  • Happy 55th anniversary to this historic concert, the last ticketed show of The Beatles’ career!
    I’ve taken every source that is publicly available, synced it to real audio from the show, and assembled it together, creating 13 minutes of the whole show. There is one film, from Barry Hood, which I have been forced to remove as he copyright strikes those who do post it. Including his film it would bring the total to 15 minutes. If you want a link to the reconstruction including it, let me know.
    Thank you PFRG/Nick for restoring and stabilizing two of the films! His channel is here: / thepfrg

She still has the stub along with all her Beatle stuff from when she was obsessed with them. I think it was a whole $6 to see this show back then!

    A short 14 years later, we lost John. 21 Years later, George would be lost to cancer.

    This show really gives you a glimpse of part of why they quit touring, and moreover why they probably wouldn't have if technology was better in their time. If they had a strong enough amplification system that could blast through the crowd screams like rock concerts have had now since the early 1970s, everyone would have heard them no matter how loud they screamed. If they had each had their own on-stage feedback monitors they'd have been able to clearly hear each other, which would have enabled them to perform even better and really enjoy it again.
    But they had none of that. While they still sounded pretty good, they were stressing themselves to do that more by note/beat memory than by simply playing the music. They couldn't relax and have fun. It was a tense 20-30 minutes every time they took the stage by 1966. Ringo couldn't go off the downbeat and had to keep it simple so the others could feel it on the stage floor. He watched John's ass bounce and Paul's head shake to know where they were in the song. Seriously. George was playing straight off memory - they knew what their set list was going to be so when they got into the 4th song all he could do was watch the others count in with their toe taps and play what he knew to be the riff of the 4th song in watching Paul and John's feet.
    Candlestick was the straw that broke the camel's back. In 1965 they had a guy driving them to and from the stage at Shea Stadium in a '65 Oldsmobile Starfire station wagon. A regular car anyone could buy at their local Olds dealer at the time. By the time they got here to Candlestick in 1966, they needed a Brinks armored security truck.
    Paul still wanted to keep touring at this point, when the other three had gotten fed up with it by this time. But after riding in that truck you see he finally had it too. Paul referred to that Brinks truck that took them out on that field as a "chrome meat wagon"...... it was a truck designed for transporting cash securely to/from banks. Inside there's no seats, why would there be? The 4 of them were on the floor sliding around. He literally told the others, inside that truck, after this show, as you see it driving off the field, "you're right, this is nuts. I'm with you now, we're done touring"

      @frodobaggins7252 2 года назад +45

      The management should never have agreed to large outdoor shows with the equipment available in 1966. Other than the money made, it really was a waste of everybody's time. Other bands like the Rolling Stones came to the conclusion that the Beatles weren't as tight when playing live as they truly were based on these shows. In reality, the Beatles were an incredibly tight band when playing live, but had to make all kinds of sacrifices due the reasons you've outlined.
      It's unfortunate because, not playing live and touring was a big factor in their breakup. Not spending that time together led them in different directions and caused them to become far more self involved. John and Paul both came to the conclusion that they had come to the end of the band's viability due to the lack of material at the end, but that only stemmed from not being forced to spend day after day in close quarters bouncing ideas off each other. With no one but themselves to bounce ideas off of, it all got to the point where they had to create entire songs without the input of the other, and by the time the other had the chance to add any insight, the one who wrote the song had already become overly possessive of it. When you are writing a song everything is still quite up in the air, once it's written the feeling of ownership is much stronger.
      This has become an age old story of the demise of many of the greatest and highest earning bands. In the 70's you pretty much knew a bands days were numbered once you started seeing them arriving at shows in separate limo's.
      The old saying is "absence makes the heart grow fonder", but that couldn't be further from the truth when it comes to bands.

      They do have monitors at this show. You can clearly see three, one at each end of the stage and one on the ground tilted up at the center of the stage. The PA system does seem a bit lackluster though, even if the crowd wasn’t screaming I’m not sure it would have been large enough. but it’s still more than the announcer PAs they are claimed to have used.
      Aside from all that, the Beatles were quickly getting into material that couldn’t be recreated on stage by four people in the 60s, so along with all the other hassles it was the right time to stop.

I was one of those teenaged girls in the concerts, and I was neither frustrated nor hoping to marry one of the Beatles. The music was everything. I was 11 in 1964 and that music came from out of nowhere, and it was nothing like what I'd ever heard before. We were having FUN, and there was nothing "sick" about it.

We were very tight but there was this one club that was rather prestigious however on stage even with fold-back speakers we could not hear our instruments at all.

    I was eight years old and living in Fremont, California when The Beatles performed at Candlestick Park. It's only about a 40 minute drive. My older sister Brenda offered to take me but I refused. I enjoyed listening to The Beatles on the radio but I wasn't about to put myself in middle of 40,000 screaming teenage girls. Hellll no lol. My sister enjoyed herself, but she said the sound system was pretty bad. Somehow they hooked the output of The Beatles microphones and instruments into the P.A. system and it caused an almost a two second delay between what you saw and what you heard.
    Seven months later my sister and I watched the Strawberry Fields/Penny Lane videos on television. We had opposite reactions. She hated it. She didn't like the mustaches, the clothes or their new sound. I thought the videos and music were spectacularly cool. I was singing those songs in the shower for days.

    That was really a moment in history. Beatlemania is witnessed reaching maximum level. It's highly unlikely anything like this will ever happen again - a rock band causing thousands of girls to weep and scream uncontrollably? It was a combination of their awesome riffs and their looks that caused this. Then they just walked away from performing live at the highest level ever seen. After that immediately evolved even further as culture icons, writing and recording even more amazing music, and reaching number one over and over and over without even touring to promote themselves like most bands must do. Too cool.

      I agree with this. One of the things I liked about The Beatles was the fact that each single they released sounded different than the one before it. I think it was their ability to evolve and write even better and more complex material that afforded them the "luxury" of not having to tour and promote themselves. I remember hearing John Lennon say "I don't want to be still be singing 'She Loves You' at 60"

    All the shows at the Cavern Club and in Hamburg made them a super tight band, even though they couldn't hear each other, the vocals and harmonies were spot on for a show like this. They weren't singing, they were screaming to be heard. Total professionals, they had no idea what was to come when they walked into EMI studios for their first recording session. Love them or not, they changed the world. I remember my Mom buying me a Beatles pin from our tiny hole in the wall store in our neighborhood when I was 5 years old. Everyone knew who The Beatles were!

The Beatles were no longer a "band" and split about 3 years later. At this point Sept '66 they were tired of playing to kids when they and their music was evolving. Plus they couldn't replicate the new songs Live - Revolver was out and they played NO songs from it. We boomers were so lucky to witness before during and after the whole 60s in real time. ☮

    The starkness and isolation of the stage, the biggest band in the history of the world being sent off in the barest of circumstances. That there was no pomp and ceremony, no farewell, just made it more cooler. Only the Beatles would shut the door on Beatlemania like this. There should have been 50 cameras, the best 1966 live recording system, instead we get a tape recorder (requested by Paul cause he knew this was it) and some home video. Super effort AdamBound.

My buddy and I stayed until 2 AM or so ... no one wanted to go home. Total chaos and scary as things went wonky as they left. John and Ringo's limo had to retreat back into the stadium from the crowds outside. They had to run and hide somewhere in the stadium. I can very much see why they called the touring quits and it worked out much better for all of us.
