Don’t get me wrong – I’m the first to step in and defend Yoko. I’ve long felt she was unfairly maligned, and she’s always struck me as prime Mutant material. I don’t even mind challenging music. That said any time in Get Back when she got behind the microphone was definitely not enjoyable to me – but I certainly respect her not giving a fuck and just going for it.
I’m the first who will get pissed at people when they bring their unruly children to the workplace, but I don’t find much to be mad at here.
Just for context, this was their 7th straight day in the studio and on a Sunday morning. All of the other wives and girlfriends were also there. It was seemed like more of a party atmosphere and nobody seemed to be taking the day too seriously. They weren’t heads down for hours working on a song and then some screaming kid comes running into the studio causing havoc. It’s also not like Heather just jumped up and grabbed the mic from Paul while they were in the middle of a serious rehearsal or anything – they were screwing around in a jam session when she joined in.
The next day it was all business again.
