While shooting the video for “I Feel Fine,” the Beatles got hungry and ordered some fish and chips. The director wanted to use their meal in the video, but Brian Epstein nixed the idea--he thought it made them look too much like normal everyday people!

The Beatles on The Morecambe & Wise Show, 1963. The way John takes a sly little put-down and adds aggressive eye contact and refusing to release his hand to turn it faintly threatening...

I wish we had audio of this conversation between Yoko and Linda! It’s the most unguarded and animated we ever see Yoko in Get Back.

“Also very good in the heart too, I think.” Give me all the people talking about how great Ringo is.

Paul McCartney works out the words for “The Long and Winding Road” in Get Back.
