Pure mayham absolute Beatlemania! These Dutch kids were so lucky to enjoy such freedom.....I've seen documentaries of them in Spain, France and Italy and the kids were so incredibly opressed by the governments, so much more conservative! But they got to see them too.
@puzleman1 It's an Auction Hall for Produce, in the North of Holland. Close to My Hometown. Look it up on the map. They used to organize big shows like that there. Always Dutch opening acts.

Quite the opposite, this was a much better version than anything that Ringo did. Much better rock beat and a tighter band. The Beatles would have risen even higher if Jimmy was the drummer.
Seriously, how could they have risen any higher??! Their songs are even being played in outerspace for aliens to hear or something! ;)
As for the drumming, I don't find it a lot different from Ringo's in this particular song.
Later on Ringo did very subtle, original and impressive drumming in songs like Strawberry fields and A day in a life. I always felt his drumming achieved perfectly what each song needed.

Jimmy may have been a nice drummer, but the style wasn't the same as Ringo. Look at the physical posture...

@vxenon67 I believe this was when he had appendicitis. If not, then it was when he was very sick and just couldn't make it.

The whole gig was recorded on a tape-recorder.
A guy who worked in the hall placed microphones between the flowers in front of the stage.
The recordings are amazing, but he sold it to someone who sold it to EMI...
There is also much more video footage, but not many people have seen that (yet).

The same concert was recorded by the NRU in a van ouside.
Still only a lot of ambience and band sound, almost no vocals but in high quality mono.

It's strange how much Ringo's drumming style added to the music. It's just not the same with Jimmy.
