That’s been around forever, it’s a clip from the June 24, 1966 Munich concert that someone had the audacity to colorize. Here’s the full unmolested B&W show…I just saw this video I had never seen before figured I'd share
Using their recently acquired Vox UL series hybrid amps(and a Klemt Echolette PA), they reverted to their older gear just a few weeks later at the Budokan in Tokyo…
Their set starts at 16:00 and was actually videotaped in color.
It’s interesting how, in just a few months they’d be starting in on the SF/PL/Peppers sessions, yet live they’re still opening with Chuck Berry.
I’ve never seen it so thanks anyway to the OP. Cool to see the big Echolette’s and the Vox Conquerors (?)… I think (even for me as I prefer my amps more « tubby »).
Also, Yesterday with full band arrangement
. I guess a Vox Continental as keyboard too? Any idea why they abandoned their SS gear, maybe not reliable as it was the first gen of Germanium transistors?

It is always remarkable to me just how in tune the vocals are and how tight they are considering they have no monitors.
Those hours and hours of playing in Hamburg really forged an unstoppable machine.

I’ve honestly never listened too closely to live Beatles performances, but I distinctly remember one of my music professors at undergrad insisting that George Harrison’s singing at the Shea Stadium concert was horribly out of tune.
Weird the things that stick with you…
His guitar was badly out of tune, but his vocals were fine.
George probably couldn't hear his guitar. I doubt any of them could. They had 100watt amps going up against a crowd of 55,000 that was generating an estimated 130 decibels.
With a combination of proprioception and bone conduction they were all able to sing pretty well in tune despite the jet-engine-like roar of the Shea crowd.
