Manager David Holmes says, "They are definitely hungry to get back in the studio to make another record. They've got a lot of material.

Speaking of musicians, Donovan says the British police treated the Beatles like superstars (except for drug busts).

He recalls, "Paul came to the door and the policeman said, 'Oh, it's you, Mr McCartney. Is it your car, sir? A sports car?'

"Paul gave him the keys and the car was parked - by the starstruck policeman!

"A few minutes later he returned with the keys and saluted, would you believe."
