I have a bootleg VHS of Let It Be. This new footage looks and sounds pristine.
I've got a really old one, it was broadcast on the BBC in the early 80's and my dad taped it. I've got a couple of books dedicated to this period and I've had the 30 Days bootleg set for years http://www.maccafan.net/Bootlegs/ThirtyDays/Thirtydays.htm
To have all this brilliant footage that has never been seen before cleaned up an edited is a bit of a holy grail, apart from a brief VHS release the original film was never released on DVD or Blu Ray and is hard to get. To be able to see the dynamics of them in the studio, as craftsmen creating, doing the day job part of it will be really interesting.
I heard about this footage in a book I recently read but I can't remember what book it was.
Thinking about it can't have been any of The Fabs
It looks good man!
I had liver and pork belly last night.
If you like the Beatles or just interested this is a ***king good book, it's not some big biography. It's loads of short chapters, of interviews from the time and stuff written in the media at the time.
It's hard to explain, it shouldn't work but it does really well and is one of the best music books I've read.

When you look at the change they did / were involved in - it's mind blowing.
We can't really comprehend I suppose, although I see similar things - but they are going the other way - backwards
You know what I mean?

I think you may be right. Rock Music as we know it is dead. Who was the last British band who were a big thing internationally ? Artic Monkeys? That was nearly 20 years ago, all the festivals it's still Coldplay, Foo Fighters and Muse like it's still 2000. You ain't going to get an Oasis or Stone Roses coming through nowadays.

Can't remember if discussed on here, but McCartney 321 on Disney+ with him and Rick Rubin is absolutely brilliant. Must watch for any Beatles/McCartney fans.

Depends what you mean by “dead”. If your metric is international stardom, then maybe, but there is (and always has) been so much good music out there. It seems very much alive to me!
