McCartney, 82, confirmed Here Comes the Sun from Abbey Road was one of his all-time favourite recordings from Harrison. The Wings frontman also confirmed Brainwashed, Harrison’s posthumous release, which dropped in 2002, was among his favourite albums. In a Reddit AMA (Ask Me Anything) to promote his 2020 album, McCartney II, McCartney confirmed Here Comes the Sun was one of his favourite songs from Harrison.

A previous compilation release from McCartney saw the legendary songwriter name a Brainwashed track as another favourite from Harrison’s discography.
