The Beatles have added another prestigious accolade to their already illustrious career by winning the Grammy award for best rock performance for their song 'Now and Then.' This win marks the legendary band's eighth Grammy win, with their last win dating back to 1997 for 'The Beatles Anthology' and 'Free As a Bird.'
The award was presented during the Grammys Premiere Ceremony, and it was accepted by Sean Ono Lennon, the son of John Lennon and Yoko Ono. The Beatles received two nominations this year for 'Now and Then,' making it their 24th and 25th nominations as a band.
'Now and Then' is a significant track for The Beatles as it is referred to by Paul McCartney as 'the last Beatles song.' The song features original vocals recorded by the late Lennon in 1970, which were restored using artificial intelligence. Additionally, the track includes new instrumentation contributed by McCartney and Ringo Starr, the surviving members of the band, as well as guitar recordings by the late George Harrison from the '90s.
The Beatles' enduring impact on the music industry is evident through their numerous Grammy wins and nominations. Their latest win for 'Now and Then' not only showcases their timeless talent but also pays tribute to their legacy as one of the greatest bands in music history.
