Paul McCartney recalled how the late John Lennon's wife, Yoko Ono, caused some disruption for The Beatles during recording sessions
Paul McCartney is sharing how he really felt about Yoko Ono’s presence in some of The Beatles’ last recording sessions as a band.
Noting that he and his fellow bandmates Ringo Starr and George Harrison were not “very confrontational,” McCartney and the group viewed Ono as “something you had to deal with.” He added: “The idea that was if John wanted this to happen, then it should happen, and there’s no reason why not. … We would allow this and not make a fuss. And yet, at the same time, I don’t think any of us particularly liked it.
McCartney said he and the band put up with Ono’s presence for the sake of maintaining “the idea of the Beatles,” as well as needing to fulfill the duties of their job. “This was our job. This is what we did in life. We were the Beatles,” McCartney noted. “That meant if we didn’t tour, we recorded. And that meant if we recorded, we wrote.”
The Paul McCartney and Wings frontman’s recent comments mirror ones he made in a 2012 interview with David Frost. “ certainly didn’t break the group up, the group was breaking up,” he told the outlet.
