Interviewed by Scene And Heard host Johnny Moran, Harrison indicated that The Beatles would soon regroup and record together. He discussed Paul McCartney’s and Ringo Starr’s debut albums, and said he planned to record his own later in the year, adding that The Beatles were likely to record again soon after.

“I certainly don’t want to see the end of The Beatles,” Harrison said. “And I know I’ll do anything, you know. Whatever Paul, John, Ringo would like to do, I’ll do it. As long as we can all be free to be individuals at the same time.”
