Beatles - Ready Steady Go / Around the Beatles 8mm (COMPLETE)

[MarkRJones1970]

Making a new thread for this to put the fully compiled and finished footage in one place. I've patched in any missing footage, put things in order from the dozens of Getty clips, and synced as much as I possibly could. If there are still any errors, please let me know and I will fix them!

HI AdamBound. Fabulous job!!! Is there a way to download these from this page? Or am I missing something obvious?

In the Around The Beatles clip, at around 1:10 it appears to me the boys could be singing This Boy, not Can't Buy Me Love: Ringo is clearly on hi-hats alone, and Paul and George are sharing a harmony... Could that be?

I considered that but they never did This Boy on Around the Beatles, its more possible that Ringo just isn’t trying to mime perfectly. Also, it’s far too fast for it to be This Boy

Yes Ringo has a face like he's doing something funny the vocals don't match the lipsync though, or do they?
Being the rehearsals, who knows what really happened!

It brings to my mind the jam session they did in the midst of the Hey Bulldog session, when Paul got on drums and John on guitar and they started jamming away... Being a drummer I can more or less reconstruct the drum beats, but I'd pay gold to hear the other instruments!

Not sure what was posted earlier, but here is the remaster of the medley from Lord Reith. - hxxps://we.tl/t-09slsVwag5

Also could the short clip with Helen Shapiro, 'Look Who It Is' be replaced with the TV version?

I remember there was someone here who was very good at removing translucent watermarks, I hope they are still here and can have a go at these.

Thank you for this, by the way. I can't believe I forgot about this, as I actually own a copy of "Not For Sale" and listened to it many times! I will patch this in.

Looks as though Getty was the winning bidder?

From Living in the Material Word there is a bit more 8mm in colour ( 20-03-196) , is it from the same 'source' or was there a second camera?
