A one hour collection, of interviews with The Beatles. Part 1: • The Beatles // Intervi... ___________________________________________________ / mediacollectionyt
Yeah, leave it to John to come up with the smart, off-the-cuff, outside-the-box response to these types of questions. And then it was Dylan who really let The Press have it at his press conferences in the mid-'60s. He didn't go along with "the script,", and challenged them with very direct, real responses, even firing questions back at them. They weren't ready for this. Lennon, with his sense of humor, had fun with it.
@@bobriedinger5287 agree, yes! Dylan took it to a whole other level, but The Beatles were the first to change the way “entertainers” interacted with the press. Then they changed the nature of the relationship between audience and performer.
I think this is the best interview ever done by John. Tom Snyder always gave good interviews, he kept "silly" questions to a minimum and genuinely liked to know the people he talked with. I think there's a quote from John that this was indeed his favourite interview.
John was ALWAYS transparent, honest, humble, open, free-thinker, free-speaker, self-aware, clever, communicative. Yoko had absoultely no influence on him, but taking his own personality to the highest possible level.
@@robbedontuesday ahh, ok. I have over 60 yrs experience and I know what I saw about Yoko. I'm not saying John didn't do what he wanted, so much. I'm saying she influenced what she wanted, not so much of what John needed. Which was sad to me also. Paul had Linda who definitely moved him where he needed to be for himself. That's just my opinion. Most of us, all, do what we think our loved ones need. It's those few that do not understand that. As for the breakup, it could have been anything. But it wasn't just anything. I think she knew as well, John knew, thus the bed in the studio. A claim of this is now, basically an attempt to make something better. But it didn't. If she would have done what Ringo thought he needed to do, and offer to give space, maybe the mood and atmosphere would have been a little better. Eh, now I'm just ramblin' lol...
What an excellent interview! It's just wonderful seeing john so relaxed, so clever and, almost, dare i say, happy. But...... It also breaks my heart so. I just want to hug him, to tell him how much the world loves him, that everything is going to be alright. But, of course, i can't. 😢
Found it rather uncomfortably watching. Snyder was your typical U.S. media anchor man . 1:08:58 U.S. viewers ofcourse got used to this interview style . "John fighting so hard to stay in New York" , while the CIA and FBI tried to convince him he was not welcome ; he just wouldn't listen. Irony of ironies, his millions stayed with Uncle Sam .
Die Beatles waren der größte Glücksfall der Pop/Rockmusik. Es wäre wie Beethoven und Mozart würden in einer Band spielen und sich gegenseitig mit ihren Kompositionen übertreffen, oder gemeinsam geniale Lieder produzieren. Alle vier stammen aus Liverpool, sind aber in Hamburg musikalisch aufgewachsen. (John's eigene Worte). Jeder, jede Band hat sie imitiert, von den Rolling Stones bis zu den Petshop Boys, ihre Art im Chor zu singen, sich zu kleiden, ihre Frisur hat jeder (!!!) getragen, sie waren Vorbild in allem, was die Jugend damals tat. Jeder der Vier spielte mehrere Instrumente, jeder war ein begnadeter Sänger (selbst Ringo sang besser als z.B. Mick Jagger) und jeder komponierte eigene Lieder! Ohne Beatles würden wir heute noch "In the Mood" in unseren Köpfen summen!
They made a huge thing about these guys trying LSD, but I don't see any mention that LSD was not illegal in the USA till October 24, 1968, meaning lots' of people that have been considered outlaws for taking it, at all, when they were doing nothing illegal at all by taking it before Oct of 68, I only mention cause many aren't even aware of this fact I don't think I heard Paul state when he took it on that interview
The part near the end where George, Paul, and Ringo are sitting around the table chatting is amazing given that they look and sound just like anybody else in that situation. And yet they are three quarters of the most talented and famous band in history.
The Beatles were so welcome.....It helped the U.S. forget about their recent military coup . The U.S. more or less became a one party state after November '63.
imagine interviewing the beatles and asking questions like that. 🙄 i always thought it was so embarrassing for america and other countries to ask such useless asinine questions. the beatles were too kind and had a lot of patience
Brian Epstein kept those Ladd's busy,they were working all the time It's amazing how much patience those guys had with those obnoxious reporters.they really were very nice and polite gentlemen And as for John I have nothing bad to say about him he fell in love with Yoko and did what any of us would have done when you fall in love that deeply you will be true to your heart God bless him and Yoko and thanks for all the music you gave us in such a short time you were just getting warmed up !
I Wish. to. Paul and Ringo. To Be Heathy and. Happy. That. Nobody will be. allow to make. There's Life. Shorter! Guys. Please live 200 hundreds. Years or. Whatever you Want! ❤️😍🥰🌹🌷🌺 Your. Freand
04:00 lol they were too tired to be witty in this interview. The interview made a quip "Well we think they're better" (the Toronto fans), and Paul, clearly tired, just "alright". George seemed to be wired though haha
When he speaks about being able to go out to dinner with out being hassled by the public. Chapman probably saw this and said to himself "bingo "! Wish he had went out with bodyguards in spite of the majority being cool. Not everyone is cool. There is always a Chapman somewhere lurking. Obsessive groupies!!!
John lennon is correct the uk accents like liverpudlian yorkshire geordie lancashire glaswegian accents where not common in the bbc in the 1960s it was more posh english itv television broke the mould
I'm surprised that nobody made a comment of how George stated that Paul supposedly Paul came into the band as an ongoing affair which originally was not true I wonder why this is 😳
It's weird looking how the journalist who interviewed John was smoking, in this days and long time ago smoking is forbidden in closed places. Is the first time I watched a journalist smoking at TV. John was naive thinking he had more freedom in USA, without having a guardsman, giving just a couple of autographs.
I have a question, does anybody know what song they are playing at 11:17:10? It's driving me nuts cuz I know I've heard it I can't think of a name. I tried to use Google audio search and it says it doesn't recognize it. I even downloaded Shazam and a couple other song searching apps and none of those recognized it. I'm not sure if it's a Beatles tune or it came from somewhere else or if they just made it up as they were going along but it sounds so familiar Please help me with this conundrum I'd appreciate your input. Thank you.
Don't be, David. I am an Australian and bone-headed Australian interviewers asked the boys the same bloody endless idiotic, inane questions here in '64. It wasn't just Canada. It was the same everywhere The Beatles went. It was the way it was in the early to mid-'60s. The basically conservative and staid media just didn't know how to handle a phenomenon like The Beatles back then.
~ The Tom Snyder interview was pretty good, as well as the segments later in this. But the early black-and-white clips were absolute _CRINGE!_ Zappa was right about "journalists." Talk about an insult to one's intelligence!
