Hard to pull off live....

[@scottanderson8167]

One of the things the Beatles were frustrated about after 1966 is that their music became too complicated to replicate live onstage. But it appears all they needed was simply a fifth member and thirty piece orchestra.

[@robokitzbaldelobar1299]

Try to listen to Reo Brothers sir.

[@mirkorussomanno4981]

it was amps

[@jrgboy]

Amplification wasn't sophisticated enough back then , no backing tracks or synths when they were touring ...

[@davidgatzen1543]

Scott Anderson, There is a Beatles cover band, The Analogues, who go into fine detail to try to play the Beatles songs as close as they can to the original versions live. They also play many of the Beatles songs that the Beatles did not play live, because, as you said, the songs where too complicated to play live. This is a link to The Analogues version of "I am the Walrus" on KZbin. kzbin.info/www/bejne/hZqafZZqiNGbd68

[@scottanderson8167]

@@davidgatzen1543 Quite so. I have listened to them and they are very good.

[@Jeanninecomeau]

Good job. I got fooled for a second. Great cover.

[@terryendres3771]

It occurred to me the other day that anytime a piece by, say, Mozart or Beethoven is played by a symphony orchestra, that group is, in fact and deed, a tribute band. Most folks have no problem with that. It's the music that's eternal, not the artists.

Incredible... because peaple are alway´s more like John?

[@Timbretwo]

They have a good slightly distorted tube sound overall, perfect for that era. Kudos to their sound man.

[@johnallen2771]

One of the best John Lennon songs ever written. Strawberry Fields, too. These guys gave a good performance but nothing can come close to the way I would have liked them to play and see them. Can you imagine if we had more videos of The White Album or Sgt., Pepper's?

[@quality333]

shame they stopped performing live after 1966 . Technology had improved as far as sound in 68 and 69 so it would have been great to hear the Beatles perform live music from Sgt Pepper Mag Mystery Tour and the White Album. espeically in indoor arenas. It sort of took away from some of their legacy when they stopped performing

[@samgub]

yes so sad , they seemed to enjoy the rooftop concert , i think had they decided to do a one off show they'd have realised what they had missed. As you say technology moved on quite quickly within a short time , it would have been possible to replicate the songs with an orchestra etc. The Bootlegs do a fantastic show.

[@dallasbrubaker6054]

They couldn't take the screaming fans and the chaos it created; it was actually effecting them musically.

[@joeybonin7691]

@@quality333 Yes and no. I never saw them live, it didn't matter. I'd rather have the original recordings just as they are, with a video clip now and then.

[@ModelTrainOutsider]

Adam is one of the best all-around Lennon impersonators period. His one fault, if there is one, shows here. John could create a very identifiable scratch in his voice, which Adam doesn't reach.

[@gregsullivan7408]

Was the "scratch" entirely natural, or was distortion added? (btw, I do actually hear some "scratch" in Adam's voice here, but not as much as John's)

As a kid growing up in the 60s, near Liverpool , we used to sing ' umpa umpa stick it up your jumper' in the playground.. I often wondered whether we sang it because of this song, or whether John took the line from the playground chant?
