The Beatles perform 'The Long and Winding Road' for a camera crew and a small group of friends. Recorded for the Get Back project of 1969, these sessions were supposed to bring the group together and get back to their roots. The song appears on Let it Be, the last Beatles album, released in 1969 (edit, 1970), and was their last #1 song in the US. This recording is from the documentary film also entitled Let it Be; http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Let_It_Be_%28film%29

Comments

"While the released version of the song was very successful, the post-production modifications to the song by producer Phil Spector angered McCartney to the point that when he made his case in court for breaking up The Beatles as a legal entity, he cited the treatment of "The Long and Winding Road" as one of six reasons for doing so."

Upvote because I love them.

I was necking with Carolyn on a sandy creek bed, with my bud Jack and Beanie in the back seat, the night John was killed.

When I heard that George had passed, I sat in an office with five other people, pretending I was laughing at their jokes as I dabbed the tears from my eyes.
