"The project marks the first time Apple Corps Ltd and The Beatles – Paul, Ringo, and the families of Lennon and Harrison – have granted full life story and music rights for a scripted film."

Thanks for this
Together for just ten years yet their legacy endures as the greatest in popular music
In reality, nothing or nobody comes close to
Four class who changed the world
We can only be grateful
Thanks LR again

Apparently four films each one highlighting an individual band member. I'm really looking forward to them, the band and as individuals are interwoven with my entire life. I never saw the band live but have seen McCartney which was very nostalgic and emotional. So many memories of life's highs and lows listening to their music. The Beatles like the Stones will never be surpassed in my opinion.

Reason is the quality of the Melodies and the still incredible craft of George Martin and their innovation as a band
World changed for many when Love Me Do came out
Used to listen to it on booths on Lewis Lewis

I’ve been lucky enough to see Paul 3 times. First time in ‘93 and last time in 2010. Emotional for me as like with so many people, I grew up hearing his & Beatles music, even though I was born not long after they broke up.
They were a game changer in so many different ways, especially their recording techniques, which were groundbreaking at the time, & as already mentioned on here, George Martin I think was a musical genius.
Still hard to believe how much The Beatles changed musically and visually in just 8 years after they signed with Martin & Parlophone, & their legacy just lives on.
This should be a great watch

Has to be one of the most unimaginative compilation of humans ever witnessed by the worlds musical population.

Just an opinion of course.

I've not seen unimaginative levelled at the Beatles
Their music endured because they were nothing but imaginative
Contrast this the Stones whose first two albums were nothing but Chuck Berry thinly disguised
Sgt Pepper is the evidence . When it came out, we were dumbfounded
Brian Wilson used it as inspiration for Pet Sounds , another all time classic
Imagine a string quartet used as rhythm section
Blackbird Is a song requiring dexterity and musicianship to get it remotely right
A song about a songbird singing at night ending with a recording of its song
It seems you just had to be alive at that time

Wow! Of all the things I’ve read on here over the years, that’s got to be one of the most provocative😂.

Well I've bit first
Bugger off and join the queue
I was going to comment on how I viewed punk rock
However, music was in a real pot at that time . Grim days , so The Stranglers have to be thanked

As regards Blackbird, it's used by professional guitar teachers
I gave up learning it after three hours
And Maccaxsaid he could read music ! If true , then it must have been his imagination as the song still iconic

I think McCartney was more musically trained than he let on.

The guitar in Blackbird is a masterpiece but the way The Beatles changed their direction and invented new genres was nothing less than genius. They had it all.

Contrast that with others who changed with the times such as David Bowie or Queen (both who I respect). Their later work or 80s sh1t as I call it was nothing more than a betrayal to their roots.

Punk by the way is still a favourite of mine. Simple musically but exudes massive amounts of energy.

I thought Pet Sounds was released a year before Sgt Pepper's. It was Rubber Soul that influenced Brian Wilson to write Pet Sounds.

Wasn’t fussed on the Beatles, liked Abbey Road and that’s about it.

I stand corrected
It would have been Rubber Soul
There were eight months apart
I had both
Wilson did however reference Sgt Peppers very often as a work he'd have wished he. Had written

Abbey Road was very patchy

Maxwell silver hammer one of their worst tracks IMO
White Album I thought very self indulgent

The Rolling Stones equally as vulgar.

Thank god for these bands though, it woke up people they were being had 😂

The Beatles were a bit before my time growing up , my old man on his gramaphone had the likes of Jim Reeves , Engelburt and Johnny Cash on the vinyl turntable .

Walk the Line was brilliant , file alongside Bohemian Rhapsody and Rocketman , some sympathetic and vague dialogue but a must watch .

Bring The Beatles back to life these days on the big screen , I await the outcome.

Stones nothing but middle class Giv
They did ok though

Saw a little piano lesson done by Mecca and how he described him
And John simply messing about with notes they found to make chords
I thought pppphickoff Paul . You would have had rudimentary theory put into you by your musical dad
Many Welsh boys like me had piano lessons and hating them but it gave a structure to return to on later life
I didn't play piano for 50 years until Ian mcNabb got me back into it
I'm decent enough now and internet has a myriad of genres to get into

Btw, Dave Greenfield was brilliant
