PAUL McCartney used documentary footage of his Beatles bandmate John Lennon on his return to the stage for the first time post-lockdown.
The music legend, 79, “duetted” with the late star, killed in 1980, on a big screen for I’ve Got A Feeling. The track featured in the band’s rooftop gig in London in 1969 which was the climax to Peter Jackson’s documentary Get Back.
Sir Paul, on his Got Back tour, told the crowd in Spokane, Washington: “Peter Jackson said, ‘I can pull John’s voice out if you’d like me to’.” He played other classics on his first gig since 2019, including Hey Jude, and ended by bringing out a Ukrainian flag.
