Beatles on the Roof

[Paruwi]

It was 46 years ago today, January 30, 1969, that The Beatles held their last public concert on the rooftop of Apple Records, the London headquarters of their record label, film company, and recording studio.

In 1969, The Beatles were tired; tired of being Beatles, tired of each other, and tired of all the fuss that had made their lives a constant struggle for peace and quiet--and at times survival--since late 1963. By 1969, they were still on top of the pop charts, but they had little freedom to enjoy it.

The last time I was in London, my friends and I made the trek over to Abbey Road Studios. I didn't know what to expect and felt like a total dweeb doing it, but when we arrived the block was filled with like minded Beatles fans of all ages. We were all walking across that famous crossing and writing our names and messages on the studio fence. It was quite an experience and I'm glad I did it.

Did they ever play on a Roof-Top ?

 

[MarkB]

Perhaps not but I suspect they played high quite often!
