Paul McCartney discusses his relationship with John Lennon – video

John Lennon would have turned 75 on Friday 9 October – and for all the prickliness between him and Paul McCartney in the years after the Beatles split, his death in 1980 left a huge hole in his former bandmate’s life.

In this mini-documentary, featuring a live performance of the song Here Today – written in response to Lennon’s death – and a vintage interview, you can hear McCartney reflecting on his relationship with his old friend.

  • Deluxe editions of the albums Tug of War and Pipes of Peace are out now.
