From Revolver to Let It Be, That Magic Feeling: The Beatles Recorded Legacy, Volume Two, 1966—1970, continues the chronicle of the group’s spectacular career from its creative zenith to its irrevocable split

As the Beatles moved into the mid and late 1960s, their collective and individual musical talent and innovations evolved at an unparalleled pace. Like its companion volume, Way Beyond Compare: The Beatles’ Recorded Legacy, Volume One, 1957—1965, this unique work thoroughly chronicles all known and available Beatles recordings during this period of incredible creative growth.

Have you ever watched a Beatles film clip and wondered:
• Where was that filmed?
• Is any more of that footage available?

Have you ever heard a Beatles interview and asked:
• When was that taped?
• Where’s the best place to find the complete recording?

That Magic Feeling answers these and thousands of similar questions. With more than 500 entries, it includes recording sessions, concerts, newsreel footage, press clips, TV and film performances, home movies, radio interviews, documentaries, studio outtakes, home demos, and alternative mixes–all of which are given complete coverage for the first time.

Author John C. Winn has spent two decades poring over, scrutinizing, organizing, and analyzing hundreds of hours of audio and video recordings and compiling them into a digestible chronological framework, creating the ultimate reference guide to the Beatles’ legendary musical and cultural evolution.

Paul’s house in St. John’s Wood. John inadvertently subjects Beatles fans to an interminably repeated anecdote from Paul’s lips by making him keep the line “The movement you need is on your shoulder.” Paul reportedly ruins Mick Jagger’s twenty-fifth birthday party/Stones’ Beggars Banquet album unveiling/Mick and Keith’s coowned Vesuvio Club opening night festivities by playing an advance copy of “Hey Jude” and stealing the Stones’ spotlight. However, the Beatles have not even recorded the song

(track 5), shuffling drums, guitar fills, and electric piano (track 6), a snare drum backbeat for the middle eights (track 7), and organ and lead guitar (track 8). The snippet in the Anthology video (B) is a remix of the song’s ending, with John’s muttering (you know, “mih ssim, mih ssim, nam daed si luaP”) entering earlier and the guitar from track 8 more prominent. What seem to be extracts from the mixing session have survived on a rough mix tape, although these are not finished mixes, just

Director: Michael Lindsay-Hogg It’s clear that without some resolution to the conflict with George, nothing productive will come of further sessions. Nonetheless, Michael keeps the cameras rolling in hopes that something usable will happen. Paul sits at the piano and expounds on chord theory, joined by Ringo for a bit of Jerry Lee Lewis keyboard pounding. With John and George absent, Glyn Johns noodles away on a guitar in the background. John and Yoko return from their CBC interview, and

At the end of July, John’s remark to Maureen Cleave about the Beatles being “more popular than Jesus” was reprinted in Datebook, a U.S. magazine for teens. Within a week, aided by a publicity-starved radio station in Alabama, a crisis was brewing that threatened the group’s imminent American tour. To quell the situation, Brian Epstein roused himself from bed in North Wales, where he was recovering from glandular fever, and flew to New York City on August 5. At the same time, a plan was made for
