    That was Billy Preston on the electric piano. He has the honor of being one of the few individuals who actually recorded with the Beatles. Obviously everyone is going to have a favorite Beatle song. I think one of their greatest masterpieces is "She's leaving home" , "A Day In the Life" is also one of my favorite classics.

I love the Beatles, they covered many genres IMO and are, unquestionably, the greatest rock-n-roll band planet earth has and will ever see. All members were icons in thier own right.

    The Beatles were unique. They are their own genre. They transcended "pop music," creating something which will live for centuries, like what we now call classical music. Lennon and McCartney were/are 2 of the greatest composers of the 20th century. They started out playing 1950s-style rock & roll, but constantly grew under the tutelage of their brilliant producer, George Martin, who was sometimes called the "fifth Beatle." My first-and-forever favorite group.

    I saw a comment here that this performance was in 1970, actually this little unannounced concert on the rooftop of their Apple label offices was January 30, 1969. Must have been a little chilly up there in January. Listen to the studio version of this, it's great. Another really good live video that I've seen a number of reactions too is the performance of the song Help from Blackpool Night Out from 1965. This is in great color and really good audio for that time of a really legendary song. Lennon kills the vocals along with great harmonies by Paul and George, you'll love it, that I promise. So happy too see you two do the actual Beatles. Their recording career between 1963-70 is unparalleled. There have been some great bands over the years like The Rolling Stones, Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd and Queen amongst others, but nothing like these four boys. You know these bands as soon as you hear them, the sound never really changes. The Beatles sound was always evolving constantly changing. Listen to them in 64 and then 67, you wouldn't know it was the same band. These guys were truly one offs, there will never be another Beatles. The Beatles and Bob Dylan, the two all time, all time GOATS and it ain't even close ! Hope too see more Beatles in the future, they will never Let You Down, get it ? ✌️☮️💕

This was shot on top of the Apple Records Studio roof and it was very impromptu. People gathered in the street below very surprised to hear them. The cops eventually had them pull the plug since they did not have permits for this event.

    Part of the brilliance of the Beatles is that they often begin their songs with the chorus, which makes the song very catchy. By the time they finish the first verse and hit the chorus, you've already heard it once and you are ready to sing along. "Get Back, "Eleanor Rigby", "We Can Work it Out", "I Feel Fine", "A Day in the Life". The list is endless

But I can't imagine how awesome they must be for people who know more than me. Because even with the composition and playing knowledge I have, listening to The Beatles is like a Master Class in performing, composition, arrangement and producing. Every phrase has you thinking, "Who would even think of doing that, like that?"

    Last time The Beatles would play together live, impromptu concert on the rooftop of Abbey Road studio, it's cool to watch the people around the area reacting to what is going on, the significance of the moment was fleeting at the time. Even the police are laying back and just watching, of course they eventually had to shut it down without realizing the historic importance of what they were witnessing and actually became a part of. Magnificent performance, albeit short, and John's famous last words after the performance in regards the The Beatles who would soon disband and never play together again: "On behalf of myself and the band I hope we passed the audition".

    A great (and can’t stress great) vocal performance by John Lennon and the plastic Ono band. “Jealous Guy”

    You two will LOVE all the feels in the movie, Get Back. It's 9 hours and worth every minute to watch them write and record two albums and shoot a documentary. All those songs were recorded live, no overdubs. This was their last "concert."

    They hadn't played live in a few years although they were busy making albums so this was kind of a unique moment. Even though the cops pulled the plug they got several songs in and a huge crowd gathered Below on the street and on other rooftops.

    One of their best! The Beatles are universal because they evolved and experimented so much. so many later rock genres can be traced back to them.

    I always really liked their song Norweigen Wood - also Let it be, Something, Blackbird, While my guitar gently weeps, eleanor rigby are a few good ones. I've watched several reaction videos to first time listeners to "let it be" and it seems to be a tear jerker. I've been knowing that song since I was a little girl so it doesn't have the same impact on me but its a beautiful song

    You guys keep coming back to the electric piano, both when BJ talks about "that synth or whatever" and when Asia at 5:45 talks about the riffs in the outro. That's BILLY PRESTON on the electric piano. If you don't know him, look him up, he had a long subsequent career within funk and gospel and was an absolutely amazing keyboardist, as you can hear. Billy's contributions to the songs on Let It Be are always spectacular, I love him.

    I am glad that generations and people have moved on and occasionally look back and listen to the Beatles
    They changed all music forever and their general message was positivity and love.

    The electric piano was being played by Billy Preston he was kind of a quiet fifth member of the beetle in this era they were having a rough patch and he was kind of the gel that gave them their groove back!

  • @TW-me4lw

    This was the last live performance they ever did. The whole "rooftop concert" (that this song came from) is something like 30-40 minutes long. Very historic performance, and you get to see them at the top of their game. No crowd noise to drown them out, either. Highly recommended. Another song I highly recommend is "I Want You (She's So Heavy)". The later Beatles are much more interesting than the earliest stuff, in my flawed opinion. There was a week, back in the day, where The Beatles had 14 of the top 100 songs being played on the radio - including ALL of the top 5 songs. When once given the opportunity to broadcast one song live, to a global audience of some 265 million people, The Beatles chose their song, "All You Need Is Love". As Ringo said in an interview, they were all about peace and love.

    I've seen the documentary filmed about 50 years ago, they had just finished writing these songs just the day before in only 3 weeks, part three is the rooftop concert. The electric piano was played by Billy Preston.

    The Beatles are like forming a super group in 1970 and sending them back in a Time Machine to 1960 so they can grow together organically over a decade-to become the greatest band EVER.

    Just say the Beatles as far as everything they did for multiple decades… The best group of all time who also wrote many of their own songs, excellent songwriter they just evolved as the decades went by until they decided to split up. They all had great solo acts as well, that just goes to show you how well they were as a group they went out on their own and did as well, I grew up during this time it was the best of time with music

    • @DMWB57

      John & Paul were the best writing team of all time, with some input from George. Magical group imo, unlike any other.

      Let it Be was their last release, but Abbey Road was actually the album they recorded last. So I'll always consider Abbey Road as their last album. And the way it ends is so fitting for it to be their last.

    She is sitting off to the side, Yoko, " the love that has no past". A lot of controversy within the band over her, some believe that she was the catalyst that ended the Beatles. He left Cynthia his first wife and son Julian for her, the song " Hey Jude", Paul wrote for Julian to help him get through the divorce.

  • @janetmroberts3208
    @janetmroberts3208 Před 2 lety

    This their last performance. It was a final farewell for the fans before they broke up. Before this they had not performed in public in year's but only worked in the studio recording new albums. They stopped performing in public because the fans screamed so much that, not only could the fans not hear the performance, but the Beatles could not hear themselves play. So they focused on creating innovative music in the studio. It is probably why they were able to be so creative and develop new sounds no one had ever heard before.

    Amazing set of songs. The Beatles decided one day to have a live concert, on top of the Apple Records Building downtown London . In other songs they show people looking at them from their work windows. Lol love the Beatles. Try I got to get you into my life. Day in the life. I am a Walrus. They are gold.
