  • The concert footage featured on the standard edition of the set was directed by Paul Becher, who has overseen live visuals for McCartney for over 200 performances. The performances were shot in high definition using 15 cameras and digital footage incorporated from 75 flipcams handed out to fans over the course of the three night stand. The audio mix, in both stereo and 5.1, was handled by longtime Beatles engineer Geoff Emerick .the song in this video is Blackbird .I think that you will appraise it .

      Considering that he (and the "lads") have been famous for more than 50 years... it's just not that surprising. I heard "I want to hold your hand" about 1963, and life has never been the same. My sister is of the Elvis generation, I'm the Beatles. They changed so very much. I think more than Bob Dylan, but I won't argue that point.

    When he is gone I will be devastated, it is so great to have him and Ringo still around to listen to and hear their reflections. The Beatles essentially started the year I was born and I fortunately had some years of enjoying them as a group before they broke up, a day I will never forget. But their music lives forever

      Funny Brian, I was listening to McCartney earlier this evening and thought the same thing. Been listening to them since their inception in the early/mid sixties. Their music has been with my wife and I since then as I was introduced to her the day the Beatles had their first US TV Special on the Ed Sullivan show in Feb 1964.

    The absolutely insane thing about this video is the only other "complicated song" I ever learned on guitar and can still play it is Bach's Bouree in E Minor which is what Paul way playing on intro. The Universe picked Blackbird as the next song to learn having no idea Paul got the idea from Bach. I see music in an entirely new light now as I get how he made the transition. He is brilliant.

    It's amazing that four people with those talents could just meet up so randomly. Torvill and Dean and the Beatles show us what Macca means, whether he knows it or not, when he says God speaks to us through music and art. Such talent, such chance meetings in what amounts to the middle of nowhere.

    I was at this show with my sister, had a heck of a good time. Funnily enough he talks about both he and George having a party piece by Bach to show they knew how to play the guitar, i often use Blackbird as a piece to show that i too can play the guitar.

    @CodyDean has it right, here’s a little background: different physical areas of your brain control speech, hands, and melody, and another connects them together, but the connection part (where ‘you’ dwell) can only manage so much of the other stuff at once. So you need to practice each part separately until you have it down, or at least close. I like to work on putting the guitar part with the melody (without the words) before I try to put it all together, and of course I’ve been singing the voice part - words and melody - together, so when I’m ready, it kinda flows together.
    None of these happens easily or smoothly, but I find proceeding in this order easiest for me. If I’m trying to create a song, I have to work it through phrase by phrase. I’ve never been successful in writing more than a few phrases before the wellspring runs dry. You have probably figured this all out by the time I write this, but maybe someone will find it useful.

    Why can't music in our generation be like this?

      If you're talking about lyrics, there are many songs with meaningful stories to be told, but I don't believe we'll have another band that'll top Beatles. Wish I grew up around the 60s/70s, so many phenomenal musicians that I would rather support than these sell out rappers/pop artists.

      Problem is there's too many obstacles like social media and globalism that tends to diminish and blends people's dreams and thoughts together. There's also the whole adrenochrome aspect. Some people are drinking baby blood to stay on top of things and keep the world under their control whilst others have no idea.
