The Beatles ain’t changing their image for anyone — not even Disney.
The British rock group teamed up with director Peter Jackson to release their long-awaited musical documentary, “Get Back,” now streaming on Disney+.
The series includes several scenes featuring smoking and explicit language; however, the group refused to have them removed.
The three-part show includes a disclaimer from the streamer ahead of each episode that reads: “This footage contains explicit language, mature themes and smoking.”

“That would be Mick Jagger and David Bowie. Sad. “
Was that real for them or entertainment for us?
Third one from left looks like Alice Cooper.
You could be right and the woman in the foreground appears to be in complete awe of the rock and roll talent that is surrounding her.
Mickey Dolens, I think!
They released the double White Album in November '68 and started the Let It Be sessions in January '69. They had been writing and recording together almost constantly since 1963.
In 1969 the Beatles had money and fame and all but Paul had tired of the whole game and, to some extent, each other. They didn't need or want to do it anymore.
Yoko was certainly bad news, but she didn't make John do anything he didn't want to do. He wanted out and used her as a wedge to do it. He didn't have the guts to break up the band himself. He knew much of the blame would be laid at her feet rather than his. She was a willing participant.
None of the Beatles knew how to read music.
SMOKING?!!!!
HEADS WILL ROLL!
How much footage would be left?
Oh isnt that rich? Disney, which has increasingly promoted every single left wing, anti-family, and decadent cause, now wants to be family friendly and decent. Whatever.
oh... No, None of the Beatles could read music that’s not how they conceptualized songs. The issue was as you said with John and Paul bouncing off each other and leaving George and Ringo to ponder their next moves. My point is that Paul and John wanted George to be Clapton. George could never be Clapton that wasn’t his thing. And frankly part of the magic of the Beatles was George and his genius riffs. So replacing Harrison with Clapton would have crushed the magic anyway.
Blue Jay Way, Within Without You, If I needed someone... All of these awe inspiring tunes that provided texture to the Beatles Albums. But they were so young. They were not even in their 30’s when all this went down. Bottom Line, they did great.
It’s there music that will last forever, not them as individuals. That’s what Lennon said
