John Lennon was a unique live performer, both with The Beatles and in his solo career, though following his split with the Fabs he showed a reluctance to play full concerts and so we should cherish what little we have in that regard. This 2-parter on John’s live career sees documentarian Chris Purcell make a welcome return to the show. In this part, we look at the Beatles’ live work up to Candlestick Park in 1966 and Chris casts his expert eye on the films made of some of their concerts

Enjoy!
