It was my daughters birthday on the 6th and my wife and I got a good laugh about it.
Lets clear up some of the talk on the Beatles. Remember that Paul left the Beatles before anyone else did, unless you are counting the time that Harrison walked out of the studio when they were recording Let it Be and told the band he was finished. John was basically like, screw him, we will get Eric Clapton if he doesn't return tomorrow. But that is neither here nor there. Paul released his solo album right before Let it Be was to hit store shelves, and it really pissed off the rest of the Beatles, even though most of them agreed that Abby Road was the last Beatles album. yoko Donut was a piece of work, but to say she broke up the Beatles on her own is hog warsh. They simply got to big. John was in the middle of a 5 year drug binge that kept getting worse and worse, and it was truly effecting his music.
Paul started to believe that he was the Beatles, and was trying to push John out of the roll has the bands leader, which I understand since John was stoned on H most of the time. In a way, if it wasn't for Paul Let it Be and Abby Road probably would have never gotten done. Paul has a way about him that just rubs people the wrong way, and if your John Lennon, you don't have to put up with his shit.
Harrison wanted out as well. He had to play second fiddle to John and Paul for a better part of 10 years and he was fed up. He wanted to go solo he had the music ready to go, but he still felt a loyalty to the band.
And then there was poor Ringo. Ringo had a little of this and a little of that going on, but he surely didn't need the Beatles to go under. He was a 2nd rate drummer to begin with and he wrote very little material.
Ono did push John in a way to leave the Beatles, but not for her personal gain, more for John's. The Beatles were burning John Lennon out. She along with some others thought that John could be bigger than the Beatles, and as we all know none of them could ever match the greatness of the Beatles on their own. McCartney is still trying at almost 70 years old.
