#71 - Oh! Darling with Caitlin Larkin

With the intention of returning to the Beatles' roots on the Get Back project, it's no surprise Paul chose to mine the New Orleans r&b/early rock and roll stylings that were an early influence. And while it didn't get it's final form until the Abbey Road sessions, there's crumbs of the creation of "Oh! Darling" scattered throughout Get Back and onward. It took months for the song to come together, and weeks for Paul to nail the vocal in just the right tone he was looking for. It's arguably one of his all time best vocal performances, and for a song that was never a single, it's one of the best-known tracks. And hard to believe he's only ever played it live once! Joining the show this week is our fab pal, the wonderful Caitlin Larkin! We caught up after one of her shifts on the air on the Sirius XM Beatles channel (you can hear her M-F 12-1 EST) to talk about all the wild Beatling that's gone on this year, her report of Paul's intimate Nashville show, and so much more!
