I’ve been writing about the Get Back sessions for 10 yrs, approaching it w/same attitude we’ll see in #TheBeatlesGetBack. I’m no filmmaker but am a writer/researcher & if you want to flesh it all - you should - visit theymaybeparted.com for that & beyond. It’s well-regarded!

A fine addition to any video playlist, the Let It Be film version of "Two of Us" dropped at the Beatles' YouTube channel an hour ago. You've seen it before, but here's an excuse to see it again: youtube.com/watch?v=B7VaUS…

HAPPY OPENING DAY! Let's indulge in the very best things: The Beatles and baseball. Sure, we all know about Shea, but there are far more connections than you may think! From a piece I assigned myself a few years back for MLB (my day job) #LGM ⚾🎸🎸🎸🥁mlb.com/news/top-beatl…

So it would be a monumental hassle to get out there, and the odds of being picked are slim, but gotta be in it to win it 🙏

That same party is also when Paul and Peter Brown started informally discussing a promotional plan for the forthcoming McCartney LP. From the McCartney Legacy:

Today also marks the 56th anniversary of what was reported to be the last time all four Beatles were together in the same place. Excerpt below from Chris O'Dell's memoir, on Pattie's birthday party/Friar Park housewarming on March 17, 1970:

March 12, 1969, wasn't all good. The same day Paul and Linda wed, George Harrison became the second Beatle busted by Sgt. Pilcher. Looking back on the raid, from the original Anthology cut 👮📷 🥾youtube.com/watch?v=lHM5WF…

Need another reason to appreciate the Rutles? Of course not. Still, check out Dirk & Martini's wedding day. @ericidle dons the same black jacket/yellow tie combo, plus similar door backdrop at the end, characteristic attention to detail. Let's Be Natural! youtube.com/watch?v=TFP32C…

Linda Eastman and Paul McCartney wed 57 years ago today, March 12, 1969, after months of rumors. It was a lovely romance, and a marriage that lasted nearly three decades. Here's a tiny thread on the day, starting with a segment from the Wingspan doc💍youtube.com/watch?v=x2w36T…

@nick_field90 I’m very excited to watch, although I don’t think I’ll have a chance to actually do it til tomorrow. This is exciting, something even more that I’m looking forward to now!

Today would have been George Harrison's 83rd birthday in the material world (or maybe it was yesterday). From the archives, here's my birthday card to George, revisiting his deeply vibrant period between his 25th & 26th birthdays, from Feb. 1968-69 🎂🎸🕉 theymaybeparted.com/2016/02/25/tmb…

Watching that woman perform with the guitar on stage at the Verona Arena during the Olympic closing ceremonies, it struck me if Michael Lindsay-Hogg knew of this place. Could have been an easier sell to have Beatles playing Italy in January 1969 instead of traveling to Tunisia

Charge your earbuds and fire up your fave podcast app as I join The Beatles: Note By Note to dig into “Everybody’s Trying To Be My Baby,” tying Carl Perkins’ influence & inspiration from the band’s outset to final song (and beyond). A blast of a chat! 🎧 notebynoteseries.com/episodes/083-e…

I’ve said it many times before, the Beatles were very good at not being broken up until they decided to really break up (and then, they were not very good in clearly breaking up)

This is when I used to give the hot take the Get Back sessions couldn't have been so bad, they were eager to record again 3 weeks later, held up by legit reasons like tonsils & essential personnel tied up overseas. Not so hot anymore! (and that's good!) x.com/TheyMayBeParte…
They May Be Parted@TheyMayBeParted

@thebeatles The Get Back/Let It Be sessions didn't break up the Beatles! Don't listen to people who tell you that! If George didn't get his tonsils out, Ringo didn't film The Magic Christian, if Billy wasn't unavailable, they would have gotten together sooner than the 3 weeks it took them.

It’s Feb 22 and 57 years ago - about 3 weeks post-Roof - the Beatles & Billy (and minus George's tonsils) were marvelously loud at Trident in their 1st proper stab at "I Want You (She's So Heavy)", the blurry line between the Get Back & Abbey Road sessions youtube.com/watch?v=BvT4BU…
