The Beatles split up in 1970 after they finished writing and recording their final album, Let It Be. John Lennon, Paul McCartney, Ringo Starr and George Harrison all went their separate ways after ten years of being in a world-famous band, selling millions of records and touring the world. McCartney released his first solo record in April 1970 - one month before Let It Be came out in May 1970 - and included within it an ode to his former band, Man We Was Lonely.
