  5. El edificio se encuentra en el 3 de Savile Row, barrio de Mayfair, a unas pocas cuadras de Picadilly Circus en Londres. La vieja construcción, erigida en 1735, se hizo conocida porque allí funcionaban las oficinas de Apple fundada por #TheBeatles. Pero los cuatro de Liverpool, junto a Billy Preston, llevarían adelante un hecho a la vez histórico y que inspiraría a otras bandas a hacer lo mismo (que extraño ¿no?): El #RooftopConcert. Es decir, salieron a tocar a la terraza. Éste sería el último recital que llevarían adelante el frío 30 de enero de 1969, con toda la convulsión que generaría en la zona. #EfemeridesRock

  6. @marian ja. Lohnt sich aber hauptsächlich für Fans. Das "Rooftop Concert" hingegen ist kurzweilig und auch für Nicht-Beatles-Fans sehenswert. Auch (oder gerade) im Kino #Beatles #TheBeatles #GetBack #LetItBe #cinema #Kino
    Jetzt warte ich darauf, dass das #rooftopconcert endlich auch physisch oder als Download erhältlich ist.
