when you wonder how or why they broke up, look at the schedule they were put through from 64 on, they got so burned out from their own fame and success

Beatles facts you may not know.
1. To play it safe, because of George's strep throat, The Beatles tuned their guitars down one half step for the February 9, 1964 Ed Sullivan Shows, both the afternoon taped performance as well as the historic live night-time performance. They were also tuned down as well at The Washington Coliseum and Carnegie Hall concerts. But they tuned back up into key for the second Sullivan Show from Miami Beach.
2. Some songs in the film A Hard Day's Night are a half step flat. They are If I Fell, And I Love Her, I'm So Happy Just To Dance With You, and the entire Finale including Tell Me Why, If I Fell, I Should Have Known Better and She Loves You. The Beatles recorded all these songs in their proper keys but there was a problem. During the filming of those songs, there were t.v. monitors in the scene. When filming those scenes in 24fps, the producer and director noticed the monitors were rolling. So they had to shoot at 25fps to stop the roll. When the film was released to the world, it was released in the standard 24fps. Therfore those songs with the t.v. monitors in them were a bit slower and therefore the keys were a half step flat. So in the movie, If I Fell is in Db, And I Love Her in Eb, I'm So Happy Just To Dance With You is in Eb. Tell Me Why it's in Db. She Loves You is in Gb. Now the Beatles performed I Should Have Known Better twice. Once in the train playing cards with no tv monitor in the scene. That version is in the proper key of G. However they also did the song during the finale WITH TV MONITORS in the scene, which is why that version is in Gb. Most Beatles fans do not know these facts. But now you do! 🎼👌

"I'll Be Back" was originally written in 3/4 time, that's why John had trouble singing it on the early takes.

Those of us who grew up between the 50s and the mid 70s we're the lucky generation. It was a period of relative economic stability when freedom of expression and of criticism of the system was permitted. Yeah, they were good day that are not coming back. The Beatles music was the backdrop to my entire childhood and it seems so natural. I remember when they come to Australia in 66, I was seven years old and the concert was held at Festival Hall. It was telecast on TV in black and white and I watched at my grand mother’s. Poor old Ringo was sick and did not make the trip.

Its great the way you allow us to see how things unfolded for rhe Beatles. How one thing flowed into the other for them. It allows us to experience it as it really happened. We hardly ever get that perspective. Thank you.

Beatles For Sale is a quality record that fits in well as a mile marker of their evolution.

I had to beg mom and dad to go see a hard days night. My brother David and I loved it so, we set out trying to find Beatles boots in the states.

That was a superb 21-minute and 3-second documentary. It couldn't have been done better.

Very nice stroll through early 1964. You mentioned that they travelled back to New York for the second Ed Sullivan show, but of course you now know that they performed live at the Deauville Hotel in Miami Beach for the second show, and that they were "live" on tape for the third show as they were back in the UK by then. One thing I wish you had included was how Richard Lester wanted a "big" opening number, and the result was the fabulous first chord on A Hard Day's Night. I've read about how they experimented with it, but would have loved to see that included in this video.

Mate, whatever you did, you sound the best you've ever sounded. Nice, crisp highs and plenty of oomph in the low end. Nice mix. Well done.
