1 of Paul McCartney's Last Conversations With John Lennon Was About Making Bread
John Lennon and Paul McCartney are responsible for one of the most prolific rock acts in all of musical history: the Beatles. Throughout their decades-long friendship, the pair traveled the world, sold out stadiums, and created a legacy that is still present today.
Regardless of all of the glitz and glam, one of McCartney and Lennon’s final conversations was about something seemingly mundane: baking bread.
Before they were the Beatles, Lennon and McCartney were two middle-class Liverpool boys who bonded over their passion for rock ‘n’ roll music and songwriting. The two famously met at a church social in 1957, when McCartney was just 15 and Lennon 16, per UDiscoverMusic. Lennon’s band at the time, the Quarry Men, was playing at the event, which captured the attention of the aspiring musician, McCartney.
