Kalle Posted November 24, 2008 Share Posted November 24, 2008 I love McCartney and I have no shame about it, he's pretty shleppy but I feel he wrote a better 'tune' more of the time throughout the Beatles and his solo career than any of the other members. However, I will admit his contributions to the White Album are not as good as Lennon's but to put it in context it's pretty hard to top McCartney's contributions to Revolver or Sgt. Pepper's.

jff Posted November 24, 2008 Share Posted November 24, 2008 Paul's a super talented guy, no doubt. He's probably more gifted than John in terms of melodicism, harmony, etc. And he's certainly more gifted than John as an instrumentalist. However, when it comes to songs written during their respective solo careers I think the scales tip in John's favor based on the entire Plastic Ono Band album, Instant Karma, Cold Turkey, Imagine and two or three additional tunes. Maybe Beautiful Boy, Watching the Wheels, etc. I intend to dig into Paul's career soon. I'm sure I've overlooked a lot of Paul's gems, but I doubt I'll feel that it stacks up to Lennon's solo output.
