• Rooftop Concert Recollections

    From Norbert K@21:1/5 to All on Mon Jun 6 07:08:30 2022
    "You had a sense of a rare and odd occasion, that you were actually at a Beatles concert with nobody up there except yourself," says Michael Lindsay-Hogg. "And probably because they didn't have the burden of an audience, they really did play for each
    other. In a funny way, it had sort of gone back to almost before they were famous, that they just played and hoped someone would like it."

    "It was quite good," says producer George Martin, who heard the audio portion while recording the show down in the Apple studio. It was a hell of a noise, I can tell you. You could hear it from Westminster."

    --Quoted from the June 4, 1987 issue of Rolling Stone

    That was my impression too, from watching the concert in IMAX. Along with the stunning visuals of them cramped on this small and slanted roof with the ruckus below, you could see they were just communicating with each other, with all that fantastic
    energy...
