Just to clarify, this is one of the last times they were together while being filmed. The last known photo of Ringo, Paul and George together was around 2000. They would have one last private meeting when George was dying from cancer.
What's wild is seeing how totally different the Beatles could sound - this is old school southern blues they are doing here, probably the same stuff they were playing at 15, and managed to sound completely authentic. That's just pure love of music.
They got together outside playing simple Ukeleles … and those few seconds and notes became that distintcfull AWESOME Beatles MAGIC!… Glad my 16 year old daughter learnt to appreciate their music!
Just seeing the three of them together at that point in their lives gives me chills. And the what ifs. If John hadn’t been murdered, would they have done anything together somewhere down the line. But we have their music for eternity. And the memories any particular song brings back for all of us. I know whenever I hear a Beatle song, some memory pops into my brain.
Es muy probable q se reunieran nuevamente antes de morir John ,Paul pidió a John una colaboración para su próximo álbum q no se pudo dar por obvias razones, claro está tal vez hubieran pasado muchos años para eso pero Paul y John ya tenían contacto hasta antes q muriera John y no era difícil suponer q el acercamiento con George y Ringo no fuera posible, a veces los años curan viejas heridas
John Lennon died about 20 years before I was born, so for me he was always just a part of history like any other famous figure. It is strange to think that he could easily still be here today if things had just gone a little differently.
I had read that Lennon (around the time of his death) thought the Beatles had been apart long enough for each of them to have their solo careers and wanted to get back together to produce an album.
As much as I still love the Anthology perfect I agree. I still wonder why Cynthia, Maureen, Patti, Jane, Yoko, Linda & a few others weren't interviewed.
Wow, that's 28 years ago and would put Ringo at 54 , Paul at 52 and George about 50. Now George is gone and Paul and Ringo are 80 and 82. For me 1994 seems like yesterday. Time is short and it does make you think of your own mortality. I turn 66 next month!
I was in the same 'room' as The Beatles. I saw them, live on my 9th b-day. 22Aug1965 PortlandOR USA My first thought was, 'That's really them' They played for 35 minutes, but it seemed much longer. It was smack dab in the middle of Beatlemania. Girls were screaming and crying at the same time. I was 9 It was the best place to be on the Planet.
I saw Paul in concert in Portland about 6 years ago. Between songs it got pretty quiet so I yelled as loud as I could ( ( I LOVE YOU ) ) .. Paul replied back on mic, I love you too! It was amazing.
That is a great story and a memory you will have forever. In a concert I held up a really small sign (half A4 sheet of paper) with a message. He saw it, we had eyecontact, he mouthed a question, I nodded, and he smiled back. I have never had such a feeling before or after. It was very special.
Fantastic to see the remaining three Beatles together (RIP George) and they were all still looking so young and healthy, as late as 1994, I could have sworn this was 1995 because that's when The Beatles Anthology was first aired Nov 1995.. What I find to be really strange is that this was around 27ish years ago from today 2022 and it was to commemorate 25 years since The Beatles split in 1970, however at the time 1970 to 1995 felt like many decades separated these eras but it was only a mere 25 years, where dramatic changes in fashion had occured and musically, yet 1995 to 2022 only seems like a 10 year petuod at the most where nothing hardly changed in fashion or music wise.. Makes you realise and appreciate how great we had it, being spoilt rotten with the fabs and other fabtastic music from the 60s, 70s, 80s and I suppose the 90s the very last decade of classic music.
And I still see three teens meeting to play songs in a garage, dreaming of making a career in music that might luckily last three or four years... I love you, Beatles. Thank you. The Love you take is equal to the Love you've made🥰
Great to see this again, tremendous legacy, chemistry and experience. Just think about what they knew about each other. Heart warming and as usual, all so polite and respectful. No massive egos around that table despite their eminence.
Always a pleasure to look at this clip off the anthology. The easy going friendship and humour and reminiscences lies deep within them. Such a shame that John couldn’t have been there.
George was a great F1 fan as you can see from the large picture of the late great Ayrton Senna in the McLaren behind Ringo. He also supported Damon Hill financially in his early racing days...What an amazing talent George was..and a great human being...a lovely man.
The car featured is actually XP5 which was the 5th prototype vehicle. McLaren still own it to this day. My guess is that McLaren lent it to George for this video as his was registered in January 1995 so presumably was still being made at the time of filming.
In the end, these 4 souls are a powerhouse that changed music. What is so beautiful is that they were always so Liverpool. They never lost their root... OK And who is my Fav.... I always love Ringo.
Never lost their roots? Despite them immediately moving to London never returning and Ringo laughing when Jonathan Ross asked him if he'd ever move back to Liverpool!
I was 35 when this was filmed. I had been a Beatles fan since the beginning when I was a child. My whole generation loved the Beatles. Seeing this was very cool, bit it tugged on my heart that it wasn't really a reunion as it could have been... John wasn't there. They were the absolute best band of all. All of them matured into good people and the message of their music was simple; all you need is love. They said it from the beginning all the way to The End... not a bad legacy for four poor kids from Liverpool....
After just watching Get Back and then watching them play here.....it has a different perspective now because Get Back showed us them in a whole new light.
I had sat on the living room floor and was in awe at the reunion and new hit song free as a bird. I choked up while watching the video. They were the guys I grew up listening to.
I was reading something about the Beatles and it was from an observer rather than a Beatle. But they were talking about the carmarderie was still there, and as soon as they started into their very first song, they were just on it, you could see exactly why they are and remain the best. I don't know who you are, but I absolutely agree. Their genius and personalities shine through with stifling each other and the songs. Rest in Peace John and George, see you soon guys.
I remember when they were putting together this Anthology album. Everyone was hoping they'd do a reunion tour with Julian filling in for his Dad. Unfortunately it wasn't to be, at least we have this video! Thanks for posting.
When The Beatles started recording "Free As A Bird" in Feb.1994...the UK papers said that "The 3 Beatles will be playing a MASSIVE concert in Central Park in NYC during the summer. The Beatles will be paid $35,000,000 US each...and might be joined on stage by Sean and Julian Lennon!" Of course it never happened. In early 1996...they were offered $250,000,000 for a tour of the US...UK...and Japan...and Sid Bernstein offered them $500,000,000 for 20 minutes at Shea Stadium on August 23, 1996...all offers were refused.
@@beatlejim64 that’s fuckn crazy there’s no way they were offered that much to play and performed but then again I understand because the Beatles wouldn’t be complete without John and they kept an Oath that if one wasn’t in the band or passed away then they will go out as the Beatles.
@ The New Era Of Music Wrong. They were indeed made that offer. It was in an old people magazine. You’re forgetting. 500M, between the 3 of them and Yoko breaks down to about 125 each. Then, they got to do promo and videos and all the rest. There was no reason to do it without John. I’m so glad it never happened. These videos show what they did as a band was special. But here they sound crazy generic and boring. The records are what remain fresh. And if they’re not enough, Paul literally has covered every Beatle song in his tours. They ate special because they quit when they did. And it was it:
Saw Paul McCartney in Nov 1989 at The Forum in Inglewood. Fantastic - his first world tour under his own name. His piano was on a platform that lifted him to almost balcony level. That's where he played "Hey Jude". And we were seated on the side balcony closest to the piano. omfg
Man oh man, this gave me goose bumps. It's so hard to find the words to describe it. My mind flew wondering what if they had that reunion, what venue that'll be large enough for I'm sure millions would've like to see them. But, there are things in this world that really aren't meant to be. Thank you so so much for sharing this video.
They did have a reunion, which produced new songs for the Anthology CD set. These were new recordings by the Beatles. They did not tour after 1966 I think. But they did not end in 1966.
Ths is great,all the old resentments through with and just 3 old friends hanging out and having fun. The chemistry is there and the harmonies but knowing they did bot have the mantle of performing to the public as The Beatles made them feel comfortable in my eyes.
I remember watching this when it came out and wishing I'd been there, just jamming. So much fun to just get together with your band, or mates, and make joyful noises.
This was fun to see. I saw them all in concert the 3 times that they came to San Francisco. So I was at their last concert ever at Candlestick Park. Little did we know….. But they were right, you could barely even hear them, and I was up close in the stands. There were no seats on the field to the best of my memory, but there may have been.
The Beatles will live forever in our hearts and minds ! They changed my life as a 7 year old in 1964 being on the Ed Sullivan show on 2/9/64 on TV. I am a big Beatles fan even at my age of 67 in 2023 I will be Intill the day I die I was in a rock band in the 1980s I became a bass player because of Paul he made playing bass cool.
Ever since they stopped touring, there's always this weird, very, very slightly dysfunctional chemistry when you'd see them (3 or 4 of them) together. I describe it like this: Ringo just adores and cherishes being with "the boys." His love is unconditional. George is okay with Ringo, but George has this thing with Paul. I wouldn't call it hate. But I would say there's a low-level resentment of Paul. Probably born out of jealousy or envy. For Paul's part, he's going to command the room any time they're all together. He's the most outgoing and he likes being the center of attention. Besides, SOMEBODY'S gotta do it. He's aware of the fact that George isn't his biggest fan, but he tries to be civil and keep the optics good. All three of them are amazing talents. And yes, to have had John there, with them, in the flesh, would've been the absolute best.
Nailed it exactly. George had major issues with Paul but the fact is , Paul was like that from the beginning, along with John. It was George who's ego changed around the latter years, thinking he deserved more input.
@@mrsbluesky8415 You always knew that the most memorable thing that would come from any media coverage of the Beatles would be something John said, whether it set off record burnings all over the United States or howls of laughter all over the world.
@@TheKevza John was a bit more accommodating of George. He gave him songs to sing before George wrote any himself. Paul never did that. By the time George really came into his own, John was saying things like George's songs were the best thing on Abbey Road while Paul was telling him how to play his guitar. John was angry and genuinely hurt when George barely gave him a mention in I, Me, Mine. Paul couldn't have cared less.
George, Paul and Ringo were always my favorite Beatles. They seemed very down to earth, you can tell they are friends as nd the three of them were do talented. RIP George, and all the very best to Paul and Ringo.
0:32 "Should we go make a Record?" This really captives I think Paul's enthusiasm with this reunion. It's really sad they never did a full on Album it would have been really awesome!! If i had to guess why it didn't happen, it had to do with there was a lack of comfortability playing together without John being there. I remember them mentioning how hard it was emotionally for them to do Free As a Bird, Real Love and rightfuly so RIP John. I Think also they still had some creative tension, for instance the third song "Now And Then" George didn't like the sound of how it was coming along in the Sessions so it never appeared on the Anthologies and got rejected. Despite not much content that got recorded unfortunately in the end they probably felt they didn't need to, after all The Beatles will be remembered until the end of the world!! 💯💯🔥🔥.
@@Roku177 Thanks for your support. 🤓 No need for literally. It's unnecessary. 🙌🇬🇧🙌 Ps Update.....judging by the venomous comments elsewhere. I'm opening it up to debate surely? ua-cam.com/video/-e__TbhQGJU/v-deo.html
@@633squadrongoodwin They're thirty years younger (1964/65) previous age, would say they were. That they were old in 1994. McCartney nowadays sounds like a geriatric. Voice croaked. Embarrassing. Oh! Excuse me. I've just looked at your videos. Pretty Woman etc. All is revealed. I would apologise.
I feel like you can still detect some frostiness between Paul and George, who I think really genuinely loved each other but still got on each other’s nerves.
George didn't like that Paul had to lead The Beatles after Brian Epstein died. Ringo said that without Paul, their output would've been half of what Paul made it be. George wrote 5 great songs, and wanted to be treated as the equal of John and Paul, who wrote over 100.
@@gordeauxd this is what I always say when people talk about George wanting equal output. He never had the catalogue of songs that Paul had. I mean, he got freedom on the white album and we got piggies and savoy truffle lol you can't just give another member of the band equal billing if they don't have the songs to back it up. George's ego was the biggest issue in the end I believe.
@@TheKevza To be fair, I LOVE George's contributions to the White Album (not Piggies so much) - and his work on Abbey Road and eventually All Things Must Pass suggests he had a spell there where he was working at the same level as J+P, and of course in the early days in Hamburg they would share stage time and lead vocals almost totally equally, which took a back seat. I can imagine both Lennon and McCartney would be a nightmare to be in a band with, even though I think they were fundamentally good guys.
I feel so privilege to see this f Documentary because it just shows how down to earth the Beatles are and their love for each other shines in their hearts They are and always will be The Beatles The one and only Group That Rocked Our Hearts and Souls and their Music will Stand the Test of Time Rest Rest in peace Mr John Lennon without you and your 3 close mate's We forever Beatle fans would not have gotten to hear and listen to your fabulous . music and seen your talents experience your sexy Haircuts and you all's friendships that are still a live in your Music Rest in peace Mr John Lennon and Mr George Harrison and Ring you and Paul keep keeping your loyal Beatle fans Happy with your one of a kind Music and Talent Yeah yeah Yeah yeah we will always remember and love you
Although firsts and lasts of important groups are noteworthy I am thinking about the many, many meetings these gentlemen had when they were in the midst of creating music together. I am thinking of the meetings when things clicked. When John brought in a part of a song and the others added their bits and their opinions and the song became what we would recognize. Imagine the give and takes, the suppression of ego, the friendly banter, the unfriendly banter, the joy, the brilliance and the foolishness that on myriad times would lead to the creation of some of music’s masterpieces. I like to think of four lads giggling together while a maelstrom of fan fed insanity whirled around them. How many meetings where bonds of brotherhood were forged and sadly where some were broken. I want to celebrate those meetings too.
It would be great just to see them going about their day just sharing conversation, doing absolutely nothing (-a bit we got here with them sitting around the table talking about the old days). If they filmed 250 hours of the three of them just puttering around doing nothing I'd watch every minute! Just watching them talk and the resulting camaraderie, is fascinating
The Beatles is a awesome group, alot of great songs.And a great reunion for Paul McCartney and George Harrison and Ringo Starr.May John Lennon RIP 💐 I remember in 1980, when he passed away I was 14,was so sad.
I myself was three months shy of 17. That morning after his death, I was in a fog at school. My thoughts were truly not on school. Six hours later I ended up getting sent home from school thanks to a stomach flu. Seriously one of the worst day of my life.
@@alonenjersey That was very understandable under the circumstances. I'm sure lots of other fans reacted in a similar way at the time. Yours was an entirely human response to such tragic news.
@@stephenalanmoore7278 The only other time I felt just as awful (emotionally) was when my beloved Mom passed away (12/31/06). It was just as shocking as when my sister told me of Johns' death the morning after.
I still believe if they had all lived they would've played together again eventually. Not sure if they would've made an album, but they may have played together at least.
Just had this hit watching the three "lads" reminiscing around a table... one was missing. I wonder how the Lennon tree would have continued to grow. I tried to "imagine" him there, with Paul, George and Ringo. There would be different sparks for sure. In Beatle world, John was in charge of sparks. I sure miss his sparks as a fan.
This 2023..seeing even just the 3 remaining Beatles then.......was a trip down memory lane with a bug gap-John's missing presence! Truly Brothers after all! RIP JOHN and GEORGE!
We're so lucky to have been a part of a civilization that witnessed their journey first hand. Hundreds of years from now, the only musically relevant artists that will be remembered from our culture will be the Beatles.
A great set of film clips. All three elements (studio, garden, coffee table) are available to see in longer versions on UA-cam. When I originally saw the full studio film on its own I had wrongly assumed it was at Paul's studio in Sussex and didn't initially realise that they were all filmed at Friar Park. George's reference to meeting somebody backstage in the 1970s was Elvis Presley. In the longer version the explanation is more evident, they had all been huge fans of him back in their youth. Whether it is just the three of them or not, it was always good to see this set of films as footage and/or photos containing more than two of the group was incredibly rare indeed after the split. In particular, footage of Paul and George together is incredibly rare with the only other footage I have seen of them both was the two of them signing The Beatles dissolution papers in the NY Plaza Hotel in about 1974. John was meant to be there too but he didn't turn up - now if he had then what a rare bit of film that would have been!
When their sitting around the table, just shooting the breeze, reminiscing, reminds me of me & my buddies chillin about old times except we don't have musical talent & we're not ritch. Other then that, we're exactly the same. 😆 lol
É emocionante ver no cenário onde estão reunidos os 3 ex-beatles, ao fundo um poster do lendário Ayrton Senna a bordo de sua Mclaren 1993, um orgulho dos brasileiros.
4:33 George always told this story of how the Beatle cut started, but it's different than what others say. Originally when first asked in 1964 he said "I came out of the pool and my hair was forward and the others liked it so it stuck". Here he retells it with a slight variation, but the consensus is what Paul says, that it was Astrid, Jurgen, and Klaus that initiated it. Notice how George starts uking over him, since that contradicts what he just said
Just an observation: The four including the obvious absence of John that completed the circle in their personalities. Paul being connected to George at one side of thought stands to the more public front man and connected to Ringo on the other Ringo connected to John ( now sadly absent ) was a buffer between Paul and John's rougher edge like a peacemaker between them while on Johns other extreme met with George's far extreme completing the circle of creativity and dynamic musical brilliance in range there will ever be. They all interacted so very well together mutually
Yaaas!! You got their diff pair ups right!! Paul & George, great guitarists (Taxman & And Your Bird Can Sing!🧡), with Paul being the more outspoken, both creative composers too, but John was also a good guitarist, composer & joker of the band, which Ringo is too, who has a steady playing of the drums & the peaceful member in the band too, which spiritual George is kinda like that too in his lifestyle & beliefs… which Paul is kinda like that too as he doesn’t rly know how to joke ard as much😅😅they just complement each other😍
I remember when I saw this material for the first time. I knew it might we see them last time together. You can see how much John is missing among them. How I was also "kick" me by the sight of my other idol on the wall - Ayrton Senna.But i knew that George is a big motorsport fan. The Beatles was something total unique. It's a bit sad that such people in one team and such a phenomenon as this group will never happen again in history.
The Beatles ARE music! No matter their age, the joy & bliss of music shows on their handsome faces. Even now, Paul & Ringo get off of just playing. What incredible men they are & how lucky we are to have lived thru it!
Just beautiful. When I was a kid, one time I dreamed I was with the Beatles playing let it be...then I realized I was paul! That became the first song I learned on piano.
Such a relaxed visit by the remaining Beatles that they could reminisce and enjoy each other's company with the pressure of being a Beatle long past, not having to perform up to the expectation of being legends.
Interesting how George says he wanted to tell Elvis to ditch the backing singers, enlarged band and “go back and play ‘ ‘That’s Alright, Mama’…” when you consider that George himself was vocal about being not too inclined to go back and be his earlier self again…
Just to clarify, this is one of the last times they were together while being filmed. The last known photo of Ringo, Paul and George together was around 2000. They would have one last private meeting when George was dying from cancer.
Was this photo public somehow or was it kept private?
@@enjoeymusic It's definitely public. It was also taken by Pattie Boyd.

Lets just say it is the last time they talked about the old days. Like it a lot... So happy this came out.
after eternity of years later… there was NOW AND THEN
George was a great F1 fan as you can see from the large picture of the late great Ayrton Senna in the McLaren behind Ringo.
He also supported Damon Hill financially in his early racing days...What an amazing talent George was..and a great human being...a lovely man.

Plus only just under 2 months after Ayrton senna died
In the end, these 4 souls are a powerhouse that changed music. What is so beautiful is that they were always so Liverpool. They never lost their root... OK And who is my Fav.... I always love Ringo.

Ypu can just see they are having a great time jamming and just being together like old times.
George Harrison only did this for the money.
Nobody will ever replace them in the number 1 spot. The reason being, if not for The Beatles, rock music would died in the early 60s.
I love how much Paul has fun with his brothers when they’re in their element.
After just watching Get Back and then watching them play here.....it has a different perspective now because Get Back showed us them in a whole new light.
I had sat on the living room floor and was in awe at the reunion and new hit song free as a bird. I choked up while watching the video. They were the guys I grew up listening to.
George always had the exact same personality he never aged
I was reading something about the Beatles and it was from an observer rather than a Beatle. But they were talking about the carmarderie was still there, and as soon as they started into their very first song, they were just on it, you could see exactly why they are and remain the best. I don't know who you are, but I absolutely agree. Their genius and personalities shine through with stifling each other and the songs.
Rest in Peace John and George, see you soon guys.
How they changed so many lives!!! Thank you for all the great memories in my life.
I remember when they were putting together this Anthology album. Everyone was hoping they'd do a reunion tour with Julian filling in for his Dad. Unfortunately it wasn't to be, at least we have this video! Thanks for posting.
When The Beatles started recording "Free As A Bird" in Feb.1994...the UK papers said that "The 3 Beatles will be playing a MASSIVE concert in Central Park in NYC during the summer. The Beatles will be paid $35,000,000 US each...and might be joined on stage by Sean and Julian Lennon!" Of course it never happened. In early 1996...they were offered $250,000,000 for a tour of the US...UK...and Japan...and Sid Bernstein offered them $500,000,000 for 20 minutes at Shea Stadium on August 23, 1996...all offers were refused.
@@beatlejim64 that’s fuckn crazy there’s no way they were offered that much to play and performed but then again I understand because the Beatles wouldn’t be complete without John and they kept an Oath that if one wasn’t in the band or passed away then they will go out as the Beatles.
@@AsWellYouShould To me, the best look a like for John was Gordon Waller from the duo Peter and Gordon.
@@AsWellYouShould oh shut up, Julian is great - and it would have made perfect sense to have him in that position.
@ The New Era Of Music
Wrong. They were indeed made that offer. It was in an old people magazine.
You’re forgetting. 500M, between the 3 of them and Yoko breaks down to about 125 each. Then, they got to do promo and videos and all the rest. There was no reason to do it without John.
I’m so glad it never happened.
These videos show what they did as a band was special. But here they sound crazy generic and boring.
The records are what remain fresh.
And if they’re not enough, Paul literally has covered every Beatle song in his tours.
They ate special because they quit when they did. And it was it:
Saw Paul McCartney in Nov 1989 at The Forum in Inglewood. Fantastic - his first world tour under his own name. His piano was on a platform that lifted him to almost balcony level. That's where he played "Hey Jude". And we were seated on the side balcony closest to the piano. omfg
What is special about The Beatles is that they are all individually so goddamn lovable creatures with great chemistry.
Man oh man, this gave me goose bumps. It's so hard to find the words to describe it. My mind flew wondering what if they had that reunion, what venue that'll be large enough for I'm sure millions would've like to see them. But, there are things in this world that really aren't meant to be. Thank you so so much for sharing this video.
They did have a reunion, which produced new songs for the Anthology CD set. These were new recordings by the Beatles. They did not tour after 1966 I think. But they did not end in 1966.
@@777jones No they did NOT have a reunion..John wasn’t there.
Ths is great,all the old resentments through with and just 3 old friends hanging out and having fun. The chemistry is there and the harmonies but knowing they did bot have the mantle of performing to the public as The Beatles made them feel comfortable in my eyes.
I remember watching this when it came out and wishing I'd been there, just jamming. So much fun to just get together with your band, or mates, and make joyful noises.
This was fun to see. I saw them all in concert the 3 times that they came to San Francisco. So I was at their last concert ever at Candlestick Park. Little did we know….. But they were right, you could barely even hear them, and I was up close in the stands. There were no seats on the field to the best of my memory, but there may have been.
The Beatles will live forever in our hearts and minds ! They changed my life as a 7 year old in 1964 being on the Ed Sullivan show on 2/9/64 on TV. I am a big Beatles fan even at my age of 67 in 2023 I will be Intill the day I die I was in a rock band in the 1980s I became a bass player because of Paul he made playing bass cool.
This brings me so much joy and sadness at the same time. My boys minus one ❤❤❤💔
That crooked tablecloth, though 😂
Ever since they stopped touring, there's always this weird, very, very slightly dysfunctional chemistry when you'd see them (3 or 4 of them) together. I describe it like this: Ringo just adores and cherishes being with "the boys." His love is unconditional. George is okay with Ringo, but George has this thing with Paul. I wouldn't call it hate. But I would say there's a low-level resentment of Paul. Probably born out of jealousy or envy. For Paul's part, he's going to command the room any time they're all together. He's the most outgoing and he likes being the center of attention. Besides, SOMEBODY'S gotta do it. He's aware of the fact that George isn't his biggest fan, but he tries to be civil and keep the optics good. All three of them are amazing talents. And yes, to have had John there, with them, in the flesh, would've been the absolute best.
Both Paul and George have said that they got on each others' nerves.
And if John were alive, he’d have been the center of attention. He was the natural leader whether he wanted it or not.
Nailed it exactly. George had major issues with Paul but the fact is , Paul was like that from the beginning, along with John. It was George who's ego changed around the latter years, thinking he deserved more input.
@@mrsbluesky8415 You always knew that the most memorable thing that would come from any media coverage of the Beatles would be something John said, whether it set off record burnings all over the United States or howls of laughter all over the world.
@@TheKevza John was a bit more accommodating of George. He gave him songs to sing before George wrote any himself. Paul never did that. By the time George really came into his own, John was saying things like George's songs were the best thing on Abbey Road while Paul was telling him how to play his guitar. John was angry and genuinely hurt when George barely gave him a mention in I, Me, Mine. Paul couldn't have cared less.
They
All Loved each other&
We’re
Brothers
♥️🌟💙🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🎸🎸
JUst to clarify they did not play any BEATLE song.. all of those songs in the footage are old but not theirs.
They played Thinking of Linking at one stage and George played Dehra Dun from the India trip.
George began playing I Will on the ukulele while they’re talking 🤦🏿♂️
George, Paul and Ringo were always my favorite Beatles. They seemed very down to earth, you can tell they are friends as nd the three of them were do talented. RIP George, and all the very best to Paul and Ringo.
"Sir Paul" (William) is in love with himself.
Uh, John was a part of it too. I realize you obviously hate him but he was one of them. Deal with it.
Having seen the 3 of them solo but not collectively makes this FAB confab even more meaningful....
0:32 "Should we go make a Record?" This really captives I think Paul's enthusiasm with this reunion. It's really sad they never did a full on Album it would have been really awesome!! If i had to guess why it didn't happen, it had to do with there was a lack of comfortability playing together without John being there. I remember them mentioning how hard it was emotionally for them to do Free As a Bird, Real Love and rightfuly so RIP John. I Think also they still had some creative tension, for instance the third song "Now And Then" George didn't like the sound of how it was coming along in the Sessions so it never appeared on the Anthologies and got rejected.
Despite not much content that got recorded unfortunately in the end they probably felt they didn't need to, after all The Beatles will be remembered until the end of the world!! 💯💯🔥🔥.
Why?

@@633squadrongoodwin They're thirty years younger (1964/65) previous age, would say they were. That they were old in 1994. McCartney nowadays sounds like a geriatric. Voice croaked. Embarrassing.
Oh!
Excuse me. I've just looked at your videos. Pretty Woman etc.
All is revealed. I would apologise.
This is 30 years after coming to America and I’m watching this 28 years after this meeting! Wow!
It's such a bittersweet treat to watch this
I feel like you can still detect some frostiness between Paul and George, who I think really genuinely loved each other but still got on each other’s nerves.
Yes, both love and frostiness were seen here.
George didn't like that Paul had to lead The Beatles after Brian Epstein died. Ringo said that without Paul, their output would've been half of what Paul made it be. George wrote 5 great songs, and wanted to be treated as the equal of John and Paul, who wrote over 100.
@@gordeauxd this is what I always say when people talk about George wanting equal output. He never had the catalogue of songs that Paul had. I mean, he got freedom on the white album and we got piggies and savoy truffle lol you can't just give another member of the band equal billing if they don't have the songs to back it up. George's ego was the biggest issue in the end I believe.
So could I . Not the perfect little”reunion”is it?🙄
@@TheKevza To be fair, I LOVE George's contributions to the White Album (not Piggies so much) - and his work on Abbey Road and eventually All Things Must Pass suggests he had a spell there where he was working at the same level as J+P, and of course in the early days in Hamburg they would share stage time and lead vocals almost totally equally, which took a back seat. I can imagine both Lennon and McCartney would be a nightmare to be in a band with, even though I think they were fundamentally good guys.
I feel so privilege to see this f
Documentary because it just shows how down to earth the Beatles are and their love for each other shines in their hearts They are and always will be The Beatles The one and only Group That Rocked Our Hearts and Souls and their Music will Stand the Test of Time Rest Rest in peace Mr John Lennon without you and your 3 close mate's We forever Beatle fans would not have gotten to hear and listen to your fabulous . music and seen your talents experience your sexy Haircuts and you all's friendships that are still a live in your Music Rest in peace Mr John Lennon and Mr George Harrison and Ring you and Paul keep keeping your loyal Beatle fans Happy with your one of a kind Music and Talent Yeah yeah Yeah yeah we will always remember and love you
Although firsts and lasts of important groups are noteworthy I am thinking about the many, many meetings these gentlemen had when they were in the midst of creating music together. I am thinking of the meetings when things clicked. When John brought in a part of a song and the others added their bits and their opinions and the song became what we would recognize. Imagine the give and takes, the suppression of ego, the friendly banter, the unfriendly banter, the joy, the brilliance and the foolishness that on myriad times would lead to the creation of some of music’s masterpieces. I like to think of four lads giggling together while a maelstrom of fan fed insanity whirled around them. How many meetings where bonds of brotherhood were forged and sadly where some were broken. I want to celebrate those meetings too.
George really was a master on the ukelele.
Even at the end, it is amazing how much Elvis meant to them..
The last performance of the 3 surviving Beatles unforgettable
Sometimes they sound like me and my friends jamming at a BBQ, other times they sound like the greatest band on Earth.
It's amazing the beatles could play anything
I will always love them.
It would be great just to see them going about their day just sharing conversation, doing absolutely nothing (-a bit we got here
with them sitting around the table talking about the old days).
If they filmed 250 hours of the three of them just puttering around doing nothing I'd watch every minute!
Just watching them talk and the resulting camaraderie, is fascinating
What's Peter Jackson doing next month?????
The Beatles is a awesome group, alot of great songs.And a great reunion for Paul McCartney and George Harrison and Ringo Starr.May John Lennon RIP 💐 I remember in 1980, when he passed away I was 14,was so sad.
Hello Lisa how are you doing
I myself was three months shy of 17. That morning after his death, I was in a fog at school. My thoughts were truly not on school. Six hours later I ended up getting sent home from school thanks to a stomach flu. Seriously one of the worst day of my life.
@@alonenjersey yes I agree and was sad that John Lennon passed away.Sorry you was sick.
@@alonenjersey That was very understandable under the circumstances. I'm sure lots of other fans reacted in a similar way at the time. Yours was an entirely human response to such tragic news.
@@stephenalanmoore7278 The only other time I felt just as awful (emotionally) was when my beloved Mom passed away (12/31/06). It was just as shocking as when my sister told me of Johns' death the morning after.
Damn I miss George. John too. But George… unique.
Damn I miss John. George too, but John is unique.
I still believe if they had all lived they would've played together again eventually. Not sure if they would've made an album, but they may have played together at least.
For a quick buck sure why not. I'm sure John would have liked Sean to see them play together to see that his dad was a hero.
Just had this hit watching the three "lads" reminiscing around a table... one was missing. I wonder how the Lennon tree would have continued to grow. I tried to "imagine" him there, with Paul, George and Ringo. There would be different sparks for sure. In Beatle world, John was in charge of sparks. I sure miss his sparks as a fan.
By the looks of George's car he was living in the Material World! Ha! Ha!
This 2023..seeing even just the 3 remaining Beatles then.......was a trip down memory lane with a bug gap-John's missing presence! Truly Brothers after all! RIP JOHN and GEORGE!
Imagine just picking up an instrument and mucking about with your best mates on a Sunday afternoon, yet sounding like the Beatles every time 😅🤣
We're so lucky to have been a part of a civilization that witnessed their journey first hand. Hundreds of years from now, the only musically relevant artists that will be remembered from our culture will be the Beatles.
A great set of film clips. All three elements (studio, garden, coffee table) are available to see in longer versions on UA-cam. When I originally saw the full studio film on its own I had wrongly assumed it was at Paul's studio in Sussex and didn't initially realise that they were all filmed at Friar Park. George's reference to meeting somebody backstage in the 1970s was Elvis Presley. In the longer version the explanation is more evident, they had all been huge fans of him back in their youth. Whether it is just the three of them or not, it was always good to see this set of films as footage and/or photos containing more than two of the group was incredibly rare indeed after the split. In particular, footage of Paul and George together is incredibly rare with the only other footage I have seen of them both was the two of them signing The Beatles dissolution papers in the NY Plaza Hotel in about 1974. John was meant to be there too but he didn't turn up - now if he had then what a rare bit of film that would have been!
When their sitting around the table, just shooting the breeze, reminiscing, reminds me of me & my buddies chillin about old times except we don't have musical talent & we're not ritch. Other then that, we're exactly the same. 😆 lol
Que maravilla!!!!
Verlos juntos.
É emocionante ver no cenário onde estão reunidos os 3 ex-beatles, ao fundo um poster do lendário Ayrton Senna a bordo de sua Mclaren 1993, um orgulho dos brasileiros.
4 Gênios apareceram neste vídeo. Só faltou o John. Saudade de George e do Senna.
George Harrison era fa assumido de SENNA.
@@LETSGOBRAZIL55 Imagino se o Senna soubesse que o George era seu fã, para ele seria uma honra, ainda mais um ex-Beatle.
un très beau souvenir.....merci
If only John was still alive he would have definitely been there. He was there in spirit
This is so Beautiful I'm loving every minute of it
4:33 George always told this story of how the Beatle cut started, but it's different than what others say. Originally when first asked in 1964 he said "I came out of the pool and my hair was forward and the others liked it so it stuck". Here he retells it with a slight variation, but the consensus is what Paul says, that it was Astrid, Jurgen, and Klaus that initiated it. Notice how George starts uking over him, since that contradicts what he just said
Just an observation:
The four including the obvious absence of John that completed the circle in their personalities.
Paul being connected to George at one side of thought stands to the more public front man and connected to Ringo on the other Ringo connected to John ( now sadly absent ) was a buffer between Paul and John's rougher edge like a peacemaker between them while on Johns other extreme met with George's far extreme completing the circle of creativity and dynamic musical brilliance in range there will ever be. They all interacted so very well together mutually
Yaaas!! You got their diff pair ups right!! Paul & George, great guitarists (Taxman & And Your Bird Can Sing!🧡), with Paul being the more outspoken, both creative composers too, but John was also a good guitarist, composer & joker of the band, which Ringo is too, who has a steady playing of the drums & the peaceful member in the band too, which spiritual George is kinda like that too in his lifestyle & beliefs… which Paul is kinda like that too as he doesn’t rly know how to joke ard as much😅😅they just complement each other😍
It’s so nice to see them together jamming and having tea, but there’s also a sadness because John couldn’t be there. 😓
funny how much all the memories of hamburg and klaus and astrid etc are still in their heads after all these years 😂
I remember when I saw this material for the first time. I knew it might we see them last time together. You can see how much John is missing among them. How I was also "kick" me by the sight of my other idol on the wall - Ayrton Senna.But i knew that George is a big motorsport fan. The Beatles was something total unique. It's a bit sad that such people in one team and such a phenomenon as this group will never happen again in history.
The Beatles were, not was.
John Lennon was murdered over 40 year
The Beatles ARE music!
No matter their age, the joy & bliss of music shows on their handsome faces.
Even now, Paul & Ringo get off of just playing.
What incredible men they are & how lucky we are to have lived thru it!
Que triste! Falta John . Inesquecíveis. O mundo ama esses meninos. GRATIDÃO
Just beautiful. When I was a kid, one time I dreamed I was with the Beatles playing let it be...then I realized I was paul! That became the first song I learned on piano.
Theres no doubt in my mind they wouldve all settled their differences if John lived.
Such a relaxed visit by the remaining Beatles that they could reminisce and enjoy each other's company with the pressure of being a Beatle long past, not having to perform up to the expectation of being legends.
THANKS FOR YOUR NICE COMPILATION ! THE BEATLES REMAIN A PHENOMENON .....THE TIME THEY STAY TOGETHER WAS NOT LONG , BUT THEIR MUSIC LIVES ON !!
paul and george voices together just magic. obviously woulve loved john there but he was on the album
Interesting how George
says he wanted to tell Elvis
to ditch the backing singers,
enlarged band and
“go back and play ‘
‘That’s Alright, Mama’…”
when you consider that
George himself was vocal about
being not too inclined
to go back and be his earlier self
again…
Yeah they should had kept playing She loves you, they were great then! Or was evolve ass an artist was just for some people!
Oh well, people say all sorts of stuff.
You, me, George…contradict ourselves.
Amazingly talented, personable. So cute yet, they all looked so very happy & healthy. What a phenomenon they were!!
I love the way George still shreads on that ukelele
The really drew out the best in each other. The looks they share. True brothers.
