Get Back to Let It Be

In 1969, filmmaker Sir Michael Lindsay-Hogg shot more than 50 hours of footage of the Beatles as they wrote their final iconic album, "Let it Be." From the first rehearsals to the impromptu rooftop concert that turned out to be their last performance, the intimate clips captured the final days before the Fab Four split. Today, those recordings are featured in "The Beatles: Get Back," a new Disney+ docu-series about those last days by "Lord of the Rings" trilogy director Peter Jackson. On this episode of "The Eagle," Times Union Editor-in-Chief Casey Seiler connects with Lindsey-Hogg, now a Hudson resident in his 80s, about his film, the new series, and what it was like working with the Beatles. Also on this episode, Brendan Lyons discusses the key takeaways of the state Assembly investigation report into the alleged misconduct of former Gov. Andrew Cuomo. And Shaniece Holmes-Brown talks about covering a new service for unsheltered people in the region. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
