Sir Cliff Richard has again proved his rock’n’roll credentials by slamming The Beatles for recording with out of tune guitars.

The veteran popstar says in a new interview with Q Magazine that he’s mystified as to why the Fab Four released music featuring “horrific” guitar solos.

"Some of the guitar is so out of tune it's unbelievable,” he muses “I couldn't believe that here they were in this hi-tech age and they couldn't go back and do it with a tuned guitar."

Don’t scoff kids – Sir Cliff knows what he’s talking about. Well, he must do because, as he explains, “I’ve sold more singles than...everybody."

Expect Celine Dion’s expose on Bob Dylan’s singing voice in next month’s issue.
