The Beatles: Get Back - The Rooftop Concert

Isn't it a crazy feeling when you still have appreciable energy for the band who doesn't even exist anymore?

I thank for these legendary, I've been spending my whole times by listening to them. Oh, Beatles.

It was one of the best hour in my life. It was so great to see that band again with incredible sound that IMAX theatres offers. The funny thing was that I'm 22 and when I entered the theatre there was a group of some older men and they said "God it's great to see some young people enjoy their music like we did" 😊

He took an exceptional insight into the world's most influential group and completely sanitized it. Yes, the Lindsay-Hogg movie was sad but it also portrayed life and relationships as they were at the time. Now that's what documentaries are supposed to do. Shame on Jackson. Why was the development of tensions city from how it really was? It's critically important to understand how and why the relationship between John and Paul fell apart. It's equally important to see how other relationships were affected. Paul was a control freak. Even his influence on Ringo was damaged. George was an extremely talented musician and just outgrew Paul. Why is that edited out of the original? It's also very important to provide the context of Ono's ever growing relationship with John. Much of the documentary hinges on watching that develop.

By an OLD Beatle fan, I mean- you 1st saw The Beatles on Ed Sullivan and watched them evolve both personally and musically. We all kind of grew up together. You remember the songs, the girl friends, marriages, divorces, new songs, old songs, concerts- all of it. You will also see and wonder about Yoko's weird presence in the recording sessions: really weird and why is she there? Probably to control John. What I found particularly interesting is how they composed songs- FASCINATING! All playing off each other- all a tune to one another and could feel what was needed to make the song work--and watch a song grow. That in itself if interesting for any Beatle fan!

As a lifelong Beatles fan this is a dream come true to see old pictures from the 1970s come to life in great cinema quality with all the back stories on how the famous "Beatles Rooftop Concert" came to be! It is truly amazing that 53 years later the songs still sound great and that the Beatles still look cool! To me this was by far the best part of the Peter Jackson 7 hours "Get Back" footage, this final rooftop video concert is what really matters! Just one little tidbit of information, this "Beatles Rooftop Concert" was filmed in London, England at 12:30pm on Thursday, January 30, 1969 the weather that day was 45°F and cold! -Brad Pyner.
