Can You Beleive Its 47 Years Ago....

[trt]

Today is the 47th anniversary of the last time The Beatles ever played in "public", on the roof of the Apple building in London-----until they were told to stop by the police.

No because I was too young. I can remember though that all of their songs were re released in the summer of 1975 which brought their music to us, the next generation

No, I can't - stop making me feel old!!

[pastafreak]

Sheesh! I was 21...and the cops in that clip don't look much older. Everyone looks so serious!...why aren't they dancing in the street,its the swinging 60's!

Best group ever! ♥

[tonyav]

Which one of the fab four was your favourite, Ann ?.

[Ann]

Well I did change my affection (lust haha) from George to John but I went off John as soon as he married Yoko Ono!!! He also went and looked very weird around that time ....... :)

[Ann]

I only loved (and still have!) their earlier LPs not the later ones like Sergeant Pepper.

[tonyav]

All four seemed to go a bit weird around that time imo, Ann.

Oh Noise was a criminal matter in the Good Old Days
transferred to civil law in the seventies ....

all it needed was one kill joy to complain ....

[david small]

I remember that time well. I was annoyed when they split.

[waterboatman]

I remember it well. They were an icon and set the standard.

// I remember it well. They were an icon and set the standard.//

yeah the four lovable scouse mop-heads set the standard for greed, pointless infighting and inability to realise that the sum of the Fab Four was much more than the parts

inability to work as a team and set a common goal and work towards it was the bane of the late sixties and seventies
and the Fab Four typify it

Whoa Peter! You're bringin' me down man, peace out.

[tamborine]

Flower power era. Pls play Blackbird for me

greed, PP? The guys paid 19/6 in the £ tax and were probably ripped off more than any other musicians in history. No wonder they wanted to see some of what they made. But they did split the money four ways (unlike the Stones, who were basically employed by Mick and Keith.)

Good Gracious PP, did you have a hard days night last night?

Go and get some fresh air, and take a stroll down penny lane!
