Description

The Beatles’ sessions, which took place throughout January 1969, are commonly known as the “Get Back Sessions.” After the White Album, the relationship between the members had been strained, and Paul was the one who was most worried that the group would fall apart. So Paul took the lead and planned a new project. Although they had stopped performing live since 1966, Paul thought that they needed to perform live to strengthen their unity, and proposed going on a concert tour again. However, John and George were reluctant to go on tour again, and they had to give up. Next, a proposal was made to hold a one-time live performance of new songs only, film it, and release it. In fact, Monthly (a fan club magazine) at the time held a lottery for that one-time live performance. However, as you know, it ultimately fell through at the planning stage. In the end, the outline was completed: The Beatles would record a new album in the studio, film the recording, and finally play the new songs they had recorded in a live format, without an audience. This is the outline of the session that would later be called the “Get Back Sessions”. It was a project that changed several times from its original concept. In order to return to their roots, they decided not to overdub and instead to play simple rock music, and recording began on January 2, 1969. Since the recording was intended to be filmed, they brought the recording equipment to Twickenham Film Studios in London, prioritizing the filming environment, rather than the familiar Abbey Road Studios. However, in winter in London, surrounded by a spacious film studio and cameramen filming their every move, the recording atmosphere was not good at all. The members had no intention of quitting, their playing was lazy, and they just strummed their guitars as they thought of it. Ironically, the project that began with the aim of encouraging unity among the members increased tension between them, and revealed in front of the camera that they were not as united as they once were. The argument between Paul and George on January 10th was a symbol of this. This scene was famously used in the film, and George’s rebellious attitude towards Paul, who was always interfering with the other members, was painful to watch. Filming and recording at Twickenham Studios continued until January 16, but it was far from fruitful, and as a result, none of the footage was used in the album “Let It Be,” produced by Phil Spector. The Beatles then moved to Apple Studios in the basement of the Apple headquarters building four days later, on January 20, and resumed recording. George, who thought that an outsider’s eyes were needed to ease the tension between the members, invited Billy Preston to the session as a keyboardist. Billy Preston was the second person to be officially credited as a Beatles collaborator, following Tony Sheridan. The atmosphere at the Apple Studios was different from that at Twickenham Studios, as Billy Preston acted as a buffer, and the “magic” of the Beatles was starting to happen again. And unlike the slow performances up until then, it is also notable for being a highly polished work that shows the enthusiasm of recording new songs. This is how the second half of the Get Back Sessions began. The Get Back Sessions began with the aim of turning the recording scenes themselves into a work, so a huge amount of audio and video footage remains. Many of them are scattered, or the discussion scenes, which are very interesting for enthusiasts, but it cannot be denied that there are some boring parts to appreciate as music. Since the analog era, many titles have been created by editing the listening points, but this is also where the editor’s sense is called into question. Under such circumstances, “GET BACK JOURNALS” has long been loved as a monumental work. “GET BACK JOURNALS II”, along with “GET BACK JOUNALS”, is a best-of album of this session that spans four discs. It boasts the perfect volume and content for a starting point, so even those who are not fond of the Get Back Sessions can enjoy it. Another feature not found in the original is that this album credits the date on which each performance was recorded. When it was released, data was still not organized, but with the progress of research since then, it is now clear which performance was recorded on which day, and this is noted on this album. Includes a complete reprint of the classic album “GET BACK JOURNALS II.” This is a must-have title to have along with “GET BACK JOURNALS.” DISC ONE JANUARY 3, 1969 01. Sun King 02. Improvisation 03.
