On May 8, 1970, the Beatles released their 12th and final studio album. Since then, fans have been playing their classic hits to relieve some of the precious memories they associate the tracks with.
More recently, it has been confirmed that another album from the legendary group is coming out soon which includes the voice of John Lennon; how is it possible? (via Ultimate Classic Rock)
One of the surviving members, Paul McCartney, recently spoke with BBC Radio 4's "Today" to promote his newly-published photo book called "1964: Eyes of the Storm."
During his conversation with the radio hosts, the musician revealed that the final album of the Beatles is done recording and would be released within the next few months.

John Lennon has been deceased for decades now that's why it's impossible for him to be physically present at the recording of their new album.
However, since the music industry today has been using a lot of technology to bring out the voices of late musicians, artificial intelligence or AI plays a big role on the project.
Speaking about the album, McCartney said when they came to make what would be the last record of the Beatles, it was based on a demo that his old pal worked on.

"We were able to take John's voice and get it pure through this AI so that then we could mix the record as you would normally do - it gives you some sort of leeway," he added.
The bassist said there are both the good side and the scary side and he couldn't wait where it would take them.
As of this writing, Paul McCartney has yet to reveal the official release date of the Beatles' album.

Without further giving away details regarding the project, the musician gave fans a short insight into the record, saying Peter Jackson, the director of the Beatles' documentary "Get Back," was the one who showed him how artificial intelligence works.
At the time of working on the film, which was released in 2021, the bassist said the director was able to "extricate John's voice from a ropey little bit of cassette."
The cassette had the voice of John Lennon and Jackson separated the vocals from the instrumental sound.
This isn't the first time the surviving members worked on a project under the Beatles as Paul McCartney, George Harrison, and Ringo Starr worked on John Lennon's demos "Free as a Bird" and "Real Love" in the mid-90s under the compilations "Anthology 1" and "Anthology 2."
