On January 30, 1969, The Beatles gave their final live performance from the rooftop of Apple Records in London, England. The concert was a surprise and lasted 42 minutes. The concert was recorded for the 1970 documentary film Let It Be, and the Beatles played nine takes of five songs. In this video, one of the police officers sent to shut down the concert remembers getting to witness the concert, saying: “And despite my instructions to arrest The Beatles along with my colleagues, no one was ever going to do that because to have done so would have ended perhaps what would become the greatest concert that ever happened”.
