Weak tea laced with venomous words. 😒

Kind of amusing. But it doesn’t mean they weren’t a tight band. They were probably one of the most filmed bands in history, and when you get that much footage of a band there are bound to be a few bloopers. Especially considering the pressure they were under for these performances.

Anybody know who is narrating? Reminds me of Dick Cavett.

Loose microphone connections are an indication of poor musicianship? Maybe get some footage of them playing in Hamburg and then we’ll judge how tight they were.

I’m easily amused sometimes. I thought Paul singing away with his mike off was funny. I say that without a trace of venom.

It’s maybe not venomous but it is a bit passive aggressive, at least in the first minute: Were the Beatles tight or sloppy? Let’s answer that question in a negative way by looking at something that was the responsibility of other people!

They _were_ tight. You can tell by the way they just laughed off the flubs. The time in Hamburg was well spent.

Oh, I meant the maker of the video, not you.
