I've watched some of the youtube videos of Ringo being interviewed with a set of drums and a small audience. Funny and enlightening. I'm not a musician, but it's fascinating to hear how his particular rhythm and style was formed because of his natural left hand playing on a right hand setup. And I never realised how many fantastic songs can be recognised just from a drum intro or beat.

I will always be grateful to Peter Jackson for having corrected this long-standing perpetuated myth that this was one of the darkest episodes of the Beatles legacy. Instead, it a glorious story of redemption by 4 truly remarkably talented men who genuinely loved each other. Jackson let the movie speak for itself and what you witness is an unsurmountable pressure they put upon themselves, and yet they emerged with some of the greatest songs ever created. The movie truly humanizes them and shows the staggering amount of work put into creating their magic. Along the way you get to know John, Paul, George and Ringo like never before as 4 completely natural and genuinely nice people. My respect for them only grew from this movie. I’m sadden that this has been hidden for this long and we have lost so many of them - Linda, Maureen, Billy, George Martin, Mal Evans and of course George and John. Thank you Peter for doing this.

John can come off as careless and arrogant, but he cares a great deal about the others, but because of who he is, it's not always obvious he does. George gains confidence after his temporary leave, knowing he gained back some control, and deciding that it's best to do his own thing for a bit. And Ringo is the true professional. Always attentive, instinctively knowing what to do and how to lighten the mood.

What about Love Me Do?

George was only 26 when the Beatles broke up. Take that in for a minute, how young he was coming up with all these brilliant ideas.

It really is though. It's amazing how willing he is to follow along, basically not saying anything for the whole documentary, just drumming. He was so invested in the music and allowing the band to figure it out. They'll play something at some random tempo, he'll come right in, and it doesn't speed up/slow down.

I was in a History of Rock in Roll class at Indiana University. Our Professor, Dr. Glenn Gass had Kenny Aronoff, who is most famous for playing drums with John Mellencamp but has played for many others including John Fogerty for many years come in to speak. During the question and answer period, he was asked about Ringo Starr. He had just come from playing with Jefferson Airplane in their somewhat aborted 1989 reunion tour. He said Ringo Starr showed up during one of the rehearsals so they canceled the rehearsal and jammed with Ringo for several hours. Aronoff said, "The beat was rock solid. It never moved from the time he sat down to the time he stood up. Ringo is by far the greatest 'time-keeper' in the history of Rock music."

They stuck with the “I don’t know”. Turned out to be the perfect lyric.

There is something so special about the chord changes and the rhythm that George pulled out to make this song, that everyone could tell really quickly that whatever that song was becoming it could very well be a big one.

John almost got it first try. 'Attracts me like a cauliflower' became 'Attracts me like no other lover' pretty close in sound! George was going in a completely different direction. John deserve some props haha.

It could have gone in many directions, and John's influence just made the sound of that lyric stick. Once it sticks, as a songwriter, it's hard to go on a different path, so George just had to find a lyric that matches. I love Something, but I don't like the line "like no other lover" is anything legendary or anything, but it does work well.

George already has ‘attracts me like a pomegranate’. Please don’t diminish his talent when he obviously wrote both the music and words. They worked as a group, collaboratively to reach their many many songs. George wrote lines for John’s songs, Paul’s songs and even Ringo’s meagre (allowed) contribution. Before anybody says anything, John was my favourite Beatle until the mid 1970’s It was then I realised, the 1960’s were a truly special time. The Beatles made magic happen (musically).

So happy for George to get the recognition for this beautiful piece.

The Beatles magic 🪄 right in front of you being played live. Amazing that he’s working out one of the greatest songs ever. And this film captures those moments forever. And I’m grateful for it! All Beatles fans should thank Peter Jackson for unearthing and releasing this for posterity. 👏🏻🎸😎

It's beautiful to see (AND HEAR!!) history being written like that

That’s what’s fascinating about this documentary. Hearing and seeing the birth of songs that everyone in the world has taken for granted for over 50 years. I find myself willing The Beatles on saying to myself “ You’re nearly there, you’re nearly there” it’s mesmerising!

My feelings are within two generations, the Beatles are going to be like nursery rhymes, taught like Mother Goose and Aesop to youngsters. At least, in my world they will.

John was a good lyricist. He perfectly suggest the word "cauliflower" to retain the intended rhyme. He was good in improvisation for words and he did it on majority of his songs, including "Dig a Pony". I bet it would be a beautiful song if he only had the inspiration needed for the words on that song.

It's a great way to keep your imagination going. A teacher told me once "when you're stuck writing, just repeat a random word or write nonsense until something sticks or something comes to mind". It keeps your mind going, keeps in the rythm. Quite literally in case of songwriting.

Their music writing and creation was a CONTINUOUS process. The yearly schedule of album releases artificiality have to impression that these were individual collections of songs. Even the concept albums had leftover songs that surfaced on later albums

This has been the most FASCINATING rock documentary I have ever seen. Thank you, Paul, Ringo, and Peter Jackson for doing this! ❤️

Dammit, Ringo just does everything right without a question being asked of them

What an evolution of musicians. Remember folks, these guys met while still in high school. Watch how easily Paul and George make their guitars sing. How John changed the melodies and Ringo taps at just the right time. Their's a reason these 4 were the greatest rock band in history. White Album was the best of all time.

Wow. Even in this raw practice run, the underlying beauty keeps bubbling to the surface.

This series was a raw look into the creative process and there has never been anything like it. If you're a student of music, this series is a must see.

Watching these clips, to my surprise, I have found a new favorite Beatle: George. His voice, his songs and, as a human, soulful and humble. There's no mocking sarcasm in his being, just a really cool spirit.

Quite possibly the greatest love song ever written...from one of the greatest albums in music history...with the most recognizable album cover ever conceived. Stunning.

To many of us, The Beatles are the only best friends we'll ever need or have.

Great to see George leading to way. He was such a fantastic song writer and musician

This is such a gift to all artists and creators. Watching these young geniuses create "Something" together makes me feel like I can do anything!

@@JA-io8nx The grain is what holds the detail of the image. You can't just remove it. Removing it is like removing pixels. You can only smooth over it creating an artificial looking image. This makes the Beatles look like characters from Polar Express. This was shot 50 years ago and it's a historical document, not everything needs to look like it was shot yesterday because it wasn't. You don't make the Mona Lisa look like it was a photograph shot yesterday, you preserve the way it once was.

The final version has the greatest guitar solo ever. Melodic, accurate and catchy! IMHO.

I absolutely love this series. In it, the Beatles are so timeless and so transparent and extraordinary. We will never pass this way again musically, which is why we have to hold onto these recordings.
