The star recently described The Beatles ‘punks’ in the Martin Scorsese documentary George Harrison: Living In The Material World. He said: “We were punks really. We were just incredibly grateful to be on the vinyl really. The idea of getting a record and then we’d be on the radio, we’d stop the car and we’d drive on up to the gig.”
