On this day: January 30, 1969

Passerby's lucky enough to be outside of Apple Corps headquarters on January 30, 1969 were among the few to see the last ever live performance by The Beatles who had an impromptu concert on the roof.

The concert was being filmed for an upcoming documentary about the Fab 4, called Let it Be. Unfortunately, the concert lasted only 42 minutes as cops were called due to noise complaints from neighboring buildings. If only they knew back then what a huge part of music history they were stopping....

The Beatles were playing a new song; Get Back, when the music stopped. And the four guys from Liverpool would never play live together again.
