The Beatles are my all-time favorite band (The Rolling Stones, awesome as they are, are a distant #2). I have found over the years that a lot of people who like The Beatles — which seems to be almost everyone — mostly know the songs that have been played a lot on the radio, which admittedly are quite numerous. However, I think more than half of their very best songs are the ones that you only get to know by listening to all of their albums start to finish.
Anyway, “Get Back” is a fascinating and insightful look at the band in the studio. And based on that documentary, as well as the many Beatles books I have read over the years, people have gotten it 100% wrong when they think they broke up because they hated each other. That is anything but the truth. These guys truly cared for one another even through all of the squabbling (which was actually relatively minor in the big scheme of things) and tensions of being in the most famous band that has ever existed. They just could not continue to withstand the searing white-hot spotlight that had been on them for seven long years.
I highly recommend “The Beatles: Get Back” for hardcore Beatles fans as well as for anyone who enjoys great music.
