and important to see how a situation like that can break a man mentally, but it shouldn't. If he was the drummer in Hermin's Hermits before they blew up, he would have been pissed for a few years and then gotten over it. But to almost be a Beatle and get canned just before they get big must be mind blowing difficult. The mental gymnastics you have to play to not let it crush you, I can't even imagine.

Was Pete in the footage? I think I saw it, it was definitely in the Pete era as the 3 guitarists were in their leathers. But even though the camera panned a bit left and right across the stage, I never saw Pete (or any other drummer). Is that the footage?

@justinherbert9146 Месяц назад

@@Cosmo-Kramer Go to the NOW AND THEN video on youtube and look for it - they are in black leather attire performing - the thing is is that Pete had the footage and had not sold it or offered it elsewhere prior - but he did give it to Peter Jackson for what will be the last Beatles song ever recorded. Pete is a good, kind man.

@@justinherbert9146 Yes, I've seen that. I've even seen a much longer clip of it. But Pete (indeed, no drummer) was in either the short clip in music video, or the longer version I saw elsewhere in YT. I wonder if Pete was edited out of it, which I would sortof kindof get for the music video. But why he is not in the longer version I saw is baffling. Particularly since you say it was Pete who possessed it all these years. Pete was their only drummer when they wore leathers, so he was indeed the drummer when that footage was shot. I just don't know why he's not shown. Strange.

@@Cosmo-Kramer Pete was not within the frame of the camera when filmed - if there is a photo from that performance perhaps we could determine where Pete was positioned - was he behind Paul and John or was his kit to the side of them - regardless he cannot be seen in the longer clip neither - if he was within the frame of the footage that exists i believe Peter Jackson would have included Pete in the music video because Jackson has respect for history

Pete has always come across as a laid back and cool guy. I have Beatles bootlegs with his playing and it’s raw and rough, and completely rock’n’roll. It’s his heavy bass drum style of playing that made the pun of their name actually work. His book is out of print and expensive now.

@@D800Lover You heard wrong. By law, Pete had to be paid for any published songs on which he played. Paul had zero power over that. And before you turn around and say, *"Oh, well, Paul didn't have to include any songs with Pete on them, but out of the goodness of his heart he did, to make things right with his old bandmate,"* that is false, because the whole purpose of the Anthology project was to publish the earliest Beatles recordings, most of which featured their original drummer, Pete. Sure, Paul could've denied Pete that payday, but in order to do so Paul would have had to put the kibash on the entire Anthology project, which would've denied Paul WAY more $$$ than Pete would've lost out on. Furthermore, don't try that other BS portion of the Paul-Fanboy narrative, that Paul called Pete with the news of Pete's payday, because he did not, Neil Aspinall did. Paul has still never spoken to Pete since the night before he was sacked in 1962, and Paul had zero to do with Pete getting paid for Anthology.

This is easily the best interview I've seen with Pete. Funnily enough, my Great Uncle had a similar story. He was a jockey in England during the 40's and 50's but only had moderate success due to his weight. When he was young, he was due to ride a very immature horse in the Derby called Pinza and was riding it in training every day. One morning the champion jockey of the day Sir Gordon Richards arrived at the stable to ride another much more fancied horse against my Uncle on Pinza and my Uncles horse flew past Sir Gordon's mount and won easily. Being the champion jockey, he asked my uncle the horses name and next thing you knew, Sir Gordon was riding it in the Derby and of course it won. My Uncle never really got over it and his career just drifted away. Had he won The Derby, he'd have had a very different life.

@paulnail7273 Месяц назад

But Pete was fired for a good reason. He was a mediocre drummer, neither great nor terrible, but was backing what were arguably the three best singer/songwriters in rock history. There was too much inequity in the group with Best. The Beatles were a notch or two better when backed by Ringo. Harrison was the first to feel it, but John & Paul quickly followed.

@paulnicosia8804 Месяц назад

Re:paulnail...Pete was not a mediocre drummer which was attested to by people in Liverpool at the time that they were together... Gerry Marsden and Bill Harry to name just two of many. He gave them their sound at that time and Liverpool drummers tried to emulate his style. They could have had any drummer they wanted at that time (except Hutch who didn't like them), and do you really think that they, as aspiring musicians and after the pivotal gig at Litherland Town Hall, would keep a mediocre drummer? They would have replaced him in a heart beat. In John Lennon's opinion the Beatles were at their Best at that time.

Pete Best appears to be a true rock n roll gentleman. A vital ingredient to the Beatles story, the Liverpool music scene and British music history. If he had said "No, forget it lads, I'm not going to Germany", where would we be now? Watch the "Some Other Guy" footage from The Cavern Club in 1962 (with Ringo). After the song people in the audience can be heard shouting "We want Pete." It just shows how much respect people had for him at that time. That respect is still as strong now. Pete 'The Beat' Best.

No one on this planet can imagine what it must have been like for this man having to watch how the Beatles became what they became. His work with them was an important contribution to the foundation on which the success was even possible. A lesser man wouldn‘t have survived this. Respect !!

Pete, you're a classy guy with integrity. All the best...no pun intended!

It is common for bands to change personnel...Pete happened to be one of those as was Shotton, Gary, Nichol etc. linked with The Beatles...I think he's handled it pretty well over the years...and from the interviews I've seen he's a really nice bloke you could spend time with

Best is still a Beatle.

Absolutely 💯! Only three 3️⃣ people living today can say they were Beatles and Pete Best is one of them.

Pete was born, Randolph Peter Scanland November 24, 1941 in Madras, British India. His biological father was marine engineer Donald Peter Scanland, who subsequently died during World War II. Best's mother was training to become a doctor in the service of the Red Cross when she met Johnny Best and they got married. Pete took his step dad's surname. During 1960, Neil Aspinall became good friends with the young Best and subsequently rented a room in the Bests' house. During one of the extended business trips of Best's stepfather, Aspinall became romantically involved with Mona and in 1962 a son, Vincent Roag Best, was born to Aspinall and Mona. Aspinall later became the Beatles' road manager and denied the story for years before publicly admitting that Roag Best was indeed his son.

I can't imagine what he went through after being fired from the Beatles. They had already paid their dues, and secured a record contract. Then to be let go, watch the others become the biggest celebrities the world has ever known, and create some of the most iconic songs & albums ever made!

BECAME one of the biggest bands in the World. They are the biggest band in the World

Pete Best has memories & can say with pride he was a Beatle, & that's a privilege only very few can say. Best has forever been immortalized after he, Ringo, & Paul are long gone from this big world. You've always been a TRUE gent Pete!

Peter, your life is as valuable as that of the Beatles 'who made it'. John would give everything to be in your shoes today. Many things are so relative. Playing the music you like under one bulb or ten thousand bulbs: in the end nobody cares. If you have nice family and friends: what more could you ask for? Love you, Dirk.
