By the time The Beatles released their twelfth and final studio album, Let It Be, the ban had already broken up. Their official break-up was in April 1970, and this album was released in May.Much of the recording dates back over a year, and a project that Paul McCartney developed in an attempt to save the band. The Beatles went into the studio in January 1969 to begin an album, document the development on film, and showcase the band as they return both to a simpler rock 'n' roll style and to live performance. They started in Twickenham Film Studios, but quickly began fighting. George Harrison left the group, only returning after they agreed to returning to Apple Studios and to bringing keyboardist Billy Preston in to assist in the process.Originally entitled "Get Back," the album was delayed multiple times as the group considered aligning with potential televised performances, and eventually postponing the release in favor of the studio album "Abbey Road." As the demise of the group became more clear, Engineer Glyn Johns and producer Phil Spector were brought in to turn the pieces from the "Get Back" sessions into a complete album.These sessions were also the ones which included the final Beatles live performance, the "Rooftop Concert" recorded from the roof of Apple Studios on the afternoon of January 30, 1969. This concert proceeded for 42 minutes until the police arrived and instructed the group to turn the sound down.Contemporary reviews of the album were more negative than previous Beatles albums, but those critiques have been revised upwards over time.Bruce presents this album marking the end of an era for this week's podcast.Two of UsPaul McCartney wrote most of this song which is credited to the Lennon-McCartney partnership. The original idea was inspired by McCartney's travel adventures with Linda Eastman (to whom he was married in March 1969), but it took on more meaning as a gesture of affection to John Lennon after the group broke up. I Me MineOne of the few non Lennon-McCartney songs on the album, this track was written by George Harrison. It was their last new track recorded before their official break-up in April 1970. The lyrics are a cry against the self-centeredness of mankind. The Beatles recorded it in January 1970, by which time Lennon has privately left the group, so the three remaining members recorded it. I've Got a FeelingThis song is actually a medley of two unfinished songs. Paul McCartney wrote "I've Got a Feeling," and John Lennon wrote "Everybody Had a Hard Year." and the two were put together. This was recorded during the Beatles' rooftop concert in January 1969 with Billy Preston on electric piano.Get BackThe concluding song from the album is unusual. because almost every moment of the song's development was recorded from the first riff to final mixing. The concluding quip from John Lennon regarding hope that "we passed the audition," was taken from the Rooftop Concert and worked in by Phil Spector. It was originally released as a single a year before in April 1969, and credited to "The Beatles with Billy Preston." ENTERTAINMENT TRACK:"Burning Bridges" (Main theme from the action comedy film Kelly's Heroes)This World War II comedy stars Clint Eastwood and Telly Savalas revolves around a gold heist as the war draws to a close. STAFF PICKS:Question by The Moody BluesLynch brings us a song in multiple movements. The frantic phase represents the question of why we must go to war, while the more subdued section represents love and peace. Guitarist Justin Hayward wrote this song as a mashup of two unfinished songs which came together after observing the anxiety young US fans were experiencing regarding the draft and the Vietnam War.Proper Stranger by The Guess WhoRob features a deeper cut from the Canadian band off their "American Woman" album. The lyrics depict the feelings of being alone in a big city where "Nobody knows my face or knows my name. Nobody knows where I'm going or how I came. Lost and found, no one claimed me. Alone with a million others."50,000 Miles Beneath My Brain by by Ten Years AfterWayne takes us on another deep cut. This one is a psychedelic journey with the group that gets its name from their being founded ten years after Elvis's start. We noticed the similarity between this song and the Rolling Stones' "Sympathy for the Devil," with which it shares a similar chord progression.Baby Hold On by The Grass RootsBruce closes the staff picks with a group that was big from 1965-1985. The Grass Roots originated in 1965 as a project between the duo P.F. Sloan and Steve Barri. This song went to number 35 and was included on their compilation album, "More Golden Grass," released in the fall of 1970.

In May 1970, the last original album that the Beatles would ever release finally came out, after sitting on the shelf for over a year while the Fab Four battled over management control and financial issues, and in the process broke up. As such, the album Let It Be would act as the finale of the biggest band in the history of popular music. Randy Renaud revisits its creation in honour of its 55th anniversary.
On a blustery January day in 1969, pedestrians, shopkeepers and office workers along London's Saville Row were stunned to discover that, for their lunch-break, they were being treated to an unannounced concert by the world's most famous band. For the first time in 3 years, the Beatles were performing live. But not on a stage, nor even on the street. They were high on top of a rooftop, performing brand new songs. Until, that is, the police arrived to shut them down. Randy Renaud has the story behind the Beatles legendary rooftop concert on the Chronicles of Rock.

This is a new phase Untitled Beatles Podcast...essential to the content of seeing the film, Get Back in IMAX was that Tony & T.J. each recorded their experiences driving to the theater; in comes the warmth and general nonsense of discussing the film together in a live bar performance, as reproduced for mp4 by Producer Casey.

Graham and Charles chew over the second album by Black Country, New Road. They also take a look back at the life, writing and influence of libertarian US writer, P J O'Rourke. Graham demystifies the confusion over the latest Beatles release, which is part of Peter Jackson's Get Back documentary project and presents a sparkling new version of the legendary January 30 1969 rooftop concert. Graham also puts some thought into why so many US music artists celebrate inspiration from the British indie scene.

I 1969 besluttede The Beatles sig for at gå i studiet, hvor de skulle skrive et album, indspille det og spille det foran et live publikum. Det gik i hårdknude, George Harrison forlod bandet kortvarigt og stemningen mellem de fire Beatler var ikke i top. Det endte med, at de indspillede albummet, vi i dag kender som Let It Be sammen med pianisten Billy Preston og de spillede en kort koncert, den berømte Rooftop Concert. Alt det udspillede sig i London i januar måned 1969, og blev foreviget af instruktøren Michael Lindsey Hogg som et testamente over, hvor dårlig stemningen mellem The Beatles var. Peter Jackson har fået adgang til omkring 60 timers hidtil uset filmmateriale fra januar 1969, og lavet filmen Get Back der måske fortæller en anden historie. I dette interview tager vi klaphatten på og anskuer alt det vidunderlige ved filmen. I morgen gør vi det omvendte.

Chegamos ao fechamento da década de sessenta. Acompanhamos o que aconteceu no mundo desde a crise dos mísseis em Cuba, o posicionamento das duas nações arquirrivais na Guerra Fria e na Corrida Espacial. Acima de tudo destacamos as revoluções cultural e comportamental, lideradas por jovens sequiosos por liberdade que passam a contestar a ordem social e mundial em múltiplos aspectos, como a sexualidade, os costumes, a moral, o consumismo, as guerras. É o tempo do feminismo e de movimentos em favor dos negros e gays, da liberação sexual e da propagação das drogas, do pacifismo e da contracultura (como no caso dos hippies buscando viver à margem do sistema oficial), bem como de protestos contra a Guerra do Vietnã. Algumas das manchetes desta primeira parte são: The Beatles se despedem com um show nas alturas – é o Rooftop Concert; Uma canção para maiores de 21 anos faz sucesso na Europa; Show de graça no Hyde Park de Londres traz a maior banda de todos os tempos; E, no cinema, um filme revela a realidade da contracultura.

Trotz seiner Größe von fast zwei Metern war er zwar eigentlich meist unsichtbar. Und trotzdem war er immer dabei, egal wo die Beatles auch hingingen: Mal Evans. Ihr Fahrer, Roadmanager, Bodyguard. Der Mann, der als ihr persönlicher Assistent immer zur Stelle war, wenn sie etwas brauchten. Der Mann mit der Mary Poppins Handtasche, der allerdings auch privat mit den vieren eng befreundet war. Um den und um seine Bedeutung für die Beatles geht es heute hier bei I Want To Tell You About The Beatles auf meinmusikpodcast.de. Mal ist auch einer, der durchaus verdient hätte, als fünfter Beatles tituliert zu werden. “Der sanfte Riese mit dem großen Herz und der dicken Hornbrille”, “Big Mal”, enger Freund und mies bezahlter Angestellter. Trotzdem treu, ergeben und loyal, der vom Cavern bis zum Rooftop Concert, also vom Anfang bis zum Ende der Band, hautnah dabei war. Und dessen Leben auf dramatische Weise mit gerade einmal 40 Jahren 1976 in einem Motel in Los Angeles endete. Durch vier tödliche Schüsse der Polizei.

Chris is famous for inspiring George Harrison's 1973 song "Miss O'Dell" (The B-side of "Give Me Love (Give Me Peace on Earth)), but she had many more fascinating adventures and experiences working closely with the Beatles including seeing the Rooftop Concert, helping with the Concert for Bangladesh, and much more.

Im Januar 1969 wollten es die Beatles noch einmal wissen. Sie versammelten sich im Studio, um – ja, was eigentlich zu machen? Genau wussten sie es selbst nicht. Ein Album mit neuen Songs einspielen? Für ein Live-Konzert an einem möglichst spektakulären Ort proben? Einen Film darüber drehen? Sie taten alles ein bisschen: Das Resultat waren die LP und der Film Let It Be sowie ein improvisiertes Konzert auf dem Dach des Studiogebäudes, das legendäre Rooftop Concert vom 30. Januar 1969, bei dem die Beatles zum letzten Mal live in der Öffentlichkeit spielten. Im Rückblick erweist sich das Vorhaben als Anfang vom Ende der Beatles, aber es hätte auch ein Neustart werden können, denn neben Frust gab es auch viele geniale Momente. gelesen von Marlisa Thumm Den Text zur Rezension finden Sie hier.

The Rock N Roll Archaeologist discusses The Beatles’ rooftop concert held fifty years ago this week with audience member and ex-U.S. manager for Apple Corp, Ken Mansfield. Aka: “The Man in the White Coat”. Ken has just released his book, “The Roof: The Beatles Final Concert, published by Post Hill Press. HE WAS THERE! Apple Records former US manager Ken Mansfield takes a touching and comprehensive look back on one of Rock ’n’ Roll’s most significant events, while bringing an insider’s perspective to the days leading up to those 42 fascinating minutes of the Beatles monumental Rooftop Concert. There are moments in time that cause us to stop and take notice of where we were and what we were doing when they happen in order to commit the experience to memory—how it made us feel, who was there with us, why it felt important. January 30, 1969 was one of those moments. There are those who were on the periphery of the event that day and heard what was going on; but as one of the few remaining insiders who accompanied the Beatles up onto the cold windswept roof of the Apple building, Ken Mansfield had a front row seat to the full sensory experience of the moment and witnessed what turned out to be beginning of the end. Ken shares in The Roof: The Beatles Final Concert, the sense that something special was taking place before his eyes that would live on forever in the hearts and souls of millions. As the US manager of Apple, Ken Mansfield, was on the scene in the days, weeks, and months leading up to this monumental event. He shares his insights into the factors that brought them up onto that roof and why one of the greatest bands of all time left it all on that stage. Join Ken as he reflects on the relationships he built with the Fab Four and the Apple corps and what each player meant to this symphony of music history.

Het verhaal van de ontwikkeling van de mens verandert razendsnel door belangwekkende vondsten van archeologen, in Zuid-Afrika en Marokko. De Leidse archeoloog Gerrit Dusseldorp vertelt daar graag en smakelijk over. En passant fileert hij ook nog even het paleodieet ("niet op wetenschap gebaseerd en niet sustainable"). Op de vraag of hij het niet geweldig zou vinden om in een tijdmachine teruggeflitst te worden in de tijd, om antwoorden te vinden op prangende vragen, antwoordde hij op z'n Gerrits: "Dan liever naar het Rooftop Concert van de Beatles."

The cast takes a detailed look at the Beatles' performance on January 30th, 1969 on the Apple rooftop in London.
n 1969, the Beatles found themselves in a slump; they were growing out of the 'innocent, funny boys' role, and the band was at risk of falling apart. To bring the group back to life, they embarked on the 'Everest' project, which comprised a live performance somewhere in the world in a 'safe' location (such as Mt Everest). They expected to draw such large crowds, that a concert in a normal venue would have run quickly out of control. They explored several options for a suitable location, but couldn't agree on one. They decided to keep it simple, and play the club where they started 10 years earlier, the Jacaranda club in Liverpool. There, they performed their favourite songs, in front of a flabbergasted audience. It was a great evening, but they were concerned that a Live Everst album would fail to chart because it contained no new songs. In desperation, they started the Let It Be project, which culminated in the Rooftop Concert, which was released as their final record. At last, the BDJ scouts managed to retrieve the tapes of the Everst concert in the Jacaranda club. After careful re-mastering, it premieres here, in BDJ's cellar.
