Part 2 was epic. Really entertaining and a great set-up for part 3.

Ha! :lol: You'd have to be brave to let a film crew shoot you for hours on end day after day. At least they didn't scratch their bums... that I know of.

The Billy Preston entrance and playing is just staggering. They all go up in performance and sound amazing

That was GREAT

Was that all new India footage?

McCartney's face when they say "go up on the roof" 🤣

I can't wait for part 3

Looks like they were drinking J&B Scotch and cokes. Did Billy Preston just drop by to see the Beatles, or had George told him he should stop by?

I enjoyed this episode a lot more, I've always preferred watching the Apple bootlegs to Twinkenham. The syncing errors are still there, but they were less distracting this time. I do wish they showed more of George though, we get numerous takes of Dig a Pony, Get Back, Don't Let Me Down, yet only two takes of For You Blue.

Patti wrote in her autobiography that George was sleeping with a French woman in their own home, and that she (Patti) finally confronted him over it.

Hats Off to Peter Jackson

One hell of a patient man trawling through all of the footage.
TBH Its surprised me how detailed and open everybody is.
Theres a lot of stuff I knew butnnot the right timescale.
This has certainly opened my eyes and its ended up a great piece of Beatles history.

Well done Pete
