It's The Beatles...NOTHING BUT PERFECION
Beatles “ Revolution “
Billy Preston,killing it on the keys !
The amazing thing about the Beatles is that they created all this incredible music and they were only in their 20's.
And were only together 9 or 10 years...
Love the little smile on all their faces during the "She done me good" verse...
Billy Preston on piano. Perfect.
This is the music from my era...boy the memories this song brings back....carefree life....youth....no responsibilities...
Billy Preston is on keyboards. He was called the 5th Beatle.
Not pickin', but their producer, George Martin at EMI records was widely and openly called the "fifth Beatle". This was filmed on the roof of the EMI studios on Abbey Road in London.
I wish the camera had hit him more. His playing added so much to the rooftop concert.
@@lextek. there are like 10 "fifth beatle"s lol
I love your smile! John absolutely does have a great voice and vocal range. They were ALL so talented and all came from Liverpool. What were the odds of 4 such talented guys meeting up when they were young, and ended up becoming the most popular band ever? John met Paul when he was 16. It took off from there!
I think this may have been their last ever "live performance"?? One thing that I've come to appreciate about The Beatles recently is just how good of a bass player Paul McCartney was. If you zero in on and really listen to that base guitar during songs like this, it's absolutely melodic. Amazing musicianship across the entire band!
Gods.
You just got to listen to 'while my guitar gently weeps' - it's simply outta this world❣️
There's The Beatles... and then there's everyone else. They are their own genre. Their songs loom large in my funeral rites!
I was 9 when they exploded into everyone’s psyche in England with Love Me Do.
The world suddenly went from noir black and white to vivid colour.
The 60’s was utterly magical,and these boys played a HUGE part in that.
Such sweet carefree days were the vibe was music and parties,and parties and music.
When that Time Machine is invented,I’m getting a one way ticket at the front to 1963.
One of my favorites from the Beatles 🥰 John's voice was so pure and raw.
Musical geniuses. They are doing that live. N0 auto tune.
This brought tears to my eyes, especially hearing John Lennon singing lead vocals.......RIP Great One!!! Thank you for this, it also brought great memories back too 😊 Please continue to journey with the Beatles, you will not be disappointed!
Yep! Dude with the glasses is John Lennon, one with the suit is Paul McCartney, drummer is Ringo Starr, and the guy with the big fur coat and green pants is George Harrison!
This is the last public concert they played together, rooftop concert for all to hear
Just found your channel, as a Beatles fan for almost 60 yrs, may I say welcome to Beatlemania. Enjoy the ride
This was recorded at the rooftop of the Apple (Beatles Label not the Apple Phone of today) Studios and Offices in London....I think 1969. If you look at the frame with the British Police, that shows you the organist, Billy Preston. Billy played on the Let It Be album which this song is from. Eventually, the police told the Beatles not to play anymore due to noise concerns on the roof.
Interesting!
Don't let me down wasn't actually on the let it be album and in fact was the B side of the Get Back single.
Paul's ,little Elvis shuffle is classic.
I've seen John do that "Elvis shuffle", as you call it, more than Paul. John does it in one of the old live black and white videos, maybe when he's using the fake Italian and introducing the song Help! George does it in one of his solo videos, years later.
@@debjorgo Thanks for your nice note.
@@danallshaw1131 I just thought of it. John does it again at the end of the Hello Goodbye video.
@@debjorgo Good eye on catching that.
“Come Together” and “Here Comes The Sun” are another two other great Beatles songs you should definitely check out! :)
Thanks for the suggestion! I’ll add those the list!
Lennon had one of the best rock/pop voices of all time, and this was one of their most beautiful, melodic songs (among so many)😉
Même après 55 ans à peu près !!!! toujours aussi bon !!!!! On revient toujours aux Beatles 💕
That's The Beatles my brother .....and that was what it was all about from 1962-1970......period Peace and Love
The great Billy Preston on keys off camera.
They often used him and they were great friends,The Rolling Stones also incorporated Billy.
The fifth Beatle indeed.
Such a great song. ❤️✌️
It's very cool that a whole new generation will carry this beautiful music on. Play it forward. ❤️✌️
the beatles did just about everything when it came to song styles. you can't go wrong with just about any selection from them. thank you, and keep up the great reactions! you are in my top five reactors, and i just started listening and watching, so i am really looking forward to your videos. plus so far, you don't interrupt the song, which has stopped me from subscribing to so many, no matter what they might say. you are already ahead of the game in that respect.
Yep, it's John Lennon singing lead vocals on this song (The previous song you reacted to was sung by George Harrison).
Seems like a lot of people are recommending Come Together, and I also recommend it. That one's also written and sung by John.
I’ve always loved the fact that they just played their last concert without warning on the roof of their studio. The people on the street were just the local workers and then you see the excitement as word gets out among the young office workers . Comically there were old farts trying to get the coppers to shut it down
Not really. If you saw the "Let It Be" movie (1970), some of the supporters were old guys and some of the detractors were younger businessmen.
I'm new to your Channel....I love the way you listen to a video without interrupting / pausing it , especially during a guitar solo...that's a no no...lol You cannot go wrong with the Beatles...awesome! Love to see you loving on our oldies that we grew up with...such a pleasure to see young folks enjoying our music! Keep up the good work...Have a Happy and Healthy New Year ...
There are so many songs I could recommend for you to react to that the Beatles have. They are great. Here's a few songs. "Hey Jude", " Let It Be", "Come Together", "Hold Your Hand", "I Saw Her Standing There." There are so many more. Thanks.
The one, and only Beatles, the GOATS! They started a musical revolution. My Holy Trinity of Music. The Beatles, Led Zeppelin, and the Eagles! 😎🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
That IS John Lennon on lead vocals, George Harrison on wondrous soul lead guitar (channeling his friend Jimi Hendrix's soul-funk stylings), of course Ringo grooving on the drums, and Paul McCartney delivering one of his grooviest bass sides. And canna we give praise -- HIGH PRAISE -- to the great BILLY PRESTON on the keys; Billy Preston would go on to become a major soul-rock/funk star in his own right during the 1970s after the Beatles broke up, writing and performing such hits as "Will It Go Round In Circles," "Nothing from Nothing," and the like. An American master, Billy Preston met and became a brah of the band in Hamburg, Germany, way back in the early 1960s, when Billy and the Fab Fah ("fab four," aka "The Beatles") were all unknown, rough-n-ready R&B soul rockers.
The Beatles, of course, exert influences to this very day: Michael Jackson made Lennon's high octave impovs at the end a signature of his own stylings, and the sheer diversity and wild innovation of the Beatles' range -- boy band, avant garde experimentation, heavy metal, World Music/Indian Raga, blues, folk, funk-rock, etc., etc., --directly influenced that also wildly diverse,wonderfully weird, blazingly innovative rock genius PRINCE, himself. The Beatles' "concept album" format -- Rubber Soul, Revolver, Sgt. Pepper's, Abbey Road, et al.--influenced such towering rock-era geniuses as Marvin Gaye (What's Goin' On), Stevie Wonder (Inner Visions, Songs in the Key of Life, etc.), as well as the concept album breakthroughs of later generation titans, such as Eminem and Dre, (Dre and Eminem are arguably the Lennon-McCartney of Rap/Hip Hop, I wager), Mary Blige, and of course, Beyoncé.
But in a way, there's a poetic, poignant justice in all of this, as African-American musical genius, culture(s),and complex intellectualism exerted ENORMOUS, lifelong influence upon the Beatles, as songs such as "Something" and "Don't Let Me Down" so clearly demonstrate.
Billy Preston met the Beatles while backing Little Richard. Both Richard and the Beatles shared several gigs in Britain and Hamburg.
@@deborahphillips500 : EXACTLY! Talk about historic gigs, I mean, Billy, Little Richard, the Beatles, "Dah Fuq??!!"
Great reaction, I like to see young people hearing the music of my youth, this was the last time the Beatles played live, and it was the great Billy Preston on the Fender Rhodes that really makes this song. Please react to Joe Cocker doing "With a Little Help from My Friends", live at The Metropol, it's next level, thank you!!
Come together will change your life.
I think of this song as Beatles soul music, John Lennon's equivalent of Ben E. King's "Stand By Me" which John did a great version of as well.
The legendary Billy Preston on keyboards!
Gotta hit the early Beatles too
I wish more people started from the beginning, for one of the brilliant aspects of the Beatles is their remarkable growth and evolution in such a short span.
@@fuchsiaswing8545 yes but all these people request the typical songs…Don’t Let Me Down although brilliant in its own right is no where near their best and that’s not an opinion
Hit up oh darling by the Beatles you won’t regret it
Do a reaction to OH, DARLING by the Beatles. Paul McCartney sings the lead on that song.
I remember watching this on TV as it happened.
They are all singers and song writers. Paul is my favorite and his music after the Beatles really shined a light on just how talented he was. His first album after the Beatles he recorded by himself at home; he played all instruments and did all vocals and none of his recording equipment was professional because all their money was tied up in litigation and they were living in pretty rustic conditions living off of Linda's savings. His next band was called, Paul McCartney and The Wings. Here is one song he did by himself. czcams.com/video/cdDPR8GzXy8/video.html
I assembled the Fender Rhodes Electric Piano that Billy Preston is playing in this recording. And many others in the R&R of that time.
I like the path you are on!
Yes, John's singing lead and wrote the song.
I’m a new sub and really enjoying your reactions. I’m 69 and love how generations are coming together through music❤❤❤
Still on the journey... great reactions. 🤔 One of my favs.
Shout out Billy Preston
I just bought an exact copy of the Epiphone Casino Guitar John is playing. I own a copy of his Rickenbacker 325. They sit side by side in my music room.
HEY JUDE!
STRAWBERRY FIELDS FOREVER!
The best there ever was.
New subscriber here...thanks for your reaction...you're sound quality is great! Looking forward to more! Your friends from northeast Florida
Thanks for subbing!
The word diverse hardly covers the Beatles, They had three excellent song writers and singers and played together since very young.. , Through hard clubs with long shifts as unknowns, playing old time rock n roll standards mostly, Some ballads , Then after their first album started writing thier own material and every album was a revelation of new music . But you had to live through the times to really get that aspect fully ..
♡
I wonder each time that I watch this video why Billy Preston isn't shown when his keyboards are such an important part of the song
I agree!
mr bill preston on keyboard!!
yes it is John
I'm old enough to remember the world before the Beatles. It was cr@p.
Billy Preston on keys.
React to Oh darling and Come together
a somewhat sad commentary on the times; poor billy preston, so far back on that rooftop, it looks like is about to fall off of it. this was truly a FIVE piece performance, and he deserves major credit here. as well as on many beatles tracks. HE was totally the 5th beatle, no matter what anyone else tells you. his keyboard work is simply fab. check out some of his solo stuff some time ("nothing from nothing", or "will it go round in circles").
Check out Brief History of the BeaTles
Check out “ Come Together “
I reacted to that one, check it out! Come Together - Beatles (Reaction) | HOW BOUT THAT BASS!!!!
czcams.com/video/B7kT4sWy3pU/video.html
Yeah, that's John Lennon. Great voice.
👍
Nice reaction, ye this was John Lennon.
Not one bad song from the Beatles
Somebody beat me to the punch. I was just gonna say Billy Preston's keyboards are all over this track, but where is he? That just ain't right.
You should now do the video from this same Apple Roof Top performance, "I'VE GOT A FEELING"... czcams.com/video/fTZ804WxpGg/video.html
