I think that was just a rumour. All of Rolf's stuff is still available to buy and stream on spotify and wherever. The real reason I believe was simply that they didn't want any "guest artists" on a Beatles record. That would have entitled him to half or more of the royalties on that song... a not insubstantial amount. Much easier just to have an all-Beatles track and pocket the lot. Same with the pop go the beatles theme: the lorne gibson trio claimed that they played on it and so would have had to have been paid a cut. Apple don't like third parties.
