In my Italian forum ( ilras.proboards.com), a member, blaureuter, pointed out that there is something strange in this picture taken in 1978 during the "back to the egg" studio session. Who's the guy with the guitar? It would be toooo much if it was HIM but I'm still curious to know his identity. Even if he's playing right-handed that isn't so important... Maybe he found Danny Laine's one and tried it. Picture taken from this site (go to 1978) webpages.charter.net/ram71/Here's my take on it: we don't know much about the Baby's Request sessions other than that the song was recorded some time in October or November of '78, around the same time as Rockestra. Here's a photo of the Rockestra ensemble: Unless I'm mistaken, Juber's the fellow on the far left. Now ask yourselves, could the guy sitting with his guitar in the Baby's Request picture be Lawrence Juber?

But in the Rockestra picture I posted Juber's hair is longer and shaggier. Could he have grown his hair out that much in a month's (or less) time between recording sessions?

You're correct there. Dunno what to think of the studio pic. On one hand there is a resemblance to Paul on the other it doesn't scream out "JPM" like the boat photo.

That could be because the boat pic is closer to the time JPM was out in the public eye (known JPM pics weren't taken too far before). The wings pic is about ten years later.
I really don't think it's Juber. The hair's wrong (not even the same growth - wave wise - ask a cosmetologist) and he doesn't look as close to the JPM pics as guitar guy. JPM and g. guy are almost a lock. Again, who's likely to be at a wings session AND look that close to JPM?

Yeah, agree. I think the older pic of Juber is closer to the man in the studio session picture than the one that's only a couple of months later. Remember, Juber was only in Wings for its last year, and has always been photographed with long, shaggy hair. Meanwhile, the guy on the far left of the picture is wearing a vest that Juber was seen in on the back of "Back To The Egg." In my opinion, it's Holly and Juber on the left side of the picture, Sir Paul and Denny on the right, and JPM in the middle.

All valid points, I just have some doubts, as the look is similar but not compelling enough for me to say its JPM.

BUT YOU NOT think this is the same person: If you're asking me specifically, you're making an assumption that serves as a digression from the main thought of the thread. And IF your personal belief is the same as your screen name, it seems your stating the opposite in that pre '67 and post '66 Paul are the same guy. I'm slightly confused.

The guy with the mustache in that particular image might be JPM as well. It's hard to determine. To paraphrase the song, "no one knows. He comes and goes."

I'm slightly confused. my screenname is just a screen name. i do not believe paul was replaced. the paul from 1967 always looks MUCH more like Paul from before, then any alleged blurry JPM jamming with Wings

Point taken, and wings point is valid and could be part of the scenario.
But, looking at the compare pics thru the thread, and giving them a really good study - it wouldn't surprise me if quite a few said they thought the resemblance was pretty darn close (and maybe dead on).

the guy is, no doubt, Larry Juber, a talented guitar player that recorded with McCartney some times; in the front cover of "Back to the egg" he's the last on the right side.

I wouldn't say 'no doubt'. Both the album cover and this pic (his site) show together what Juber looked like. His hair is WAY longer than this:

www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bo0NiXAe0ecCarefully look at 2.05 and on thru 2.11 or so. As far as I know that's Juber - just look at the length AND the volume of his hair. I don't really see a match. Is there any evidence he cut his hair at this time period?

Yeah, the guys with their heads down are definitely Holly and Juber. What the hell? -----------LOL... am still laughing over this

Hi, I noticed you have a few quick posts with some laughing comments.
It's a good method you have there. Sign up as a member - make some not well thought out comments very quickly in various threads - with the hope someone will meander down to your signature and click the link for your Barbados travel specials.
So transparent. (how many forums do you visit doing this? Just curious)
Don't spam us.

When I saw he made five posts right off, I figured I'd find someone selling cheap jewelry. (usually the way it works) He does sorta stay on topic, but puts an ad for "Bahamas Travel Specials" in his sig.. A new method?
If you are here to sell crap, then don't waste your (and our) time.

So, looking through the 'Paul McCartney' recording history and then doing a hard search on the text, I've come to realize that neither 'Paul McCartney' as a solo act nor as the leader of Wings ever recorded at Apple Studios…Why? Didn't they spend tons of cash building that place? What happened to the actual recording facilities?

I think this roused discussion because of the implications of the whole thing. If the pic is Juber, it's Juber. Oh well. 'Nothing to be seen here - move along'. BUT, IF it's JPM (and it certainly looks like him) - It's mind blowing. One, he didn't die. It shows that. Two, No one seemed to think it wasn't Bill on the upright bass in the shot - so, it clearly shows there is a replacement (Bill is right there in the same room). Three, it would seem the two have a cordial relationship - one where JPM could drop by and, if not doing anything musically to speak of, was hanging out evidently. The pic was along the same lines as the Junk boat . There's Billy in the middle (and who can that be on the left - hmmm...) Can't remember if there was an absolute conclusion about it but it was the same questions that came up - and implications.

I think Derek Taylor's name came up.
