Justin,
I don't care if my stance on hearsay "doesn't wash" with you. I understand
the pitfalls, shortcomings and dangers of it, however, when I've received
such testimony from someone I trust immensely, it is an excellent and
integral ingredient of the accumulative, full picture. In short: the Spice
Girls suck, no matter how much "spice" you put on them. They are the
prototypical example of a corrupt industry committing wanton fraud upon the
entire world. Their management should be tried for criminal fraud, if
anyone's going to be. It doesn't sound as if you're aware that the British
courts accused Linda McCartney of fraud, and forced her to prove she could
really play keyboards. Guess what? She couldn't. Of course, there's no
justice today even in the British courts, who tend to copy the corrupt,
fascist American courts more and more.
You should indeed be glad you don't know the miscreant fruitcake pervert,
Michael Jackson. All you need to do is look at a picture of him 15 years
ago, and a picture of him today, and you can easily see the lengths to
which he's gone in order to try to hide the fact that he is a Negro -
something he is most definitely ashamed of. When Jim Morrison touched his
penis onstage in Miami some years ago, he was promptly arrested. When
Michael Jackson does the same thing and worse, he sells more CDs. Of
course, this is the age of Billy Blythe, getter known as William Jefferson
"Bill" Clinton, when there are no longer any morals at all. The Indians
call it the "Kali Yuga"...the "Age Of Evil".
If you have a connection such as a senior VP at Polygram, why can't you get
anywhere in the music industry. You do, indeed, have talent. I'm not saying
you don't. I am saying that talent matters very little, if at all, and if
you have a connection, you should be able to cut a deal by sundown. It's
4.42 pm, so you'd better get a move on, ol' sport!
Although I do not deem "Psychology" as anything even distantly befitting
the word "science", I was, nonethless, forced to study it at great length
in university, where I learnt that it is, indeed, anything but a science to
be taken seriously. I'm not trying to put you down, mate, although I am
trying to build a fire under your sometimes authoritarian-minded British
arse. : )
I read the book in German which was entitled "Hit Man". I didn't know it
was entitled "Hit Men" in English. Why don't you send me an English copy
when you send me the cassette. If it isn't too dear, I'll send you a cheque
denominated in British pound sterling. I don't put all my eggs in one
basket anymore; after all, I don't have many eggs left after Big Brother
knocked my door down all those years ago.
The sound clip that I sent you featured the voice of John Winston Lennon
singing my song. I'm surprised that you were unable to hear that. I do,
indeed, have a tape of me teaching him the song. I only had that short clip
available in my home, and I sent it to you within minutes after you asked
for it. I don't keep many valuables in my home anymore. Not after what
happened to me in 1988. No thanks. I'm ultra-cautious now. As a matter of
fact, just today I sent out five copies of a master CD of a song I recently
recorded, for safekeeping in five vaults in five countries.
I highly suggest you read Frank Zappa's book, "The Real Frank Zappa",
which, coupled with "Hit Men" really tells quite a lot about the realities
of the corrupt music industry.
Now, on to SIR James Paul McCartney. You think he's a "genius". I don't. I
don't know what your musical background and education, formal/informal is,
but judging from this statement, it sounds as if you're a self-taught
guitar player who sings and writes pop tunes. Am I correct in this
assumption, which is based on the tiny amount of information you've
provided to me?
Listen to John Lennon's "How Do You Sleep", which he wrote about Paul
McCartney. Concentrate on lyrics like:
"The only thing you did was 'Yesterday'
And since you're gone you're just 'Another Day'
Do you know why he wrote that? Because the only hit song McCartney ever
really "wrote" was Yesterday. Actually, Paul often searched through old
sheet music, obscure stuff, looking for song ideas. He found "Yesterday".
He was messing around with it, initially renaming it "Scrambled Eggs".
Finally, he bought the rights to it and recorded it verbatim, not changing
anything, other than adding his rather unique-sounding right-handed
acoustic guitar played in a left-handed style. That's right, Paul
McCartney, who will quickly tell you he's a genius, did not write
"Yesterday", so I can't even give him THAT much credit.
Paul was in the Beatles because he added "sweet" to John's "sour". He was a
pretty face. He really was THE Beatle, as far as physical image was
concerned. He didn't speak to reporters in such a bitter tone as John did.
His image helped the group tremendously, and John knew it, but as for the
music, McCartney was an excellent rock/bass player and an excellent tenor
singer, although my multi-lingual Irish friend, Brian, who lives in London,
sounds like him but infinitely better and with a much greater range.
Paul had a MUCH better knowledge of musical instrumentation and arrangement
than John, and could play several instruments at a mediocre level, with the
exception of the bass, which he played excellently, as noted above. Paul's
abilities came directly from his father, who led a band that used to play
live in cinemas before sound came out.
Listen to the albums Paul's put out in the last three decades, since the
Beatles broke up. There's only one word to describe his "music": SHIT. Or,
in the words of John Lennon, from the same song, "How Do You Sleep":
"The sound you make is Muzak to my ears
You must've learnt SOMETHIN' in all those years"
You are obviously a great fan of Paul's. Good for you. Be happy. That's
what's most important in life. I'm happy for you. But Paul McCartney never
wrote a full song for the Beatles, and he sang songs that I wrote which I
gave to John, and in many cases, he's aware of it, and doesn't care. He's
quite a greedy bloke, if you haven't noticed. As a matter of fact, he's so
greedy that when I saw him in Chiswick with George Harrison about two years
ago, and he told me Linda had cancer, and I told him about an American
Indian tea ("Essiac") that would probably cure it for her, he asked me to
send it to him, but expected it to be a gift. I was barely getting by and
told him I'd get it for him at my cost, but I couldn't afford to send it to
him gratis. He refused to pay the approximately �20. His wife died. She
could've been saved if he'd paid a measly twenty quid. See what I mean. As
Dr. Patch Adams says, "Greed is the greatest disease in this world today."
Someone gave me Paul's latest album. I swear to you, it was the worst thing
I've ever heard in my entire life, from anyone! Ringo and he wrote a "song"
that was on it that sounded like some 11-year-old kids in an Indianapolis
garage band from the early Sixties. It was HORRIBLE! It was so bad that I
did something I'd never done before: I returned it to the person who'd
gifted me with it. His son, James, played guitar on it. Paul called him
"the young Turk" in the CD booklet. Well, the "young Turk" played about as
well as around two million California school kids. He had no special talent
at all. He just has his daddy's name, and where's it gotten him? Why hasn't
he put a CD out? Or has he, and it's so bad it flopped? Obviously, he can't
even help himself, even with his famous dad's connections, so I guess he's
unwilling to try and help you, right?
I've told you and others several times why I've decided to prove to the
world that the Beatles were a grand hoax. When I was a kid, I was an
orphan, and I looked up to John as a sort of big brother or even father
figure. (Get that Psychology book out now!) I am, both by nature and
upbringing, an extremely loyal person. I'm also not a "snitch". I was paid
enough money that I was able to drive new Porsches and maintain houses like
my beachfront house in Malibu. So, on the surface, I lived just like the
people I was writing songs for; just they made a million times more than I
did. At the time of my arrest in March 1988, I had liquid assets in excess
of $60,000,000 so why on earth should I've been complaining? I was offered
$40,000,000 for my "John Lennon - Michael Boren Williams Ideas Tapes" and I
turned it down; not just because I didn't need the money (and I'm not
greedy like Paul McCartney), I was threatened with everything from infinite
lawsuits to death if that music ended up being released and destroying the
god-like image of the Beatles. I was doing well. I didn't care so much.
Now, however, I care, and I care VERY much because about eight years ago, I
couldn't even get a seat in a restaurant that John Lennon and others I
ghost-wrote for frequented. Their autographed pictures were even in the
window. It was then and there that I knew that my life's work was not
recognised as being mine...to the extent that it was like I had never even
been born.
Now, I intend to change all that before I die, which, considering my
condition, could be very soon. Actually, even if I die, the wheels are
already turning to get all this music and evidence released this year. It's
gonna be HOT! When the dust settles, the Beatles and many others won't
shine anywhere near as brightly as they do today. Stay tuned.
Cheers,
