One musical icon reached out to another Sunday when former Beatle Paul McCartney visited Graceland and left one of his guitar picks on the grave of the late Elvis Presley.
McCartney was in Memphis to play a concert at FedEx Forum as part of his "Out There" tour. McCartney said that the pick was "so Elvis can play guitar in heaven," the Associated Press reports.
He also tweeted a photo of himself inside the mansion holding one of Presley's personalized guitars.
Although Sunday's visit to Graceland was believed to be the first time McCartney visited the historic home, Presley and The Beatles famously met in Los Angeles in 1965 for just four hours. Both McCartney and Beatle John Lennon often cited Presley as an influence, covering many of his songs. Presley died at Graceland in 1977.
