Anyone seen the documentary?. I'm about a third of the way through. its a long one but glad it is.
The Beatle ballads was my first Cassette tape I received as a gift and from there was obsessed with their music and story.
Back in the day there wasn't much footage around of them or their music apart from the normal Screaming concerts and the odd bits and pieces so to see this documentary of how they came together (and apart) , interacted, wrote and arranged music is pretty incredible.
Such an amazing and sad story of what fame, egos, and money can and can't do.
cheers

I'm half way through the first part — fascinating how "Get Back" just materialised out of Paul's noodling. Not sure the rest of the family were so engaged, so will need to watch the rest when they're not so visibly bored!!!

It's clear that the quality of the Beatles output was the sum of five individuals, none of Paul's solo work comes even close to what the Beatles made.
Let's not ever mention Wings again, that s**t is a frontal assault on my sanity.

pt3r yes they all needed each other and can't believe mull of Kintyre or say say say doesn't inspire you 🤣 namke that was a great moment when Get Back was born through noodling. They were so bored and over it especially Ringo but when they heard Paul was onto something with Get Back they swing into gear even John when he came in late just sat down and started playing. Was cool. You could tell Paul was annoying the crap out of them
