Share the news,” he wrote on X Tuesday. Guest’s mother, Cathy, had read about the campaign to find the Beatle’s missing bass — dubbed the Lost Bass Project and spearheaded by Höfner executive Nick Wass — in September and realized she may have the legendary string instrument sitting in her home.
She contacted Wass, who authenticated the bass and found that it was in fact the bass played by McCartney that went missing five decades prior.After some fixing up, the long-lost bass was returned to the famous musician. “Following the launch of last year’s Lost Bass project, Paul’s 1961 Höfner 500/1 bass guitar, which was stolen in 1972, has been returned,” McCartney’s team said in a statement.
“The guitar has been authenticated by Höfner and Paul is incredibly grateful to all those involved.”So how did the bass belonging to one of the most respected artists of all time end up collecting dust in a family’s attic? Investigative journalists Scott and Naomi Jones, who were a part of the project, were able to trace its path and even identify its theif — who has not been publically named — thanks to some witness accounts. The Beatles’ former sound engineers Trevor Jones and Ian Horne told the Lost Bass Project that they had parked the equipment van on the street near Jones’ home and awoke in the morning to the heavy padlock cut and its doors smashed open.

Paul McCartney still longs for “Yesterday.”Indeed, Macca remains haunted by a regretful remark he made to his late mother Mary — a lament that lives on in a legendary line from The Beatles’ 1965 No. 1 single.While “Yesterday” — which was ostensibly a McCartney solo song, with the singer strumming acoustic guitar over a sorrowful string arrangement — has always been considered a breakup ballad, the classic lyric “I said something wrong, now I long for yesterday” is actually a mea culpa to his mother.It was inspired by “feeling very embarrassed because I’d embarrassed my mom,” the 81-year-old Beatle reveals in the latest episode of his songwriter podcast “McCartney: A Life in Lyrics.”That embarrassment goes back to Macca’s mother having what he describes as a very “posh” accent.“She was of Irish origin and she was a nurse, so she was above street level,” he explains about his mom, who died from breast-cancer complications in 1956 — when the Beatle was just 14.
Paul McCartney has revealed for the first time the inspiration behind a lyric in one of his most famous songs, The Beatles’ ‘Yesterday’. The line in question is “I said something wrong, now I long for yesterday” in the song’s bridge, which appears twice in the song. In his podcast A Life in Lyrics, McCartney spoke about how the line was subconsciously inspired by a conversation he had with his mother several years before writing the song.
