And listening to Paul McCartney talk in , it would be easy to believe that he is the biggest Beatles fan of them all. Come on, what could possibly top having five records in the American Top Ten at the same time? What could top playing Shea Stadium to the loudest crowd in history? Or making Sgt Pepper? What on earth could possibly top being revered by an entire generation? Or two. What could top being a Beatle? Never forget. This is a man who partied with Mick Jagger at the dawn of the s, who met Elvis Presley, who has outlasted 15 British prime ministers and 13 American presidents, a man who has inspired everyone from Pete Townshend to Noel Gallagher, from Paul Weller to Ed Sheeran.

McCartney was already famous when JFK was shot, already famous when men landed on the moon. This is a man who has lasted longer than Led Zeppelin, David Bowie, the Sex Pistols and Oasis, a man who at the age of 78 looks closer to It was bought in to get around his farm in Scotland and to drive to and from London.

McCartney is having a busy year, even if he has spent several months cocooned in his East Sussex farm. Current projects include High In The Clouds an animation project that has been bought by Netflix , a special reissue of Flaming Pie and a 50th anniversary limited-edition release of his first solo album, McCartney. Ringo Starr, for one, is pleased with the new film, as it shows them as genuine collaborators rather than adversaries.

At the beginning of the year we were on holiday and then the lockdown started just after we got back and so I flew to England and spent the time with my daughter, Mary, and her kids on the farm.

So, suddenly, we were all locked down there. Did the lockdown afford you any time for reflection? Have your learned anything about yourself over the past few months? I like working as well. But relationships are important. Family is important. Music is important. I like having stuff to do, as it keeps the brain busy.

It keeps me off the streets. Not only do Taylor make some of the best acoustic guitars, but this California company — based in El Cajon — is also one of the most successful.

It might be a little bit like too much hard work. Definitely nothing attracts me about the idea. Most of the time I fly up. One time was with Bono, actually, and we drove together because we were both going to the same event at Liverpool Arena.

And I know all the routes, you know? And this is the street here where I had my first girlfriend. James suggested doing it. I was always a little apprehensive about going back.

Jumper by Dior. Shoes by Stella McCartney. A little bit here and there. But I love it. I love Liverpool.

I love the history of it. I love my old school, which is now Lipa, and I go there a couple of times a year and take songwriting classes and for the graduation, which was cancelled this year unfortunately. That always hits me. I was very lucky. I had a great family. There were a few drunks, but outside of that, it seems to be a very loving family.

So I have a lot of very affectionate memories of that time and of those people. Do you have any other favourite terrace appropriations of Beatles songs? They know all the words.

Others were quick to point out that they had tied the knot in the late John Lennon's birthday! Oh, you married on John's birthday and it's the 9th anniversary today, wow, the magic," wrote one. The musician's full caption read: "Congratulations Nancy on our 9th Wedding Anniversary.

Thanks for 9 beautiful years of marriage. You are my rock and roll, you are my A side and B side, you are my verse and chorus. I love you.
