Themes &amp; Apps\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">script<\/a>ions of conversations during the making of the \u201cLet It Be\u201d album and film, put the lie to the idea that the Beatles were getting a bit prickly with one another during that time frame and that not all was fab with the foursome at the time.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s really much worse than that.<\/p>\n<p>Until, you know, it\u2019s suddenly wonderful. \u201cYou\u2019re working so well together!\u201d producer George Martin is heard saying in the latter stages of the book, like a proud papa whose boys have made up; he, too, has got to believe it\u2019s getting better. And then, as the famous 1969 rooftop concert approaches, the whole affair ends on a note of ebullience \u2026 with premonitions of further clouds to come.<\/p>\n<p>Peter Jackson was not lying when he said that his upcoming documentary film of the same name will capture a more mirthful or even joyful side of the band in its waning days than the notoriously dour 1970 \u201cLet It Be\u201d movie did. In the \u201cGet Back\u201d book, out today, both notions turn out to be true: it was the worst of times, and it was also a bloody good time\u2026 just not at the same time. Presumably, with six hours to fill, mostly using this same material, Jackson will have to show the darker side of what went down, too, and has just been emphasizing the period\u2019s lighter side as a necessary corrective to the 50-year-old conventional wisdom that everything about \u201cLet It Be\u201d was a bummer.<\/p>\n<p>The idea of reading straight transcriptions of in-studio banter \u2014 well-interspersed with the photography of Ethan Russell and Linda McCartney \u2014 sounds like a chore, if not outright bore. But \u201cGet Back\u201d will prove to be thoroughly absorbing for most Beatles followers, since it does loosely tell a story \u2014 not to mention the fact that John Lennon and Paul McCartney are just damned funny fellows, left to their own jocular devices as unwitting dialogue writers. Certainly there are interchanges in the book that a playwright would throw out, but it\u2019s remarkable how much of \u201cGet Back reads like it could be adaptable into an off-Broadway play, full of dark comedy and rich insight about what can and can\u2019t emerge out of ego and compromise among longtime partners approaching a crossroads.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s not just about being in a band. \u201cIt\u2019s like you and me are lovers,\u201d Lennon says at one point, tellingly, talking about their harmonies as things start to really click, but perhaps unwittingly speaking their deeper connection. \u201cYeah, well, I\u2019ll be wearing my skirt on the show anyway,\u201d jokes McCartney in response (during a time when they thought they were moving toward a TV special, not a feature film). You could see it as a little bit like a band version of \u201cScenes From a Marriage,\u201d albeit with three partners moving from bickering to banter to bliss, as George Harrison is very much a key third partner in these exchanges. (Ringo Starr isn\u2019t heard from nearly as much, amid all the brainstorms and thunderstorms.)<\/p>\n<p>Belying the nearly stage-worthy action, the book divides the core month that was spent making \u201cLet It Be\u201d neatly into three \u201cacts\u201d \u2014 the first being the largely unhappy time they spent recording and filming in the foreign and uninviting environs of Twickenham Studios; the second being the cheerful experience they had after moving to the cozier confines of Apple Studios, with Billy Preston in tow; and the final, far shorter act being the famed London rooftop mini-concert.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s hard to overstate just how stark a contrast there is between the first and second parts of the book. It\u2019s as if Act 1 is all about thinking about getting a divorce\u2026 and Act 2 is about pushing past that for the makeup sex. And, sure, the divorce eventually came, but not before a temporary happy ending in which much whoopee was made.<\/p>\n<div class=\"post-content-image \/\/  alignnone size-full wp-image-1235087630\">\n<figure class=\"o-figure   lrv-u-max-width-100p\" style=\"width:1024px\">\n<div class=\"c-lazy-image \">\n<div class=\"lrv-a-crop-16x9\" style=\"padding-bottom:calc((697\/1024)*100%);\">\n<p>            <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"c-lazy-image__img lrv-u-background-color-grey-lightest lrv-u-width-100p lrv-u-display-block lrv-u-height-auto\" src=\"https:\/\/variety.com\/wp-content\/themes\/pmc-variety-2020\/assets\/public\/lazyload-fallback.gif\" data-lazy-src=\"https:\/\/variety.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/The-Beatles-Twickenham-Film-Studios-Jan-7-1969_Ethan-A.-Russell-Apple-Corps-Ltd.jpg\" alt=\"Lazy loaded image\" data-lazy-srcset=\"https:\/\/variety.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/The-Beatles-Twickenham-Film-Studios-Jan-7-1969_Ethan-A.-Russell-Apple-Corps-Ltd.jpg 5088w, https:\/\/variety.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/The-Beatles-Twickenham-Film-Studios-Jan-7-1969_Ethan-A.-Russell-Apple-Corps-Ltd.jpg?resize=150,102 150w, https:\/\/variety.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/The-Beatles-Twickenham-Film-Studios-Jan-7-1969_Ethan-A.-Russell-Apple-Corps-Ltd.jpg?resize=300,204 300w\" data-lazy-sizes=\"(min-width: 87.5rem) 1000px, (min-width: 78.75rem) 681px, (min-width: 48rem) 450px, (max-width: 48rem) 250px\" height=\"697\" width=\"1024\"\/><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div><figcaption class=\"c-figcaption lrv-u-font-size-12 lrv-u-font-family-secondary lrv-u-width-100p lrv-u-text-align-left\">\n<p>                    <span class=\"lrv-u-font-size-14@desktop lrv-u-margin-t-050\">The Beatles at Twickenham Studios, as seen in \u201cGet Back\u201d<\/span><br \/>\n                            <cite class=\"lrv-u-color-grey u-font-family-basic\">Ethan A.

At one point in the first half, after an offsite band meeting in which the omnipresence of Yoko One was apparently a topic of discussion, he tells the others: \u201cIt\u2019s going to be such an incredible sort of comical thing like, in 50 years\u2019 time, you know: \u2018They broke up \u2018cause Yoko sat on an amp,\u2019 you know [laughs]\u2026 or just something like that. What? \u2018Well, you see, John kept bringing this girl along.\u2019 What? It\u2019s not as though there\u2019s any sort of earth-splitting rows or anything.\u201d You\u2019d swear this prophecy was a contemporary insert into the vintage dialogue \u2014 maybe made up by McCartney and Jackson themselves, to prove just how temperate things really were! \u2014 but if it\u2019s on the 1969 tape, it\u2019s on the tape.<\/p>\n<p>Having Ono around as Lennon\u2019s emotional support person, sitting beside him in the studio, <em>was<\/em> a concern, but hardly a deal-breaker for the other Beatles. \u201cI mean, I\u2019m not going to lie, you know, I would sacrifice you all for her,\u201d Lennon tells the others. \u201cShe comes everywhere, you know.\u201d And McCartney adopts a pretty good attitude about that: \u201cThere\u2019s, like, always only two answers: one is to fight it and fight her and try and get the Beatles back to four people without Yoko, and sort of ask Yoko to sit down at the board meetings,\u201d he tells other participants while Lennon is away. \u201cOr else the other thing is just to realize she\u2019s there, you know, and he\u2019s not going to sort of split with her just for our sakes. And then it\u2019s not even as much of an obstacle, as long as we\u2019re not trying to surmount it. \u2026 It\u2019s not that bad, you know. \u2026 It\u2019s all right, let the young lovers stay together.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Any tensions about Ono seem quickly and easily reconciled, at least compared to the less surmountable issue of Harrison actually quitting the band, mid-project. The way it\u2019s presented in the transcript is almost comically abrupt: Lennon is described as noodling on a Chuck Berry riff on guitar when Harrison says, \u201cI\u2019m leaving\u2026\u201d Lennon stops playing and asks, \u201cWhat?\u201d Harrison finished his thought: \u201c\u2026the band now.\u201d John: \u201cWhen?\u201d George: \u201cNow.\u201d And he means it. Even after 50 years of all the hindsight and scrutiny in the world, it still counts as quite the cliffhanger.<\/p>\n<p>Lennon doesn\u2019t seem to think this is a reason to shut anything down. \u201cNow the point is, if George leaves, do we want to carry on with the Beatles? I do\u2026 If he doesn\u2019t come back by Tuesday we get Clapton,\u201d he says. Lennon allows that the group\u2019s lead guitarist may have some legit grievances: \u201cIt\u2019s a festering wound\u2026 and yesterday we allowed it to go even deeper, and we didn\u2019t even give him any bandages.\u201d He adds, seemingly more out of practicality than sympathy, \u201cIf we want him \u2013 I\u2019m still not sure whether I do want him \u2013 but if we do decide we want him as a policy, I can go along with that because the policy has kept us together.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>If there was a specific straw that broke the camel\u2019s back for Harrison, it does not appear to have been captured on tape, any more than his being lured back was. But the transcripts effectively set up the litany of complaints or grievances that made the early going at Twickenham so frustrating for all the members \u2014 the glare of the movie cameras; disagreement about whether to jam their way to finished songs or find a more formal approach; even sharper dissent over what kind of return to live performance they should be aiming for to cap the TV special\u2026 or whether it would even be for TV (ultimately it wasn\u2019t, of course). And George, with a bagful of songs that would ultimately mostly end up on his solo debut, feeling more like a tutored sideman than ever. He\u2019s already long been quoted as griping to McCartney, \u201cI\u2019ll play whatever you want me to play, or I won\u2019t play at all if you don\u2019t want me to play. You know, whatever it is that\u2019ll please you, I\u2019ll do it. But I don\u2019t think you really know what that one is.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>And we read more of McCartney\u2019s self-aware but not exactly relenting response, when Lennon tells him it\u2019s OK to dictate parts: \u201cI\u2019m scared of that one\u2026 me being the boss. And I have been for, like, a couple of years \u2013 and we all have, you know, no pretending about that.\u201d It\u2019s bracing, to read virtually in real time for the first time, just how much Real Talk was being laid out on the table.<\/p>\n<p>What\u2019s just as arresting is realizing how quickly this whole defeat-to-victory arc transpired \u2014 in just under a month of tracking \u2014 and how much \u201cthe lads,\u201d wisened veterans that they might have seemed, really did moments of realizing they were boys, in their late twenties. \u201cEver since Mr. Epstein passed away, says Harrison, referring to the 1967 death of manager Brian Epstein, \u201cit\u2019s never been the same.\u201d McCartney waxes philosophical: \u201cThere really is no one there now to say, \u2018Do that.\u2019 Whereas there always used to be. And we just sort of [used to think], \u2018Oh fucking hell, you know. Keep getting us up at 8?\u2019 But it\u2019s us that has to get us up at 8 now\u2026 that\u2019s only growing up. You know, your daddy goes away at a certain point in your life. You stand on your own feet. I mean, that\u2019s all we\u2019ve been faced with \u2014 Daddy\u2019s gone away now, you know, and we\u2019re on our own at the holiday camp.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In the loosely formed reconciliation that followed, then, you could choose to see a transformation from boys to men, as compromise ultimately prevailed for the length of an album and a half \u2014 recording on \u201cAbbey Road,\u201d arguably their pinnacle, followed within a few short months \u2014 before they reached that particular point of maturity when even a peaceable boys\u2019 club doesn\u2019t seem the place to be. And\/or outside villains entered the picture, with still sharper disputes over Allen Klein as Daddy #2. The band\u2019s last act is really a deep sigh, a regrettable tragedy and a Cinderella ending wrapped up in one big Rorschach ball.<\/p>\n<div class=\"post-content-image \/\/  alignnone wp-image-1235087103 size-full\">\n<figure class=\"o-figure   lrv-u-max-width-100p\" style=\"width:1024px\">\n<div class=\"c-lazy-image \">\n<div class=\"lrv-a-crop-16x9\" style=\"padding-bottom:calc((677\/1024)*100%);\">\n<p>            <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"c-lazy-image__img lrv-u-background-color-grey-lightest lrv-u-width-100p lrv-u-display-block lrv-u-height-auto\" src=\"https:\/\/variety.com\/wp-content\/themes\/pmc-variety-2020\/assets\/public\/lazyload-fallback.gif\" data-lazy-src=\"https:\/\/variety.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/RS36_Retail_2021GBBook_photo9-lpr.jpg\" alt=\"Lazy loaded image\" data-lazy-srcset=\"https:\/\/variety.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/RS36_Retail_2021GBBook_photo9-lpr.jpg 2000w, https:\/\/variety.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/RS36_Retail_2021GBBook_photo9-lpr.jpg?resize=150,99 150w, https:\/\/variety.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/RS36_Retail_2021GBBook_photo9-lpr.jpg?resize=300,198 300w\" data-lazy-sizes=\"(min-width: 87.5rem) 1000px, (min-width: 78.75rem) 681px, (min-width: 48rem) 450px, (max-width: 48rem) 250px\" height=\"677\" width=\"1024\"\/><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div><figcaption class=\"c-figcaption lrv-u-font-size-12 lrv-u-font-family-secondary lrv-u-width-100p lrv-u-text-align-left\">\n<p>                    <span class=\"lrv-u-font-size-14@desktop lrv-u-margin-t-050\">The Beatles film the rooftop sequence for the \u201cLet It Be\u201d film in January 1969, as pictured in the book \u201cGet Back\u201d<\/span><br \/>\n                            <cite class=\"lrv-u-color-grey u-font-family-basic\">Courtesy Apple<\/cite><\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<p>But as much as I\u2019ve been one of those who feared that the Peter Jackson docu-<a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/watch-movies-tv-seriess\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"8\" title=\"Watch Movies &amp; TV Series\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">series<\/a> might swing the pendulum so far away from Michael Lindsay-Hogg\u2019s 1970 documentary that it could count as a whitewash, it\u2019s hard to read the second half of this book and not share his enthusiasm for the sense of fun and play that emerged out of a more relaxed quartet. There\u2019s banter and wordplay left out of the band\u2019s last movie that almost fits the spirit of their first.<\/p>\n<p>And they\u2019re rocking. While this is not a dialogue passage, how much fun is it, if you love music at all, to read a description of an interstitial section on the tapes like: \u201cLed by George, the band fall into Randy Newman\u2019s \u2018Love Story (You and Me),\u2019 before playing Duane Eddy\u2019s \u2018Cannonball,\u2019 and the bluegrass and skiffle standard \u2018Last Train to San Fernando,\u2019 before calling it a day\u201d <em>\u2014 <\/em>marking the close of a pretty average day on the job for the ultimately more free-wheeling \u201cLet It Be\u201d sessions.<\/p>\n<p>Many mega-fans will already be familiar with some of the exchanges in the book, which have been previously paraphrased by authors who had access to the master tapes, though never laid out verbatim the way they are here, certainly. For most of us, though, the book provides delight after delight, along with its share of \u201cOh, damn\u201d moments.<\/p>\n<p>Reacting to \u201cI\u2019ve Got a Feeling\u201d starting to feel good, Lennon quips, \u201cWell, I\u2019ve got a hard-on!,\u201d then sings, \u201cEverybody had a hard-on,\u201d which McCartney perhaps inevitably answers with, \u201cExcept for me and my monkey.\u201d\u00a0 For sheer goofiness, it\u2019s hard to beat the day when Linda (then-) Eastman\u2019s daughter Heather comes into the studio with reports of baby kittens. \u201cMmm. Are you going to eat them?\u201d inquires Lennon. \u201cLots of people do, you know\u2026 You put pastry round them and you have cat pie.\u201d \u201cA few days they were just born, weren\u2019t they?\u201d protests Heather. \u201cOh, well, you better wait a week or two before you eat them.\u201d (How did she sleep, after that?)<\/p>\n<p>In a more grown-up exchange between the Lennon-McCartney camps, meanwhile, Paul seems genuinely curious as he pursues a line of questioning with John: \u201cCan you (and Yoko) see each other in the bag?\u201d Lennon: \u201cYes.\u201d McCartney: \u201cWhen you\u2019re in the bag?\u201d Lennon: \u201cYes. We\u2019re together in a bag.\u201d Paul: \u201cI know. But can you see each other inside when you\u2019re in the bag?\u201d This is comedy gold.<\/p>\n<p>And then there are a couple of telling exchanges toward the end, either one of which you could choose as your takeaway moment for the Beatles as they somewhat knowingly, somewhat unknowingly approach their swan song.<\/p>\n<p>The one that really reinforces the Jackson-ian vision of \u201cLet It Be\u201d as an experience that turned into a high-spirited romp comes when Lennon and Harrison, the two bigger cynics of this whole experience, can\u2019t stop gushing about how well the sessions are going. \u201cIt\u2019s such a high when you get home\u2026 I\u2019m just so high when I get in at night,\u201d Lennon enthuses. \u201cYeah, it\u2019s great, isn\u2019t it?\u201d agrees the now ex-ex-member Harrison. Continues Lennon, \u201cI was just sitting there listening to the last takes: \u2018What have I had?&#8217;\u201d (Meaning drugs.) \u201cYou know, I ask her, \u2018Have we had anything?\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n<p>And then, for portent, we have a dialogue between John, Yoko and engineer Glyn Johns about a new potential savior who\u2019s entered the situation\u2026 attorney Allen Klein. Lennon and Ono can\u2019t stop rhapsodizing him, but Johns is subtle in trying to introduce a note of caution to the new zealots: \u201cStrange guy, isn\u2019t he?\u2026 He\u2019s very, very clever\u2026 And he\u2019ll ask you a question, and you\u2019re halfway through answering it, and if he doesn\u2019t like the answer, or if it\u2019s not what he really wanted to hear, he\u2019ll change the subject right in the middle of a sentence.\u201d Ono says, casually, \u201cOh yeah. I can imagine it, yeah.\u201d Johns isn\u2019t finished: \u201cThat bugs me a bit, actually.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>But, of course, it was the Beatles responsible for their own demise, and subsequent phoenix-like qualities as stand-alone artists, not handlers or influencers. And you can only feel so sad that all things must pass. There\u2019s something that kind of says it all when they\u2019re having one last very minor squabble about whether to proceed with the rooftop concert scheduled for the following day, after much prior gnashing of teeth about whether it should have been in a TV studio, along a beach or on a barge. Harrison says he still is really not into it, here, at the last minute. McCartney is having some second thoughts, too. Ringo, though, pipes up: \u201cI would like to go on the roof.\u201d Lennon agrees. Paul utters a simple two-word phrase: <em>\u201cDiverse people.\u201d<\/em> Yes, they were.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<div class=\"article-tags \/\/ a-children-icon-bullet lrv-u-font-family-primary u-letter-spacing-012 lrv-u-line-height-large lrv-u-color-brand-primary\">\n<h2 id=\"optional-screen-reader\" class=\"lrv-a-screen-reader-only\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"optional_screen_reader\"><\/span>\n        optional screen reader  <span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<nav class=\"o-nav  o-nav lrv-u-border-b-1 u-border-color-brand-secondary-40 lrv-u-border-t-1 lrv-u-text-align-center lrv-u-padding-b-025 u-padding-t-050@desktop u-padding-t-050@tablet u-padding-t-050@mobile-max lrv-u-margin-t-2 lrv-u-margin-b-2\" data-dropdown=\"\">\n<h4 id=\"\" class=\"o-nav__title lrv-u-color-black lrv-u-font-family-secondary o-nav__title a-content-ignore u-line-height-140 u-letter-spacing-0002\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Read_More_About\"><\/span>Read More About:<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<\/nav>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<p><script type=\"text\/plain\" class=\"optanon-category-C0004\">\n  !function(f, b, e, v, n, t, s) {\n    if (f.fbq) return;\n    n = f.fbq = function() {\n      n.callMethod ?\n          n.callMethod.apply(n, arguments) : n.queue.push(arguments);\n    };\n    if (!f._fbq) f._fbq = n;\n    n.push = n;\n    n.loaded = !0;\n    n.version = '2.0';\n    n.queue = [];\n    t = b.createElement(e);\n    t.async = !0;\n    t.src = v;\n    s = b.getElementsByTagName(e)[0];\n    s.parentNode.insertBefore(t, s);\n  }(window, document, 'script',\n      'https:\/\/connect.facebook.net\/en_US\/fbevents.js');\n  fbq('init', '586935388485447');\n  fbq('init', '315552255725686');\n  fbq('track', 'PageView');\n<\/script><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
