  • I was pulling for a boy named charlie brown

  • @Fordham1969 I take it you noticed that when Quincy Jones left the orchestra pit, there was another conductor. with regards to the five bits of music, the orchestra would have had them altogether on the one sheet of music split into the songs,

  • A thought just occurred to me.5 nominees for this category and one must assume that the orchestra was prepared to play any one of 5 themes associated with each nominee,and yet they instantly played Let It Be a second after it was announced the winner.It doesn't seem as though there was enough time for the conductor to call out the tune,let alone for the orchestra to pick out the correct music.Does this mean that the conductor has advance knowledge of the winner?

  • They probably didnt attend to recieve their award because they didnt like the movie 'Let it Be'. They were tearing apart :(

  • @QueenBeatlesWings Paul and Linda were in LA a month before where they attended the Grammies and picked up an award for The Beatles for Let It Be, not sure why they didn't hang round for the Oscars, maybe they didn't care? I've never heard any of The Beatles talk about their Oscar

  • Quincy Jones. Great music, great man.

  • John, Paul George, Ringo and Quincy?

  • haha the award announcer was so happy when he read "The Beatles, Let It Be" of course ;)

  • @phillper0906 they won an Oscar AND a Grammy for Let it Be since it was a film and had music. Paul (with Linda in tow) accepted for The Beatles on the Grammy. They also won a few Oscars for Hard day's Night film/soundtrack and Sgt. Pepper album.

  • Why didn't The Beatles come? Or at least one of them?
