You also have to remember that in these days there was no MTV, no UA-cam, no internet, no video on-demand. You couldn't just see your favorite artists whenever and wherever you wanted. So to actually see them performing live in concert was more mind-blowing than you can even imagine today.
Those were some lucky people ‼️
Salguine it would still be mind blowing see and hear them again, l seen Paul in 2015 it was the best concert I’ve ever been to and l’ve been to a lot of them, l’m 65 and been Beatle fan since I was 8. There music will be relevant as long as humans survive.💯☮️🌎🌏????
@@jcjreacts7630 Yes we were Baby Bro ~ The Beatles changed not just music, there was and never will be 4 young lads from Liverpool, England who influenced The World. Not Frank Sinatra or even Elvis Presley.
One of the most important, not necessarily the greatest because unfortunately the band couldn't hear themselves. They pioneered stadium concerts. The primitive PA system (the baseball announcers PA) couldn't cope with the noise.
At Beatles concerts in those days, there were no big megawatt sound systems like today. They played to 55,000 girls screaming at the top of their lungs for a half hour, with just their guitar amplifiers and a mikes plugged into a PA that probably came from a small church. Not only could the audience not hear anything, the Beatles couldn't hear themselves because of the nonstop screaming. It's a miracle they played in time and sang in tune. Nothing anywhere near this exists now. Not even close. You just watched a musical and cultural revolution that was unprecedented and will never happen again. The Beatles!
Imagine having that noise at every show you play for three years straight.. No wonder they stopped touring. Thank you for reacting to this guys!
trying to figure out how they found the time to write new material within all of this madness.
@@lesdoll402 They went in studio and produced with George Martin who was producing Classical Music, heard their unique sound, untapped talent, and he became loving referred to as the 5th Beatle. Sir George Martin brought out the opus of their talent and potential.
That was blessing in disguise.
That wasn't the nail in the coffin. They thought they'd die in Manila (I think).
The Beatles could barely hear themselves. It was the reason they stopped touring.
They should have used louder speakers
@@jeffreykaufmann2867 Speakers louder than the screaming crowd didn't exist back in the mid 60s
The technology was not there at the time.
@@jeffreykaufmann2867 The technology didn't exist.
In fact, until this 1965 tour, they used 30-watt amps. The large amplifiers you see in this concert were 100-watts, produced specifically for them. They were known as "Beatle amps".
@@jnagarya519 Even if the Beatles had very loud speakers I can't imagine teenage girls screaming to a Song Like Tomorrow Never Knows.
Back in the day the audience applauded in the beginning, slightly swayed and swooned quietly during the performance, and applauded politely at the end. It wasn't until the Beatles started something completely new in fan participation of nonstop screaming and wild pandemonium throughout their performances known as Beatlemania
You forgot about Elvis concerts in 50s
@@viatcheslavkalashnikov1397 Even Frank Sinatra generated a fair bit of squealing from the bobby-soxers, back in the day, IIRC.
@@viatcheslavkalashnikov1397 Nothing compared to Beatlemania which was an International phenomena. Elvis only in America.
@@stormatsunup I know, The Beatles rules as a group , Elvis rules as solo singer.
5:34, I love Brian’s face there, he’s just thinking “Yep, that’s my boys.”

Hi man
Everyone had a good Jewish Manager then.
Probably, still do......shrewd,intelligent and successful people :)
Brian Epstein put those boys in Pierre Cardin Suits, suede Beatle Boots, and it was never disclosed who cut their mop-top hair. Rolled 'em out on stage stylin' to the nth and had them take a bow. They started falling apart after he died.
Their friend Astrid Kirchherr was the first one to start cutting their hair like that. Band member Stu Sutcliffe, Astrid's boyfriend, was the first Beatle to wear his hair that way.
Still top selling musicians of all time. 20 number 1 songs in 6 years.
I was 14 in 1965 and we thought the Beatles were everything, We wanted to be the Beatles, they changed our lives, they changed the world.
It is notable as it was the very first time a Rock Band performed in a sporting stadium - it was a world record crowd for a Concert at the time.
However, there was no such thing as a Rock Concert PA system at the time, their voices went through the regular baseball stadium PA system. On stage there were no monitors so they could not hear themselves very well - at times not at all.
They had no amplifiers for large concerts back then. After the Beatles at Shea, manufacturers started building them.
Greatest Band of all time!👍👍🎸🎸🎸🥁😎
Recommend their performance of 'I'm down' at shea stadium. Never seen any footage of John Lennon having that much fun
evesapple when he plays the piano with his elbow😂
@@katewalls9950 And starts talking gibberish too, like he had a mental breakdown :D
Terrible song. And I'm a Beatles fan.
Well, that doesn't necessarily lend more credence to your opinion, you just don't like the song. As a Beatles fan, I don't particularly like the song Yellow Submarine.
But in any case, I was talking more about the performance. It is the performance at she a stadium that makes it.
I'll try to find it. It is so much fun to watch.
Their equipment was nowhere near sufficient to play to this many people. The fact they were able to sing anywhere near the right key is astounding. A testament to their working history as a working live band. I think their muscle memory in their vocal chords saved them that night.
"The Beatles" opened the door for everything that followed.
All their concerts were like that back then. I saw them in Sydney, Australia in 1964, you could barely hear them for the screaming but simply seeing them play live and the whole atmosphere inside the stadium made it an unforgettable memory.
Beatlemania was unreal and never ever topped! I know l’ve been a Beatle 🥜 for 57 years,play more you’ll See!💯☮️
Thank goodness they did this concert. If not for this concert, they wouldn't have stopped touring and if they hadn't have stopped touring they wouldn't have created some of pop music's greatest pieces
Their contract states that the Beatles would NOT perform for an audience that was segregated, which was shocking to some US audiences, especially in the South.
I'm glad you checked this out. I don't think any band will ever achieve the anything like Beatlemania again. Important to know that they followed Black Blues musicians from the US and that inspired their music
The GOAT. 20 number 1 songs in 7 years. Considered to have been the most influencial band during the rock era. Sold more records than Elvis and Michael Jackson and in a shorter time.
You have no idea how wondrous, how up-beat, "The Beatles" were!
Glad Y'all liked the concert. I was 14 when the Beatles came to America.
Not being funny but It’s not even known as one of the best concerts by the Beatles let alone one of the best concerts of all time. It’s just famous because it was the concert with the World Record for the biggest attendance at the time. It was the first ever massive rock concert in a stadium
Yup, there are MUCH better performances. This one's just famous because so many people went.
This was the very first stadium concert. There is a half-hour version of this on UA-cam in which technology has been used to improve the sound and lower the volume of the audience's screaming. I know this because I just watched it.
Those girls were out of their minds. They had never seen anything like the Beatles. I recommend studio work from them. You really can't appreciate them live because...girls..
Watch their Rooftop Concert.
I think it's really cool that I see you guys like you enjoy at listening and accepting the Beatles I think it's really cool
It was all new back then, imagine hearing your music now for the very first time having had to listen to mum and dads old fashioned music
They changed the music, they even changed the world
Still the top selling musicians of all time. They played practically every style of music during their 7 years at the top including Indian music. They invented "prog rock" and, according to some, heavy metal too.
The guy who introduced them was named Ed Sullivan. He had a Sunday night variety show on TV from 1948 to 1971.
So funny watching peoples faces in the crowd and seeing them realise the world will never be the same again.
My boys there. I am old now, but they make me feel young for a minute.
I'm old af but when I go to a Paul McCartney concert I'm screaming like this on the inside. 😂
Enjoyed you guys! Thanks!
The fans would get so loud at their concerts that equipment would break down and they wouldn't even know. The Beatles didn't even know. That's one of the reasons they stopped touring.
Ron Howard's movie "Eight Days A Week" has this concert. Crowd noise suppressed.
Can you imagine trying to harmonize when 60 thousand people are screaming like maniacs. I can't believe they still sound so good.
You guys are fun and respectful. Thanks.
I was there that night, in 1965 and again when The Beatles came back to Shea in 1966! The two most incredible, unforgettable nights of my life! The videos don't come close to sitting amongst the screaming, frenzied fans. It was both an exhilarating, and frightening experience to witness. Unbelievable!
Guys, by the way, this is a remastered version aimed at toning down the audience noise and making it so you can hear the music. The original film was the straight audio, and the crowd noise was so deafening that all you could hear was this high-pitched whine that would go to your inner ear and make you put your fingers in. This thing was totally out of control, and the only way they could make it into a watchable film was to do a remaster. But the original really gave you the impression of what the event was really like.
Check out Revolution the live performance by them it’s one of their few times performing live in their later years they stopped touring because they couldn’t hear themselves play so they became a studio only band and started experiment with their music
It was the largest audience in history to that point.
Great review guys..! Thank you..! 👏
They were playing out on 3rd base. I'm Down is the best Song played at Shea's. John is playing organ with his elbow, sliding it across the keys, George is laughing that he can't sing the "I'm Down" lyrics or play because John went off the rails laughing, elbowing the organ and singing: "Yaboo"! They were anything but down. They were so high on the adrenaline rush alone. Ringo couldn't hold the back beat because Paul had a tendency to play much faster when live, especially here. Ask anybody and they'll say "Sheas Stadium" Enjoy your journey of discovery guys. It's worth the trip.
Thank you for reacting to The Beatles! You cats have restored my faith in humanity, because earlier today I was chided by some people, whose ages are between yours and mine, for liking a Beatles performance and because I used it to draw some parallels to my (and their) favorite currently touring (tour postponed due to CV) band. Point of reference: When this was going on back then (1965), I was going on twelve-years-old! It is good to see young people enjoying this phenomenal band. Look for about a 17-minute video from that same year from a TV program called something like "Blackpool Night Out". The audience was polite and stopped screaming when the band was playing.
Freaking cool reaction
Thanks for watching 🙏🏾
When they were in Bloomington Minnesota I was there not in the stand but I was there it was something you would never experience ever
The guy at 5:33 was the Beatle's manager.
Loved you're honest reactions guys, excellent!
I said "bass" ball, note "base" ball!
Security got to be front row playing it cool while chasing fence jumpers.
I have faith that something new can come out of the blue again, and impact music like them once again for a long time to come.
I remember those days.
Just to put this into perspective, all those out of control screaming girls, are now grandmothers.
Top selling:
1. Beatles
2. Elvis
3. Michael
1st ever stadium concert.
The biggest crowd to date at this show. Two future Beatle wives were in the audience.
Really? Meryl Streep was a teenager at their show there in 1966.
It was the first Stadium rock concert ever. they broke the mold on things many times. you guys really did your research and read it well. i am impressed...from an old guy.
Welcome to greatness
Please react to While my guitar gently weeps (2018 mix)
I highly recommend The Who Live at the Isle of Wight, 1970. Their live version of " Young Man's Blues" is off the charts.
No one could hear them playing or singing...the women were screaming too loud. I was at one of their concerts sitting a few rows up. The Beatles are the biggest rock band in history. Their concerts were packed hysteria. The screaming never stopped🙉
There was no baseball game, just the concert.
Love this....thank you! Just hit subscribe for you guys!
One security guard commented that it was like standing next to a jet engine all night long...!
Great reaction guys, new sub. Much love
The Beatles never did live performance after that because of that reason
I don’t praise them, like, but I like them, like they are good......... aaaah youth.
This is a great performance because they couldn't hear a thing they were playing yet still played great lol
you should watch the entire concert
Most important performance as for as the first stadium show. House PA's lol
I remember first listening to the Beatles and I was “yeah, they are great, but it is just not my vibe”
I don’t wtf happened cuz now I really love the Beatles, I don’t even know how 😂 they are just, unique :)
What makes me love more the Beatles is that their songs are still being listened till these days, cuz most of these days songs (most, not all) changes every month, but lol
They made it okay for men to wear their hair below the top of their ears. They began the long hair era, which kind of ended around 1980.
Largest outdoor concert to that date: 70,000 fans. And they couldn't hear themselves.
4 lads mates from liverpool england amazing
“I guess” and “It’s not hitting my g-spot” had me dead so ima sub cuz of that 😂
Aye fuck that fool tho no cap he got no fucking taste
The fab 4
It was played thru the stadiums PA system . No big speakers like they have today. According to Paul McCartney it wouldn't have sound too good. They upgraded the amplifiers from 30 Watt to 100 Watt especially for the concert. Nowadays everyone has a 100 plus watt amplifier in their house hence why the screams drowned out the sound.
The Beatles songs have always been the best. Check out some even after they split. Girls used to faint at their concerts and once two girls tried to "mail" themselves in a box to their motel room. The Christians in America were so afraid of bad influence that they used to have "Beatle record burnings." John Lennon, one of the greatest singer-songwriters of all time was killed outside his motel room in 1980 by Mark Chapman, leaving several grieving nations.
He was killed outside of his home address at the Dakota in NYC.
If you want to see an incredible concert performance check out Pink Floyd Comfortably Numb 1994. The guitar is solo by David Gilmour is considered the greatest of all time
Best band ever!!!!!!
The Singing was more Like Screaming!! The Crowd was so Loud , they Couldn't here themselves Proforming!!
Ok, you guys are pretty young and you has me scared for a bit. I didn't know if you all would get into The Beatles. But you did and I thank you for that. You picked a couple of great songs to listen to so that helped. You have to realize that back then, concerts were usually a couple of thousand people. Nobody had ever been able to fill a stadium until The Beatles came along. Almost 60,000 people was unheard of in those days. That is what made this an unforgettable event. People that attended this concert say they couldn't hear one note of what The Beatles played due to the noise. I have heard it said it was like several jumbo jets at full throttle. I wish I could have gone, but first it was in New York, which at the time was like getting to the moon. It was so far away. (I'm in Texas), and second I was only 7 years old at the time. The ticket prices were only 6 dollars so that was not too much. But I was born a little too late. I just turned 64 this month and I am still a huge Beatles fan. Great reaction!
I used to know someone who took her son to this show. She said that it was so loud that her ears were ringing after she left the venue. Crazy days lol.
And their last concert was on the roof of the studio...
Before the stadium,concerts was played en cinamas or theatres..but the number of people who wants to see the Beatles was a huge,so the decide to use stadiums..
You should watch the entire Shea Stadium concert. That'w ill help you begin to understand.
My favorite groups back in my days Journey with Steve Perry, The Eagles, Chicago, Grand Funk Railroad and Bon Jovi too many to mention.
Top selling musicians of all time. This was the first stadium concert ever.
Flaming pie - Paul McCartney
Great reaction guys :)
Search on "Beatles" and "Ed Sullivan Show". You'll find their first US TV prerformance.
The crowd was so loud she couldn't even tell if your car was running or not
I would also recommend you watch one of Paul’s concerts like one from 2004 is what I’d suggest
Check out the Beatles in Australia.
That was really crazy! 300,000 people turned out just to see them arrive in town.
It's not even close to one of the greatest live performances of all time. The reason its famous is because it was the 1st Rock Concert in a Large Stadium.
Beatles were bigger than Michael Jackson. It's not even close. 20 number 1 songs in 6 years and then they split.
That was called beatlemania in the day
And very little crime recorded in the USA during this performance
You’re mixing this up with their first appearance on the Ed Sullivan show.
@@MsAppassionata ahh you are right lol
If you want to hear the first song that got cut off, it's called twist and shout, check out the videos on UA-cam.
Check out the prodigy mescaline , just for starters , or window licker ( full version ) by the aphex twin or come to daddy by aphex twin .
