Description:
I have the right to edit or remove user comments at my will. Vulgar, hate, redundant or otherwise. I haven't blocked them all because some are actually informative. Please read them if you want to know some Beatles history."Get Back""Don't Let Me Down"Thursday - 30 January 1969Apple Corps (Roof), LondonThe Beatles' celebrated rooftop show. An idea conceived during a meeting on 26 January, it was the first of two consecutive Beatles/Billy Preston performances which concluded the Get Back project, for on 31 January they ran through numbers inside the basement studio.This day's work has passed into history as the Beatles' last live performance, even if it couldn't be classified as a concert. The 42-minute show (about half of which comprises the sensational close to the Let It Be film) was a lunchtime blast into the cold wind - imagine a high London rooftop in January - that brought part of the capital to a standstill, until the police, in turn, brought the show to an enforced conclusion.Much was commercially used from the 42 minutes on the roof, in the Let It Be film and on the Get Back (unissued) and Let It Be albums. What follows is a detailed description of the full rooftop repertoire, as preserved on EMI's eight-track tapes, with a guide to how it was made available.

Jan 31, 2012 - A friend of mine once said "they were so tight, it sounds exactly like the album versions".I didn't want to tell him that the songs he's referring to on Let it Be are actually the live recordings from this gig!
MrCeej9999 Says:
Jan 31, 2012 - Love the affection between John and Paul when they play live. Such chemistry.People think they hated each other. Not true. Lennon just got to a point in his life where he generally hated everyone! He fell out with George Harrison around the same time as well

Feb 2, 2012 - I don't know if it was ignored, but I remember CBS News showing a clip of "Two of Us" on the nightly news..Back then network news was very serious and never reported on celebrity stuff unless someone died..so I was very shocked and still remember it

Feb 2, 2012 - thanks Dept of Revenue, i didn't see that CBS news clip....wonder if CBS showed that in Jan. of 1969 at time of the rooftop concert, or if they showed that when the movie and album were released almost 1 and 1/2 years later in 1970...

Feb 3, 2012 - Ringo said when they had new music and were excited about a track all the Bull shit went out the window!! You can see it here!!! They may have had their differences but in the end they loved each other!!
FaerieCrone Says:
Feb 3, 2012 - I agree. Even John himself said that all the loathing he directed at others was self-loathing at that time.

ratsalad123ify Says:
Feb 13, 2012 - I read they did this because they weren't getting along while recording the album. Sort of like, remember, boys, you were once a nifty and rockin' live band. Go up and remember it. That explains why it's on the roof of the recording studio. But, of course, it was too late. But they were a nifty and rockin' live band.
