Wow - Peter Jackson's "Get Back", nearly 9 hours on the Beatles making of Let It Be album [View all]

On Disney Plus. I remember our teacher playing "Meet the Beatles" for our class back in 1964 (I was born in 1956) - I've loved the group ever since, became a guitar player because of wanting to emulate George Harrison (and was in some pretty bad bands as a teen!).....for a Beatles enthusiast, and for anyone who found "Let it Be" incredibly depressing that wants to see the real situation behind the recording of that album, this is a must. Yes, it is long - but watching the amazing encyclopedic knowledge of pop songs come through as the group ripped off all sorts of impromptu stuff, watching how George felt belittled by John and Paul (and watching how Paul, in general, kind of bullied things along at that time)....seeing John sing, his relationship with Yoko, seeing how great a guitar player HE was, Ringo's self effacement and charm and humor. What an amazing experience.

We are most way through part 2. In part three the entire 45 minute rooftop concert is supposedly included. Sound and video quality are amazing.

Anyone else enjoying it? What an amazing creation this is.
