63: The Beatles on the Telly

SATB 63

In this special extended episode, Robert and Richard discuss the group’s career through the prism of their television appearances. Rather than music performances per se, the focus here is on the occasions where they were tapped for their comedic skills, or interview situations that offered viewers insights into how they saw themselves at the time, and how these appearances evolved, along with their artistry and group dynamic.

  1. At the end of one of the featured interviews I heard Ringo use the phrase “Tomorrow Never Knows.” Is that where John got the title for the song he wrote later? (as he did for “A Hard Day’s Night”).

  5. What a brilliant show! Good work. The charm, wit, intelligence and all-round charisma of the Fabs really shines through on those early TV appearances.
    I listen to 4 Beatles themed podcasts on a regular basis and yours is top of the pops.
    All the best from NZ.

    Excellent show, thank you.

    Very post Beatles, but one my all time favourite Fabs TV appearances is George’s “Pirate Show” appearance on Rutland Weekend TV.

    It’s on YouTube if you haven’t seen it. (And I bet you all have!)
