LOS ANGELES – Paul McCartney and Ringo Starr, the two living members of legendary English rock group The Beatles, have reunited for a cover of their 1970 hit Let It Be on American country singer Dolly Parton’s upcoming rock album.
She dropped the single last Friday ahead of the November release of her album Rockstar. McCartney sang and played piano, while Starr played drums on the recording.
Parton, 77, said that two other music luminaries joined the collaboration. Peter Frampton played guitar and Mick Fleetwood of Fleetwood Mac did percussion.
“I mean, seriously, how much better does it get?” Parton wrote on X, formerly known as Twitter.
The Rockstar album was inspired by her induction into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in 2022. It will include nine original songs and 21 covers with an all-star list of collaborators, such as Elton John, Miley Cyrus, Stevie Nicks, Debbie Harry, Joan Jett and Chris Stapleton. REUTERS
