andyv Posted September 17, 2016 Share Posted September 17, 2016 I saw the movie last night - it was excellent, and brought back great memories. What absolutely outstanding musicians they were, and when they were young so much energy and joy. After the movie ended, there was also a half hour of the Shea Stadium concert remastered. The sound wasn't that great, but I guess it was as good as could be got. Paul said that they got VOX to make them special amplifiers - all of 100Watts!! - for the gig. The music was played back through the stadiums PA - small metal horns, like little megaphones. Ringo said he couldn't hear a thing, he just watched Johns backside and Paul shaking his head to stay in time! Link to comment
firedog Posted September 17, 2016 Share Posted September 17, 2016 AFAIR, actually Ringo was the most popular - with both sexes. I do remember the other 3 joking about how he got the most fan mail in interviews. Main listening (small home office): Main setup: Surge protector +>Isol-8 Mini sub Axis Power Strip/Isolation>QuietPC Low Noise Server>Roon (Audiolense DRC)>Stack Audio Link II>Kii Control>Kii Three (on their own electric circuit) >GIK Room Treatments. Secondary Path: Server with Audiolense RC>RPi4 or analog>Cayin iDAC6 MKII (tube mode) (XLR)>Kii Three . Bedroom: SBTouch to Cambridge Soundworks Desktop Setup. Living Room/Kitchen: Ropieee (RPi3b+ with touchscreen) + Schiit Modi3E to a pair of Morel Hogtalare. All absolute statements about audio are false Link to comment
Jud Posted September 17, 2016 Share Posted September 17, 2016 AFAIR, actually Ringo was the most popular - with both sexes. I do remember the other 3 joking about how he got the most fan mail in interviews. Not even close - all the girls I knew thought Paul was cutest, George next. John's "era" was just a little before they hit it big, when he had a bad boy ("Teddy boy") charisma - see the cover of John's "Rock 'n' Roll" album. Ringo was thought to have nice eyes, and learned that when he shook his head to make his hair fly around, all the girls would scream. (They screamed whenever one of the boys did so much as smile or look up. Sometimes it didn't even take that much.) One never knows, do one? - Fats Waller The fairest thing we can experience is the mysterious. It is the fundamental emotion which stands at the cradle of true art and true science. - Einstein Computer, Audirvana -> optical Ethernet to Fitlet3 -> Fibbr Alpha Optical USB -> iFi NEO iDSD DAC -> Apollon Audio 1ET400A Mini (Purifi based) -> Vandersteen 3A Signature.

TubeLover Posted September 18, 2016 Share Posted September 18, 2016 I'm surprised at how limited the movie's distribution is. It's only available at two theaters in all of the Detroit metropolitan area. JC Link to comment
