'The only way for me to save The Beatles and Apple (Records) ... was to sue the band,' Paul McCartney told British GQ.
"I was thought to be the guy who broke The Beatles up and the b------ who sued his mates. And, believe me, I bought into that. That’s the weirdest thing. It was so prevalent that for years I almost blamed myself," he said in anThe legendary English rock band, formed in 1960, lasted a decade before splitting in 1970. McCartney ended up suing the band after disputes with manager Allen Klein.
"I drank way too much and did too much of everything," he told GQ."And it was crazy, but I knew that was the only thing to do, because there was no way I was going to save it for me, because there was no way I was going to work that hard for all my life and see it all vanish in a puff of smoke. I also knew that, if I managed to save it, I would be saving it for them too. Because they were about to give it away. They loved this guy Klein.
After the split, McCartney says he became depressed and turned to alcohol to cope. He credits his first wife, Linda McCartney, with helping him out of his fog. When they first met, she was in a rough spot: divorced, raising a child and fending for herself in New York, he recalls.
