[4K SCAN] The Beatles - Live at Candlestick Park, San Francisco (August 29th, 1966) [8mm Film]

An absolutely MASSIVE thank you to Joe Silvestri, who was kind enough to allow his father's 8mm home movie to get professionally rescanned into 4K!
I am proud to unveil this brand new professional transfer of one of the best films shot at Candlestick Park on August 29th, 1966. Although Joe posted an original scan of this film in 2018, and numerous attempts were made to clean up the picture, this has been freshly retransferred from the original film reel. I am very happy to have made this happen, as this is very historically significant footage!
I have made sure to sync this footage to the Tony Barrow tape recording made of this show. I have ensured the audio matches as well as possible with the video, which was mostly simple as Joe’s father captured some very long shots. For the introductory walk-on, I have used the available real audio from a recently surfaced newsreel, as well as audio from both Memphis recordings (as the Barrow tape does not capture this moment). For the last second of Long Tall Sally, I have used the audio from Maple Leaf Gardens.
A major thanks to Nicki Coyle at the Negative Space for her excellent work in scanning the film, who’s state-of-the-art equipment allowed for this to receive the best quality scan possible.
Lastly, a huge thanks to Nuff ‪@ThePFRG‬ for color correcting this footage, and truly bringing it to life!

If only they had Marshall Amps

Love George's groovy lead fills towards the end of Rock & Roll Music. He probably thought "it's the last time I'll ever have to play this one, might as well have fun with it"

Security was tight at every stairwell, so when two drunk guys said they'd catch us, my friend Kathy and I jumped off the top deck and made it onto the field, but I've never seen footage of her or me out there. Wish I could remember which song they were singing. I was hauled away by 4 security guards, one on each limb. 🤣

That was a 2 for the price of 1 ticket: a Beatles concert and a tackle football game in the outfield. How crazy that was for them. 😮

No wonder they stopped touring..it's insanity there.

Amazing quality! This concert must be the most filmed concert of the tour. So many fans and news stations filming it.

[@bercremasters]

Maple Leaf, Floral Hall and now this.. great year! Good job!

[@jorgelaporta1998]

I can't wait to see this film.

[@ThePFRG]

Glad to have helped with this one again! The new scan is beautiful. Nicki Coyle always does the best job in the business without a doubt. This only cost $20 for the scan!

[@CartersRemasters]

looks great! pretty green grass!

[@JohnLennonReturns]

Thanks for cleaning this one up. People who shot these Super 8 movies back then must have been too exited to realize that what they were filming had to make MUSICAL SENSE. Instead they filmed half a verse here and then half a chorus there, then they might skip the bridge... then film a few more words, and then on to the next song. Some 58 years later those people must be kicking themselves up the bum for not properly filming HISTORY. If they would have only focused on filming ONE [1] song they would have had something usable; the 3.5 min. film cartridge would have gotten it all.

Incredible! Look at all those kids getting on the field?

[@riotwilliams5321]

[@janaparoubkova5895]

Perfektní ❤ Ti fanoušci byli pěkně divocí 😅 Já se pak klukům vůbec nedivím, že radši skončili s koncertováním, měli toho už plné zuby,k naší velké škodě,ale chápu je ✌️
