Sir Paul McCartney has said his parents were “the original inspiration” for many of his songs and a huge influence on the way he approached his music.
The ex-Beatle’s revelation came in a series of insights he has provided for an exhibition of memorabilia from his own collection at the British Library.
It includes family photos from his early years in Liverpool, drawings and a postcard of the Beatles in Hamburg.
Curator Andy Linehan said the breadth of the archive was “quite exceptional”.
The show includes 35 previously unseen items from the singer’s personal collection and his own quotes about them.
