John out of all of the Beatles changed visually the most. I can hardly see the Hard Days Night John here (even though it was just 5 years earlier) but beneath that hair and beard is that magnificent Lennon voice.
This is the John Abbey Road look. The same as the famous album cover. He went through several looks. I like his Sgt. Pepper , Magical Mystery tour mustache glasses look the best. Let it Be had him with no mustache or beard and hair getting long.The Abbey Road look is a little more hair growth than Let it Be plus the Big Beard added.
I remember buying this album back in 1969. Came with a really nice calendar! Who would think I would watch the concert over 50 years later? Amazing. You visualize of what The concert was like. Then you get the actually video!
@@sturdeehouse I forgot about this clip, and everything was great except for Yoko, I never understood Lennon's attraction but she was with him off and on for the rest of his life, so it wasn't a passing fancy....
I was there as a 17 year old. We had no idea that Lennon and Clapton were going to appear. We were there to see the old rockers, plus Alice Cooper, the Doors and Chicago (Transit Authority). Amazingly, the small stadium wasn’t even full.
She memorised her own pieces to be fair. Just needed the words for Yer Blues and Cold Turkey! 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 I do love her though, and I can put up with more Yoko wailing onstage than Clapton being racist. Yoke’s proper songs with words in them are often very beautiful, and I’d point to Take Me To The Land Of Hell as one of her best.
I was there and got to go backstage too. It was so amazing to see the Rock and Roll Revival show with late great Jerry Lee Lewis and Bo Diddley, Little Richard, Chuck Berry, Eric Clapton and John and Yoko and a quite wrecked Jim Morrison and the Doors
In 1985 I was working in Dallas. I used to go to a bar called Poor Richards in Garland. Bo Diddley was playing one night. While playing some chick in the back kept yelling, you suck, you can't play for shit. Can't you sing? All kinds of stuff. Bo stopped playing and leaned into the microphone and said, "Well, if you think you can do betta dan me, get you fukkin ass up heah." She did, and she played and sang her ass off. She was amazing. She left with Bo later, arm in arm... LOL. It may have been a set up. but she was good. Saw Stevie Ray there too. Great bar.
I don't know why John didn't like his voice. It was so beautiful. His songs would have been nothing,even though they were genious, without the beauty of his beautiful sounding voice.
I've read about this concert for about forty years. John sounds good, and the band sounds good considering they hadn't practiced I don't think. It was quite a coup to have Eric Clapton there too. However, Yoko's crap absolutely destroys this show. What a horrifying piece of crap she put on that day. I know he was in love, but what the hell was wrong with John allowing this stupid woman on stage?
Pretty sure that was the whole point of this particular concert: Toronto rock n roll revival festival. Lennon was a last min addition to the lineup, which helped attendance I'm sure but all those rock n roll greats all got bumped to earlier performances and lennon took top billing at a concert ostensibly for originators. Kinda lame for them if ya think about it.
very nice voice Too bad we lost such a great singer. He truly had an exceptional voice and the talent of a great composer.I like the way Yoko does with her voice it gives the impression of being lead guitar
@@musicmike1960 I would pay her not to sing. A true story. Joe Pesci worked in a restaurant across from my deli. He played guitar from table to table. He ate everyday in my store. He was a terrible singer. I would actually give him the sandwich FREE not to come near us!! He was also a good friend who prank called me daily ( during the busiest hours of course )
In this day on 27th, just after a day after Christmas from a tiny state of mizoram in the Indian union, I declare again that I love the Beatles and John Lenon.
George Harrison has said that Lennon asked him if he wanted to play with the band in Toronto...but George didn't want to do the "screaming" Yoko bit...so he said no!
I was there. It was like John stepped off the album cover of the Abby Road album. The sounds of yoko screeching and echoing across the dark Toronto skyline was surrealistic. Then the Doors closed the concert. A truly memorable experience!
Mr. Lennon has a good command of the stage, and it doesn't matter if he's playing alongside a guitar virtuoso. He's still playing his best role: a main rock star and a real rock n roller...
I actually find this video quite sad... Lennon seems to be a shadow of himself, I find him quite uncomfortable which is understandable after years of no touring and the absence of his old mates. and really embarrasing to hear Yoko's contribution as a screaming goat... she had to read the lyrics where all that was written was hiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii but that's nothing new, avant guarde they said
@@L0REN0R2Z0RR0 Elvis and Orbison were good singers, that's all. Their defining impact on rock & rock was minimal. And Carl Perkins? Are you kidding? barely worth mentioning.
I was there. It was the night of the Howling Hag! When John Lennon let Yoko do her set i said to my friends, it’s time for me to leave and not put myself through anymore torture
When my stepfather would take a nap I timed it perfectly to play the Yoko Song this on his giant Marantz Turntable after I left the house. He became distorted, withdrawn and confused for the next few days. Of course so did Eric Clapton after this fiasco. She was some kind of talent.
🤷..um.. it's little Richard, not little Richards. ..that's Kieth your thinkin' of I think. ..if your gonna make him King, fine; but at least get his Name right.👍 🙄🤦
At the beginning of this video, I can recognize the old expressway scenes of Toronto 1969 (before I was born). There was the Hwy 427 going out of Pearson Airport (at the tiem called the Airport Expressway), and the old interchange at highway 401, and the Gardner Expressway in downtown Toronto.
Pretty wild to think that Lennon was so nervous about the prospect of headlining and performing on the same stage after his heroes, it's said he was throwing up on the plane to Toronto. Even though he was in the biggest band in the world at the time, he was in awe of his idols!
Great songs he played, early Beatles covers. I don't think people cared what he played, they just wanted to see the man! I like the studio version of "Cold Turkey" better than this LIVE performance. 🦃
Una pena que Yoko no se haya ubicado jamás dentro de su propio arte sin inmiscuirse en lo musical arruinando parcialmente un recital con músicos de la talla de Lennon y Clapton. Mas allá de eso, qué linda época ! Parecía que lo que vendría en los 80 y 90 sería superador... craso error... y ni hablar de los 2000... creo que los Poderes hicieron "bien" su trabajo.... aplastaron esta revolución en gestación y ahora siguen contaminando nuestra juventud con el reagaton y toda esa mierda que insulta el buen gusto y por sobre todo la buena música. Al menos ese es mi punto de vista. Saludos a todos !!
Lennon's Toronto line up could have been a great band. The elements are there but you can also hear that they're a bit under rehearsed. Still they pulled it off. Yoko is usually pretty unpopular in these settings but some context is deserved. Her first husband was an atonal avant garde composer, and she also spent a lot of time with John Cage. She was trying to bring that kind of aesthetic to pop music. It did not work in this context but a lot of what she did later caught on in the punk/new wave era. Lennon when hearing the B52's Rock Lobster believed that they were inspired by Yoko's strange vocal gestures and was excited that her time "had finally come" in his opinion.
Clapton KILLS! Fantastic solos. I think Lennon is the best RnR singer ever. YOKO …..stay in the bag, love you though❤️. Actually on Cold Turkey I dug it GO YOKO!
The Yoko Dolphin Primal Scream is like the sound of Rock Lobster being boiled with John holding a Megaphone to record her incredible ear piercing talent. Even today it still makes me go for the volume knob regardless what is in the way.
I stopped the video, to read some comments, let it load long enough so when I went back to the video I could easily fast forward thru most of the screeching.
Yeh but Rock Lobster is a great song sung by great singers and by a great band! This just a strung out 60s hippy who no one will stand up to and say, ",Sorry John- not having it!!"
Thanks for posting this. It was a real treat to see all of those great musicians. I tried my best , but I could only watch as far as 38:43 and then I had to stop.
when i see Paul mc Cartney, George Harrison, live each one in their own concert, i dont think too much about the Beatles, but when i see John Lennon and hear him i feel the Beatles are together, cause he was the lead vocal of the band.
Äh he wasn´t but off course Paul and George lacked of any R+R feeling after 1969. Just listen to bilble-freak-songs like Long And Winding Road, Let It Be or All Things Must Pass. There is no R+R at all.
@@gretchenhans4183 i know what you mean, but in the 3 first albums the Beatles recorded, John's vocal were in almost all hits from the 60s,those hits sang by John in the beginning made the Beatles gain popularity all over the world before they arrived to the USA, John's voice was very catchy, that every band wanted to imitated the Beatles, The Hollies, the Herman's Hermits,The Monkees with Dave jones, the Bee Gees ,in the early recordings( critics told them ,you guy sound like The Beatles, you got to change your style, )
Bo Diddley is one of the best profmrimg artists I've seen live. Certainly of those perofmeing in the 50s I saw no one as good as him. Alas there were many I didn't get to see but of the few I have seem, he was out of his world.
@@experi-mentalproductions5358 without being there in person at this out door gig, I couldn't say, as this isn't the whole gig. When I saw him at the Jazz café though he was amazing.
Almost every live recording by John Lennon has forever been marred by Yoko’s annoying wailing in the background. What John saw in her I’ll never understand.
I've heard that Yoko was stalking Paul and John and John didn't like her at first. I think what changed his mind was that he was jealous of Paul enjoying the bachelor life and the Avant Garde art scene and that Yoko was a reliable Heroin connection.
I'm nearly 70 years old now. I suppose I will never understand why anyone would give Yoko a microphone and let her sing, much less sing over John and Eric.
John & his mates only had a few hours on the plane to cobble together 6 songs worth of material; Yoko's white noise fleshed out the program with another 15 minute of, uh, white noise.
John got that Rock n Roll Voice . Eric on Les Paul ( Black Beauty) Klaus on Bass. Alan White Drums ( future YES drummer) YOKO no comment . Bo , Chuck , Little Richard , Killer Early Rock n Roll. Historical Concert .
I needed to repaint my '59 Caddy limosine. Yoko's "singing" just saved me all that sandblasting. (I do need to reshingle my house now, though.) Thanks!
The Lennon part started out with a bang. They nailed 'Blue Suede Shoes". But after that, the Wicked Witch of the East starts puking all over the place and RUINS it for everybody. I bet the rest of the band was looking for a rock to climb under.
I waited on Yoko at Tavern-on-the-Green, Central Park, NYC, in 1996. If I had heard or seen this concert footage before then, I'd have screeched in her vocal style in her face constantly until she left the restaurant. Getting fired would have been worth it.
I’d love to know what the thoughts rolling through Eric’s head were when they were on stage and she pulled that sheet out and got under it lol. Too dam funny.
Este show de Lennon plasma claramente la inmensa diferencia que habia entre el y su ex socio McCartney. Ahi Lennon hizo todo lo que Paul no haría, tocar en un festival CUTRE, sin ensayar, dar un show que sudaba amateurismo contrastando con lo inmenso que ya era Lennon para ese año. Adoro a Lennon pero nunca pude ni me interesó ver este show completo, no está a su altura. Las drogas le tenian la mente bien distorsionada, y ni que hablar de algunas "presencias" Lamentable.
For all of you who weren't old enough to be 14 when Chuck, Richard and Jerry were on regular radio and then in 1969 and the crazy Vietnam and drug times then, shuddup unless you like this stuff.

That must be why the camera angles for the entire concert are close-ups.
Yoko doing her thing at a concert like this is self indulgent and insulting
Those musicians were amazing for not getting thrown too far off track by Captain Screech over there
Yeah, I mean what did she really add to the music?
Ruined the songs with her cackling
Omg you made me bust out laughing!
The best part about it is that Yoko is holding a lyric sheet. haha..
Classic.
Screeching is a complex art form take many hours of persistent wailing to get the desired effect, usually blown eardrums and cerebral leaking

When I saw him at the Jazz café though he was amazing.
When it comes to Yoko’s voice, beauty is in the mind of the beholder. The list of beholders was short - just one - and he was biased.
@@alaincharnier1971 It was a kind of "WTF is that!?" look.
@@alaincharnier1971 he looks worried!!!
@@toms4442 he is chasing the dragon and playing about cold turkey
More like beauty is in the eye of the BEER holder.
I'm not on the list, but it might be up to 2. Paul seemed to enjoy it when they jammed all those times during the Let It Be recordings.
Almost every live recording by John Lennon has forever been marred by Yoko’s annoying wailing in the background.
What John saw in her I’ll never understand.
True and not true. In this case, for example, she kept silent for the first few songs.
@@teveve31 Keeping quiet was her best contribution
I've heard that Yoko was stalking Paul and John and John didn't like her at first. I think what changed his mind was that he was jealous of Paul enjoying the bachelor life and the Avant Garde art scene and that Yoko was a reliable Heroin connection.
Glimpses of Erics greatness here ...
Grande este video.....
he visto hartos pero este con Clapton, es único, una joya!!
Yoko OH NO was having a blast here!
36 minutes of good music.
Followed by something that makes leaf blowers sound melodic.
I believe this is the same show The Doors were headlining and the famous Alice Cooper chicken incident.
I always said that Yoko had Van Gogh's ear for music
It cracks me up to look at that crowd and think everyone is in their 70's now.
Sucks. My. Friend. 🇺🇸🇺🇸🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
I'm nearly 70 years old now. I suppose I will never understand why anyone would give Yoko a microphone and let her sing, much less sing over John and Eric.
well they say " love is blind " it seems its deaf as well.....
Deaf, dumb, blind and hooked on smack.
@@leescott1145 😂😂😂
John & his mates only had a few hours on the plane to cobble together 6 songs worth of material; Yoko's white noise fleshed out the program with another 15 minute of, uh, white noise.
i feel your pain,it musta been the drugs, i dont get it either.prolly never will....
For me this was Johns best look
Yeah he looked really cool here
Now this is rock and roll !!!
- Solo Con A -. No tenía conocimiento de este histórico recital. Gracias por subirlo......
thank you for posting this important documentary
I'd rather light my hair on fire than go thru this again
Her voice is why the off button was invented
🙃🤣
Love is blind they say. In Lennon 's case it was also deaf and dumb.
All those years before in Hamburg getting it right over how many nights(?) Then this..😞😞
That’s more than art. That’s unconditional love.
Loll!
Someone should have handed Yoko a blindfold and a pair of knitting needles to keep her occupied.
If I only heard this concert but didn't see this video I'd swear Flipper was a member of the band.
LOL!
Thank you. Good time had by all.
Way ahead of its time.
Teen age Alan White on drums

Thank you Bill! I didn't know who the band was.I'm glad you didn't include Yoko Oh no! with the musicians.😢
thanks for sharing!
I needed to repaint my '59 Caddy limosine. Yoko's "singing" just saved me all that sandblasting. (I do need to reshingle my house now, though.) Thanks!
The Lennon part started out with a bang. They nailed 'Blue Suede Shoes". But after that, the Wicked Witch of the East starts puking all over the place and RUINS it for everybody. I bet the rest of the band was looking for a rock to climb under.
Todo muy bien despues de oir a yoko tuve pesadillas el amor de john por yoko era mucho como para subirla a un escenario
Great rocker! Loved his music then and now. Too bad he didn’t stay with May Pang. RIP John Lennon. Your music is still alive!
I waited on Yoko at Tavern-on-the-Green, Central Park, NYC, in 1996.
If I had heard or seen this concert footage before then, I'd have screeched in her vocal style in her face constantly until she left the restaurant. Getting fired would have been worth it.
I’d love to know what the thoughts rolling through Eric’s head were when they were on stage and she pulled that sheet out and got under it lol. Too dam funny.
Eric was thinking : What you do for your friends!
He was so doped up those years he didn't care.
The pioneers were still very exciting !
Thanks so much ❤️ 💚 ❤️
Beautiful ...
Little Richard and his band were the tightest.
Este show de Lennon plasma claramente la inmensa diferencia que habia entre el y su ex socio McCartney.
Ahi Lennon hizo todo lo que Paul no haría, tocar en un festival CUTRE, sin ensayar, dar un show que sudaba amateurismo contrastando con lo inmenso que ya era Lennon para ese año.
Adoro a Lennon pero nunca pude ni me interesó ver este show completo, no está a su altura.
Las drogas le tenian la mente bien distorsionada, y ni que hablar de algunas "presencias"
Lamentable.
Thank you for sharing
So sad to hear John voice and every else here were legends who d played here on stage
Гений Джона,даже Йоко не испортит,хоть и старается пуще всех✌️
the man that fimed ------this was a friend of mine welcome to toronto canada 1969
can I sue him
For all of you who weren't old enough to be 14 when Chuck, Richard and Jerry were on regular radio and then in 1969 and the crazy Vietnam and drug times then, shuddup unless you like this stuff.
Spot on amos/ different times/ m c 5
Yoko Oh No, screeching during Eric's solo is a No No!
