The intention behind the rooftop concert had been for the boys to stage a comeback as live performers. It was George who suggested keyboardist Billy Preston as an additional musician in hopes that a talented outsider would encourage the band to be tight and focused for the impromptu event. At one point John proposed the idea of having Preston join the band as a bona fide fifth Beatle member, but Paul responded in opposition that it was already difficult enough reaching agreements as a quartet with the strain of Beatlemania and individual artistic pursuits attributing to the band's breakup a year later. Preston is the only musician to be given a credit on a Beatles recording, which was done at the band's request. The group's 1969 single "Get Back" was credited as "The Beatles with Billy Preston".
Man oh man they look like they're having a ball jamming and everyone is on 🔥 playing their individual instruments. And this was unknowingly the Beatles last live concert before "the breakup"😢
Love the boys and always will. It would have been nice for the camera person to let us see Billy Preston actually playing the electronic piano when it went to his partial solo part. We saw his face briefly, which is great. Otherwise,…legendary performance
I remember watching this on TV at the time, I was already a fan of SF but I couldn’t imagine that more than half a century later I would be rewatching it on a portable computer (iPad) balanced on my chest as I drink whisky. The future is stranger, you might even say queerer, than I ever imagined back then. I knew the Beatles would last forever back then though.
Phenomenal. I had that model Hoffner bass and sold it for 3k to a guy on Ebay last year. he had 30+ bass guitars. He wanted to restore it for his kids as he had lung cancer and was on the way out. I originally bought it for $50AUD 2o years ago, This is the best band in the history of bands. Thanks for the beautiful feeling
Get back jojo
Who's on keyboard?
I could watch this all day and pick up new things each time. They were so perfect together. ❤️❤️
Paul is on Fire 💪😎😀
fuck the beatles are cool
Paul Mccartney is literally the coolest looking guy ever at this period in the band. 😎
Yeah I'm gonna get back home! 2:50
Yeah that's a s th we "ve lived in rock music- thanks to all you who made it possible to haopen out 3:21 3:21
You guys know it was NOT spontaneous and took 11 takes to get their hair riight, right?
These creatives were all in their mid to late twenties when this was recorded…astonishing to think what they had accomplished musically….
Good thing yoko stayed on the side and decided not to sing.
Who said John Lennon wasn't a great guitar player? He is rocking out here.
Throughout their career, there were many people who claimed to be a "fifth Beatle". In my opinion, Billy Preston was the only one who came close.
Párese g estubieran hai todo es una ilucion
Genios
This performance is real classic.
Like Paul once said,"we were a great little rock 'n roll band." [What an understatement.]
Paul mccartney we'll be in Argentina octubre 5 en Buenos Aires & 23 in Córdoba
John is good at guitars here. I thought it was George but yeah so good. I can watch this all day.
Q tema más increíble,paul que músico Dios mío
No wonder they are still popular.
Jojo was a man who thought he was a loner
But he knew it couldn't last
Jojo left his home in Tucson, Arizona
For some California grass
Get back, get back
Get back to where you once belonged
Get back, get back
Get back to where you once belonged
Get back Jojo
Go home
Get back, get back
Back to where you once belonged
Get back, get back
Back to where you once belonged, yeah
Oh, get back, Jo
Sweet Loretta Martin thought she was a woman
But she was another man
All the girls around her say she's got it coming
But she gets it while she can
Oh, get back, get back
Get back to where you once belonged
Get back, get back
Get back to where you once belonged
Get back Loretta, woo, woo
Go home
Oh, get back, yeah, get back
Get back to where you once belonged
Yeah, get back, get back
Get back to where you once belonged
Ooh
Ooh, ooh
Get back, Loretta
Your mommy's waitin' for you
Wearin' her high-heel shoes
And a low-neck sweater
Get back home, Loretta
Get back, get back
Get back to where you once belonged
Oh, get back, get back
Get back, oh yeah
This is Fabulous!!!
Happy Birthday Paul 82 ❤

"He knew it couldn't last" – and they were so right!
Что можно сказать,двоим вечная память,а другим долголетия,сэр Пол и сэр Ринго похоже будут почти бессмертными.
Complicidad!!!!! Maccartney Lenon!!

Playing just to play. Probably took them back to before the hype.
Paul is such a Gem ♊️ *swoon

And the drummer wears a mac when it isn't pouring rain – very strange.
This was Paul at his finest.👌
