Following rehearsals on the previous day, The Beatles recorded an appearance for a British edition of US music TV show Shindig! at the Granville Studio in London.
The performance was watched by London residents of the Beatles Fan Club. The Beatles performed three songs live: ‘Kansas City/Hey-Hey-Hey-Hey!’, ‘I’m A Loser’, and ‘Boys’.

You can tell that they are pantomiming the instrumentals as follows : (yes I understand that the Beatles prerecorded them ) look at the Harrison guitar solo during "Boys" - listen to the last five notes which resembles a descending pentatonic scale. His fingers are not moving from the chord form at all.
I used to watch Shindig back then. A lot of the bands either pantomimed the whole performance or like the Beatles did live vocals over prerecorded music. Thanks for putting this together. This is excellent. I was 11 again!
uh huh
Still, pretty cool stuff - makes you feel good.
I believe they did play live this time.Watching the drumming..it is in sync.
When you find a Beatles performance you haven't seen... Heaven
& u can actually hear them play; 7th Heaven 👌🏻
@@ROBYNMARKOW Yep! and they Sound Even Better or as Good as The Record !!! 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍🤏
Amen
Yeah, the Beatles are living proof that there is a higher power (God). If you think about all the events that had to line up perfectly for this phenomenon to happen. What if Paul never went to the village fete in 1957 and didn’t meet John. What if that kid didn’t go into Brian Epstein‘s record store and ask for a copy of my Bonnie. So many things had to happen… Must’ve been divine intervention. For the two best songwriters in the 20th century who also had perfect voices to sing with each other in the same band, rising up from the streets of Liverpool to change the world!! Insane! And then… We got to watch them evolve from the lovable mop tops (yeah, yeah yeah) to serious composers. And then the cherry on top… Along came, George Harrison! I received the Beatles 65 album in the United States When I was seven years old, it had I’m a loser on it and even my mother noticed. Wow these guys are really good. I was six years old when the Beatles exploded into the United States. I can still sit and watch videos like this all day long. The Beatles are a gift that keeps on giving.
Yes! What a gift!
No flashing lights, no fog, no lazers, no dancers, no pyrotechnics...just FAB!
👍👍👍
No auto tune
I remember shindig. Great era for tv shows. The world was much simpler & liveable back then. At 69 yrs old, I consider myself blessed to have grown up in this era
Oh brother 🙄
As do I. If one wasn't there, those days cannot adequately be appreciated.
Agree. At 63 I'm a bit younger and the Fab Four are the only reason I wish I had 3:07 been a bit older...
George's guitar playing was so smooth and effortless.
"The entertainment phenomenon of the century." He sure got that right.
Absolutely--amazing too that people were saying this only a couple of years into their fame--they were just getting started creatively.
Well, I think that was Elvis actually. But the Beatles are good.
Mj or elvis
@@Airtouch67 No it wasn’t! Don’t get me wrong, I like Elvis but nobody was bigger than The Beatles. The hysteria that they caused was unmatched by anyone. They have the highest record sales of anyone in history. Plus, they were great songwriters.
@@Airtouch67Elvis was great, a phenomenon himself and influenced the Beatles. But playing all their own instruments and composing hit after hit no one had done it before, or since. Charisma also helped too.
I’m a Beatle fan. I’m 69 yrs old. Enjoying their music until now and forever!😮u
Yep. It's very cool to experience their music.
The smile on John's face when George starts his solo is priceless.
John said something to George when he began his guitar solo.
And I love the little dance George does while he plays!🤗
Yeah smiling because George wasn't keeping up with the backing track ..this performance was mimed
Interesting to me is how much it appears they're enjoying themselves. John and Paul had charismatic personalities and exude confidence which I think the audience liked.
I think it's a combination of them being at their peak but also having pre-recorded the instruments already and some of the vocals. Before I read the pinned note I was trying to work out why my eyes and ears were... playing tricks. I could hear that some of the vocals (the little inflections and quips etc) were clearly live but there was something not right, not 'sync'd' about the instruments. I was beginning to think that this soundtrack was edited together from other sound sources onto the visual performance. But the pinned note explains that they'd recorded the instruments for each of the songs (and the vocals on Kansas City) beforehand. And that suddenly explained why George's solos didn't quite match his fingering (being a guitarist I noticed some some things he just couldn't be doing for real)... So imagine them recording the songs the day before and having a blast due to the lack of pressure - and then performing 'over' those backing tracks at the broadcasting of the show. Now they're not under pressure so they've got time to goof a bit. My favourite part on this video is Paul's smile as he watches John before coming in to harmonise on 'I'm A Loser'. A special moment - around 4:40
They exuded that confidence because the audience loved them!!
I think the Beatles are literally the only band where every member is capable of credibly taking the lead for a song. Absolutely phenomenal level of talent that gets more impressive every day.
E improbable cada día que pasa.
What a fantastic observation! Thanks for that. So true, they all rocked at their singing.
That is something Keith Richards mentioned. The Beatles had four singers (though I am not sure I would put Ringo in the league of a lead singer), while, as Richards said, the Rolling Stones just had one.
@@ericdailey8587 Yes, I read that Keith interview somewhere too. I would say Keith and Ringo are about the same in terms of being lead vocalists. They can sing but 1-2 songs per album max is good.
Stick The Beach Boys on that list.
They are always much better than we think they were. This is another example. Pure joy and energy!
If you can hear them over the Screaming
all dubbed
Uh, I don’t think anyone who knows music considers them less than the greatest group ever.
@@erepsekahsYou clearly have never heard them do their live performances on the BBC. They sound just like their records. Don’t stir a pot you have no knowledge of. You must be a Stones fan.
he’s right watch John’s harmonica it’s obvious it’s playing without him George’s guitar solos don’t fit either believe singing is live..I don’t like the Stones either. @@hrussell9677
I’m always impressed by the vocals and that they didn’t have any monitors, they just sang perfect harmonies. Those all-nighters in Hamburg paid off!
"10,000 hours" of practice makes perfect!
This was not a live performance.
@@georgebliss5134 They sang live over a pre-recorded instrumental tape. You could hear doubling on the harmonica (played into the live vocal mic), and also a few vocal harmonies didn't exactly match who visibly sang.
@@georgebliss5134 the vocals are definitely live, idk about the instrumentals
Look at the end where Ringo is supposedly hitting the ride cymbal, he's not even touching it!!! Also, look at George playing the lead, he smirks when he does it totally different than the recording. @@Channel10-he2se
And to think that Macca and Ringo are still playing live shows just amazes me! I’m glad they’re still with us and playing Beatles songs live. They’ve made millions of people happy over the years. God knows we need that especially now in these dark times. Thanks!
Absolutely true ❤
Yeah they really do help they should release one single a month for radio station along with some new movie it doesn’t have to be a Beatles movie . I’m saying this because of Buelars day off the song twist and shout went back up on the charts . Many of the good songs on the Albums were not put out as singles and now with the perfection in mix down like the new red album just blows me away. You can turn it up all the way. I was born on 12/31/63. And my baby ears loved it , they became my favorite quickly I didn’t know how popular and famous they were I was just a little kid what did I know 😊 I just loved them best music ever
No dark times unless Traitor Trump steals another election!
That was crazy to see Ringo sing...liveeee!
It is great. I like Paul’s stories on their recording sessions and the stories behind the songs
I walked past Strawberry Fields every morning on my way up Beaconsfield Road to my school, SFX in Woolton, Liverpool, a short distance from John’s home on Menlove Avenue - 1969 to 1977. Got to play at The Cavern twice with my own band years later. One degree of separation from these giants - still feel hugely privileged to have been born in the same City. They are without peers.
I thought Strawberry Fields was in Central Park?
@@charlescochran9077 Original was a children’s home near John’s home in Liverpool.
Wow ! Lucky you !
Very cool. I visited Liverpool years ago and absolutely loved it! I even had a pint at the Ye Cracke pub on Rice St. It's where John and Stu used to hang out during their college years. John would take Cynthia there too. The Liverpudlian people were first rate. If I ever get to England again, I'm Liverpool bound. 👍
@@andrewkelly5146Yes. And I'm eternally grateful for having visited both 'Strawberry Field(s). 🍓
1964...I was 13 yearsold - and I love them still today...😇
I didn't even exist in 1964! I've never known a time when I didn't love The Beatles. You can blame my dad for that 😀
I was 8. Born and bred in Liverpool under the influence of the Beatles' music.❤❤❤
I was 13 too - in 1964 the only thing that made life worth living was the Beatles .
Hallo Beatles Freunde in der Welt. Ich war 1964 ebenfals 13 Jahre alt und bin bis heute einer der größten Beatles Fans, RonaldS 7:37
❤❤❤❤❤❤
The Beatles made life such a joy for Boomers in the 60's and 70's!🎉
I am 69 years of age, was a Beatle fan from the beginning in ' 64, they still knock me out!
The ridiculously high expectations from them; and they always exceeded.
You know, these guys sound pretty good! They have potential!
Yes! They should keep practicing
Nah. They’ll never make it
Not bad for a couple of lads from Liverpool.
You think?
Time will tell. Time will tell.
I watched this Shindig. I was 12. Still sounds phenomenal.
I watched it too.
@@chicklets4ever51"I'm a loser" was a departure from their early sound.
Me too, I was also 12!
@@jeffreykaufmann2867agreed. But “No Reply” and “I’ll Follow The Sun” were as well. *Beatles For Sale* was a lot of covers but the original songs were moving away from the Mersey sound of their earlier efforts.
@attentiondeficitsquirrel7660 "No Reply" blew me away the first time I heard it 40 years ago on the Beatles 65 Album. Great Vocal Harmonies.
As a Beatle fan in Australia for 58 years I thought I had seen it all. Now in 2023 I have walked the Abbey Road crosswalk and seen the Abbey Road studios, and before year ends, seen this footage which I have never viewed before. Thanks for posting it to You Tube and to all who colored the film. Really fantastic. I am now 66 years old and The Beatles have been with me throughout all phases of my life. Of course I liked other bands and later styles of music over the last 6 decades, but still today, nothing is played by me more than The Beatles.
64 and right there with you. When I hear a Beatles song I crank it up and sing along every word every time.
Also 66. I understand completely
In my eigth decade now. The Beatles made my life so much better from the 60s onwards. Ringo and Paul are still doing this in their 80s. They must love doing it. Saw Paul M in 2017. He has the best Beatles tribute band ever. The show was superb. Oh, and as a slaphead, I have to know how they have such hair... it's not fair is it? Act of the century? I think he means millennium! 🙂🇬🇧👍
Same here!
Standing there in front of the studio, thinking of all the music made inside, it is hard to imagine, isn't it? I was there, like you, amazed to be seeing where it all happened.
What a great performance. Imagine these 4 guys showing up on SNL one night and doing this!
Wow I was just thinking the same thing. They haven't had entertainment this great in ages.
The offer was $100.00.
John and Paul almost did but Yoko talked John out of it.
@@RONALDB62 No, they couldn't get George to show up, he was out of country and unavailable.. They all did express that they would have done it. George liked doing the show and tried to get John to do it at one point. It makes sense too because it would be more of a "joke", basically a skit than an actual reunion. "Where's our $3000 dollars!?"
They one better - on the roof of Apple Studios.
OMG ❤❤❤❤❤ There will never ever be another group like the Beatles ❤❤❤ Magic.
There is no way you can beat them the greatest.....4 EVER
I agree 100%......Jack !
John's got such a great voice.
He sounds magnificent! 👍
It's actually Paul singing 🤔😜
@@shaneraven2621Watch the whole video before commenting.
Paul is better. He can get 5 octaves
@@stevemorris6790I don't care about octaves. Johns voice was amazing.
Don’t tell me there is no such thing as a Time Machine, whenever I see the lads I am transported back to the 60’s. Great video I have never seen before.
Theres nowhere You can be that it isnt where You are meant to be bro
That colourization looks totally authentic....great job✌️
Yeah, Yeah,Yeah!!
I do agree the color enhancing is great.
The colorization looks good for sure . Their instrument miming is off . 1:30 Johns done with his harmonica part yet we still hear it . And were hearing Ringos ride cymbal on Boys , but it doesnt move .
@@js4187 yes I thought that but in other ways it sounds totally live.Not sure what's going on.Perhaps somebody else layed those particular parts through the desk as they were unpayable live...who knows
@@randybackgammon890 It's them playing but it's pre-recorded from the rehearsal and they're "miming" to it. The vocals are live though.
Whoever cleaned up the sound on this is a hero. Great job.......
The instrumental part of this recording was made in a studio on a previous day, and they sang live to those tracks. So the sound didn't need cleaning up.
On the the end, ringo fake hitting the cymbal so not picked up in vocal mic
@@lesizmor9079 I think Ringo at least is playing drums live, the sound bleeds into te vocal microphone.
There are no amps ringo is not playing live
John and Paul were m want to be together. I love watching them perform together. I firmly believe even though they disbanded deep down John still had deep feelings for Paul.
The only band that could play any type of music. Simply the best of all time.
They skipped Opera and flamenco.
@@newnoggin2 you know what I mean!
'Mr. Moonlight' is kinda like opera, and 'Besa Mey Mucho' is kinda like flamenco. Kinda.@@newnoggin2
Gangsta rap
@@lucasoheyze4597I am the Walrus… kinda 😂
I'm stunned. I saw this when I was thirteen. I have remembered it all these years. What an unexpected gift. I am grateful beyond words. Thank you so much.❤
The backing vocals on BOYS is astounding!!! maybe because George is higher in the mix than usual and his part is hitting a very sweet spot frequency-wise. So good.
good point, mixed well.
I'm reasonably sure they sound so full due to being doubled, that is in addition to them being sung live they are also part of the pre recorded track that they're miming to. This is more obvious on Kansas City, the "Bye Bye" backing vocals for that are clearly part of the pre recorded track since they are in 3 part harmony.
Wow Paul was really on top form in this performance! His vocals were stellar.
Yes, and you can tell he was having so much fun! Top form on his bass, too.
@@Soapandwater6he’s always looks so happy i can’t help but feel better
Met them in April 1964, never forget. Great guys, loved the concerts, made friends everywhere, they gave us everything. 😂❤
Because of the later studio stuff, where they were such remarkable innovators, it's east to forget they were such a truly great live band! They certainly knew how to rock the joint!
They aren't playing live, it's prerecorded.
Very rare to see them doing I’m A Loser live. They sound incredible!!!
One of Lennon’s early gems.
It should’ve been a single after “ I feel fine”
This looks live and color is legit looking. Best recorded performance I've seen many years. I remember seeing this as a tiny kid, on my old RCA vacuum tube tv. my dad said, "Look at those kids' hair!'
At 4:17 the harmonica is playing and John's lips aren't on it. I don't think there were 2 harmonicas!
@AndrewBarbacki They had a back up track, like they did several years later on All You Need Is Love, but they were actually playing live. They sounded great.
Ringo pretends to hit the cymbals, only occasionally making a contact - likely, by accident, and in the end. It is very obvious in the last song. It looks like the vocals are live, but most of the sound track is pre-recorded.
Have you seen this? Filmed in hi-def video in 1967. copypasta Beatles - "Hello, Goodbye" Enjoy! 153 _million_ views.
? Watch George Harrison's atrocious Guitar solo during "Boys". He is not playing!
My parents wouldn't let this lad of ten watch this back then. I'm older now. It truly is amazing seeing this for the first time. Wonderful. 🎉😊🙏❤
My parents loved them
I didn’t know I needed this, but apparently I really did. I haven’t seen this since it originally aired, I was only 4 at the time. I love ❤️ seeing how much fun they’re having. It’s amazing how much happiness these 4 guys have brought into my life. The music, the vocals, the antics, the films 🎥 & images, the smiles they gave throughout my whole life. Here I am again at 64 smiling 😊 & crying 😭 at the same time. Paul was so right when he wrote, “And in the end The love you take Is equal to the love you make”
I'm glad you enjoyed it💙
I feel the same, si much joy over 5 decades!
Man - this must be the shock of the century for you!
Smiling crying and laughing and screaming at the same time. It’s just magic what these Boys do…😍🥰😳😂🥹❤️🔥🎶
Never seen on video before, Ringo singing live with the Fabs in the early sixties. Totally brilliant, including brilliant vocals from Paul and John.
There’s loads of early footage of ringo singing live with the Beatles…
Yeah, Ringo and George always got their one song. Not fair, but you couldn't beat John and Paul back then.
George’s solo on "Boys" is the highlight. Awesome double restoration of sound and video!
All faked. Dubbed.
He actually looked embarrassed by how badly he was faking that solo. It was cute but makes you wonder how he played it in the first place.
At the end of George's solo, his fingers don't match the notes, also Ringo's ride cymbal is not moving when he hits it. Something is not right.
It’s the pure magic of The Beatles! They’re like no other!
Only 2 things could make me shake with anticipation as a child. Knowing the Riddler was going to be on Batman and Robin that afternoon when I got home from school. The other was the Beatles on the Ed Sullivan show!
Interesting that you should say that (and you may or may not have already known this), but Frank Gorshin (The Riddler), was actually one of the guests on the Ed Sullivan show the night of February 9th, 1964, the very night that the Beatles made their American Television debut. This was of course a couple of years before Frank began playing the Riddler.
What a great performance! They were the hottest band in the world back then and I can see why! Great vocals and they were in their prime with brilliant original songs plus they were charming! No wonder the girls went nuts! They looked different with their Beatle hairstyles and Boots. They had the It factor! What a great phenomenon they were! And they harmonized well! They were the complete package! They were funny, too! A bit before my time but I’m still a fan because they were amazing and the music is so good! Thanks!
I still remember one of my schoolmates telling me that their hair was not real. They are wearing wigs! Impossible for a rural Indiana boy to believe that a man could have hair longer than an inch. My older brother was constantly being hauled into the principal's office because his hair was touching his ears. Long ago, far away (thankfully).
And if you listen to what kind of shite we were hearing before they came to rescue us. Come Home Speedy Gonzalez? puleeze
@@howardhughes7596 - I remember how radical their hair style was back then and how it infuriated my drunken step-father. He was a musician, a good piano player - when sober, which was only about 15 mins a day, and I am sure he was just jealous of their success.
ESTUVIERON EN SU MEJOR MOMENTO....TODOS LOS AÑOS!!
@@greenbeagle13 My dad thought their hair was disgraceful. How dare they!
If audiences had been this sensible each time they played they might have played concerts longer then what they did. They can hear themselves and the playing is fantastic.
their ability to reach their fans by touring was ruined by the reactions of those very same fans. Shame.
I agree. I never, never, never understood the screaming and crying. Still don't get it. 😒
I saw them in concert -- you could literally not hear a thing. Solid wall of screaming. unreal.
True. It's like Ringo said, "I feel they came to see us, not hear us". The live shows to have seen would've been their Hamburg and Liverpool gigs. Before the mania. And the rooftop concert, of course. But ideally you would want to be on the roof they played on or a nearby roof. 😅
@@daysjours I wish I could of seen them
Ive been watching this video once a day for a while now. Theres something magically nostalgic about it that i cant get enough of. Theres no way these 21 yr olds sounded this good live like im just mindblown. Those vocals from Paul on "Kansas City" are something else man and his stage presence to top it off i could watch this all day
Wow. When they COULD hear themselves play their live performance was premium quality, top notch!! This was great!!!
It was prerecorded and lip synced!
You are correct. @@tonystevenson26
@@tonystevenson26 I don't think so. On Kansas City, Paul flubs the lyrics and the sound matches his lips. But the sound is enhanced in some way. Either they are playing along live to a recording, or there may be other musicians offstage playing along to beef up the sound a bit. George's solos at times don't seem to match what he is playing onstage, and the "bye-bye"s that John and George sing on Kansas City sound like three-part harmony.
I remember the Shindig host , Jimmy O' Neil I think, trying to make it look like they were in the same studio
@billboggs6641 man. , I was like 10 at the time, my sister was a real go go girl....magical 60s indeed !
This is great in every way. All I remember till now was a black and white film of this performance. This one is the actual video with fantastic sound. Every song on here sounds as good as the original album version. Maybe it's me but I felt every time watching the Beatles I was watching real magic.
True - real magic ❤
George was my favorite. Every February 25 I remember… That’s the day and month he was born.
It was a strange feeling being 8 years old in 1965 and seeing The Beatles. Kids riding the school bus and bringing Beatles albums to school. Everybody just generally acted like they were blown away by the Beatles. The reality of it was vast and impressionable. People wanted to be like them..😅 I mean it was kind of strange when I think about it now. When the Beatles began altering their style of writing it really affected people immensely. When people heard Rubber Soul they were shocked for some reason. Everyone around me was accustomed to hearing the earlier songs...then one day people began hearing songs from Beatles For Sale...in America Beatles 65' and acted as if they were thrown off a bit by I'm A Loser and Baby's In Black...but when people heard Rubber Soul they just backed off and couldn't believe what they were hearing. Paperback Writer and Rain were very different and eventually the single Yellow Submarine really confused people. The more Psychedelic and or Progressive Beatles felt as if the band were born again. The times we were living in were strange. It always seemed as if the average person was waiting for the Beatles to do something first....to do something different before anyone else. 😮
An excellent observation and well presented. Spot on with every point. 👍
You were really paying attention back then. I wasn’t even in my teens when Rubber Soul happened, and I too can remember how some people were taken aback, and others were ready to ride that rocket to psychedelia.
I was nine years old in ‘65 so I also grew up with the Beatles. Most of us did wait around waiting for the Beatles to put out something new and to do something first. I didn’t have a problem with all of their transitions, and the different types of music. In fact, everyone that I hung out with embraced it.
Until Abbey Road came into the picture. They suddenly become music gods.
Interesting comments!!
First time I hear/see the live version of "I'm a loser" Awesome 🤩
Glad you enjoyed :D
They did not play it in concert.
Such a great song. I am going back on YT looking at 1956 Elvis -- the batles kinda look tame next to him. He was huge inspiration to the Beatles: Both changed the course of cultural history.
I remember this performance, because they debuted Kansas City and I'm A Loser over a month before Beatles For Sale was released. Nice colorization, too.
McCartneys vocal on Kansas City 🤯
He nailed it 👌
Singing Kansas City in E is hard. Paul singing in G and hitting every note is amazing!
I do it all the time.
Yeah, but you lowered the melody an octave to do it! @@erepsekahs
Looks fantastic! John and George blend together nicely.
Boggles my mind that we just accepted all the great music back then and expected it to continue as usual. And then there were The Beatles. I remember crying for days when they broke up. I knew they were special. But looking at this - how can they be so good???
I took it like it was a divorce in my family that I never saw coming... I was 7 and I cried too
Was a kid when they came out. I was about 11. Any new Beatle song that came out on the radio would give me chills of excitement. The tunes, so many so different than we'd hear in the past. The arrangements, the originality, great voices and particularly the harmonies. Can't imagine any group surpassing them.
I was 8 or 9 and remember well how we couldn't wait to hear the next new Beatle song. We always had the radio on at home and in the car. Luckily, my mother loved them as much as we kids did, and we would all sing along.
Great memories, right?
@@michelgauthier5377 The best memories.
Who knows with the internet era someone might pass them. Now everyone has the chance to make it.
That was so good. I had to watch it 3 times in a row. I could hear everything. Paul’s bass lines, the harmonies, John’s temporary insanity, George enjoying being a Beatle and the drumming introduction in the dark, intoxicating.
George is a great guitar player, my favorite band
Yeah, George never seemed to get the same credit as the songwriters in the band, but he nailed his solos, added that critical third harmony voice, and later on songs like “Baby You’re a Rich Man” he got wonderfully innovative as a player.
THE BEATLES TILL THE END OF TIME 🎉
That means forever because time has no end.
@@patbrennan6572 is true, thank's
I'm screaming right now!!! I just now found this on You Tube! I've heard so many versions Kansas City in my 69 years. The Beatles version is still my favorite!! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤😊 Love John's voice especially in " I'm a Loser". I used to watch Shindig every week as a kid😊. Beatles forever and ever!!❤❤❤😊
Just four Magicians having fun and making beautiful magic. It will never happen again.
Paul's voice is amazing great guitar player's as well
They rocked their cover versions but when they went into their original "I'm a loser," you could just feel it - something new was being unleashed in the world
Never knew they were on Shindig. Probably the cleanest live performance from them I've ever heard. Tight band
何てったってビートルズが最高です。 彼らを超えるものなんて永遠に現れません。 いつ見てもカッコよくて魅了されます。 決して 色褪せることがない。 そして何より音楽の天才だ。
You said a mouthful. . .
Paul sings Kansas City like the rocker he is.
Yeah. How old? I don't really understand how he could be that good so young.
For sure!! He soulfully vocally rocked on that song. A great demonstration of his vocal range and ad lib abilities. And to top it off . . . PLAYING BASS AT THE SAME TIME!! :)
But he's NOT quite playing; read the vid description.
Amazing, feels like I'm in the front row! The color generates so much intimacy.
The Greatest Band Ever, wrote and performed their own music. Excellent musicians so talented that will never be matched. Ringo's Boys is Outrageous 👣🎸🎸🎸
Ringo really rocked! Strangely sexy song about Boys…what a bundle of joy 🤩
BEATLES LIVE 1964 LOVE IT! The year I graduated high school. As my father once said to me. "Eddie, those were the good ole days"!
Great job on this one and the sound is excellent
0:15 Kansas City/Hey-Hey-Hey-Hey! 2:48 Introduction 2:59 I'm A Loser 5:20 Boys
I watched this show at the age of nine with two of my sisters. Had a guitar in my hand a few weeks later and have been playing ever since; still doing Beatles stuff in clubs and unlike me, it never gets old!
Wel done. Happy memories. 😊😊
Beautiful job and the performance was incredible. The Beatles taught me how to sing and play music and harmonies and timing in 1964. The best band although there are many. Vocals were overdubbed beautifully!
prerecorded and lip synced
Nice clip, as here we can see and hear them fresh off their 10,000+ hours of relentless performing over several long, hungry years (starting in the 50s), touring and playing all-night gigs at seedy, rough clubs in Hamburg and halls all over the UK, to culminate in this, a lean, mean, ultra pro unit ready to take on the whole world! A unique moment in history to be sure!
There was nowhere they could be that it wasnt where they were meant to be bro
They WERE amazing❤
The sharpness of the picture and the sound also seem to be improved along with the color. Thank you for the work you put into this. Great job!
This is gold I love it.
Pre-recorded or not, whoever had the privilege of seeing them live won! Anyone who didn't have this privilege lost! I'm one of those who didn't see it. God bless the Beatles! Beatles forever! 🙏🏆
Oh my gosh! I was 11 when this aired and haven't seen it since. Seeing my boy Ringo sing Boys again brought tears to my eyes. 😳 How is that possible after all these decades?
Is it just me or is it the first time that we've seen John appear on our left side of the stage instead of the right? I'm 66 years old and I've been watching The Beatles since I was six or seven I think! But I don't remember seeing John placed like this. God they were great!
Four musical geniuses all on stage together in an early setting of their musical careers. Never get tired of seeing these types of videos! Rock on Beatles!
The Beatles espetacular, sensacional. The Beatles para sempre!
Sin duda fueron un fenómeno musical del siglo!! :)
That is fantastic!!!! 👍🎁
Thank you for digging this up and sharing it with all of us! After all, we are all Beatles fans, right!?
Great performance and so much fun. HOWEVER, the music was pre-recorded prior to the show and they sang over their own backing. You can hear Ringo’s actual drum playing as clicks as he hits the rim during Boys. You can hear multiple vocal tracks on the Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey parts during Kansas City. You can also hear George’s solo guitar continue even after his finger stopped and he went back to the rhythm chords.
Thank you I didn't have the energy to type all that Lol. It's actually surprising to me as I had thought that they did all their live stuff actually live Also johns harmonica had a bit of harmonica from the backing track bleed through
@@theyrekrnations8990 I have watched a lifetime of Beatles footage and never noticed it until then. What I wouldn’t give to have been at a live Beatles performance. Just wow.
@@RogerPenrose1931 It would have been fantastic to have been at one of their shows. I believe that Cirkus krone is live in Germany. No backing tracks cuz it was not in a studio. There's a fresh colorized called 'Beatles live', here on YT
Correct. ✔️
Exactly right. You can hear John's harmonica going when he wasn't playing it also.
I read that this, the first UK episode of Shindig, appeared on ABC in the states but never in the UK. The reason-not enough screaming. Evidently the audience was made up of Beatles UK fan club and the producer, Jack Good, added “American screams” Thank you for sharing! This is fantastic and the backstory only added to the history. Long live The Beatles ❤
Not only a great performance, but the colorization and audio restoration are on point. Very well done!
This is sooooo awesome! Thank you❤ I remember when the Beatles started out and then came to the United States and performed on the Ed Sullivan show. This still the greatest rock band ever!
1:32 John's best vocal ever!
Still new footage being found and released after almost 60 years... Only The Beatles can garner this kind of interest and attention after all these years... AMAZING!
I like how Paul is mouthing the words while John sings!
Oh! My! John and the guys take the cake!! Sooo funnyyy! LOL! Great songs and great performance, always!!
*THE best band ever. Beatles forever ❤️ EDIT: YALL I FIXED IT
Yeah...they were kinda...awesome. (BEST BAND EVER.)
Drop the "One of". They're THE BEST
Not one of….THE BEST!
THE BEST!!!
Understatement of the century 😅
A PHENOMENAL colorization, Sir. I could actually BELIEVE this was originally recorded in color. Most other colorization jobs I see look like the person doing it just slapped on some filter and walked away till it was done. This one is CONVINCING, and worthy of praise and an upvote. Keep up the excellent work, and I'll be watching. (And, as always, Ringo just seems happy to be there. Even George smiles in a big grin every time he turns back and looks at his friend.)
Thank you so much, it means a lot.
One of very few live performances by The Beatles where girls were NOT screaming through the whole performance. Amazing video.
60 years ago I was 12 years old and so captivated with them. Thank you for this never seen performance!
Never seen this footage before. Great to hear the first two songs from the (very unfairly in my opinion) often criticised Beatles For Sale album.
I caught myself smiling throughout the entire performance. Thank you! 😊
Awesome job on the colourization and sound. Really brings the performance to life.
Always great to see these guys back in the day!!! I was just a kid but i remember it all!!!! They honed their skills playing live in Germany for years! Love these guys!!!!
FAB four indeed. Many thanks to those involved in putting this wonderful footage out for all of us to enjoy.Sheer joy!
