Paul McCartney denied "Electric Arguments" song was lifted from old blues tune

Paul McCartney has denied that a track from "Electric Arguments" was pinched from an old blues song, reports NME.com at Abbeyrd's Beatles Page first made you aware of this issue on Nov. 29 and Nov. 30. In the album liner notes for "Electric Arguments," Paul acknowledged the Blind Willie Johnson blues song "Let Your Light Shine On Me" had inspired EA's "Light From Your Lighthouse." But, as they told NME, "It's true that The Fireman used the Blind Willie Johnson track as inspiration for our own song," they said. "His is a traditional song and this is not the first time an artist has made their own version using such a traditional song."
