Paul McCartney and his wife Heather had a baby girl, Beatrice Milly, on Tuesday.

The child, McCartney's fourth and Mills' first, was born three weeks early, but according to a statement, "Both she and mum are doing well. She is a little beauty and we couldn't be prouder."

The sixty-one-year-old former Beatle and the thirty-five-year-old ex-model (formerly Heather Mills) were married last June at a castle in Ireland, the second marriage for both. They met four years ago at an anti-landmine charity event. McCartney has three children -- Stella, James and Mary -- from his first wife, Linda McCartney, who died of breast cancer in 1998. He also has a stepdaughter from that marriage.

The new parents should have will have plenty of time to spend at home with the new child. Earlier this year, McCartney wrapped a world tour that ran more than a year.

“Is It True”

Brenda Lee | 1964

As the British Invasion reached its peak in 1964, Brenda Lee went from Nashville to London to record one of her hardest-rocking hits, her perky vocal backed by a stuttering, squalling guitar. That guitar was played by session musician Jimmy Page, yet to skyrocket to fame with first the Yardbirds and then Led Zeppelin. "She said to me, 'I've come here to make a record with the British sound,'" remembered producer Mickie Most. "She felt she wouldn't get the same sound in Nashville because they're only just catching up on the British beat group sound of about six months ago."
