Apropos of just about nothing, other than I stumbled across the information, it turns out that it was 40 years ago that the Beatles went on top of the Apple (not that Apple, that one) headquarters in Saville Row, in London, and performed a short set for the purpose of inclusion in the film Let it Be. There’s all sorts of drama surrounding this story; the Beatles broke up right around this time. I’m not out to get into that mess, I just wanted to share the rooftop footage. What speaks to me is that they sound exactly like themselves in this footage - how many bands have you heard live and discovered that something important, the bit you really love about them, is a product of electronic production? Not these tracks. Enjoy!
