History of British Rock - Part 9.5

[DAVWAVE]

John could be an idiot at times. Ask his son, Julian.

[Khultan]

I live less than 5 minutes away from Candlestick Park, where The Beatles performed their last concert show. I'm trying to imagine what it must've been like in the late 60s.

BULLSHIT BITTEULZE, U SUCK DICK, THAT IS CREAM "TALES OF BRAVE ULYSSES"

[DAVWAVE]

@niggaT42000 wash out you mouth and grow up.

[Bitteulze]

What ?! This song is not "Tales of Brave Ulysses", I don't think it's even Cream.

[Cissy2cute]

I can remember when Pink Floyd opened up for the Who in the East Village. It was before their unique psychedelic show and style took hold here, and the whole audience basically ignored them. We just wanted to see the Who and Pink Floyd seemed borrrrinnng as they seemed to just drone on forever with the swirling colored light show behind them..

Of course, things later changed!

[zills2]

luv John here

[WhiteCamry]

Betcha didn't know ... Davy Jones was on The Ed Sullivan Show the same night as the Beatles' first appearance. He was playing the Artful Dodger in the Broadway cast of "Oliver!"

[Cissy2cute]

@WhiteCamry You're right! Forgot that Jones started out on the stage. The Monkees were a "manufactured" group, after all.

[dbrinkm1]

If 6 exists.....then 9.5 is fine.....but where is 6 or 7?

[tunenito]

Parts 6 & 7 did exist and were up for some time, BUT .... YouTube took them off due to copyright infrigement.

[WhiteCamry]

@tunenito

You could always e-mail zip files. I won't squawk.

;-)

[SunshineandBeer]

GOOD FOR YOU JOHN!!

[iamtheeggman100]

she's a woman is one helluva song.

[ScreenJunkie]

Part 9.5 huh... Calling it part 6 woulda been more practical.

[EuthanizeReligion]

"British Music"

Um the Blues was not British music it was purely American and if you want to be more detailed African American.

[brainslow]

vry good but any song from Revolver or Rubber soul wuld hav been more representative of the Beatles at this stage

[bandcouver]

Exactly, brainslow. The problem they had with touring was ,for one, they were doing pretty much the same old songs over and over again, and with all that screaming and non-existent PA systems, there was no way anything from Rubber Soul or Revolver was going to be appreciated over the din. However, including actual Beatles music from that period of '66 would have been a better representation of the group's musical progress prior to and during their final tour.

[Mick342]

I like yoko.

[Radomu]

biach

[RAGtagBAG88]

Paul McCartney, conservative arse licker as usual when asked about Vietnam. "All you did was 'Yesterday' - Oh how do you sleep at night.

So thank you John Lennon, speaking out as always. Never afraid. The Beatles would have been nothing without John Lennon. A true Working Class Hero!

[theozzyboi]

john ennon would disagree with this comment

[RAGtagBAG88]

Peace ozzi, I've no quarrel & Lennon probably would disagree with "Beatles would have been nothing without JL".

But I feel strongly enough abt McCartney to say that somewhere a spine was running about looking for McCartney's back to run up (as regards politics)

[theozzyboi]

ok, fair enough, you have re-phased your opinion in a much more conservative way then the comment before. Some people create this illusion that lennon and mccartney hated each other when actually they probaly had a very good freindship, hence the great songs they wrote together. Dont compare and/or be nasty about one or the other, be peacefull and listen to the music

[RAGtagBAG88]

peace ozzieboi.

you're right, I'll let it go & enjoy...

keep smiling & loving man

[theozzyboi]

..........:)

[PublioIII]

John Lennon es Dios

[fntime]

It is very hard to take a man seriously

who married Yoko!

I rest my case.

[Pickinbuddy]

"Imagine there's no Yoko...It's easy if you try..."

[theozzyboi]

john lennons sense of humour was very english, something americans dont get alot

[tunenito]

I love those American press conferences from 1964 - 1966 when John and the guys really turned on the British humor.

[theozzyboi]

a very piss taking sense of humour. It a shame this programme didnt move on to the 70's

[tunenito]

Would love to see a 70's version of this documentary. Wow!

[theozzyboi]

thanks for uploading tho matey good documentary

[sunbird2]

About 10 years ago the Australian Broadcasting Corporation (ABC) screened a BBC weekly series of documentaries called Sounds of the 60s, Sounds of the 70s etc devoted to the musical decades. It was great and a friend taped it :)

[1960gal]

theozzyboi - not just a problem for Americans - also find that North/South England humour differs. Have to go for my own: London born and bred: had a lot of humour around me growing up in the 60s :-D

[theozzyboi]

ye i agree with that

a scouce sense of humoour is unique

and different to any kind of humour

[tiexin]

CREAM!!! CLAPTON!!!!!!!!!!!

[sigu655]

John Lennon had balls ..

[nolester]

not only does John have the greatest rock n' roll voice but he has the balls to speak out...if only he was alive today...

[tunenito]

You are SO right, I agree 100%.

[Weirfan69]

"sorry monkes, i didn't mean it, i meant actually" LMAO I love John. rip.

[ar10willard]

Look at LENNON 1:08 GREAT

HE HATES THIS JAIL THEY ARE IN

[PAULLONDEN]

What a feeling that must've been ,to be in the eye of a human hurricane to the violence of the sun, still...big fun

[pooXpoo]

cream!

[23literford140]

great clips! - thx Lennon's quip about Showbiz, lol..
