Doesn't look anything like Ringo, imo.

I wouldn't confuse him with Ringo either. I'll take a guess- Glyn Johns, recording engineer.

....And why does he look so much like Ringo?   Him ...... the Faux Ringo before Tara?  This photo session is important for Phil as Paul entrance not for (F)Ringo character |

Excellent comparison, GN! You know, I never even believed there could be a Fingo until this.
I think that the very least, the Beatles would sometimes use doubles for photo shoots if only for
the mere fact that they couldn't be bothered with it.

I would say if that was a Ringo stand in, it is pretty bold to have them pose in the same picture. At first I thought it was Clapton without a mustache, or... now this is a stretch, Prince Charles with a Beatle wig.....  |

 From: invanddis.proboards29.com/index.cgi?action=display&board=general&thread=1201369773&page=1Rather strange, yes. It would be fair to say that "Billy Shepherd" at the very least portrays himself as someone who is always within the inner circle, hardly ever missing a tour, or even the recording of an album, if you go back through his earlier writings. Mal has been discussed as a possibility, or perhaps even a Beatle.. who knows? Phil Ackrill is just who replaces Paul. Billy Shears (Billy Shepherd) was who replaced Ringo the first time (the second was Tara Browne) as Beatles told in plain text. So Sgt. Pepper was about Ringo replacement. Magical Mystery Tour was about Paul replacement. CODE in plain text. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plain_textThat's for Martin. |

Woah, they do look similar!
But I bet he wouldn't look anything like him in a larger picture.

JoJo, where is Mike in MMT? I never noticed him. This is him, not a "faux Ringo".. (blue shirt)  There is a still or two in Beatles Monthly from that time of Mike, which is why I believe the above is him. I'll try to track them down. |

One pic, it would seem likely he was a bus passenger.  |

Maybe not Paul, but another possible "Faul " ? He looks more like Paul than Bill does. Hmmmm.....  |

I'm in a state of confusion also Mommybird. But I still think Paul died in 1966.
The Sgt. Pepper drum - the date.
I haven't changed my mind on that yet.

Oh, they did a real great job then creating a match. Now I can see why it went so smoothly. From profiles to near oblique angles, you can't tell the difference between JPM and Sir Paul. It took some real genius to creatively determine that Bill was a candidate that could be molded into Paul--and again more genius in order to polish the apple. (complete the effect) Hmm. Wow, actually. |

After looking through at least 6 photobuckets, I found another photo:  I'd have to say from this photo that he's too short to be Paul. This guy looks to be about 5ft.6 in. tall.  Also, his profile looks nothing like Paul's. I FOUND IT ! AFTER LOOKING THROUGH 8 PHOTOBUCKETS, I FINALLY FOUND THE PHOTO I WAS ORIGINALLY LOOKING FOR !!! AND HERE IT IS...  I can definitely say now that I don't think that he looks like Paul at all...  I still can't figure out WHY this photo does look like Paul :  Hmmmm.....  |

I can definitely say now that I don't think that he looks like Paul at all... I still can't figure out WHY this photo does look like Paul : Hmmmm..... Yes, 5'6" undercuts my lowest estimate for what might have been JPM's height. It's counter-intuitive to me that "they" (who is "they"? sorry, I have no footnotes for that) would select as a replacement an individual who deviated from the original subject more than 5%-7% in height----just too far. So this person may have to shift out of the "possible JPM" file into another file, say, roadie, film shoot assistant producer for MMT, handler, or, Apple staff with multiple assigned duties. Nameless at this time. I think most of us would agree that his profile deviates in form from anything we have to this point considered to be James Paul's profile. In full face I must observe that he is rather reminiscent of William or stretched James Paul or whoever that is in the plan shot below it---reminiscent but entirely off-proportion from, again, the "types" we have viewed in vintage photos to consider as JPM. Frankly, and I mean this in the nicest way, when they grin broadly to the camera, they both look like rabbits. And it might be said, "What's up doc?" Well, said. Well said indeed. But I have no real answer. Aside from noting that rabbits tend to be vegetarians. right? Aha! I will let that sink in. See where I am driving? A sort of "cross-species" shared chromosome anomaly. (In my own observances about myself, I find a similar remark can be sustained about me concerning cows.....) If this were Paul, then somehow, magically, the "team", or,"whoever" was 100% successful at re-establishing in the overall public mind a very different version of Paul's physicality, while yet retaining some rather exact, key core traits that made detecting the switch unlikely by most people. |

Also, in the above black and white shot above of William and Mystery Dude in sun glasses, it dawns on me that THIS is the same sweater earlier on the bus for which he says, "I myself a a man of 30 but look much younger due to a certain FAIR ISLE sweater..." and , of course, I could'a'had a V-8--he said "PUERILE" not "FAIR ISLE." Because the sweater is--and I used to have several like it----puerile. www.answers.com/topic/puerileA puerile sweater would make you look more juvenile. Puerile. It's the "new" nerdy. |
