50 years ago this date The Beatles performed live for the last time on the rooftop in London
And just like that, it was over. "A Toot and a Snore in '74" and Ringo Star's "Ringo" were as close as we ever got to hearing them ever perform together again. There were discussions between the members of doing it all over again in the late '70's, but John's death put an end to it.
I will be going to see Paul in July this year for my birthday.

I’m reading The Lives of John Lennon right now and I’m at the rooftop concert. The author is NOT complimentary to Y.O. I saw Paul about ten years ago maybe fifteen he plays three hour shows that are fantastic. I’d go this summer but I could buy a Musical Fidelity integrated amp for what they want for tickets.

The demo reel for the songs of The Beatles White Album. Just a couple acoustic guitars and the band playing at George Martin's house with a 4 track recorder.
Beautiful recording that takes you inside the music and the relationships within the band like no other recording I have heard to date.

Love that song!
Bad to the Bone
George Thorogood
On the day I was born
The nurses all gathered 'round
And they gazed in wide wonder
At the joy they had found
[ The head nurse spoke up
And she said leave this one alone
She could tell right away
That I was bad to the bone[/b]
Bad to the bone
Bad to the bone
B-B-B-B-Bad
B-B-B-B-Bad
B-B-B-B-Bad
Bad to the bone
I broke a thousand hearts
Before I met you
I'll break a thousand more, baby
Before I am through
I wanna be yours pretty baby
Yours and yours alone
I'm here to tell ya honey
That I'm bad to the bone
Bad to the bone
B-B-B-Bad
B-B-B-Bad
B-B-B-Bad
Bad to the bone
I make a rich woman beg
I'll make a good woman steal
I'll make an old woman blush
And make a young girl squeal
I wanna be yours pretty baby
Yours and yours alone
I'm here to tell ya honey
That I'm bad to the bone
B-B-B-B-Bad
B-B-B-B-Bad
B-B-B-B-Bad
Bad to the bone
Now when I walk the streets
Kings and Queens step aside
Every woman I meet
They all stay satisfied
I wanna tell ya pretty baby
Well ya see I make my own
I'm here to tell ya honey
That I'm bad to the bone
Bad to the bone
B-B-B-B-Bad
B-B-B-Bad
B-B-B-Bad
(Hoo) bad to the bone
