Paul McCartney teamed up with The Rolling Stones guitarist Ronnie Wood during his gig at London's O2 Arena tonight (December 5).
The former Beatle was playing his only London show of 2011, when towards the end of his set he told the audience he "had a surprise" for them. With that he ushered a denim-clad Wood onstage, having the guitarist play along with him on The Beatles' 1969 classic'Get Back'. At the song's finish, Wood and McCartney hugged each other before the former left the stage.
McCartney's three-hour set took in Beatles, Wings and solo material, and also saw him play a number of Beatles tracks for the first time ever in the UK, including 'The Night Before', 'The Word' and 'Come And Get It'.
The latter track, although demoed for The Beatles' 'Abbey Road' album, wasn't officially released by the band until 1996 when it came out on their Anthology series. It was a Number Seven hit for Badfinger in 1970 though, after McCartney gave them the track.
McCartney's next UK gig is at Manchester's MEN Arena on December 19, with aLiverpool date at the city's Echo Arena following a day later.
