There have always been myths and stories in music. Robert Johnson selling his soul, "Gloomy Sunday", but by the time rock and roll hit, the stories and conspiracies continued. Did Jim Morrison really die? Is Elvis alive and well, living in Tweed? Did Jimmy Page sell his soul to the devil? Did Courtney Love kill Kurt Cobain? Did the Monkees really play on their albums (they did from their third album on). But the most bizarre was the Paul Is Dead rumour. Well, more than a rumour, a mania. People went crazy finding clues in songs and album covers. Books, magazines, even TV shows about the conspiracy. This week on The Way-Back Music Machine, we take a look at the Paul Is Dead theory. Fun, scary and downright strange.
