Beatles documentary “Get Back”

A real shame they split, massive shame. Ive learned lately though that it wasnt Yoko who split them up, it was Allen Klein, who John wanted as manager. Paul didnt.
Years later, John admitted Paul was right about Klein.

Maybe, maybe not. Lot of reasons. someone posted earlier in the thread and I think he had it right. Simply, they all grew up.

Yes they had differences, but also fun and laughs (as we can see).
The Klein thing was the biggie though, law suits between Paul and the others, unreconcilable really.
 
Not directly connected to the discussion but I just came across this guy playing Come Together on a dobro guitar delta blues style. Really good take on it!

spot on

also would like to add that billy preston was magic on the electric piano and the sound with macca and john's voice on don't let me down. and let it be. sends the shivers down your back and hairs on your body to stand up

Dont really know a lot about the beatles, how famous were they when this was recorded? just watching the people in the background fascinates me, there is one bloke in a blue jumper talking to the other people like he is waiting for a bus, at one point they are facing the other way just chatting, then some check there watches and walk off while the beatles are half way through there song? where was it recorded, cheers.

Even within Get Back ep.3, George was talking about doing solo work to John. John was listening to him and you could see it sparked something in his own mind.

GH “yeah, I just think I’d like to work my own thing away from The Beatles thing, and for all of us to do that, you know?”
JL “what doing our own albums?”
GH “yeah”
JL - expressed a sort of ‘wow, good idea!’ on his face

I think a part of it was them simply fancying doing their own thing, expressing their own tastes on their own. Like you say, they’d grown up and had their own ideas. Especially George who was like a blossoming younger brother to Paul and John. And you can see that in George’s solo album which is the best solo work by any Beatle.
