, said McCartney: “We were at that Oldchella thing together. They’re great. We go back a long way and there was never really a rivalry.”

Asked about “Helter Skelter,” McCartney recalled being “suddenly singled out for being the soundtrack to a murderer. … For years I wouldn’t do that song. I felt like if I did it, it would be a victory for him. Then I thought, ‘Wait a minute, I wrote it!'”
