Description:I have the right to edit or remove user comments at my will. Vulgar, hate, redundant or otherwise. I haven't blocked them all because some are actually informative. Please read them if you want to know some Beatles history. "Dig a Pony" "Get Back" Thursday - 30 January 1969 Apple Corps (Roof), London The Beatles' celebrated rooftop show. An idea conceived during a meeting on 26 January, it was the first of two consecutive Beatles/Billy Preston performances which concluded the Get Back project, for on 31 January they ran through numbers inside the basement studio. This day's work has passed into history as the Beatles' last live performance, even if it couldn't be classified as a concert. The 42-minute show (about half of which comprises the sensational close to the Let It Be film) was a lunchtime blast into the cold wind - imagine a high London rooftop in January - that brought part of the capital to a standstill, until the police, in turn, brought the show to an enforced conclusion. Much was commercially used from the 42 minutes on the roof, in the Let It Be film and on the Get Back (unissued) and Let It Be albums. What follows is a detailed description of the full rooftop repertoire, as preserved on EMI's eight-track tapes, with a guide to how it was made available.

Awesome vocalist but what, huh? I'm guessing you don't mean you disliked his mustache. GTFO you religious homophobic twat.

They are very good live. They were seen as more of a studio band. But this is amazing

At 4:18, the guy with glasses turns off George's amp. At 4:30, the guy tells George the cops are ordering them to stop. at 4:45, George says 'F U' and turns the amp back on. The coppers, knowing they've lost, just let the song play out.

how can any one dis-like this?
– robinnelms @ Jun 6, 2011
im going to asume you dont live in the US. Hey and didnt Ringo say jokingly that he wanted to be arrested because the ending of Get Back would have been that?
– cesararraiga @ Jun 6, 2011
get back song 2 times?
– aryowailangitoyo97 @ Jun 7, 2011
yes, they did it again at the end because the police had came to make them stop playing, so I guess they played get back as it seemed quite fitting to tell the police to "get back". I think they actually said they hoped the police were going to drag them all away and arrest them all so they could finish their days of playing live together once and for all in style... but that wasn't to be.

Here I am listening to the greatest music ever imagined and I can't help but thinking how amazing those microphones are. As I'm typing I'm trying to order one offline.
– lolliejordan1 @ Jun 8, 2011
Yes, they played Get Back twice. The second time was to tell the police to gtfo.
