Paul McCartney was joined onstage by Bruce Springsteen last night (June 16) as he closed out his US ‘Got Back’ tour at the MetLife Stadium in New Jersey.
The Beatles legend and New Jersey's favourite son teamed up to perform Springsteen's Born In The USA-era classic Glory Days, plus Lennon and McCartney's I Wanna Be Your Man, recorded by The Rolling Stones, and released as a single by Mick Jagger's band on November 1 1963. The song was also recorded by The Beatles, with drummer Ringo Starr on vocals, for the band's second UK album, With The Beatles, released on November 22, 1963.
McCartney described Springsteen's guest cameo at the show as a “birthday present to myself.”
Watch the footage below:
McCartney later posted a photo of the collaboration on Twitter, captioning it 'Glory Days with Bruce Springsteen'.
