LONDON - A film enthusiast has discovered a long-lost interview with the Beatles that has not been broadcast since it was conducted in 1964.
Richard Jeffs came across 64 canisters of film stored in a damp garage in South London, and when he started to go through them, he stumbled across pop history.
When asked in the interview how he and Paul McCartney collaborated on songs, John Lennon replied, "Sometimes we write them on old pianos, anything that's lying around."
McCartney added, "Normally, we . . . try and bash one out. But then again, there's no formula, because [John] can come up with one [in] one day completely finished. We still say we both wrote it, though."
