THE BEATLES ANTHOLOGY
Paul McCartney
This was still a time of wonderment on both sides of the equation. The world couldn't believe this magnificent four-headed creation could continue to be so delightfully entertaining and impudent and the creature
couldn't believe the world could be so nice. Wherever they went now, first America, then Europe, the Far East and Australasia, and back to Liverpool for the special 'local premiere of A Hard Day's Night, they brought Beatlemania with them. They couldn't help it; it was a form of real love.
George would say many years later that the world used them as an excuse to go mad and then blamed it on the Beatles, but there is a parallel theory that it was time for the world to go that sort of mad - get down a bit, loosen up, and, like Uncle John in Long Tall Sally, have some fun tonight. The crowd scenes in this segment are awesome and, in retrospect awful. How did no-one get killed? The bloom of success was still fresh in the story herein.
Success, well earned, in the struggles for recognition, is now assumed as a natural state.
All the records are number one, both singles
and albums and educated America is now in thrall to them. The Beatles sweep through the
great US cities, drawing tens of thousands to airports for the merest glimpse.
They play for no more than half an hour per concert. A Hard Day's Night has guaranteed them star status in the cinema and they laughed their way through Help! in Technicolor. Paul dreams that he has written Yesterday - and has. They are the first group to play a baseball stadium, Shea in New York, breaking records for crowd fever, numbers and good cheer. Oh, and they go to Buckingham Palace to receive medals from the Queen and, by now, more or less accept it as their due. They are, however, as happy and polite as can be. Life is now almost all fun, albeit with a strand of stress now slicing through it.
Please note: This Laserdisc is in the NTSC format.
