The Liberty Bell, previously called the State House Bell or Old State House Bell, is an iconic symbol of American independence located in Philadelphia. Originally placed in the steeple of Pennsylvania State House, now known as Independence Hall. It has a huge crack in it. It cannot be rung at all. It is now displayed at the visitors' center across the street from Independence Hall.

Fascinating to hear all these recollections. Thank you

A heroin addict can be surprisingly productive if they are getting a regular, pure supply. Look at Keith Richard for God's sake! I'm sure a man of John Lennon's means and connections could procure a decent supply of heroin if he needed it I'm not so convinced as Mark Lewisohn as appears to be that John and Yoko weren't addicts. If you take heroin for as long as they did it's highly unlikely you won't become addicted. And he did write Cold Turkey after all There is quite a bit of evidence that neither of them ever completely were free of junk. I think there were a number of relapses throughout the 70s. It also possibly explains why he looked so awful in 1980 - he was dangerously underweight and looked ten years older than he actually was. But who knows?

Brilliant as always thanks guys

Mark, the real fifth Beatle

13:25 I like how Ringo is on the other side of the street, in his Hurricanes suit looking at the Beatles are doing.

The visuals really do help tell the story -- seeing the passport photos was quite something.

Great!

Absolutely Awesome!

Really excellent presentation.Mark has a very George-esque sense of humour which I always enjoy, along with his forensic eye for detail.

Well done....Nice work!

So much are went into this, thank you

I could listen to Lewisohn for hours...

Very interesting.

Why would Stewart be your favorite Beatle?

The aircraft is a Lockheed Constellation.

could it be John was the one who took that picture at the Netherlands cemetary?

7:22 I can’t read Dutch but is “Volkswagenbusje” a generic term for that type of vehicle, even though the Beatles van was a different marque?

This is fascinating. Well done and many thanks to you both, Mark and Piet.

Always terrific!

Always a pleasure to hear/see Mark Lewisohn; thanks for sharing.

What is forgotten is that Pilcher had been waiting to bust George and Patti since Sunday 12th February 1967, when they were guests a weekend party at Redlands. At the time they had to wait for George and Patti to leave Redlands for that bust to take place, and Pilcher decided to bide his time and eventually did on Wednesday 12th March 1969.

I love that Mark Lewisohn is capable of admitting when he doesn't know something rather than blustering his way through things (as so many are apt to do).

One thing I like about Mark is his dedication to getting it right and understanding that as new information comes out & more facts provide context, sometimes original theories or things we're sure we know, change. What makes him so good is that he never shrinks from that. After seeing - okay, obsessively studying - Peter Jackson's 'Get Back' it seems pretty clear now that Paul was absolutely *desperate* to do the roof concert, not only because at that point it was that or nothing, but it also just happened to fulfill his original, expressed fantasy of a concert somewhere they weren't supposed to be. And if possible maybe even have the coppers come carry them off as they played. "You've got to take a bit of violence." (Although it didn't get quite that far.) His hesitation in pushing it as the deadline approached was clearly caution about repeating his mistakes from the first week. He's being so careful to avoid being bossy; working to steer clear of the issues that caused the rift at Twickenham. Instead he lures a bit, day by day, and lets John and Ringo pull George in. And if there was any doubt at all from just the audio, seeing Paul on that roof the first time they go up to check it out should remove it. Paul's addiction is performing, and it's impossible not to understand why.

😱 so the fab 4 invented the Rock Cruise 🚢 😍

While I really enjoyed this interview among much of Mark's work, I have to say his choice of "You Know My Name (Look Up the Number)" as his favorite Beatles song is such a lordly, self impressed choice. The reason why Paul throws that one out there is because he said he had so much fun recording it and the memory of recording it brings him joy. As a listener, you can pick whatever song you want of course, but it just seems to me to be an over thought out reason or just a posh choice.

Liberty Bell is the bell that was cracked in the American revolution.

Magnificent!!! Just incredible to enjoy!Thank you so much.

This is excellent! I was just thinking about what happened to BB the other day! Thanks Guys!

Very interesting and well worth saving for posterity.

It is hard for me to understand after listening to numerous Mark Lewisohn interviews, how George Harrison, and Olivia Harrison, could be so adamant about not helping Mark in any way with his work on the Beatles. His criticism was that Mark was not there, so how could he know. But Lewisohn's exhaustive research does give him an amazing insight into their careers and lives that no one has come closer to achieving. And his goal seems sincere in wanting simply to properly document the amazing story of them and their experiences.

A lot of this stuff was on the "fly on the wall" CD included in Let it Be Naked . The whole Ringo won't go abroad and the QE2 conversation.

Exceptional! An absolute joy to hear two very knowledgeable Beatles aficionados exchanging stories and insights. Thanks!

Superb interview, and we are lucky that someone of Mark Lewisohn's talent and knowledge is around providing such incredible information. And I have met him once at his 'Hornsey Road' lecture at Edinburgh, he's a nice chap too.

The Liberty Bell is a large bell in Independence Hall in Philadelphia that was pealed when the Declaration of Independence was signed and announced. It eventually cracked visibly and can no longer be rung.

Wonderful to hear Mark, he is a veritable guru of in depth and revealing knowledge 🌞🌞🌞

Good to know that Mark takes photos - but does he film anything? Nowadays it's just as easy.

The liberty bell was a giant bell from the revolutionary war in America. Years later it was damaged with a giant crack in it. It represented freedon in America.

never heard Lennon's speaking voice sound like he was on junk. and in person on film or TV, he's not high on junk. no tell tale face rubbing, and itching. he said he & Yoko never went beyond snorting it, which is an admission that he used it, obviously. and 'Cold Turkey 'does sound inspired. don't think it was big in his life, tho. KEEP WRITING, MARK.

in the book 'a day in the Life', there was a reason which of course, escapes me that George wasn't there for 'the Ballad of John & Yoko'. the fab 4 obviously had been to Philadelphia. that's where the Liberty Bell ,a symbol of USA's independence from GB( which was dropped at one point, and cracked severely), resides .but I'm still not sure if you're putting me on about not knowing what it is.

excellent points about PLASTIC ONO BAND and Ringo in particular. that is forever Lennon's masterpiece.

36:45 - The other album in which they don't have a song for Ringo to sing the lead is A Hard Day's Night. Great interview, I loved it :)

9:20 George Martin was a very unreliable source, from his initial meeting with Ringo onwards.

LOL - "Crack in the Liberty Bell" Says Paul. All the Britains ask each other - "What's a Liberty Bell?"

Stuart and John created the Beatles!! This guy was the Beatle we never Got! He was a Beatle who decided to take a break to paint and died... Funny how Destiny works! He was about to conquer the world!! Then suddenly fate decides to kill him! Its a powerful thought! What could have been!!! A true poet......lost to history.......never to be..........

Very nice...Thanks for posting!!!

Heel goed

Erg mooi 👍

Beeldschoon.

Kippevel !
