PAUL: "FATHER RESPONSIBLE FOR BEATLES SOUND"

Paul says his father is responsible for the sound of the Beatles.

The 69-year-old musician praises his dad James — a keen amateur piano player — for introducing him to music growing up in Liverpool when the family had to make their own entertainment.

“My first musical memories come from my dad,” said Paul. “He would play the piano at home — he and his friend Freddie Rimmer, both of whom worked at the cotton exchange in Liverpool as salesmen. This was the old days, you know.

“We made our own entertainment because we didn’t have anything else. And those old memories for me are of my dad playing the piano. I would lie on the carpet listening to him and taking it all in.”

Paul revealed his father’s influence stayed with him as he and John Lennon began writing for the Beatles.
