McCartney & Ringo Team Up
Paul McCartney and Ringo Starr played together at a charity show in New York at the weekend. Headliner McCartney played a number of his Beatles and solo tracks before Starr joined him on stage for a rendition of 'With A Little Help From My Friends'. Starr had already been on stage earlier in the evening to perform his own songs.
Introducing his former bandmate, McCartney said: “At this point we would like to introduce somebody to you who you know, you've heard his name. He's going to come out here and play you a little song this joyful night. Ladies and gentlemen: Billy Shears”.
During the course of the evening McCartney also paid an apparently tearful tribute to late bandmate John Lennon, and dedicated a track to new US president Barack Obama.
