Ringo was the stand out of this show. He was beating those drums like they owed him money.

[@Fred.pSonic]

60 years later and STILL the most influential band on the face of this earth.

[@jonathanhathaway7796]

Anyone who thinks the Beatles weren't a great live band is an idiot. They' didn't have monitors on the stage to hear their vocals, (don't think they were invented yet) and the girls were screaming their heads off, so they couldn't hear a thing on stage, yet they're singing IN TUNE and playing tight. Excellent live band.

[@chuckwills8258]

The biggest band in history invented the "roadie" after this concert 😀Ringo fervently turning his drums around, and the boys trying to find a mic that worked! Seriously??

[@terencehennegan1439]

They took America by storm like a meteor from planet Beatles. Phenomenal.

[@lewismusser7184]

The first full-fledged American concert, fresh off their Ed Sullivan Show appearance. For the audience, one of the most exciting live shows in show business history!

[@urielstud]

I see why the kids loved them in this 4K rendition with great sound in 60 frames. George does a good job with Roll Over Beethoven, then Paul and John harmonize over With Love From Me To You and I Saw Her Standing There, etc. COPILOT Says: The Beatles performed their first live concert in Washington DC on **Tuesday, 11 February 1964** at the **Washington Coliseum**¹. This historic event marked their first US concert and was attended by a crowd of 8,092 fans. The band had to travel from New York to Washington, DC by train due to an East Coast snowstorm that had canceled all flights. They performed a setlist of 12 songs, including hits like 'I Want To Hold Your Hand' and 'She Loves You'. The concert is remembered as a significant moment in the Beatles' history and the beginning of Beatlemania in the United States.

[@graniteman62]

Ringo is the perfect beat for each song, George understated lead guitar without taking over and the band is very tight.

[@bobhewitt]

The Beatles doing their own stage work. Absolutely Awesome.

[@6thwatergateplumber]

When was the last time you got a chance to see the drum kit facing the wrong way, microphone not working, and the band just dealing with it, and going on? Ha...THIS is a true musical experience...there's a bit too much perfection in music today.

[@waynekasmar4401]

I predicate a big future for this group.

[@marcoscamargo7763]

E ainda hoje tem gente que tem a covardia de dizer que Os Beatles foram uma banda forjada. Imagine. Só! Aí está a prova de que eles cantavam e tocavam na raça. A Maior Banda de Todos Os Tempos. Os fundadores de uma época de ouro. Maravilhoso registro de Show. Não há mais oque dizer. 🎉👏🏻👏🏻🙏🏻🌹✨🌟

[@keithfenwick9992]

No one has seriously suggested that.

[@user-yr5kr4fl5o]

Concordo plenamente.

[@user-yr5kr4fl5o]

Os The Beatles fizeram muito sucesso, e ainda fazem sucesso e, as músicas são lindas eu sou muito fã dos Beatles. Quem fala isso perdeu a noção por completo, e não a nenhuma banda nos tempos de hj que fizeram tanto sucesso igual os Beatles em resumo; podemos colocar o Elvis Presley que também fizeram muito sucesso e, ainda fazem. Gosto muito dos Beatles e do Elvis viva esses dois Rock Internacional.

60+ years ago. Incredible to witness just how great the Beatles were early on and glimpses of what they would become. Such a moment in time captured for posterity.

[@frankkvistgaard4824]

Watched the band 4 months later june 26th in Copenhagen; Denmark👍

[@dennisfleming5095]

Concert production has come a long way since those days. Even with all the flaws, they were still incredibly good performers. Especially considering they probably couldn't hear themselves very well.

Any one who may have felt that Ringo wasn't a hard hitting drummer...have a look at this...

[@EloisPowell-jg3io]

How is George Harrison not considered one of the greatest guitarists of all time. Just classic guitar licks at 21 years old. Hamburg prepared them so much. When they hit America in 1964 they were perfection.

Ah, yes the manually band-operated revolving stage combined with the innovation of replacing a microphone that doesn't work with another microphone that doesn't work. Still, The Beatles gave a magnificent performance. What professionalism! What a band!

[@WilliamJuzek]

Still one of the biggest mainstream bands/artists , 60 years later.. undescribable by words.

I rented this on VHS back in 1994. I was floored.

There was urine running down the aisle as folks were peeing themselves from excitement!!! The fans who were blessed to witness this concert must have been angels in a previous life. The Beatles kicked of the Age of Aquarius...

So fantastic!!! The mic situation for this performance prob drives anyone who has done set up for bands nutzzzzzzz

[@TonyLovell]

George demonstrates the temerity that made this band great at 2:50 ... he sensed his mike was fairly dead, and hoped the other might be move lively. So he ventured over, to good effect. Everyone won. It is a mark of shame on the venue staff that the imbalance was never addressed.

[@thumbsaloft]

This concert seriously needs the OFFICIAL BLU-RAY/4K TREATMENT! Can't believe such a historic moment hasn't been?!

[@marcsmalkin5890]

leave it as it was ....real

[@thumbsaloft]

@@marcsmalkin5890Improving how it sounds doesn't change the reality of the show, it will just SOUND and LOOK even better! Should have been done long ago!

[@MNL2008]

Their very first concert in the USA. February 11, 1964.

[@Stonecutter334]

The next day they play a little know concert at Carnegie Hall in NYC. It was going to be recorded by George Martin and Capital but sadly that didn’t happen.

[@bruhisfoogoten]

They played on the Ed Sullivan Show on Feb 9th of 1964

[@100chuckjones]

I only wish they toured during some of their later years. These guys were so tight live. Imagine hearing Sgt Peppers live ? Would have been amazing.

[@enricomenconi7015]

Their best live appearence, without doubt. See how they were amazing musicians when they still could hear what they were playing, even with terrible acoustic and all those girls screaming like crazy. Mainly, see how Ringo Starr was an incredible drummer. Tô play rock like that in those very early days is amazing.

[@Fred.pSonic]

Ringo fueled Beatlemania, he kept that front line together and on their toes. I think he seriously was trying to split his drum skins and destroy his cymbals here. The ferocity of his attack at 09:10 on I Saw Her Standing There has few peers. Anyone who rags on Ringo has absolutely no idea of what they're talking about.

[@randb4865]

The best quality, thank you!

[@luisvelasco6490]

Excelente película beatles original por siempre para mí buen oído

[@Kieop]

what a treat to finally see this with the original audio! So cool to hear George play the harmonica intro to Please Please Me on the guitar. I liked the subtle changes that Ringo made to the way he sang I Wanna Be Your Man. In future performances he would stick closer to the record. Probably Paul's best performance of Long Tall Sally; in future performances he will just slur the words. This was crisp and energetic. Such a great concert, despite the technical difficulties. I don't know why the secondary mics were muted the way they were. This was most obvious on I Want to Hold Your Hand. The mic had clearly been at full volume when Paul made the intro, but turned down when the song started. They also turned Ringo's lead mic down, despite the fact that the others specifically handed him the mic that had been used for lead on most songs, clearly with the intention that they wouldn't mute it. Bzzt. Wrong answer. I guess the tech guys were worried about the main mic picking up too much drum noise?

[@KevanCorkill]

[@user-fj1mg2pk3y]

Супер!!!❤❤❤

[@Eduardude]

Love the Beatles to pieces, but the background vocal mike is not loud enough. We don't hear the gorgeous harmonies clearly enough, just the lead singer. Brilliant vocal performance by McCartney on Long Tall Sally toward the end of the concert. And of course John was brilliant on This Boy. There was also a beautiful duet between George and Paul on one of the songs. The greatest band ever. Even Ringo sang. Nice.

[@joe6096]

This is 1964. Vocal mikes?? You’re lucky we can hear them at all. They were simply mic’d directly to the Coliseum’s house PA system with no stage monitors or mics on the amps. You’re hearing the Coliseum’s house PA system and their amps right off the stage. Primitive times. When they say the world was not prepared for the Beatles that’s literally the honest truth. There’d never been a large-scale rock band in an arena or stadium filled to the limit with crazy, screaming fans before them. So never did anyone think about designing thousands of watts of amplifiers, stage monitors, and multi-channel mixing desks to ensure you can hear everyone and everything. This was jazz bar technology forced into mammoth rock stardom over night.

[@bobtemplin4787]

Experiencing Beatlemania back in the 60’s probably will never be appreciated by so many that weren’t yet alive back then. It really was something that hasn’t been experience since.

[@sdvisser]

The start of the concert is like a comedy! Ringo's drums are facing the wrong way, he tries to turn the drum riser around by himself. John has to tell the stage crew to give him some help. Georges mic is off for the first song so he has to race across to use John's mic. I think John's guitar was off for half of the first song you can hear it kick in later. And yet the Beatles put on a great show! The quality of the songs shine through.

Concerts were a nightmare for them.they did pretty well considering there were no stage monitors and they couldn't hear themselves.

[@jeffscheiner1553]

Nice film quality. Two days after the first Ed Sullivan.

[@joe6096]

Anyone know why, when they played I Saw Her Standing There live, they always went right to the third verse out of the solo without going back to the bridge? That bridge really makes the song click if you ask me. In all the live takes I’ve ever seen they skip the second bridge out of George’s solo and just go straight into the third verse.

[@dhanimarques]

Full version colorized, please!!!

[@vincentlussier8264]

They came at the right time because at that time the world was still coming to grips with what happened to President Kennedy only a month earlier when he was gunned down. Everyone needed a boost to make them feel better again and the Beatles made a difference!

[@keithfenwick9992]

Not bad. Think they'll do well.

[@nikgl9324]

I look, I remember. Calm, uncomplicated melodic music. Why were we going crazy at that time? To the point of complete insanity. Maybe because they were open. Now this is no longer the case, now rock is money, it’s not talent, but a craft.

[@Kinsale1333]

Maybe I'm just a nostalgic old guy (well, I'm certainly an old guy anyway) but I long for the days when 4 working class guys from Liverpool actually made the world a better place through music. We had hope then. Now we live in world of rapacious corporations, Vladimir Putin, Xi Jinping, and all the other losers who have taken us backwards. We even thought we could do something to eliminate American racism. Ah, well. As I prepare to depart this life, I remember Beethoven's belief that music just might save the world. Perhaps it's not too late.😊

Beatles had two guys that carried their equipment, and set up their drums and amps the whole time they were touring. As far as fine tuning the drum set up and tuning the instruments, the Beatles just did it themselves. Tours around the world with just 6 guys taking care of everything.

[@pastafagioli321]

Why was Ringo's drums set up in the wrong direction ???

[@stevenorcott354]

What's with the drums in the beginning, for a professionally filmed event featuring the preeminent kings of rock and roll, they certainly made them look awkward at best, it was a downer for a group that needs to make an impression immediately. That would have pissed me off if I were in that group.

[@michaelharrington75]

This was the pioneering days of arena/stadium concerts. Everyone was learning how to do it. The Beatles had 2 guys that drove them around, carried, and set up their equipment the whole time they were touring. They were dependent on the PA systems and lighting already present in the concert halls, stadiums, and arenas they performed at. Nowadays an act half as big as the Beatles has their own PA systems, lights, and even stages. They have 3 tour busses full of guys, and several tractor trailers to carry their equipment. I think they done pretty good for what they had.

[@stevenorcott354]

But, seriously, they came on stage with the drums facing opposite the amplifiers!!! C'mon guys, get it together!!

[@sherrybirchall8677]

​@@stevenorcott354you're blaming The Beatles for this? Yes, they shouldn't have had to fix everything to start, but they did, and got it going pretty quick. Jeez
