Paul McCartney kept ‘Now And Then’ a secret from session musicians: “We couldn’t tell them it was a new Beatles song”

Paul McCartney has revealed that he kept The Beatles‘ ‘Now And Then’ a secret from the extra musicians who played on the track in the studio.The song, dubbed the “final” single from the Fab Four, came out today (November 2) following the release of an accompanying short film titled Now And Then – The Last Beatles Song.‘Now And Then’ stemmed from a demo tape recorded by the late John Lennon, and was completed with the help of AI technology – which lifted the songwriter’s vocals off the initial recording.McCartney and his former bandmate Ringo Starr built on the demo in the studio along with producers Jeff Lynne and Giles Martin, the latter of whom is the son of late Beatles producer George Martin.At one point in the short film, McCartney recalled the process of adding a string arrangement to the single during a session at the famous Capitol Studios in Hollywood, California.“Giles worked up an arrangement like Giles’ dad would have done in the old days,” he explained.“We had to put the music out on the stands for the musicians, but we couldn’t tell them it was a new Beatles song. It was all a bit hush-hush.

Post Malone, ELO’s Jeff Lynne, Gloria Estefan and More Light Up Songwriters Hall of Fame Ceremony

Jem Aswad Executive Editor, Music We say every year that the Songwriters Hall of Fame Induction ceremony is the music industry’s best-kept secret — an invite-only, insider combination of a superstar awards show and a family reunion for the tight-knit songwriting and music-publishing community that is in its 52nd year and has never been televised or livestreamed. In fact, we’ve said it so many times that longtime SHOF CEO Linda Moran quoted us in her opening remarks on Thursday night. While the show has had honorees pull out in the past — Jay-Z due to the impending birth of his and Beyonce’s twins, less happily the Kinks’ Ray Davies due to the death of his sister — this year’s event was the first time two honorees canceled, deferring their inductions to next year: the reclusive Sade, who everyone figured had about a 40% chance of showing up, postponed several months ago due to a scheduling conflict, and Snoop Dogg, who pulled out abruptly for undisclosed reasons earlier in the week. But the SHOF is such a star-studded evening that the event was a rousing success filled with great music regardless — and the silver lining was the fact that it was over in a relatively tidy three hours (it often stretches toward five).

Paul McCartney says artificial intelligence has enabled a “final” Beatles song

Paul McCartney has said that artificial intelligence has allowed him to create a “final” song by The Beatles — which is set for release later this year.The legendary singer-songwriter and bassist discussed the prospect during a new interview with Radio 4’s Today Programme, and revealed that AI technology allowed him to “extricate” John Lennon’s vocals from an old demo track — meaning he could complete the song.While Sir Paul did not explicitly mention which specific track he is now in the process of completing, it seems likely that the track will be one developed by Lennon back in 1978, titled ‘Now And Then’.As reported by BBC, the Beatles bassist had received the demo from Lennon’s widow Yoko Ono in 1994. It was featured on a cassette that Lennon had made shortly before his death in 1980, and was titled ‘For Paul’.The surviving members contemplated releasing the song on their career-spanning ‘Anthology’ series in 1995, although this idea was later scrapped.The ‘Anthology’ series — cleaned up by producer Jeff Lynne — instead featured two other tracks from the cassette, ‘Free As A Bird’ and ‘Real Love’.
