“I’d answer the question first before challenging its truth,” Mr Durband writes in the book to McCartney, where he gave the 17 or 18 year old McCartney grades from B- to B++.

Sky reports, “A George Harrison cassette, containing previously unheard tracks written and recorded in 1978, will also be on sale at Omega Auctions in Newton-Le-Willows, Merseyside. This is estimated to fetch £3,000.

A Beatles poster which was sold in a garage sale in the US last year for $7 (£5.30), is expected to sell for £12,000.

The buyer bought it for his son, a Beatles fan, not knowing how much it was worth.

A pair of gold-rimmed glasses, without the lenses, worn by John Lennon, will also feature in the auction.”

Paul McCartney recently posted on Instagram, “Paul during the recording sessions for #VenusandMars Photo by @lindamccartney #ThrowbackThursday #TBT Learn more about the album’s launch party, including a very special performance by Professor Longhair at PaulMcCartney.com [link in bio] #PaulMcCartney #LindaMcCartney #ProfessorLonghair.”
