The trio were joined by guitarist Pat Smear to play the track again on the US TV show, while McCartney also teamed up with Eagles guitarist Joe Walsh for a rendition of “My Valentine”.

The full details of the Sound City soundtrack were revealed earlier this week. Titled Sound City – Real To Reel, it will also feature collaborations between Grohl and Stevie Nicks of Fleetwood Mac – on “You Can’t Fix This” – and between Grohl, Queens Of The Stone Age frontman Joshua Homme and Nine Inch Nails man Trent Reznor, who team up on a song called “Mantra”.

The soundtrack also features appearances from Peter Hayes and Robert Levon Been of Black Rebel Motorcycle Club, Taylor Hawkins of Foo Fighters and Queens Of The Stone Age associate Alain Johannes.
