THINGS WE SAID TODAY

Get out your Visa card. Paul McCartney said today that he, George Harrison and Ringo Starr are making new recordings together. "I'm working in the studio on a couple of tracks from a '60s beat group you may have heard of, called the Beatles," he said. The three surviving Beatles had already recorded something new this year -- a John Lennon song called "Free as a Bird" -- but McCartney says they have since recorded two more.
