Paul McCartney wins Grammy for 'Helter Skelter'
(Reuters) - Former Beatle Paul McCartney won his first solo Grammy in 39 years on Sunday for a live recording of "Helter Skelter."
McCartney took home the solo rock vocal performance statuette for the 42-year-old Beatles tune, which he dusted off for his 2009 live album "Good Evening New York City."
It marked his 14th Grammy, of which 10 were Beatle-related, spanning 1965 to a reissue project in 1997.
As a solo artist, he last won a Grammy in 1972 for his arrangement of "Uncle Albert/Admiral Halsey." He followed that with a pair for Wings, his post-Beatles vehicle, in 1975 and 1980.
McCartney, 68, frequently lands Grammy nominations -- 11 since 2005 alone -- but has been bested by the likes of Bruce Springsteen, Amy Winehouse and Justin Timberlake.
The 53rd annual Grammy Awards were handed out at the Staples Centre in Los Angeles.

Re: Paul McCartney wins Grammy for 'Helter Skelter'
Is Paul McCartney really Paul McCartney or is he really Faul the replacement?
Is Helter Skelter a coded message?
Oh no what can all this mean?
All this conspiracy in an innocent little reuters breaking news article and it's only Monday
