00:00:27,847 --> 00:00:31,396
We're sorry, but plenty of people
in England haven't seen us
2
00:00:31,527 --> 00:00:37,443
For everybody to see us at once,
we'd have to do a world satellite TV show
3
00:00:37,727 --> 00:00:43,279
It was supposedly the very first
satellite hook-up around the world
4
00:00:43,687 --> 00:00:48,317
I don't know how many millions of people
but some phenomenal amount
5
00:00:49,127 --> 00:00:52,915
It was probably
the very earliest technology
6
00:00:53,047 --> 00:00:56,164
that enabled that kind
of satellite link
7
00:00:56,327 --> 00:01:00,081
George Martin
Record Producer
John wrote All You Need is Love
specially for the television show
8
00:01:00,207 --> 00:01:03,882
It was a commission.
Brian suddenly whirled in and said:
9
00:01:04,007 --> 00:01:09,001
"We are to represent Britain in this
round the world hook-up. Write a song"
10
00:01:09,327 --> 00:01:14,447
Because of the mood of the time,
it seemed a great idea to do that song
11
00:01:14,567 --> 00:01:19,243
Everybody else was showing
people knitting in Canada
12
00:01:19,367 --> 00:01:25,363
and Irish clog dancers in Venezuela.
We'll just sing All You Need is Love
13
00:01:25,487 --> 00:01:29,002
It's a kind of subtle bit of PR
14
00:01:29,127 --> 00:01:33,120
for God, basically
15
00:01:34,207 --> 00:01:37,995
I don't know if the song
was written before that
16
00:01:38,127 --> 00:01:44,316
We were making an album at the time
so lots of songs were in circulation
17
00:01:45,247 --> 00:01:48,045
Paul may know more about that.
Over to you, Paul
18
00:01:49,367 --> 00:01:53,360
I'm not sure...
it was John's song, mainly
19
00:01:55,127 --> 00:01:58,278
I don't think it was written specially for it
20
00:01:58,407 --> 00:02:03,800
but it was one of the songs we had.
George Martin might have a better idea
21
00:02:06,087 --> 00:02:08,806
It was certainly tailored to it,
once we had it
22
00:02:08,927 --> 00:02:11,964
But I've a feeling
it was just one of John's songs
23
00:02:12,087 --> 00:02:17,445
We went down to Olympic Studios
in Barnes and recorded it
24
00:02:19,447 --> 00:02:24,601
It became 'the song we should use'.
I don't think it was written for it
25
00:02:25,127 --> 00:02:28,642
Yeah, they wrote it specifically for that,
and we all dressed up again
26
00:02:28,767 --> 00:02:32,555
We were getting to love dressing up!
27
00:02:32,687 --> 00:02:36,521
And we had another suit
but mine was so bloody heavy
28
00:02:36,647 --> 00:02:40,799
Simon and Marijke from The Fool -
that was the company -
29
00:02:40,927 --> 00:02:43,999
had all this beading on -
as we'll cut to right now
30
00:02:44,927 --> 00:02:47,282
It just weighed a ton
31
00:02:47,407 --> 00:02:50,205
It was a fabulous time,
musically and spiritually
32
00:02:50,927 --> 00:02:56,445
We'd prepared a basic track
for the recording, for the TV show
33
00:02:56,567 --> 00:02:59,639
but we were going to do a lot live
34
00:02:59,767 --> 00:03:04,795
The orchestra was live, and the singing
and the audience and so on
35
00:03:05,087 --> 00:03:07,555
We knew it was to be
a live television show
36
00:03:07,687 --> 00:03:12,238
There was also a camera
in the control room, on us doing our bit
37
00:03:13,167 --> 00:03:16,477
About 30 seconds to go on the air,
there was a phone call
38
00:03:16,607 --> 00:03:22,842
The producer of the show,
saying "I've lost contact with the studio"
39
00:03:23,087 --> 00:03:27,797
"You'll have to relay instructions to them
as we'll be on air any moment now"
40
00:03:27,927 --> 00:03:30,919
And I thought if you're going
to make a fool of yourself...
41
00:03:31,047 --> 00:03:33,481
do it in front of 200 million people!
42
00:03:36,047 --> 00:03:40,359
The man upstairs pointed his finger
and we did it, one take
43
00:03:45,567 --> 00:03:50,516
Our World
Global Satellite Broadcast 25th June 1967
44
00:06:56,527 --> 00:06:59,325
I still believe all you need is love
45
00:06:59,447 --> 00:07:03,406
but I don't believe that just
saying it is going to do it
46
00:07:03,527 --> 00:07:06,678
I still believe that love
is what we all need
47
00:07:08,967 --> 00:07:10,525
And it was for love
48
00:07:10,647 --> 00:07:14,435
It was for love and bloody peace again.
It was a fabulous time
49
00:07:15,127 --> 00:07:20,918
Even now, I'm still excited
when I realise that's what it was for
50
00:07:21,047 --> 00:07:24,835
People putting flowers in guns,
San Francisco was just exploding
51
00:07:24,967 --> 00:07:28,516
Here was fabulous California,
where we are, L.A.
52
00:07:29,767 --> 00:07:34,397
It was just exciting times.
And all for this loving feeling
53
00:07:34,767 --> 00:07:38,555
And music. The whole rest
of it was just music
54
00:07:38,687 --> 00:07:44,319
There were psychedelic posters
coming in from San Francisco. Great!
55
00:07:44,567 --> 00:07:49,925
The summer of love's a little bit too easy,
but some sort of golden summer
56
00:07:51,167 --> 00:07:56,560
Everywhere we went,
people were smiling
57
00:07:56,687 --> 00:07:59,884
and sitting on lawns, drinking tea
58
00:08:00,007 --> 00:08:03,238
Festivals of music and stuff
59
00:08:03,367 --> 00:08:08,521
That summer of love, a lot was bullshit,
just what the press were saying
60
00:08:08,647 --> 00:08:11,639
But there was definitely a vibe
61
00:08:12,327 --> 00:08:17,321
In America, we could feel what's going on,
even though we were miles away
62
00:08:17,447 --> 00:08:20,245
You could just pick up the vibes
63
00:08:20,967 --> 00:08:23,197
I was all for going there
and living on the Haight
64
00:08:23,327 --> 00:08:26,717
In my head I thought acid is it,
this is the answer, let's go
65
00:08:26,847 --> 00:08:30,886
I'll go there and make music,
but of course it didn't come true
66
00:08:31,247 --> 00:08:33,442
In the end George went over
67
00:08:33,647 --> 00:08:38,960
I went to Haight Ashbury
expecting it to be this brilliant place
68
00:08:39,247 --> 00:08:44,401
and it was full of horrible
spotty drop-out kids on drugs
69
00:09:11,567 --> 00:09:15,765
It certainly showed me what was
really happening in the drug cult
70
00:09:15,887 --> 00:09:19,084
It wasn't what I thought -
of all these groovy people
71
00:09:19,207 --> 00:09:22,882
having spiritual awakenings
and being artistic
72
00:09:23,007 --> 00:09:27,523
It was just like the Bowery,
it was like alcoholism
73
00:09:27,647 --> 00:09:30,957
It was like any addiction
74
00:09:31,767 --> 00:09:36,636
So at that point I stopped taking it
75
00:09:36,767 --> 00:09:39,884
the dreaded lysergic
76
00:09:42,767 --> 00:09:48,478
I had some in a little bottle,
it was liquid
77
00:09:48,607 --> 00:09:53,601
I put it under a microscope
and it looked like old rope
78
00:09:54,247 --> 00:09:58,559
I thought, I'm not going to put
that in my brain any more
79
00:09:59,047 --> 00:10:03,916
I was influenced by acid and got
psychedelic like the whole generation
80
00:10:04,047 --> 00:10:06,845
but really I like rock'n'roll
81
00:10:07,127 --> 00:10:09,641
It was one of those things
that happened as life went on
82
00:10:10,527 --> 00:10:16,318
We'd been into drugs and the next
step is to try to find a meaning
83
00:10:16,727 --> 00:10:21,278
That's where I really went
for the meditation
84
00:10:21,567 --> 00:10:24,639
There's this thing called a mantra
85
00:10:24,767 --> 00:10:27,235
And a mantra is...
86
00:10:27,767 --> 00:10:34,002
Through the mantra, you can follow
a technique that helps you to transcend
87
00:10:34,127 --> 00:10:37,597
To go beyond the waking,
sleeping, dreaming state
88
00:10:37,727 --> 00:10:43,006
So OK, I need a mantra -
where do you go?
89
00:10:43,127 --> 00:10:46,358
You can't go to Harrods and get a mantra
90
00:10:46,487 --> 00:10:52,357
Then I met David Wynne, who showed me
a picture and said he's coming to lecture
91
00:10:53,167 --> 00:10:57,206
He's called Maharishi.
So I got some tickets
92
00:10:57,327 --> 00:11:00,444
Then I thought, I'll get some
in case the others want to go
93
00:11:00,767 --> 00:11:04,806
Oh yeah! So we went along
and I thought he made a lot of sense
94
00:11:04,927 --> 00:11:09,318
He basically said that with
a simple system of meditation
95
00:11:09,447 --> 00:11:12,325
20 minutes, morning and evening
96
00:11:12,447 --> 00:11:16,326
no big crazy thing,
you can improve the quality of your life
97
00:11:16,447 --> 00:11:20,326
and find some sort of meaning
in doing so
98
00:11:20,567 --> 00:11:27,166
After the lecture-because the Beatles
could get in anywhere -
99
00:11:27,287 --> 00:11:32,884
so we got backstage, met Maharishi
100
00:11:33,967 --> 00:11:38,802
I said to him "Got any mantras?
Give us a mantra!"
101
00:11:38,927 --> 00:11:43,603
He said "We're in Bangor tomorrow,
you should come and get initiated"
102
00:11:44,127 --> 00:11:48,723
At that time Maureen
was in hospital having Jason
103
00:11:49,487 --> 00:11:52,399
I was visiting
104
00:11:53,047 --> 00:11:56,926
I came home and put on
the answerphone
105
00:11:57,047 --> 00:12:00,562
Even in those days
we had answerphones
106
00:12:01,247 --> 00:12:06,480
A message from John: "We've seen this
guy and we're all going to Wales"
107
00:12:06,927 --> 00:12:12,047
And from George: "Wow man, we've seen
this guy, Maharishi. He's great!"
108
00:12:12,167 --> 00:12:16,206
We're all going to Wales on Saturday.
You've got to come
109
00:12:17,127 --> 00:12:20,676
The Beatles seem to be among your
supporters. How do you feel about that?
110
00:12:20,807 --> 00:12:24,686
Maharishi Mahesh Yogi
I feel a great fondness
for the younger generation
111
00:12:24,847 --> 00:12:28,556
If the Beatles take up this
transcendental meditation
112
00:12:28,687 --> 00:12:33,044
they are the ideal of energy and
intelligence in the younger generation
113
00:12:33,167 --> 00:12:39,163
That will bring youth to a very good level
of understanding and intelligence
114
00:12:39,527 --> 00:12:43,361
I am very happy that they heard
my lecture last evening
115
00:12:43,487 --> 00:12:49,084
We talked after the lecture. They seem
to be very intelligent and alert
116
00:12:49,327 --> 00:12:54,162
We'd rung our mates: "He's great this
guy, you ought to come and see him"
117
00:12:54,287 --> 00:12:59,805
It was like a good book you'd read.
"Hey, try it, I'll send you a copy"
118
00:12:59,927 --> 00:13:03,442
That kind of thing.
"Come, he'll be there, come with us"
119
00:13:03,607 --> 00:13:07,236
We got up there and there
was a crowd to meet us
120
00:13:07,407 --> 00:13:11,241
We all wandered through
in our psychedelic gear
121
00:13:11,367 --> 00:13:14,200
25th August 1967
It was like a summer camp
122
00:13:14,367 --> 00:13:19,236
You sit around
and he tells you how to do it
123
00:13:19,407 --> 00:13:22,399
You go to your room and try to do it,
and of course you can't
124
00:13:22,527 --> 00:13:25,883
You sit there and you've got
a mantra to meditate on
125
00:13:26,007 --> 00:13:31,843
You think, bloody hell, that train journey
was a bit much-sorry, mantra
126
00:13:33,127 --> 00:13:37,678
Bloody hell, I wonder what our next record's
going to be... oh stop, stop!
127
00:13:37,807 --> 00:13:41,595
You spend all your first few days
just trying to stop your mind...
128
00:13:41,727 --> 00:13:44,844
dealing with your social calendar,
whatever's coming up
129
00:13:44,967 --> 00:13:49,643
God, he's a funny bloke, that Mah...
oop, no, but it was good
130
00:13:50,007 --> 00:13:54,398
I was really impressed with the Maharishi.
He was always laughing
131
00:13:54,887 --> 00:13:59,085
So we listened to his lectures
and we started meditating
132
00:13:59,247 --> 00:14:01,966
We were given our mantras
133
00:14:04,007 --> 00:14:09,445
It was another point of view. We were
getting into Eastern philosophies now
134
00:14:09,647 --> 00:14:15,756
You just sit and let your mind go.
It doesn't matter what you think about
135
00:14:15,887 --> 00:14:21,325
Then you introduce the mantra,
the vibration, to take over from a thought
136
00:14:21,447 --> 00:14:24,280
You don't will it, or use your will-power
137
00:14:28,647 --> 00:14:32,117
I seem to recall it was a phone call
138
00:14:33,647 --> 00:14:40,598
Somebody came to us
at Bangor and said...
139
00:14:40,767 --> 00:14:46,558
...that he'd died. We were off finding
the meaning of life, and he was dead
140
00:14:47,247 --> 00:14:52,480
Neil Aspinall
Tour Manager
I heard it on the car radio that he'd died
141
00:14:52,887 --> 00:14:56,960
The local shopkeeper said
"Sorry about the news"
142
00:14:57,087 --> 00:14:59,203
"What news?"
He said "Your friend's died"
143
00:14:59,647 --> 00:15:01,444
Our friend has gone
144
00:15:06,807 --> 00:15:11,562
I don't know what to say,
we've only just heard
145
00:15:11,687 --> 00:15:15,362
27th August 1967
He was a beautiful fellow and it's terrible
146
00:15:15,487 --> 00:15:17,205
What are your plans now?
147
00:15:17,327 --> 00:15:22,355
We haven't made any,
we've only just heard
148
00:15:22,847 --> 00:15:25,122
It's as much news to us
as it is to everybody else
149
00:15:25,727 --> 00:15:28,719
I spoke to him Wednesday evening
150
00:15:28,847 --> 00:15:32,442
The evening before we first
saw Maharishi's lecture
151
00:15:32,567 --> 00:15:35,161
He was in great spirits
152
00:15:35,407 --> 00:15:40,322
I understand that this afternoon
Maharishi conferred with you all
153
00:15:40,447 --> 00:15:43,883
Could I ask what advice he offered you?
154
00:15:44,007 --> 00:15:49,035
He told us not to
get overwhelmed by grief
155
00:15:49,167 --> 00:15:52,125
and whatever thoughts we have of Brian,
to keep them happy
156
00:15:52,247 --> 00:15:56,445
because any thoughts we have of him
will travel to him, wherever he is
157
00:15:57,007 --> 00:16:00,761
We were all gutted, you know.
It was a huge shock
158
00:16:00,887 --> 00:16:05,881
He was one of the people
we had known longest
159
00:16:06,007 --> 00:16:08,475
A huge confidant of ours
160
00:16:08,607 --> 00:16:14,603
When anyone dies like that, it's the shock
that you won't see them again
161
00:16:19,847 --> 00:16:25,524
The blood drained from the face,
you know - Brian's dead
162
00:16:25,647 --> 00:16:29,686
There was very little we knew,
other than that he'd been found dead
163
00:16:29,807 --> 00:16:32,480
We just knew... well, that's it
164
00:16:32,607 --> 00:16:36,600
It was very strange for it to happen
at that precise moment
165
00:16:36,727 --> 00:16:39,799
We'd just got involved
with this meditation
166
00:16:40,327 --> 00:16:45,526
Your belief system gets suspended
because you don't want to hear it
167
00:16:45,647 --> 00:16:48,366
You don't know what
to do with it, anyway
168
00:16:48,487 --> 00:16:52,275
If you look at our faces in the film,
all a bit like...
169
00:16:52,727 --> 00:16:57,243
What is it? What does it mean?
Our friend has gone
170
00:16:59,127 --> 00:17:02,597
More our friend than anything else.
Brian was a friend of ours
171
00:17:02,887 --> 00:17:06,323
I don't think there was anything sinister
172
00:17:06,447 --> 00:17:11,362
Rumours came out that it was
very sinister circumstances
173
00:17:11,487 --> 00:17:13,762
But those are easy to do
after the event
174
00:17:13,887 --> 00:17:17,926
I went round a couple of days later -
Brian had a butler working for him
175
00:17:18,047 --> 00:17:21,722
and he didn't seem to feel
there was anything suspicious
176
00:17:21,847 --> 00:17:25,556
He felt that he wasn't
in any sort of black mood
177
00:17:25,687 --> 00:17:30,522
He could have been. I don't know.
But my feeling was that it was an accident
178
00:17:30,687 --> 00:17:34,805
I don't believe he committed suicide.
I believe it was an accident
179
00:17:34,927 --> 00:17:38,715
In those days, everybody was topping
themselves accidentally
180
00:17:38,847 --> 00:17:43,716
by taking uppers andlor
amphetemine and alcohol
181
00:17:44,367 --> 00:17:46,517
That happens, you know
182
00:17:46,647 --> 00:17:50,799
I feel that happened with Keith Moon,
one too many... I can deal with it
183
00:17:50,927 --> 00:17:56,638
Jimi whatever...
Jim, Mama, all those people
184
00:17:56,887 --> 00:18:00,675
I don't think any of them set out to die
185
00:18:02,887 --> 00:18:06,004
Have you a tribute
you'd like to pay to Mr Epstein?
186
00:18:06,127 --> 00:18:11,759
We don't know what to say.
He was one of us, so you can't...
187
00:18:11,887 --> 00:18:14,481
We can't pay tribute in words
188
00:20:31,887 --> 00:20:34,082
I knew that we were in trouble then
189
00:20:34,207 --> 00:20:38,405
I didn't have any misconceptions about
our abilities other than to play music
190
00:20:38,527 --> 00:20:41,997
I was scared. I thought
we've fucking had it now
191
00:20:42,607 --> 00:20:46,600
Brian Epstein
1934- 1967
192
00:20:50,767 --> 00:20:54,237
There was a huge void,
we didn't know anything about...
193
00:20:54,367 --> 00:20:59,566
our personal business and finances
194
00:20:59,687 --> 00:21:03,919
He had taken care of everything
195
00:21:04,127 --> 00:21:08,120
I suppose it was chaos after that
196
00:21:08,287 --> 00:21:11,085
We were kind of managing ourselves
197
00:21:11,207 --> 00:21:17,157
It was very sad to lose an old mate
under those circumstances
198
00:21:17,367 --> 00:21:21,565
But I don't think the major worry
was what next, not having a manager
199
00:21:21,687 --> 00:21:23,803
We'd been moving away from that
200
00:21:23,967 --> 00:21:29,599
We decided we had to keep on trucking
201
00:21:31,087 --> 00:21:36,161
They'd always discussed
whatever they were doing with Brian
202
00:21:36,287 --> 00:21:40,075
Now there was nobody.
There was Brian's organisation
203
00:21:40,207 --> 00:21:44,883
but we hadn't related to that,
we'd only ever related to Brian
204
00:21:46,247 --> 00:21:50,035
We were suddenly like headless chickens.
What are we going to do?
205
00:21:50,247 --> 00:21:55,480
That's when Neil stepped in and tried
to figure out what was happening
206
00:21:55,887 --> 00:21:58,765
As far as I was concerned,
we had to get it together
207
00:21:58,887 --> 00:22:04,598
But the other people out there,
Brian's associates if you like
208
00:22:04,727 --> 00:22:08,242
accountants, lawyers,
all that sort of stuff
209
00:22:08,367 --> 00:22:15,159
I think maybe the lunatics
had now got hold of the asylum
210
00:22:15,287 --> 00:22:18,279
What were the Beatles going to do?
211
00:22:18,407 --> 00:22:21,399
And so there was a lot of...
212
00:22:22,607 --> 00:22:26,964
different advice coming in
about what they should do
213
00:22:27,087 --> 00:22:33,401
We decided we needed an office
and organisation of our own
214
00:22:33,527 --> 00:22:39,602
and that's really why we expanded Apple,
'cos Apple already existed
215
00:22:39,727 --> 00:22:44,198
I think it was a publishing company
in an office on Baker Street
216
00:22:45,007 --> 00:22:48,283
Paul made an attempt to carry on
as if Brian hadn't died
217
00:22:48,407 --> 00:22:52,195
I think Paul had an impression
we should be thankful for what he did
218
00:22:52,327 --> 00:22:54,921
For keeping the Beatles going
219
00:22:55,327 --> 00:22:59,206
At some point
John got a bit annoyed, saying...
220
00:22:59,327 --> 00:23:03,479
Paul's trying to be the leader
of the group and stuff
221
00:23:03,607 --> 00:23:06,724
It's possible that I was there
more than anyone
222
00:23:06,847 --> 00:23:11,125
When we did Magical Mystery Tour,
I ended up kind of directing it
223
00:23:11,247 --> 00:23:14,842
even though we said the Beatles
have directed at the end
224
00:23:15,247 --> 00:23:17,602
Just 'cos I was there
most of the time
225
00:23:17,727 --> 00:23:21,640
and the late night chats about the next
day's work would tend to be with me
226
00:24:02,567 --> 00:24:04,364
It was Paul's idea
227
00:24:04,487 --> 00:24:07,285
It was basically a charabanc trip
228
00:24:07,407 --> 00:24:11,195
which people used to go on from
Liverpool to see the Blackpool lights
229
00:24:11,327 --> 00:24:16,845
They'd get crates of beer and an
accordion player and all get pissed
230
00:24:16,967 --> 00:24:21,597
and just go... pissed in the
English sense, meaning drunk...
231
00:24:21,727 --> 00:24:27,723
and just go to see the Blackpool lights
232
00:24:28,167 --> 00:24:32,365
It was a very flimsy kind of thing
233
00:24:32,767 --> 00:24:37,761
I think it was Paul's idea.
He and John sat down...
234
00:24:37,887 --> 00:24:42,881
I think in Paul's place in St John's Wood,
and they just drew a circle
235
00:24:43,087 --> 00:24:47,399
Then marked it off
like spokes on a wheel
236
00:24:47,527 --> 00:24:52,601
"We can have a song here
237
00:24:52,727 --> 00:24:57,755
"We can have this here,
we can have this dream sequence there"
238
00:24:57,887 --> 00:25:01,926
They mapped it out,
but it was a bit rough
239
00:25:02,167 --> 00:25:04,965
Then he came and showed me
what his idea was
240
00:25:05,087 --> 00:25:09,080
How it went round like this,
the story and the production
241
00:25:09,207 --> 00:25:11,801
He said here's the segment,
you write a little piece for that
242
00:25:12,087 --> 00:25:17,684
It was Paul who came with a piece
of paper, the way we used to work
243
00:25:17,967 --> 00:25:21,846
I'm not sure, it could have been mine
244
00:25:21,967 --> 00:25:25,084
I'm not sure whether
I want to take the blame for it
245
00:25:25,207 --> 00:25:30,645
We were all in on it but a lot of that stuff
could have been my ideas
246
00:25:30,767 --> 00:25:36,524
I was coming up with a lot of concepts,
like in Sgt Pepper
247
00:25:36,647 --> 00:25:41,118
We all worked on all the stuff
but I was coming up with a lot of ideas
248
00:25:41,327 --> 00:25:47,004
We looked through the actors' book,
The Spotlight or whatever
249
00:25:47,127 --> 00:25:49,595
Oh, we need someone like that
and someone like that
250
00:25:49,727 --> 00:25:53,640
And we needed the large lady
as my auntie
251
00:25:53,847 --> 00:25:56,566
I was going to play this person
with this auntie
252
00:26:32,807 --> 00:26:38,803
We weren't doing a regular film, it was
a crazy '60s film - I am the egg man
253
00:26:38,927 --> 00:26:43,876
and I just wandered off to France
and did that Fool on the Hill stuff
254
00:26:44,007 --> 00:26:47,204
Just one morning with a couple of mates.
It wasn't quite union
255
00:28:04,487 --> 00:28:10,756
I remember quite a bit of it really,
in a big hangar down in Kent
256
00:28:11,127 --> 00:28:16,281
We were driving round this airfield
in a Mini Cooper
257
00:28:17,207 --> 00:28:19,675
Your Mother Should Know
258
00:28:20,527 --> 00:28:23,246
That was quite interesting,
I enjoyed that
259
00:29:50,007 --> 00:29:51,998
There were always good songs
260
00:29:52,127 --> 00:29:55,961
A couple of good songs
and a few funny scenes
261
00:29:56,087 --> 00:29:58,317
The scene to me that stands out
262
00:29:58,447 --> 00:30:02,884
is the one of John shovelling the spaghetti
on to the fat woman's plate
263
00:30:03,007 --> 00:30:05,646
That was the best bit
of the movie for me
264
00:30:12,247 --> 00:30:15,125
That was an actual dream he'd had
265
00:30:15,247 --> 00:30:19,240
He'd come in and say "Hey, I had this
wild dream last night. I'd like to do it"
266
00:30:19,367 --> 00:30:25,044
We'd just put them in.
It was very haphazard
267
00:30:25,167 --> 00:30:29,524
Looking back on it,
you learn by your mistakes
268
00:30:47,447 --> 00:30:53,443
It's quite interesting now,
looking back on it as a period piece
269
00:30:53,567 --> 00:30:57,355
People like Spielberg... I've read
that people like him have said:
270
00:30:57,487 --> 00:31:01,719
"When I was in film school,
that was a film we really took notice of"
271
00:31:01,847 --> 00:31:04,998
Like an art film,
rather than a proper film
272
00:31:05,127 --> 00:31:08,039
But of course we then released it
273
00:31:08,167 --> 00:31:11,204
Got it shown on the BBC on Boxing Day
274
00:31:11,567 --> 00:31:17,164
They showed it in black and white,
and so... It was hated
275
00:31:17,287 --> 00:31:20,597
They all had their chance then
to say they've gone too far
276
00:31:20,727 --> 00:31:23,161
Who do they think they are?
What does it mean?
277
00:31:23,327 --> 00:31:28,560
If you look to your left, ladies and
gentlemen, the view is not very inspiring
278
00:31:29,127 --> 00:31:31,516
Ah, but if you look to your right...
279
00:31:31,927 --> 00:31:36,443
So that was really slated but when
people started seeing it in colour
280
00:31:36,887 --> 00:31:40,323
they realised that it was a lot of fun
281
00:31:40,447 --> 00:31:42,722
Especially that aerial 'ballet' shot
282
00:31:42,847 --> 00:31:47,079
We went all over Iceland,
sent a guy out filming
283
00:32:02,767 --> 00:32:06,237
In reality we hadn't done it...
284
00:32:08,567 --> 00:32:12,640
as professionally as
it could have been done
285
00:32:13,327 --> 00:32:18,082
But it was our first go
at that sort of stuff
286
00:32:18,207 --> 00:32:24,203
It was in a very traumatic period
of everybody's career, if you like
287
00:32:24,607 --> 00:32:26,677
We did the best we could
288
00:32:26,807 --> 00:32:31,085
I think under all the circumstances
it really turned out very well
289
00:32:31,647 --> 00:32:35,322
I think we thought it was OK,
we were quite pleased with it
290
00:32:35,447 --> 00:32:39,838
At the time it was all right,
not the greatest thing we'd ever done
291
00:32:39,967 --> 00:32:44,518
I defend it because nowhere else do you
see a performance of I Am The Walrus
292
00:32:44,647 --> 00:32:46,638
The only performance ever
293
00:32:46,767 --> 00:32:49,235
so that's enough to make it
an interesting film
294
00:32:50,047 --> 00:32:53,483
And now we're going to play a track
from Magical Mystery Tour
295
00:32:53,607 --> 00:32:56,758
which is one of my favourite albums
because it was so weird
296
00:32:56,887 --> 00:33:02,041
I Am The Walrus is also one of my
favourite tracks-because I did it
297
00:33:02,207 --> 00:33:07,839
It has enough little bitties going to
keep you interested 100 years later
298
00:37:13,287 --> 00:37:17,121
We brought the Beatles
to America in 1963
299
00:37:17,247 --> 00:37:20,364
They can't be with us in person
on our show, December 10th
300
00:37:20,487 --> 00:37:25,720
when CBS and Mayor Lindsay will be
naming this theatre after our show
301
00:37:25,847 --> 00:37:30,159
But they sent this cablegram
from London:
302
00:37:30,287 --> 00:37:36,237
"Winter has come again to Great Britain
and we sit by our fires, warming our feet
303
00:37:36,367 --> 00:37:39,439
"We send all love to you
and everyone looking in
304
00:37:39,567 --> 00:37:44,516
"We are happy to be on your show,
you too... too
305
00:37:44,647 --> 00:37:48,925
"Have a beautiful Christmas and a
sincere New Year. Love, The Beatles"
306
00:37:49,047 --> 00:37:54,246
Signed by John Lennon, Paul McCartney,
Ringo Starr and George Harrison
307
00:37:54,527 --> 00:38:00,363
But tonight, although they can't be here,
here are the Beatles on film
308
00:41:35,767 --> 00:41:41,205
That was very thoughtful of the guys
who prepared that for us
309
00:41:41,327 --> 00:41:44,239
Incidentally, Hello, Goodbye
is their latest hit record
310
00:41:45,127 --> 00:41:50,440
In London, when the Beatles open
a shop, everything slows down
311
00:42:09,007 --> 00:42:13,046
A rolling stone's throw from Orchard St -
Apple, the Beatles' new boutique
312
00:42:13,207 --> 00:42:16,677
To mark the opening, the proud owners
gave an apple-juice party
313
00:42:19,927 --> 00:42:23,806
John Lennon and George Harrison were
the hosts, the other two were out of town
314
00:42:23,927 --> 00:42:26,122
Paul's in Liverpool and Ringo's in Rome
315
00:42:26,247 --> 00:42:29,523
Disc jockey Alan Freeman
talking to Cilla Black
316
00:42:30,047 --> 00:42:36,077
Opening of the Apple Shop
London 5th December 1967
Richard Lester, director of the Beatles
films, among the 'in' crowd
317
00:42:52,927 --> 00:42:57,921
On sale will be books, jewellery,
paintings, hippy clothes and furniture
318
00:42:58,287 --> 00:43:01,085
Apart from the loony clothes
319
00:43:01,447 --> 00:43:04,962
and the hippy flower power stuff
320
00:43:05,087 --> 00:43:11,925
There was supposed to be different music
they now call World Music on sale
321
00:43:12,047 --> 00:43:14,959
That's what we're supposed to do
322
00:43:15,087 --> 00:43:19,080
and sell all these books
about various things we were into
323
00:43:19,207 --> 00:43:25,043
Various art or spiritual things,
incense and whatever
324
00:43:25,167 --> 00:43:29,638
All that kind of stuff.
It looked quite good
325
00:43:30,007 --> 00:43:34,398
The building was very nice-the painting
was gorgeous. The Fool did that
326
00:43:34,527 --> 00:43:40,636
A group of artists from Holland
put this beautiful big mural on the wall
327
00:43:40,767 --> 00:43:46,080
The Council got their knickers
in a twist and said paint it white again
328
00:43:46,207 --> 00:43:50,564
We said it's beautiful. Everyone loves it.
Some residents probably objected
329
00:43:50,807 --> 00:43:55,437
So then we were going to paint it white
and project it from opposite
330
00:43:55,567 --> 00:43:58,604
You know we were full of that.
They were good ideas
331
00:43:58,727 --> 00:44:04,085
Some you didn't get round to doing
but it was a great ideas time
332
00:44:06,967 --> 00:44:12,803
Far from the noise and pace of city life
in the clear air of Rishikesh, North India
333
00:44:12,967 --> 00:44:17,165
Pathe News reports from the meditation
retreat of Maharishi Mahesh Yogi
334
00:44:17,287 --> 00:44:19,482
The man who through
transcendental meditation
335
00:44:19,647 --> 00:44:22,719
is currently bringing
peace of mind to the Beatles
336
00:44:23,007 --> 00:44:27,319
Rishikesh is an incredible place
337
00:44:28,727 --> 00:44:34,996
99o/o of the population
are all renunciants
338
00:44:36,367 --> 00:44:39,643
It's right in the foothills
of the Himalayas
339
00:44:39,767 --> 00:44:43,760
It's where the Ganges
flows out of the Himalayas
340
00:44:43,887 --> 00:44:48,642
into the plains of Kurekchetra
between Delhi and the Himalayas
341
00:44:49,087 --> 00:44:54,081
We were away from everything.
It was like a recluse holiday camp
342
00:44:55,207 --> 00:44:58,199
right at the foot of the Himalayas
343
00:44:58,367 --> 00:45:02,440
It's like a mountain, but it's
the foothills, hanging over the Ganges
344
00:47:06,367 --> 00:47:11,043
It was pretty exciting,
we were in this really spiritual place
345
00:47:11,167 --> 00:47:14,079
We were meditating a lot
346
00:47:14,207 --> 00:47:17,563
We were having seminars by Maharishi
347
00:47:18,767 --> 00:47:21,645
It was pretty far out
348
00:47:23,527 --> 00:47:25,836
It was very much like
a summer camp
349
00:47:25,967 --> 00:47:31,439
You would get up in the morning,
go down to a communal breakfast
350
00:47:31,727 --> 00:47:36,118
The food was veggie, which is
good for me now, but thinking back...
351
00:47:36,247 --> 00:47:40,001
I was still meat-eating then, so it was
all right, it was curries and stuff
352
00:47:40,487 --> 00:47:43,604
The food was impossible for me
353
00:47:43,727 --> 00:47:47,402
I'm allergic to so many things
354
00:47:47,527 --> 00:47:52,999
I took two suitcases, one of clothes
and one of Heinz beans!
355
00:47:53,527 --> 00:47:58,237
We sat in the mountains
eating lousy vegetarian food
356
00:47:58,407 --> 00:48:01,683
and writing all those songs -
we wrote tons of songs in India
357
00:48:02,087 --> 00:48:06,160
Dear Prudence certainly got written
there. Mia Farrow's sister was...
358
00:48:06,287 --> 00:48:10,758
She sort of hibernated and meditated
359
00:48:10,887 --> 00:48:14,357
We saw her I think twice
in the two weeks I was there
360
00:48:14,487 --> 00:48:17,559
Everyone would be banging
on the door, "You still alive?"
361
00:48:57,807 --> 00:49:03,325
Donovan was there and I remember
I had a song called I Will
362
00:49:42,567 --> 00:49:46,037
Do you remember a film show
in the village?
363
00:49:46,567 --> 00:49:49,365
What was that?
- Did you write anything, George?
364
00:49:49,607 --> 00:49:52,883
Obviously not
- I wrote Sour Milk Sea
365
00:49:53,007 --> 00:49:57,876
I wrote a number of songs which
I never recorded. I wrote Dera Dhun
366
00:49:58,007 --> 00:49:59,998
Why don't you play it
for us, George?
367
00:50:01,167 --> 00:50:02,964
I don't know if I know it
368
00:50:28,127 --> 00:50:29,924
Something like that
369
00:50:30,047 --> 00:50:35,679
There were lots of things the Maharishi
had said-like that song C'mon c'mon -
370
00:50:35,807 --> 00:50:38,480
C'mon it's such a joy
371
00:50:38,607 --> 00:50:41,599
Everybody's got something to hideexcept for me and my monkey
372
00:50:42,247 --> 00:50:47,401
Apart from the bit about the monkey,
that was just what Maharishi used to say
373
00:51:14,567 --> 00:51:20,437
A helicopter landed by the banks
of the Ganges in Rishikesh
374
00:51:20,567 --> 00:51:24,765
"One of you can go up for a ride
with Maharishi, who's it going to be?"
375
00:51:24,887 --> 00:51:28,323
"Me sir, me sir, sir, sir"
and of course it was John
376
00:51:28,447 --> 00:51:33,885
John was good at that,
so it got to be him anyway
377
00:51:34,527 --> 00:51:38,202
Later I asked "Why were you so
keen to get up with Maharishi?"
378
00:51:38,327 --> 00:51:44,038
"To tell you the truth, I thought he
might slip me the answer." Very John!
379
00:51:51,127 --> 00:51:56,520
I gave myself a set period, then if it
was something we had to go back for
380
00:51:56,647 --> 00:51:59,115
I was thinking of going back
381
00:51:59,247 --> 00:52:03,798
But at the end of my month I thought,
this'll do me
382
00:52:03,927 --> 00:52:09,524
If I want to get into it heavy, I can do it
anywhere-you don't need a church
383
00:52:09,687 --> 00:52:14,681
I didn't come back with the others,
anyway - I don't recall
384
00:52:14,807 --> 00:52:18,482
Ringo probably came back quickly
385
00:52:18,607 --> 00:52:24,284
He went for a couple of weeks to put his
toe in the water and see what it was like
386
00:52:24,887 --> 00:52:28,323
And Paul just came and went
387
00:52:28,607 --> 00:52:33,727
George and I were there four months.
We lost 13 pounds and looked a day older
388
00:52:34,887 --> 00:52:39,802
Do you think this man's on the level?
- I don't know what level he's on
389
00:52:39,927 --> 00:52:44,682
But we had a holiday in India and have
come back rested to play businessmen
390
00:52:52,527 --> 00:52:56,202
Whose idea was Apple? I don't know
391
00:52:56,327 --> 00:53:00,878
It was around, I think, before Brian died
392
00:53:01,007 --> 00:53:04,477
I think Apple was the accountants' idea
393
00:53:04,607 --> 00:53:07,724
"You must diversify"
394
00:53:07,887 --> 00:53:13,280
The big theory was
to put all our affairs into one bundle
395
00:53:13,607 --> 00:53:18,317
We'd have our own company Apple,
a record label, all we'd ever wanted to do
396
00:53:18,687 --> 00:53:23,966
They all rang from England
one morning
397
00:53:24,087 --> 00:53:27,124
and said we're starting
this company, Apple
398
00:53:27,247 --> 00:53:31,763
so we upped and went to live in Surrey
399
00:53:31,887 --> 00:53:35,277
and I became Apple Press Officer
400
00:53:35,527 --> 00:53:38,803
The sole purpose of Apple
401
00:53:39,007 --> 00:53:42,636
was so people didn't have to beg
any more-artistes
402
00:53:42,767 --> 00:53:46,237
If they had a valid idea
we would front them
403
00:53:47,127 --> 00:53:50,881
We had a publishing company,
a record company
404
00:53:51,007 --> 00:53:56,639
We should have had a big sign:
You don't have to beg
405
00:53:56,807 --> 00:53:59,765
The idea was we'd go to America
and we'd say:
406
00:53:59,887 --> 00:54:03,880
"Apple is starting -
send us your huddled talent...
407
00:54:04,007 --> 00:54:09,035
"we're interested."
So we wanted a nice big launch
408
00:54:09,167 --> 00:54:13,080
I had a strange feeling,
I was very nervous
409
00:54:13,207 --> 00:54:16,756
I had a real sort of personal
paranoia on me
410
00:54:16,887 --> 00:54:21,039
I don't know if it was what I was
smoking then, but it was very strange
411
00:54:21,167 --> 00:54:24,955
I remember being interviewed
and John was doing great
412
00:54:25,087 --> 00:54:29,080
He was wearing a bus driver
or prefect badge
413
00:54:29,207 --> 00:54:31,641
"What's that mean?"
414
00:54:32,007 --> 00:54:35,636
Mr Lennon, can you tell us
what it is you're wearing?
415
00:54:35,767 --> 00:54:41,239
It's just a white button
and that's 'bus prefect'
416
00:54:41,367 --> 00:54:44,006
And that's what?
- Bus prefect
417
00:54:44,127 --> 00:54:45,640
He's in charge of a bus
418
00:54:46,007 --> 00:54:50,000
They went on the Johnny Carson Show
but Johnny Carson wasn't there
419
00:54:50,127 --> 00:54:54,803
Joe di Maggio, I think, was the guy
420
00:54:54,927 --> 00:54:58,476
Because Johnny was on holiday
421
00:54:59,567 --> 00:55:03,845
It was one of the things
that John said on that show:
422
00:55:03,967 --> 00:55:07,437
"We'll just spin it like a top
and see where it goes"
423
00:55:08,127 --> 00:55:10,595
What do you see in the years ahead?
424
00:55:12,887 --> 00:55:16,357
Apple... we'll try and set it up
and then see where it goes
425
00:55:16,487 --> 00:55:20,366
It's like a top. We'll set it going
and hope for the best
426
00:55:20,767 --> 00:55:24,362
That was pretty much
what happened actually
427
00:55:24,647 --> 00:55:29,277
We had some ideas...
Wouldn't it be nice if...
428
00:55:29,407 --> 00:55:32,922
because we got screwed in business
all the time
429
00:55:33,047 --> 00:55:37,006
You know how you have to go down
on your knees. John famously said:
430
00:55:37,127 --> 00:55:40,483
"We don't want people
to have to go down on their knees"
431
00:55:40,887 --> 00:55:45,677
It's a business concerning records,
films and electronics...
432
00:55:46,207 --> 00:55:49,597
Apple Press Conference
New York 14th May 1968
433
00:55:50,287 --> 00:55:55,566
But we want to set up a system
whereby people who want to make a film
434
00:55:55,687 --> 00:55:59,919
don't have to go on their knees
in somebody's office-probably yours
435
00:56:00,167 --> 00:56:04,638
Well, we did this mad thing
436
00:56:04,767 --> 00:56:08,555
Maybe put an ad in the paper, saying:
437
00:56:08,687 --> 00:56:15,035
"Send us your tapes and they will
not be thrown away. We will answer"
438
00:56:15,167 --> 00:56:22,039
We were just inundated with tapes
and poetry and scripts
439
00:56:23,327 --> 00:56:28,276
I don't think we got any bands
or any artistes by that method
440
00:56:28,647 --> 00:56:31,286
We never really got much
from the tapes sent in
441
00:56:31,407 --> 00:56:36,481
but people knew we were interested -
Peter Asher brought along James Taylor
442
00:56:36,967 --> 00:56:42,485
Derek Taylor
Apple Press Officer
When I started at Apple in April '68,
James Taylor was already there
443
00:56:42,927 --> 00:56:46,283
He was in the office
with Paul and Peter Asher
444
00:56:46,687 --> 00:56:49,918
Mary Hopkin was the main thing,
you know
445
00:56:50,247 --> 00:56:53,205
I didn't bring her,
she was on a talent show
446
00:56:53,487 --> 00:56:58,880
Mary Hopkin came from the Hughie Green...
whatever his show was called
447
00:56:59,207 --> 00:57:00,196
Opportunity Knocks!
448
00:57:00,647 --> 00:57:05,880
I think Mal Evans found Badfinger,
who were called the lveys at the time
449
00:57:06,407 --> 00:57:09,797
Badfinger I thought came through Paul
450
00:57:09,967 --> 00:57:14,597
And I produced Doris Troy
and a record by Jackie Lomax
451
00:57:22,567 --> 00:57:25,035
Jackie Lomax
452
00:57:33,487 --> 00:57:35,955
James Taylor
453
00:57:54,447 --> 00:57:56,915
The lveys
454
00:58:22,607 --> 00:58:25,075
Badfinger
455
00:58:33,687 --> 00:58:36,155
Mary Hopkin
456
00:58:54,327 --> 00:58:59,321
Anyone was welcome to show up
and produce as much as he wanted
457
00:58:59,447 --> 00:59:02,644
But people didn't do the same
amount of work
458
00:59:02,767 --> 00:59:06,555
I lived in London, I was there more
459
00:59:06,687 --> 00:59:11,317
so I probably did a bit more
production than Ringo
460
00:59:11,447 --> 00:59:13,483
I'm not sure what Ringo did
461
00:59:13,727 --> 00:59:16,639
I wasn't as involved as the others
462
00:59:18,047 --> 00:59:21,005
It was fun. We'd go in
463
00:59:21,127 --> 00:59:24,403
A lot of what it did
related to the four of us
464
00:59:24,887 --> 00:59:27,117
John wanted to do stuff like Zapple
465
00:59:27,247 --> 00:59:30,444
He wanted a funky label
that he'd do crazy stuff on
466
00:59:30,567 --> 00:59:34,162
so that became his area,
which was quite nice
467
00:59:34,327 --> 00:59:40,004
Maybe it was exciting for everybody
else and for people from outside
468
00:59:40,127 --> 00:59:46,760
For me, it was a lot of hard work
setting it up and a lot of chaos
469
00:59:46,927 --> 00:59:49,157
I was still in India when it started
470
00:59:49,287 --> 00:59:53,838
I think it was basically
John and Paul's...
471
00:59:53,967 --> 00:59:58,165
madness, ego running away
with themselves or with each other
472
00:59:58,327 --> 01:00:02,320
It's just trying to mix business
with enjoyment
473
01:00:02,567 --> 01:00:05,798
We find ourselves in business
474
01:00:05,927 --> 01:00:08,236
Are you the directors of this?
475
01:00:08,367 --> 01:00:11,996
Yeah, but all the profits
won't go into our pockets
476
01:00:12,127 --> 01:00:15,164
They'll go to help people
but not like a charity
477
01:00:15,447 --> 01:00:18,837
We were just guys goofing off,
having a lot of fun
478
01:00:18,967 --> 01:00:23,677
Trying to get things under our control,
which a lot of people do now
479
01:00:23,807 --> 01:00:28,881
They have their own companies,
take lawyers to meetings, get good deals
480
01:00:29,007 --> 01:00:32,522
It was the start of all that
but a pretty haphazard start
481
01:00:33,127 --> 01:00:36,483
We had a lot of ideas of we could do this
and we could do that
482
01:00:36,607 --> 01:00:38,882
But when it came down to it really
483
01:00:39,007 --> 01:00:44,400
all we could do was write songs,
make records and be Beatles -
484
01:00:44,527 --> 01:00:45,926
successfully
485
01:03:16,247 --> 01:03:17,919
or maybe twice
486
01:03:18,047 --> 01:03:23,838
there was an unearthly paradise
called Pepper Land
487
01:04:02,047 --> 01:04:05,357
The first thing when we heard
they were going to do a cartoon
488
01:04:05,487 --> 01:04:10,242
about a man who sailed to sea
and went to the land of submarines...
489
01:04:10,367 --> 01:04:14,155
Go down under the water, see these things,
meet all the people living there
490
01:04:14,287 --> 01:04:17,677
But we were into psychedelic stuff
with Pepper
491
01:04:17,807 --> 01:04:20,958
and they wanted more
of that kind of stuff
492
01:04:21,087 --> 01:04:26,081
It was up to them and we went along with
that and they had the 'sea of holes'...
493
01:04:26,207 --> 01:04:30,644
I think seeing it now it's pretty good,
quite interesting really
494
01:04:31,607 --> 01:04:34,360
Yeah, I liked the film.
I think it's a classic film
495
01:04:34,487 --> 01:04:39,959
We never did our own voices
but probably the actors were better
496
01:04:40,087 --> 01:04:45,844
You needed to be more cartoon-like,
our voices were pretty cartoon-like anyway
497
01:04:45,967 --> 01:04:50,961
But the exaggeration
with the actors' voices
498
01:04:51,087 --> 01:04:52,884
I think it suits it
499
01:04:53,207 --> 01:04:59,123
That's where all of that stuff came from...
that terrible fake Liverpool accent
500
01:05:00,087 --> 01:05:02,647
They do look very nice, don't they?
- Yes, they do
501
01:05:02,767 --> 01:05:04,962
They do though, don't they?
- Yes, they do
502
01:05:10,487 --> 01:05:13,001
What's the matter fellas?
Blue meanies?
503
01:05:13,527 --> 01:05:16,758
The thing with that film
that still blows me away...
504
01:05:16,887 --> 01:05:21,438
was all the kids coming up to me,
saying "Why did you press the button?"
505
01:05:22,367 --> 01:05:24,756
As you know, I pressed
that button to get shot out
506
01:05:24,887 --> 01:05:29,119
Kids from all over the bloody world
shouting "Why did you press the button?"
507
01:05:29,447 --> 01:05:32,644
Don't touch that button
- Which button?
508
01:05:38,567 --> 01:05:40,558
That was the panic button
509
01:05:43,527 --> 01:05:46,837
The film does go for every generation
510
01:05:46,967 --> 01:05:52,883
Every four-year-old goes through
Yellow Submarine
511
01:05:53,447 --> 01:05:57,725
Hey! Look at John, will yer
- What's the matter? Blue meanies?
512
01:05:57,847 --> 01:06:02,967
Newer and bluer meanies have been
sighted. There's only one way out
513
01:06:03,087 --> 01:06:04,406
How's that?
- Singing!
514
01:06:04,567 --> 01:06:06,523
One... two... three... four...
515
01:08:01,047 --> 01:08:05,165
Yoko was having an art show
in London at the Indica Gallery
516
01:08:05,287 --> 01:08:08,359
I heard this was going to be a happening
so I went the night before the opening
517
01:08:08,487 --> 01:08:12,844
The first thing as you went into the gallery
was a white step-ladder
518
01:08:12,967 --> 01:08:17,119
and a painting on the ceiling
and a spy-glass hanging down
519
01:08:17,247 --> 01:08:23,322
I went up the ladder, picked up the
spy-glass. In teeny writing it said YES
520
01:08:23,447 --> 01:08:27,201
If it had said NO
or something nasty...
521
01:08:27,687 --> 01:08:31,600
like rip-off or whatever,
I would have left the gallery
522
01:08:31,727 --> 01:08:37,199
Because it said YES, I thought it's the first
show that said something warm to me
523
01:08:37,327 --> 01:08:40,364
So I decided to see the rest of the show
and that's when we met
524
01:08:50,087 --> 01:08:55,844
The naked album cover
was less general than that
525
01:08:55,967 --> 01:08:59,755
Meaning that was one
of the first things we did
526
01:09:00,647 --> 01:09:04,845
We felt like two virgins,
that's what the album was called
527
01:09:04,967 --> 01:09:09,757
We were in love, just met and we
were trying to make something
528
01:09:10,607 --> 01:09:12,962
He showed me this cover
529
01:09:13,087 --> 01:09:16,284
and I pointed to The Times
530
01:09:16,407 --> 01:09:21,686
"Oh, you've even got The Times in it,"
like his dick wasn't out, you know
531
01:09:23,327 --> 01:09:27,320
I said "Come on, John,
you're doing all this stuff
532
01:09:27,447 --> 01:09:32,123
"It may be cool for you but you
know we have to answer
533
01:09:32,247 --> 01:09:37,162
"It doesn't matter which one of us does
something, we all have to answer for it"
534
01:09:37,287 --> 01:09:42,156
He says "You only have to answer
the phone" so "OK, fine"
535
01:09:42,407 --> 01:09:45,638
From that point on
536
01:09:45,767 --> 01:09:48,918
they were never to be seen
without each other
537
01:09:49,047 --> 01:09:52,244
for the next few years at least
538
01:09:52,967 --> 01:09:58,963
The trouble was for us it encroached
on our framework that we had going
539
01:09:59,087 --> 01:10:02,079
Basically it had only ever been
the four of us in the studio
540
01:10:02,207 --> 01:10:05,483
maybe with Neil and Mal
as the two roadies
541
01:10:05,607 --> 01:10:11,398
or George Martin up in the control room
or an engineer to fix a mike
542
01:10:11,527 --> 01:10:15,202
But in our whole recording career
that had been the setup
543
01:10:15,767 --> 01:10:19,760
I used to ask John,
"What's this about?
544
01:10:21,047 --> 01:10:25,120
"What is happening here?
Yoko's at all the sessions"
545
01:10:25,247 --> 01:10:28,637
He told me straight:
"When you go home to Maureen
546
01:10:28,767 --> 01:10:34,160
"and tell her how your day was, it's
'Well, we had a good day in the studio"'
547
01:10:34,287 --> 01:10:37,324
And he says, "Well, we know
exactly what's going on"
548
01:10:37,447 --> 01:10:40,996
That's how they started to live -
every moment together
549
01:10:41,647 --> 01:10:46,198
Everybody seemed paranoid
except for us two in the glow of love
550
01:10:46,367 --> 01:10:50,121
Everything's clear when you're in love
and everybody was tense around us
551
01:10:50,287 --> 01:10:54,041
What is she doing here at the session,
or why is she with him?
552
01:10:54,207 --> 01:11:00,646
All this madness because we wanted
to be together all the time
553
01:13:15,007 --> 01:13:17,601
