Very deliberately he remarked at the conchision of a certain musical offering, "I don't like what Paul McCartney is doing these days. Since he's married, he's beginning to sound like an old man." It was a general remark but one which set me to thinking. How time flies and how things change over the years! I remember when the Beatles with Paul McCartney were the wildest thing to hit television. Maybe you remember, too, when the Ed Sullivan show headlined the way-out quar- tette from England which had the girls scraming and fainting in the aisles. Do you recall the long hair? The tresses which sickened moms and dads across the nation and gave the kids of that era new insight into the world outside their hometown? Do you remember that crazy, loud, pulsating music which left the young set weak but their parents deafened and angry? Actually when you look back on it now, the Beatles weren't really that wild. It was just that their style was so new and so radical that they seemed particularly offensive. But now that we're more accustomed to that kind of performance, the Beatles of that era were quite tame and surprisingly talen- ted. When the group broke up ... and when the members went their own way to do their own thing .... the entertainment world was bombarded with imitations of the fanious Beatles as well as performers who added something or took away a bit to develop a new sound. It is almost 10 years now since the Beatles first became popular and they have all aged. As my son remarked, "Paul McCartney must be over 30!" And whether you were a Beatle or not, when you are 30 you usually change your views on things, You aren't that same youthfUl free-agent you once were and you certainly aren't so boistrous and exuberant as you once were. You begin to mellow .as all things do with age .,., and I guess it is only natural that it shows up in everything you do. In Paul McCartney's case, it is evident in the kind of music he's producing these days. I thought back to when I was a youngster and Frank Sinatra was the hottest thing in Show Biz. As far as I'm concerned, Sinatra is still the greatest male vocalist in North America ..,. and my heavens, the man is retired and out of circulation! What does that make me? I also remember the hey days, those first weird and wonder- ful days in the career of Elivs 'The Pelvis' Presley. I remem- ber what were considered his obscene gyrations on stage and his sexy facial expressions, tousled hair and open shirt collar and all, Look at Presley now, if you will, Subdued, still and sensual ..., but different .... and older. So it appears that it is true that performers change, as we all do, with age. But whether or not marriage is the prime fac- tor, as my son believes, is yet another question. Going back to the Beatles, let's. look at the prime example of marriage in the raw from that group. It has to be John Lennon who is married to the Siren of the East, Yoko Ono. From the newspaper accounts I've read from time to time, John may be getting older and wiser but as far as his marriage is concerned, he':.; rather im- mature. The same goes for Sinatra and Presley. Sinatra has been married so many times I've lost track of all his wives and I un- derstand from the movie magazines I read while I'm at the hairdressers each week, that Frankie is still looking for the love of his life, And Presley's lost his Priscilla to a South American with an Afro haircut and from Hollywood reports, Elvis is alleycatting again like a teenager. My conclusion would be, therefore, that it certainly isn't marriage which stablizes a per- former .... or takes away his ap- peal to the young set as far as his music is concerned. It is something far less glamorous called aging, a process which catches up with all of us, sooner or later. I'm glad, too. Aren't you? John H. Archibald, son of Mr. and Mrs. Chester A.
