Michael and Paul McCartney appear on Sun cover for Let It Be charity report

Michael Jackson and Paul McCartney appear on the cover of The Sun in Britain after permission is given for “Let It Be” to be recorded for the Zeebrugge Tragedy Fund.

The item is part charity story and part Beatles-publishing context. By this point, Michael’s ownership of ATV Music Publishing meant his connection to Lennon-McCartney songs was a regular public talking point.

This page should eventually include the charity recording details, the exact permission process and coverage of the Zeebrugge fundraising release.
