“It’s release became a cultural moment in history, uniting listeners around the world in a shared music experience as the band released their final single.”
Sean Lennon accepted the award on behalf of The Beatles.
Sean said, “It was a big surprise because we won for the Mind Games boxed set and we were all relaxed. We thought we had gotten the speeches over with and then suddenly they said The Beatles won, unexpectantly. I was very excited.
