A Paul McCartney Contract Proved He Thought a Beatles Reunion Might Happen
The way The Beatles broke up seemed to make a reunion impossible. John Lennon once said he and Paul McCartney were so good they could have been The Beatles without George Harrison and Ringo Starr. That seems doubtful even though Paul and John wrote most of the songs. Still, John and Paul’s tattered relationship as the Fab Four fractured made regrouping next to impossible. Paul signed a contract that proved he believed a Beatles reunion might happen, but the closest they ever came to getting back together was a Ringo solo album.John said he first saw the end of The Beatles coming when manager Brian Epstein died. The Fab Four held on for more than two years after Epstein’s August 1967 death, but it wasn’t easy. Ringo walked out of the White Album sessions. George did the same while working on Get Back.
