Peter Jackson talks about Get Back and Audio Tools!

"They shall not grow old" indeed, this never gets old!

They could milk this further and make a video album synching each of the Glyn Johns mixes they've just put out to the genuine performance footage for the tracks: it would be interesting to know if there's enough relevant footage to do the job without resorting to creative editing...!!!

Thanks! There's the info I was wondering about:

"A. When I watched it, they had already done a transfer, so I was watching it on a video system on the TV. But when we started working on it, we got them to scan the original negative in London in 4K – do a high-resolution scan of it. Then that was sent to New Zealand over the Internet."

Yeah, here's the link to the 4K scans:

So then the question is did all the footage and sound get restored after that or just what was needed for his edit and special features?

I would think they'd only restore the parts they're going to use.

Mind you, scanned from the original negatives it would look pretty damned sensational without any cleanup. The only sad thing is they're going to crop everything for widescreen. Kind of like one step froward and two steps back. It should be left in its original aspect.

I’m sure this has been raised already…but it appears that the rooftop is in the original aspect and not reformatted

I wonder why that would be..? I'm not technically minded or an expert in aspect ratios, but it would seem very odd to mess around with the frame size assuming the original reels were all shot in the same ratio...

The big scoop from the Australian version of 60 Minutes was....
Peter Jackson blames Allen Klein 100% for breaking up The Beatles (and Yoko Ono is entirely blameless).
