Let it Be & Get Back - Film Analysis: Part 1 of 3 

Excellent. Perfect day to release Part 1, as well! I know it's been quite the task for you to sit through. Thanks for doing the hard work (as always) !!❤

Love your videos - so intelligent, so well done, and you have a beautiful voice. Excellent.

Making them play Maxwell's Silver Hammer is a kind of abusive mind control technique.

On George's diary entry (47.30) there is a redacted line under the first one that says something like "without Paul the ******(illegible)"

My aunt, who was the head of the Fordham Music Department many decades ago, used to give me piano lessons (classical) so, I too, have the background and ear to recognize playing styles. I knew right away the piano tracks that were attributed to bio Paul were played by someone else. Also the vocals on Penny Lane and Lady Madonna did not resonate at all with me.

I enjoyed this video so very much, it's really very interesting that they talked about this TV show about a person's soul in a younger person's body...and awesome you found out the original conversation they put in a different scene... So it's manipulated as well.. and Billy being the Boss...and the entire chemistry between the 4 Beatles so very different than the chemistry before the end of 1966, looking forward to watch the upcoming parts 🎉❤

Wow - thank you so much for this! This adds so much to what has been already offered. Great insights! I would like to comment on Billy's "Remember the days when we used to rock?". I have to say that this has very much darkened my view of him ( it was just a bit shaded prior). Since we know they never played together live this is a clearly nasty and degrading comment - a direct mocking of the band. How would the other 3 receive this question? It would clearly be "wow - you are such an _______". It is so loaded as it refers back to when Paul was alive. It's as if he is saying - "he is gone, I am him, and there is nothing you can do about it - oh and you guys stink".. Cheers!

Although I never came close to being a professional musician, I can personally attest to the regular habit of parking my lit cigarette on a protruding guitar string up at the tuning keys, from 1969 to 1973 when I quit smoking. It didn't work so well for non-filters like camel or lucky strike. It was a sign of serious engagement with the music, akin to the phrase ' Hold my beer, I got this...'.

The smoking behavior in Canada at the time was the same. Everybody smoked everywhere. I remember men who fought in WW II and Korea and if you told them to put out their cigarette you would have ended up dealing with a madman storming the beaches of Normandy. You would have heard an emphatic speech about how he fought...to tell him what to do. They would have taken a big drag on their cigarette and blown the smoke into your face.

Putting your cigarette with a strong end spiking the filter or between two strings at the nut was standard procedure for me and many others. It’s quite natural. This was in the seventies and eighties.

Oh this is going to be good! Edit: and it was!

52:00.

Yes the size difference between Billy and John is clear in that shot. A good way to show someone the difference in height is to tell them to watch the 'I Feel Fine' video -- you can see George; Paul and John were the same height, and build. As they stand in a line. (Then watch Revolution or Don't Let Me Down immediately after...)

37:50 More George songs on the album would have meant less John/Billy songs and, thus, more money flows to the junior partner rather than the senior partners of the group in the form of songwriting/publishing. At least that's what I've heard. In other words, greed.

Fantastic job! I absolutely love your examination and observations about this material A great continuation of your collection of work!

I can't watch Get Back! I just don't want to be manipulated any more. I don't trust it. Not any of it. It's the same with The BBC or The Sunday Papers I am sick and tired of their petty little psychological games. Surely I can't be the only one.

Thank you for another excellent look at the "truth". The Beatles always seemed so unfathomable until you put it into proper perspective. Why did they waste so much time doing silly songs instead of working on their new songs? That's not the way it's done. You go into the studio to record songs you've already hammered out at home. "Let It Be" was The Beatles trying to live up to their own hype: but they weren't really that gifted with sudden genius. In the early days they were a cover band that worked hard to put together long sets. Once Billy showed up after Paul's death they were obviously done with the pretense. "We weren't really that good." as George said. They conceitedly thought they had matured to match their myth, but they hadn't. The corpse of Paul haunted them and made Billy try to make up for it by being the "music teacher" to the other three Liverpool scrubs. The threetles resented this "Billy come lately" because he had not paid the dues the original Beatles paid to make it.

Thanks for this. I was in grade 4 or 5 when I got my copy of the Let it Be record. It was immediately my favorite Beatles album. They looked like "real rock stars" instead of the goofy cartoon characters that I'd been listening to. I'd grown up on the American releases, "With the Beatles, The Beatles' Second Album and Something New".My older brother passed them down to me as he had "graduated" to Steppenwolf and Hendrix and such. lol Thanks, again.

I wonder if Pink Floyd got inspiration to go to POMPEII from watching LIB.

A lot of this is absolutely chilling. I disagree with a fair amount of your speculation (and would love to discuss this with you, though I'm no expert) but what you've highlighted speaks for itself imho. Well done.

Really enjoyed this . Looking forward to the next parts

Well done. Another fascinating podcast. Extremely informative and interesting. My belief is that there were multiple Beatle players within the psyop and whilst there’s no doubt in my mind on Paul/Billy, I also note John circa early period to 1966 compared with Pepper onwards. Whilst you discuss height and build comparing Paul and Billy, it is my view that John also changed dramatically in build and appearance, even personality. From memory, the official narrative cited drug use as the main reason for his dramatic weight loss, that rings alarm bells to me. Early John was stocky, later John slight as a basic comparison. In Magical Mystery Tour, it is my opinion that both John’s appear, compare John’s Walrus segment to the coach/ strip club John. Wondered whether you had compared early to late Beatles in the same way as you have with Paul? Perhaps he didn’t die but merely was replaced? Perhaps they were all replaced at some point? Wouldn’t it be quite incredible if the originals made a reappearance at some point. After all there is a growing expectation with a number of other entertainers from The film and music industry, we shall see.

Excellent video and breakdown! I can’t wait for the 2nd and 3rd parts. An odd, probably nothing moment stuck out to me for some reason, @ 46:38, I couldn’t help notice how Maureen’s eye makeup looks very similar to the way Ringo’s eyes were drawn in Yellow Submarine. Just a lame observation 😅

15:41 Ringo shadow hand over Billy's head

Theres something in your voice that gives over a felling of authority yet sensitive with confidence. Maybe its in your ability to teach that this comes from . I just needed to say that theres a confidence and authority in your work and its very refreshing to be spoken to and not at

42:42 i thought at this part you could see how afraid billy was of working with mal here as he doesn't want anyone to know how much mal must have helped him write songs in the past. As a songwriter my self i can see it here in bills face and mal knows it to. Thats why he comes up and offers to help to show he does this regularly to have it on film that he does help bill. But billy really cuts it off and doesn't let him really help

I wonder what really happened to make George come back after he left

Bravo, great presentation

Yes paul is a very accomplished pianist isnt he your right, its right there to see isn't it.

Alexis Mardas = Sad Ram Six El A

Interesting analysis. The original “Let it Be” documentary showed how impossible it was for The Beatles, in 19to write a full album’s-worth of songs from scratch

So happy to see this new video posted! I am watching it now🎉

Hi Kat… first part watched…you touched one a few topics that I all ways wondered about… treatment of George went he left the band and when he had to loan out equipment!!!Fine Exposé.

What a fantastic video have you enjoyed playing RU-vid videos have a wonderful day ❤😊

Fantastic as usual 🙂 I could watch content delving into the absolutely astounding levels of transparent hogwash in 'get back' all day. The faces masked in shadow one second then lit the next to insert parts of conversations that presumably never happened. The fake close ups of lyrics or something someone is reading, like in the example you showed. Although the bits of truth that keep bubbling to the surface as you put it were worth something at least. Can't wait for the follow ups 👍👍👍 You're terrific ❤️

34:18 Billy is so much bigger than George in the photo on the left--and it looks like he is standing further back than George too!

Magic alex recked the apple studio! And tgey had to get that crap out of there. A d tgey didn't want to go to abbey road for that venture as they wanted to use that room. George had a good tape machine he recorded his incredible first album on it.

Peter Jackson didn't want to use any of the material from the original he said . I'm not sure if he stuck to that?

Enjoyed act 1 looking forward to act 2 🎉

Cat, Your most keen insights of this subject are very much appreciated. Though far below the pinnacle of your knowledge, I too am fascinated by the Beatles conspiracy, by the replacement of Paul 1.0, by the dozen or so suspicious deaths surrounding the Beatles, and by the tellingly sad faces of Lennon and Harrison beginning in 1967. My highest compliments to you on your excellent presentation here and in your other videos. Truly you bring a level of nuance to the topic that is most unusual and remarkable. Not only do you have expertise to share, but your superb delivery of the narration makes it a pleasure to listen. Looking forward to parts 2 & 3. A most sincere thank you!

Thank you for your work. Could listen to you for hours!

Very enjoyable, you have a keen eye for detail and I find myself agreeing.

Outstanding analysis! I always thought it was odd Paul would refer to Brian Epstein as Mr. Epstein. After all those years together, sounds a bit in personable. Also Paul in the orange and John wearing purple, not by accident. Looingk forward to part 2&3.

You are so talented in your research and presentation. I am always excited to see your work. I remember when the White Album came out and I thought it was awful! I saw the original film in the theater and I thought I had wasted my money because it was dreadful. As a side note, Michael Lindsay Hogg is the illegitimate śon of Orson Wells.

Fascinating, thank you.

Great video. But do you think that George Harrison actually composed those songs, e.g. For You Blue, I Me Mine, All Things Must Pass? Or was he given material like the others by professional songwriters?

The thing about all the grand ideas for a final show is that it is etched into history through repetition and hindsight. Firstly, The band all agreed to do a show, but were all unsure where. The band spent weeks on this project, but conversations endure. So a passing fancy, such as playing on Everest, or ships that cropped up as ideas suddenly become canon, but none of these ideas were seriously explored, they were stoned notions. The Amphitheatre idea was not a Beatles idea, it was the director trying to come up with good footage. They did not like it. Ringo was limited to a UK performance in any case as he had a movie to shoot. He was not going to trek up a mountainside with poor Mal behind like a pack horse ferrying his drum kit to an altitude of 20,000 feet. Besides. If you want to sing of love, everybody knows, you shout it from the rooftops! Great channel though. Also, Get Back was not given the title because of a return to live performance on stage, but to the way they used to record without trickery and overdubs. What I still don't understand is why none of this footage was filmed at EMI. If the idea was to revisit their roots, why choose a unfamiliar place before heading to a new build studio that was not fit for purpose? Why borrow a mixer from Abbey Road when they could have gone there? That to me is a more pertinent question as to why they did not perform live in North Africa.

You have over looked the fact that during rehearsals of 'Across the universe' the scene opens with the recorded version on already pressed vinyl🍏🍏🍏🍏🍏🍏 is used to relearn the song!

16mm was film-negative

Beautiful work again, very well researched and presented. You're exceptional.

The 100 songs before they were famous is like every upcoming songwriter in there rooms writing either alone or with a another person which is very helpful if they glue together and have chemistry and John and Paul had chemistry as we are here talking about this .. they didn't say they were all good. Ha. It will be around 100. John and Paul like all good musicians and bad ones lie. There story tellers

As far as the whole view of some "Beatles conspiracy" channels, get back really burst the myth some people think would never be burst that the Beatles were incredible out of this world geniuses they were incredibly wonderful creatives I believe and wanted to burst the bubble. So get back really for me showed that some people's whole online catalogue of there not writing any of the songs etc and are surrounded by session musicians who play everything and they just sing got kinda rubbished! As they did it all on there own with team they had.. Get back is a representative of the creative process in a band obviously the Beatles have an incredible budget that they can like other bands who also have that get people in like strings etc. Yes Billy is definitely Paul . But they wrote the songs and obviously were helped as every signed band does I know this from experience in

ru-vid.comk1s3Wmh10Cw?si=W89Mb9bqlxxKIony What's your thoughts on this small clip of john explaining how he wrote please please me.. your someone who has a strong intuition and im sure it aids your magical workings and tarot etc . I feel he's telling the truth here. Its a pretty simple song.. i know we agree that they most definitely wrote later songs . I think they were put threw an initiation into a certain order, and then rituals and were heavily worked on. john and Paul were singled out as having the most potent chart. Potentially also went through rituals to have a strong glamour and creative spart.. certain rituals can change your fate and i feel they definitely went through this .. of course i cannot claim this as fact but seeing the outcome of there impact on the world and being a practitioner my self and having a reasonable amount of knowledge and hours of practice i know that it can if you have the talent and abilities be used to Great effect
