biffbampow 22nd May 2015		And what we have here is just the tip of the iceberg. There's something like 90 plus hours of raw soundtrack audio recordings in existence captured on Nagra tapes whenever the cameras were rolling so they could then by synched up with the vision at editing stage. Then they were also using multi camera set ups simultaneously at some points like the concert and the in studio performance they did the following day for the slower piano based numbers, I recall an interview around the time of Anthology and I think it was Bob Smeaton who said there was just endless piles of film cans and a lot of it had never even been processed or touched since the day they were filmed. It was indeed rumoured to be getting a DVD release in around 2002 and work had been done on digital remastering and director Michael Lindsay Hogg was hopeful it was finally gonna happen. It didn't. Instead we got the "Let It Be Naked" album. Outtake footage had been kicking around since VHS days but I think it was round then a new DVD or two appeared with more stuff never seen before like the strange bit where Peter Sellers pops in... Sellers couldn't understand why they were being constantly filmed when they were doing nothing. One major problem is only the Apple Studios stuff was recorded on multitrack tape (around 30 hours worth) - all the Twickenham stuff was mixed down on the fly in mono so none of that material could be mixed into stereo or 5.1. Apple could put out something amazing from all the stuff they have but... they can't even be bothered to put out a simple greatest hits DVD with all their promos fully remastered and in complete form... and recently I've read that outtakes have started to surface from some of those! Apple are sat on a goldmine but will they ever do anything useful? Sure the Magical Mystery Tour release 3 years back was great and a welcome release finally unearthing outtakes and unseen material so why they don't just pull their fingers out and deal with "Let It Be" and the promos is something that frustrates most Beatles fans. Naturally, bootleggers have filled the void and it's no surprise why they remain so popular and in demand. Not that Apple ever take a hint and start making some money for themselves.



henry29 22nd May 2015		I Just Got the Let It Be Movie out and this It Is the rehearsal's and making of the Album. Plus all the Arguments Everything. Then the Entire end of the Film Is the Rooftop Concert In Full. Maybe It was a Concept for a Planed DVD release that never happened. It Is 8 Years old now. H.



henry29 22nd May 2015		There Is a Rooftop Concert Video Complete. Just had a look and there Is also a DVD 5.1 re-master of Let It Be the Movie. H.



biffbampow 22nd May 2015		Apple won't release it because the two surviving Beatles keep wanting to delude the world into believing the Beatles never fought or fell out and were full of "peace and love" - "Let It Be" showed and proved that they were not getting along too great by then and Ringo and Paul remain in denial and don't want us to see that side of the band. The actual "Let It Be" movie is a mess... the soundtrack doesn't match the visuals in places and it is depressing to watch, but it is honest in that it's clear they're not really interested any more and Paul is constantly trying to stop the ship from sinking. Apple have hours and hours of unseen footage from which they could create something very interesting but I fear as long as Paul and Ringo remain with us, that ain't ever gonna happen. The highlight of the film is the rooftop gig... all of a sudden, The Beatles come to life and some of that old magic surfaces. Why the Hell Apple have never bothered to do a DVD of just that performance eludes me... Neil Aspinall even mentioned that as a possibility when they finished the Anthology and asked about future plans. Sure, they played some songs more than once but it would be wonderful to see the entire performance restored, remastered and presented in it's entirety since it's a major moment in their history and nothing to be at all ashamed of. I absolutely LOVE that version of "Get Back" they used on "Anthology 3" - the final track from that gig... sure, the guitars cut out and there's temporary confusion but the whole spirit and vibe of it as they carry on and see the song to the end is pure Beatles magic.



TopPopper 22nd May 2015		Very nice. Why don't Apple release stuff like this?? (Even the Let It Be movie would be better than nothing!)
