Great recreation of their ‘mad day out’ at St Pancras Old Church… it’s actually a very cool place to visit, even though it’s in a really busy area, it kind of sits in its own dreamy little oasis which has a timeless, peaceful vibe about it!
Fascinating. I love the Beatles Mad Day Out. This was very well done, juxtaposing the original photos with the park as it currently is. I must go there next time I'm in London. All the Victorian buildings give this part of the Mad Day Out a certain Gothic feel.
I used to leave in Camden Town in 2000s and taking the footpath of Regent's canal in the way to King Cross/St.Pancras to that church , to read a book, papers..... this place was so relaxing and enjoyable in the weekdays to my mind. And looking now, these pictures of the fab four there make my day. RIP John and George!
I’m for ever chasing. The Beatles around looking. And reading. Into their fascinating. History and I did this walk with the aid of the mad day out book so when I came across this I watched and went wow how very clever what you have done. It’s allmost bought them back to like 3 D style love the pictures their voices and camera. Thus is really a great watch 🙏
This is another locale that I've always wondered 'where' the photos were taken. It's very cool how it doesn't seem to change much with time. Here in California (where I live) everything is altered, remodeled, torn down, obliterated & added on-to. The only things that stay the same are official 'historical' places / buildings with plaques. Even some of those change. England is so awesome & I say that not as an over-used teemager phrase. The UK really IS awesome.🙂
I'm from South East London & I'm sorry to tell you most of London HAS changed enormously since the 60's & not for the better either. Of course there are still some great historic places to visit (throughout the country, not just London) especially if your from the States. There are some hidden gems off the tourist trail in London & you are welcome to come & find them🇬🇧
Good job. It is like a dream the way you move the camera around, then settle on something, and The Beatles appear and are gone, all with mysterious White Album music. I remember the crowd photos in the gatefold of the Blue Album Greatest Hits, my first exposure to Beatles music.
Ringo's bright yellow shirt was in a photo included in the White album. So this was before Abby Road. Unless Ringo wears the same shirt often- which I doubt.
amazing video...i was wondering if you had any knowledge of the actual seat they were sitting on and if it was the same one and if that seat has been moved...as im sure your aware, there is a seat there with a plaque on it saying that was the seat they sat in....however, looking at the angle of the original photo's it seems very different to were the seat is situated now....thank you.
It seems there is some confusion as to the exact date of this photo shoot, or perhaps there were different photo sessions. In the booklet that goes with the early greatest hits of the Beatles, the attribution states, "St. Pancras, Old Church, London, 22 July 69." I'd really like to know the factual date when these photos were taken. It matters. Let's get the facts straight. Only one date can be correct; however, unlikely as it is, both could be incorrect. At this particular time in the history of popular music, a year makes a big difference, because we know what preceded it and what was coming. This was a seminal moment.
I got off the train from Paris at that station... if only I'd known 😃. Btw, this video seems to have a fuller version of the Revolution 9 piano piece, is the major-key section also part of the same piece? Do you know what the piece is? There seems to be other Revolution 9 source material there too... and was George's 'one more time' spliced in from 'Piggies' or is it source material too?
Yes, the piece is Robert Schumann's "Symphonische Etüden" Op. 13 (nr. XII: ‘Allegro brillante’). See "How The Analogues re-created Revolution 9" in FURORE Magazine 24 (2019), p. 82.
@@pietschreuders8311 thanks, those études are wonderful, but I was mainly referring to the slow opening waltz theme in Bm, do you know what piece that's from?
@@pietschreuders8311 Yeah, that's a tricky one. It seems that there's a mistake (at 0:16?) in it so it's not a released classical piece. What's interesting about the Schumann snippet is that it's symmetrical in pitch so that it sounds similar when played forwards and backwards. If you are interested in more details about Revolution 9, this might interest you (the Schumann is listed as unknown): search for 'Revolution number 9' by Ian Hammond
Strikes me how much better the place looked 50 years ago.
Summer looks better than autumn
Usually the way...
Britain can’t afford to run the National health system properly. Imagine that public gardens are gonna feel too well
The Beatles in the Hollyhock garden are some of the most iconic photos ever taken of them.
That was really enjoyable. Seems like they still enjoyed being around each other.That's all i was thinking while watching this. the end is near.
💯
Loved this. Reminded me of when I used to look at the inner gatefold picture of the Beatles 62-66 and 67-70 albums (the Red and Blue albums)
You're right!

I really enjoyed this Amazing compilation especially remembering my first Beatles Blue Album as a kid ...Thank you
Great video. Included many pictures I’d not seen before!
Brilliant. Enjoyed this very much 👍
Brilliantly made video. Loved it.
Sehr schön gemacht mit damals/heute vergleich. Danke.

Well done, Sir! Thank you!
Loved the video and the spook the music/chatter provided. It was so pretty back in the late 60s. They need some flowers such. Looks dead now.
Great to have the chance of appreciating the place!
Greetings from Chile.

That's my school friend with the beatles. The blonde boy who is in front of the railings. Terry harper.
I visited about 5 years ago…..love walking in the Beatles footsteps!
They are standing still..!
Fantastic video, great job, Mate 👏👏👏
Very, very well done. Subscribed. From Sydney.
Dank je wel voor dit prachtig stukje muzikale archeologie :-)
Very well put together video.
Loved this. Next timeI’m down in London I must visit there and take some pics,
Ringo's bright yellow shirt was in a photo included in the White album. So this was before Abby Road. Unless Ringo wears the same shirt often- which I doubt.
Well done and thank you very much for video,thoroughly enjoyable.
Phantastic....
Exelente video con el sonido de fondo crea una interesante atmosfera
Great effort. Thank you!
Amazing! Thank you!
Long gone happy days... before love was replaced by eternal hate...miss those days..!!!!!!
Wonderful video 😊❤️
Thanks for posting. I always wondered where the pic behind the iron fence with all the people was taken. I wonder where they got all the fans from.
So did I .. :-) ☮️
.
They were just people who happened to be there that day.
love this so much !
Interesting, well shot and well put together! Fab!
Mad Day Out was quite sane, in the best possible way.
Beautiful
This is awesome!! Thank you for sharing this!! 👏
FABulous thank you
Need to get there with Hollyhock seeds and get them established there again 😊❤
Hmm. This has made me so happy
La vida es un recuerdo en presente y pasado.
Nice work
Now that was pretty cool
Extraordinary
Nice video thanks
cool!
I did something like this but with a video
it's more interesting to see your hand appearing in the frame and adjusting the photo ;)
like in 2:58 :)
Mark it FAB.
Great job, piet
Was that a nod to The Byrds greatest hits cover , when they posed in the flower section near the church ?

Yes, the seat with the plaque on it is not in exactly the same place. Whether the seat itself is the same, I don't know, but it seems unlikely.
@@pietschreuders8311 thank you so much.
Mooi gedaan Piet!
well done in Beatle quirkiness,
Creepy and great at the same time
Very cool.

It was Sunday, July 28, 1968.
Where did you find the audio to go with it? This was very enjoyable.
Ah! Back then, someone did put effort to grow those glorious biennial hollyhocks of every color. You sow them this summer, they bloom next.

what is the name of the background music? it's a mixture of revolution 9 and random clips, but does it have a name?
See multiple comments below.
Where is the film of this mad day with the Beatles
There are no moving images. It was a photo session.
@@pietschreuders8311 Seeing Mal Evans in the background of at least one of the images, there may well have been a film record of this day.
@@michaelricco81 There isn't.
@@3replybiz Were you there?
Are the railings at the end of the video still bare?
The railings are similar, but not quite the same as in 1968, as you can see in the video.
@@pietschreuders8311 thanks Piet. Was going to visit and was worried that they had grown a hedge there.
I was there for the first time a decade or so ago and the railings had been removed. Then on my last visit about two years ago they were back.
Where did U get the audio ?
Part of it is from revolution nine
What is this music?
Loops and various snippets from “Revolution 9”.
beautifully done, with poignancy,
Very cool.
