Paul McCartney Performs "A Day in the Life"

Paul McCartney

After more than 40 years of neglecting one of the greatest songs ever recorded, on June 1st in Liverpool, Paul McCartney performed the Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band masterpiece "A Day in the Life" on stage, in front of tons of people. Fortunately, a video with decent sound quality is up on YouTube (as well as down below). Unfortunately, McCartney and band did not play the entire song, instead segueing into John Lennon's "Give Peace a Chance." Not that there's anything wrong with peace.

It's still awesome to see at least a portion of the song in a live setting. Thank you, Stereogum.
