Yorke Snubs Mccartney Collaboration

Sir Paul McCartney was desperate to collaborate with Thom Yorke - but the Radiohead star turned him down.
The former Beatle claims Yorke rejected an offer to work on an album with him - because he wants to solely concentrate on his band.
MCCartney says, "My daughter (Stella) was putting an album together and she put us in touch.
"I asked Thom to do a duet, but he said he couldn't because he only felt happy working on his own and Radiohead's material."
MCCartney's 2005 album, Chaos And Creation In The Backyard, was produced by long-time Radiohead collaborator Nigel Godrich.

I think Its a shame I think they could had been great together. I have always loved the [Okay Radio ]Album Radiohead did.They seem to have a lot in common.Maybe he feared of being in the shadow of Paul.I sorta understand.Paul The group Jet is a great artist also' White Strips'Keane'Eliott Smith'Guided by Voices'Pernice Brothers'& The Sunshine fix. They i believe would be great colaberators. Think about It. If you did pair with any of these I would sure purchase what ever albums would come out of any of these colaberations.Please please Try one of these please. We Love ya Paul Your Friend .
