Yoko One broke up The Beatles. A lot of people say that, but of course it isn't true. By the time Ono started dating John Lennon in 1966, the famous foursome were already losing interest in their partnership, wanted to explore different musical directions, and were quarreling over their management. Still, Ono often gets the blame, because she was there. Whatever lingering resentment that may have existed between Ono and former member Paul McCartney at the time of the breakup has long since dissipated- McCartney has said previously that she did not break up the band and the two of them shared the stage when Lennon was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1994. Still, it was confirmed earlier this week that the long-dead feud between the two musicians has finally, ultimately, and forever been put to rest. It's unclear why this already-settled matter is being reported as being settled again, but it's nice to know.
Incidentally, McCartney has a new album out, 'New'.
