BMG have announced today, following last year’s news that they were taking over the administration of George’s publishing, that — in conjunction with Dark Horse Records — they will now also handle his solo recordings catalogue, with his solo albums now available in Dolby Atmos on Apple Music to mark his 80th birthday.

The full statement can be read here.

Variety are reporting rumours from multiple sources Paul has recently recorded bass parts (“parts” maybe suggesting more than one song) for an upcoming Rolling Stones “project” (one would surmise an album) with the producer Andrew Watt — Grammy producer of the year in 2021. It’s also suggested that Ringo is going to contribute to the unannounced album (what do they do after the death of Charlie? Makes no sense to try and replace him at this point in their career, so makes sense they’d use session drummers and maybe a few star(r) guests on drums).

Dump on a rejected George solo and some harmonies by John and you’ve got the ultimate supergroup AND a Beatles reunion not on a Beatles song so the fans don’t get into arguments of whether it’s a true Beatles song.

Haha weird…Sirius Radio started playing the Stones while I was typing that; and then followup with this

…oh wait, now the song’s ended and the DJ is specifically talking about the newsworthy news, so obviously the pairing wasn’t a coincidence

One day, a tape-op got a tape on backwards, he went to play it, and it was all "Neeeradno-undowarrroom" and it was "Wow! Sounds Indian!"
