Watch Paul McCartney embrace the past and perform The Beatles 'Let It Be' in 1990

Paul McCartney’s recent appearances have always paid homage to his past. The singer’s contribution to music with the Beatles should rightly stand in the spotlight of any performance from Sir Paul. But for a while, the singer avoided looking back at the past.

Here we relive the tour that McCartney finally embraced his past and welcomed a host of Beatles hits to his setlist. This clip sees McCartney finally assimilating his solo career with his legendary band on his world tour.

During the seventies, following The Beatles disbandment and McCartney’s pursuit of solo glory, the singer stayed away from performing the Fab Four’s tunes. He did drop a few Beatles’ numbers during the Wings 1975-76 and 1979 tours, but for the most part they had been kept aside from the McCartney’s repertoire. On The Paul McCartney World Tour, that soon changed.

1989 would see McCartney take to the road for the first time since 1979 when the Wings tour ended. The singer had disbanded the group following a drugs bust in Tokyo in 1980 had left him feeling vulnerable while on the road. But that year would also see some other classic rock alumni take to the stage.
