- Paul McCartney has spoken for the first time about the depression he went through after The Beatles broke up. He said on Tuesday that he started drinking heavily and came close to quitting music altogether after the group disbanded.
- The band officially split in 1970, post the release of ‘Let It Be’. It was triggered after Allen Klein was appointed manager of the band against McCartney’s wishes and in order to divest himself of Klein’s influence, he had to sue his fellow bandmates.
- The break impacted him as it was a group of life-long friends splitting. But they had a reconciliation before John Lennon’s death.
