recording there after originally just planning to stay at a farm for a few weeks to rehearse for a tour. Junior's farm, belonging to Curly Putman (Claude Putman, Jr.), a songwriter best known for "Green, Green Grass of Home." )
The two videos about the McCartneys' stay near Nashville and visits to Nashville are both worth watching. They cover a bit of the same ground, but the first one is mostly about the family and their stay, and the second is more specifically about the music Paul decided to record there. The second also has a few short video clips from the studio.

cover we did. We only played one gig (or tried to before the cops broke it up) outside
our practice room. sigh...

(14,118 posts)6. We also did Hush. Had great versatility since one of our two guitar players doubled on
his B3. We all sang, had potential, got lots of experience and went our separate ways.
We did do one original song I wrote that referenced the band name and I named it.
Now I'll go back to forgetting!

last video?
Fine guitarist who died much too young.
