The 1971 concert Paul McCartney was offended by: “I’m not going to do that”
Forgiving but not forgetting.
The 1975 song Bob Dylan could never finish properly: “It was open to be cut better”
Capturing the wrong feeling.
The 1975 guitar riff Jimmy Page wanted to play forever: “I didn’t want to stop”
The height of rock and roll grandeur.
“I didn’t have anything to offer”: The 1977 Pink Floyd album Richard Wright never liked
Not his finest effort.
