Brian Wilson To Perform With Sir Paul McCartney This Week

The rivalry of two of pop music’s greatest ever songwriters is likely to end this week as Sir Paul McCartney looks certain to join Brian Wilson for a duet at The Royal Festival Hall following Wilson’s performance of a Beatles classic last night.

Wilson debuted new song cycle ‘That Lucky Old Sun’ and ended the set with a cover of The Beatles classic ‘Sgt. Peppers Lonely Hearts Club Band’.

It has also been confirmed by festival insiders that Sir Paul has been approached to play on Thursday night (September 13).

The friendly competition of the 60s and trying to outdo one another has left the pair good friends even though it was reported that ‘Sgt. Peppers’ had contributed to the retirement of Wilson and the demise of his mental health.

Wilson’s tour continues tonight and throughout September.

it was drugs (lots of LSD) and a father that was incapable of loving his son that caused Brian Wilson’s breakdown, not Sgt. Pepper! Nameless, you obviously know NOTHING about Paul McCartney.

Brian and Paul already worked together on the absolutely insipid ”A Friend Like You” on the rather awful ”Getting In Over My Head” Album. It was as if they decided to ignore their greatest skills, and instead focused on Brian’s most mediocre songsriting and Paul’s ability to write really annoying sugary vocal parts, neither of which really represent their best work. A shame really - they could potentially do some great work together!

Very sad that ”Nameless of course” is himself such an asshole....grow-up and get a lkife

Played with emotions??? He was with the same woman for over thirty years, and they didn’t divorce she died. How can you say he was a womanizer. Before Linda he was with Jane Asher. He was always a one woman guy. Get your facts straight at least.

Ahh But who really know Sir McCartney ? Surly us as fans only knows his performing talent , and what is written in the press . His personal life is none of our business, his is simply an entertainer and a very good one at that . Any and all entertainers deserve ther privacy .

wow. i am always amazed that people feel the need to vent such anger at paul mccartney. the only man besides paul newman to have a 30 year marriage in show business and simply the best example ever of how to create good in the world with your fame. i’m not really a big fan, but damn, what more could someone want ?
