Every other Beatle has gone out of their way to bitch and moan about how Paul would nag at them to get back to work, dragging them back to Abbey Road for yet another project. It's kind of funny whenever you hear Ringo tell the stories over and over now, but what if Paul hadn't pushed them to keep working so hard? There'd be no landmark Sgt. Pepper, no sprawling White Album. No bare-boned Let it Be, no majestic Abbey Road. No Hey Jude, Lady Madonna, and on and on. Even if they had stopped in 1966 the Beatles' legacy would have been cemented, but we'd be without such incredibly cultural-shifting pieces of art - jut try imagining the world around us without them existing as part of it.
SIDE NOTE: the whole post is worth reading for my brilliant Michael/Michael payoff in the photo juuuuuuuuuuuuuussssssssst sayin!
Apparently Ringo's a big fan (hi Ringo!) and agrees with me (about Paul McCartney, not my comedy brilliance):
