During an interview with UK Music Reviews, The Isley Brothers’ Ernie Isley discussed meeting the Fab Four. “We had finished playing a show recently and after I had come off the stage, my wife said, ‘Paul McCartney’s sitting over there,'” he recalled. “Well, he was sitting three or four tables away and let me tell you, I didn’t need telling twice. So, I walked over to where he was sitting and tapped him on the shoulder.”
