Sir Paul McCartney guested on Monday night’s Late Show with Stephen Colbert.

Elsewhere, McCartney spoke about the art of songwriting, returning to Ed Sullivan Theatre, watching Jimi Hendrix’s wildly-out of-tune “Sgt. Pepper’s” cover, and sneaking into a movie theater to see the recently released Beatles-inspired film, Yesterday.
