It was 53 years ago Sunday (January 30th, 1969), that the Beatles performed for the last time in public, on the roof of their Apple headquarters building in London. For the better part of that January, the group had been filming their rehearsals for a planned comeback concert, before band politics forced them to abort the plan and concentrate on recording a new album, tentatively titled Get Back.
Now available for global streaming is the complete audio for the Beatles' legendary rooftop performance. The sound has been mixed in stereo and Dolby Atmos by Giles Martin and Sam Okell.
Coming to select IMAX theaters for one day only on Sunday, January 30th is The Beatles: Get Back – Rooftop Concert. The 60-minute presentation, which takes place on the 53rd anniversary of the “Fab Four's” final performance on the rooftop of their Apple Headquarters in London, will also feature a Q&A portion with director Peter Jackson via satellite. The concert will go on to see a global theatrical release from February 11th to February 13th.
