The blue plaque (see quick description) is the only evidence that anything happened here.
In June 1968, this address (3 Savile Row) became The Beatles Apple Corps. headquarters, and it was here where the Beatles played their last ever gig. On 30 January 1969, they performed their latest recordings from the Let it Be album on the rooftop. The police were called due to noise complaints, and the free concert was stopped after 45 minutes. This last performance was filmed and later released for the Let it Be film. Also in Get Back.
John Lennon famously concluded the show, saying: ‘I would like to say thank you on behalf of the group and ourselves and I hope we’ve passed the audition.’
Watch Let It Be or Get Back for more info. Erected 8am on April 5th, 2019.
