This is amazing, but it's funny how 'With a Little Help' blew his mind when he could probably write a better song than that in his sleep. Or he could've back in the 60s.

Don't underestimate the simple but timeless quality and profound musical intelligence behind that tune.

Can you give us more detail on the profound musical inteligence? What sets this song apart from others?

I'm always up for some deep analysis of form.

I didn't mean to underestimate it, and it is a timeless song, but I feel what Brian was doing around that time was much more complex, for lack of a better word. I get why he'd be amazed at it, but just in comparison to what he was capable of I thought it was funny.

That audio was featured in McCartney's syndicated radio show, Oobu-Joobu.
