Stones and Beatles footage
Maybe the last time The Beatles dressed alike?

The greatest bill ever: Beatles, Stones, Who, Small Faces, Yardbirds, Spencer Davis Group, Roy Orbison, Dusty, and others.
BTW, notice Paul's chipped front tooth?

That was the old Paul, before he died in a car accident and was replaced by a lookalike who could also write, sing, and play bass just like him.

It's a shame the performances by the Beatles and Stones were not recorded.

Why wouldn't they have been recorded since The Yardsbirds were (for instance)?
EDIT: Oh so The Beatles & Rolling Stones sets weren't allowed to be filmed...

Yes, from what I was told.

This is correct. Neither band agreed to be filmed. To settle who would get top billing, the show was split into two halves. The Stones closed the first part, and The Beatles closed the second.

No. They were the show closers.
I've been to a few events where the headliner didnt close the show (maybe down to their own choice)
Van Morrison at last year's 'London Feis' at Finsbury Park being an example - he was the headline act but one or two bands did their sets after him.
You could say its a bit like boxing. Sometimes after the 'main event', you get a fight between two of the guys who were lower down the bill....usually it takes place in front of two men and a dog, mind you.

You're not trying to tell me that the Stones in 1966 were the Beatles equal as a live concert draw, are you?

Admit it. Aren't you just a little surprised that this late in their career (only a year before Let It Be) someone got them to put on matching shirts and act as if they were still the lovable mop tops of 1964?

Brian Epstein and Andrew Loog Oldham got in a big fight over who would close the show.

Surprising also that in 1965 when donning disguises in the film Help they anticipated uncannily the look of their later period.
Is that Yoko's reflection in the mirror????
