Which beatle had the first hit after The Beatles broke up?

Close call between Paul McCartney Maybe I'm Amazed 20 April,1970, and George Harrison My Sweet Lord 15 Jan, 1971 Its John Lennon "give peace a chance " 1969The above would be true if Lennon had been solo. In addition it would all be different if the question was more closely defined as:"Which ex-Beatle was the first to have a solo hit". This may be the question you wish to ask.The whole thing is debatable here. For one thing Lennon's song was released as part of the Plastic Onon Band and hence wasn't solo.As the Beatles were officially disbanded in April 71, the Ex-Beatle term cannot be applied to George Harrison.Under the strictest terms of being after the Beatles actually split and with a solo career, the honour goes to Ringo Starr and "It don't come easy". It's notable that in fact the one of two of the Beatles has music hits whilst still firmly together, writing film scores and songs for others; McCartney for example.If the criteria are:1. Ex-Beatle2. Solo hitRingo fulfills both of these. Lennon fails on point two and Harrison on point one.
