Despite the fact that they’ve written some of the most famous songs of all time, Paul McCartney and John Lennon of The Beatles NEVER learned how to read music.

When asked about Paul McCartney and Beatles drummer Ringo Starr in a 1980 interview with Playboy magazine, John had this to say:

I think Paul and Ringo stand up with any of the rock musicians. Not technically great — none of us are technical musicians. None of us could read music. None of us can write it. But as pure musicians, as inspired humans to make the noise, they are as good as anybody.

(From OMG Facts)

Who needs music theory then? Nah.. i have nothin against music theory. It’s just great to know you don’t need to learn reading or writing notes. Hahaha.
