[@JoanneJaworski]

@@jamesmanon3000 it doesn't/didn't seem like love to me but control & obsession between 2 needy people. Obsession can feel like love to "starving for love" people. Yoko didn't belong in the band sessions or in these photo shoots. Her energy alone was very heavy, and it disrupted the other 3 band members that DID belong there and in the recording & photo sessions. She was out of line and so was John for forcing the situation to include her (if in fact that is how it happened...or did she just push her way into being there???)!

The keepers cottage wasn’t “Mock Tudor” it was an original Tudor cottage as it was built during the 1600’s. I have also read from various sources that it was actually John who insisted on Yoko being with him whilst he was at work, of course I don’t actually know for sure but as I have said I have read it was mainly John. Your videos are amazing, please keep them coming! I was six years old when these photos were taken & I had an older brother who use to play his Beatles records with me in his bedroom, that was my introduction to the “Fab Four”, he also took me to see “Yellow Submarine” at our local cinema a while later. As a teen I really got into them & bought many of their albums. Your videos help me to understand their history..Greetings from England 🙋🏻‍♀️🇬🇧

[@marcosofsky2605]

The Lads of Liverpool. The Fab Four. We never grow tired of their music and their stories. Their legend can only grow, and what a time it was to experience their rise in popularity, "I Saw Her Standing There" blasting out on the pocket radios-when we weren't listening to baseball games in America, we were listening to the Beatles, it seems. Sadly, those days seemed to pass so quickly and our melancholy nostalgia tinged with a certain feeling of loss . The impotent rage at the killing of John Lennon and the passing of George Harrison makes for wonder at what more might have been/ No, the gifts they have given us was quite enough, perhaps more than we deserve...

[@terryhorne2582]

Hi from Liverpool, I'm living 10 minutes away from Strawberry fields & John's old house on Mather Avenue, every time I go past either place I always say " alright John ", his spirit has been seen in both places over the years, I always look up at the front bedroom window when I pass Mendips & at times it feels like somebody is looking back at me, you never know? After all, he spent many years at this house & loved it. I'm 67 now but my older sister used to go & watch them in the Cavern, she married a yank & left Liverpool in 71, I recently sent her a signed t-shirt & photo from Pete Best,I was working in the Casbah, the place the lads first played before Ringo joined them,upstairs has now been converted into a hotel, but the club is still in the basement, as it was in 59/60, the black ceiling with silver stars ,painted by the lads is still there, as is John's scratched name on a wall & ceiling which he did with a small penknife ( which is now in the Beatle museum here in Liverpool) I'm very proud of the lads, they did alright for 4 scousers who shook the world.

The Tudor cottage that now stands at Tittenhurst is an exact replica of the original. When the Sheik bought the property, the cottage was in a great state of disrepair, so it was demolished and an exact replica was built and put in its place. Great video!

Paul only started to have Linda show up occasionally - after John had become "John&Yoko" for 6 months. By the time of this photo shoot (August 22, 1969) Yoko had been attached to John's hip all day, every day - for more than a year. It began with the White Album sessions in the summer of 1968... and had been that way for 15 months.

The arrival of Yoko Ono and the other Beatles' partners changed the dynamic of the band, making their breakup inevitable.

[@jabbermocky4520]

Brian Epstein's death probably made a bigger difference to the Beatles trajectory going forward than the arrival of Yoko or Linda. Brian was the man who held the business end together. Subsequent managers didn't understand the "boys" like Brian did. They were just in the biz of making the biz more profitable for themselves. I understand why Yoko and Linda were so cherished by their mates, John and Paul. Personal losses of close ones ( both of their mothers died young, for example ) can influence the choice of mates later on. Yoko was an innovative and skilled artist in her own right, for sure, but she also had an anchoring effect on John. Same with Linda and Paul. People change. Events change people. "In My Life" and all. John and Paul did have successful marriages to their partners, in the end, and that matters most of all.

[@stephen8623]

Really? It didn't break up the Rolling Stones and many other bands because they kept their wives and girlfriends out of the business. Sadly, John was a wounded man and OH NO (the manipulative, control-freak, nut case) took advantage of his weakness.

[@BobBenham]

I agree with you regarding the loss of Brian Epstein. That was the beginning of the end of the group, the first nail in the coffin. They were not businessmen. As for Yoko: in my opinion she was a self-promoting manipulative control-freak, devoid of artistic and musical talent. John should've stayed with Cynthia or May Pang. @@jabbermocky4520

[@louislamboley9167]

They all look as if they would like to be someplace else. A far cry from the photos in 1964. Everyone knows now what was going on musically between them. The end was getting close.

[@Shnu2]

Both John Lennon and Yoko Ono seemed to be very insecure people. Both seemed either oblivious to how their actions affected the group dynamics or didn’t care. On the Get Back documentary she seemed always be there, not contributing just hanging around like a bad smell. Credit to the other Beatles for accepting the situation and trying to get along. Some people think that Yoko Ono was talented but I just can’t see it, her screeching was just that - screeching. Always thought it was ironic how the two preached peace, love and understanding while at the same time were anything but to Cynthia and Julien Lennon.

[@MannyFernandez-j4c]

Thank you for sharing. Great pictures.-I’ve been in a lot of bands I am a musician mainly the drummer. I always tell people being in a band is like being married you have to put up with everybody’s stuff.-I never liked when my friends would bring their wives in and just sit there gloaming face it would bring the morale down Yoko never rocked out never had fun in the studios, didn’t understand music. It was not her music I think that she should’ve never been inside the studio and that was always a beetle rule. John broke the rules and messed up the morale inside the studio and you can see Chuck Berry’s face when he heard Yoko sing. Well we don’t call it that but you know what I mean.❤

[@stlbusker3025]

Yoko tried to weasel her way into the Beatles inner circle by setting her sights on Paul, but Paul rejected her from the onset. She then schemed her way to get next to John, and the rest is history. So many people attempted to approach all 4 of the Beatles, with hopes of gaining their trust and thereby becoming close to each member. Yoko had a game plan from the very beginning, and I'm fairly certain that if John had rejected her advances, she would have changed her plans and moved onto George and Ringo.

[@thejma724]

John was SIMPING and couldn't tell OHNO to keep her place, and yes Lennon was rude in forcing her into his mates

[@rickcleveland310]

Clearly there was a cost to John’s insistence that Yoko be in so many photos. The rest of the band didn’t feel nearly as inclined to do the same with their partners- not out of disrespect but simple decorum. John was breaking away from his lifelong partnership with Paul - and this is part of how he went about it. Obviously John felt he needed Yoko in all these pics and Yoko certainly could have declined. But she didn’t and I’m not sure I blame her. Do I wish they hadn’t broken up? I don’t know. I wish they had gotten back together and I choose to believe they might have had John lived long enough. Also, I think you can see George’s growing disenchantment from the group in many of these photos. And I don’t blame him, either. This band did more in ten years of record making then most musicians do in forty.

[@johngerson7335]

I tend to agree with your surmise about Yoko's 'omnipresence': John utilized that presence as a foil against his bond with Paul & the band. He didn't have the strength to just walk away, which is actually quite understandable given the circumstances.

[@aunch3]

You can feel the tense atmosphere between the Beatles in these photos. I think Yokos constant presence annoyed the others, but I don’t blame her I blame John. He was probably doing it deliberately to piss off Paul. I think any of us would join in on the shoot if we were invited lol

It's interesting because it was a very historic time for the band. Lennon told Paul he was officially quitting the Beatles on Sept 20, 1969. This being only 1 month before, one can only imagine what they were talking about. They had to be discussing who would become their next business manager. If someone could read lips maybe they'd see some interesting comments.

[@tangois]

I feel Yoko should've stayed away from the area where "The Beatles" were creating and discussing their music. She should've said "no" to John when she was brought to the studio and declined to be close or near the band as an act of respect to all of them. She wanted attention, and John promoted it. But,... they were in love and couldn't be apart from each other. When I look at "Get Back," it's even annoying to me to see her there, and it's been over 50 years now.

Its Gorgeous! the land alone is gorgeous! I would Never give up this place for the Dakota! John was a very smart man but, sometimes he wasnt using his brains...

Yoko had a plan from the beginning. She claimed not to know anything about the Beatles and John fell for that, thinking it was cool. I think she thought manipulating John would make her famous and it did, but not for her silly excuses for art .crazy ideas or singing. Just because she got John to bring her everywhere with him and annoy the others. In fact John's insistence on hiring Allen Klein was due to a promise Klein made to give Yoko's so called art an exhibition.

Yeah she was a manipulative psychopath that ran a cynical con on John, and he was unfortunately naive enough to be taken in by it. He was incredibly susceptible to being manipulated with several famous examples, a real liability.

She even tried with McCartney at first, but he didn't response and so she went for Lennon, acting like a real stalker for months. Many fans are still in deny, like "oh they were a beautiful couple", but history is getting clearer and clearer now. It's obvious (even on these photo shoots) she wanted her piece of the Beatle cake. She acted awfull with John's first wife and son. I can't see how anyone could consider her as a nice person with all the available information now.

Yoko didnt respect boundaries

Very enjoyable video I especially like the photo of the Beatles in the kitchen. They looked happy in those photos. The good thing about being 71 years old is that I lived through those times. As for Yoko going to work with John. I, personally, never questioned anything Yoko did. I loved John and Yoko as a couple and I believe that John’s love for her, to say the least, was unusual. In La days he called her mother. I think I would be nice to have some of those Beatle photos without her in them. I suppose in years to come, someone might photoshop her out of the photos. At the time I loved John, so anybody that made him happy was cool with me. Thank you for this video.

You love Yoko?! Do you realize what she did to him? You need to research what life was like for John from Nov. 1966 on. She is SO evil she makes Bernie Madoff look like a holy saint!

No mention of the Hey Jude album? How most of us first saw iconic photos from that shoot.

[@StrangeHistoryX]

I’ll create a video just about that. Since there is more to say about the Cape Dutch cottage. I don’t really have much to say about the making of any particular album. There are others that are much more qualified to talk about that stuff than me.
