"At the moment we haven't tried that," he said of recording with only the surviving Beatles. "It just seems more natural if John's there. It seems like a better idea. Even though we talked about it, when we actually got hold of the two John songs, then it was the Beatles. Then people can't say, 'Well, there's only three of you.' And they can't say, 'You should get Julian in,' or 'You should get Sean in.' | "At the moment we haven't tried that," he said of recording with only the surviving Beatles.
