took the stage of the Candlestick Stadium San Francisco 21.27 . They played 11 songs . And while the public was hardly the end of the US tour, they knew they would not return to the path . As a tacit pact, they rose smiling and time take many photos were taken.
What were the reasons that led the band to make that decision ? Were multiple causes that unbalanced the balance. They had their musical reasons for not wanting to continue to endure extensive touring, but also personal reasons and the environment.
Just a few days, the Beatles had released Revolver , the album that revolutionized his discography : with its innovative sound, he closed one stage but opened another. Gone were the years of the freshness and innocence, full of songs about love in its many facets, with catchy melodies. Suddenly, maturity was already a fact. Sang on the row to pay very high taxes and could afford to speak of sadness or displayed nostalgic
Of course, to stage “ Eleanor Rigby” or “Tomowwor never knows” was virtually impossible for the sound requirements of the songs but also by the lack of atmosphere in the audience (fans shouted without paying attention to musical detail). They musicians now consolidated and no longer conformed mass hysteria. They wanted to be considered for their music.
Although still the relationship between the four was good, beginning to glimpse the individualities and team spirit lost strength. John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison and Ringo Starr had grown and had consecrated together but now wanted to follow their inner voice. John was married to Cinthia Powell but marriage just over three years weighed heavily on the minds of Lennon. Not be long before his life changed forever. In November at an art gallery met Yoko Ono and what was brewing inside, occurred
Paul , although boyfriend, was the coveted singles : left, cultivating social relations in the London nightlife and exploring new trends in art. George was married to model Pattie Boyd and was increasingly interested in the sounds of oriental music . Ringo he had become the second band to experience fatherhood and little desire had to be away from Maureen and Zak, your baby almost a year.
And as they had changed, the environment had done the same. In the first visit to the United States in February 1964, they found a country still in mourning after the death of President John F Kennedy but two and a half later the weather was different. Statements Lennon about Christianity (had said they were more famous than Jesus) to a British newspaper in March 1966 were quoted by US media about the tour and unleashed a wave of demonstrations against , burning discs and even death threats. While Lennon tried to explain and apologize for his words, the wick was already on.
they ripped the last show as a cover of “ Rock and Roll music” ( Chuck Berry , a favorite of John Lennon). Then they were going “She’sa woman” , “If I Needed Someone” and the time of George, “Day Tripper”, “Baby’s in black”, ” I feel fine “,” Yesterday “,” I wanna be your man “with the voice of Ringo,” Nowhere man, “” Paperback Writer “and by the end end . Another nod to the audience and the stage they left behind. “Long Tall Sally” , Little Richard
After the show, told the witnesses and members of the staff of the band that, far from being sad all four were summoned for a photo on stage back to the audience. When boarding the plane, George topped with a phrase that made it clear they were serious, “ Right, that’s all. I’m not a Beatle more “
