Following on from the Paul McCartney and Beatles threads on Friday..... on 13:41 - Dec 21 by PJH
Yes, that struck me because the belief is/was that they were more or less at each other's throats at the time but that clip goes against that.
I suppose the truth is that they were somewhere in between, as a band they were starting to crack but as mates they were still mates.
They could still make great music too.
As illustrated by the fact they played on, wrote/composed or produced each other's music after the Beatles broke up. Also the incident in 1974 when Lennon and McCartney bumped into each other in LA, resulting in a bootleg (of stellar talent, but dubious quality): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_Toot_and_a_Snore_in_%2774
I wonder if it shows the row after Yoko ate George's chocolate biscuits
"...I noticed that something down in the studio had caught George Harrison’s attention. After a moment or two he began staring bug-eyed out the control room window… Yoko had gotten out of bed and was slowly padding across the studio floor, finally coming to a stop at Harrison’s Leslie cabinet, which had a packet of McVitie’s Digestive Biscuits on top. Idly, she began opening the packet and delicately removed a single biscuit. Just as the morsel reached her mouth, Harrison could contain himself no longer. ‘THAT B**H!’ Everyone looked aghast, but we all knew exactly who he was talking about. ‘She’s just taken one of my biscuits!’ Harrison explained. He wasn’t the least bit sheepish, either. As far as he was concerned, those biscuits were his property and no one was allowed to go near them. Lennon began shouting back at him, but there was little he could say to defend his wife (who was happily munching away in the studio), because he shared exactly the same attitude towards food."
