This really says it all, doesn’t it? It’s clear from this shot that John, George, Paul, and Ringo are completely over being in The Beatles. Not only are they dressed completely differently than one another, a subtle hint at the way they’ve grown apart, but they don’t look happy to be around one another.
Think about photos of The Beatles from early in their career. The young lads from Liverpool looked as if they had the world on a saucer and they were ready to drink it up. In this final photo it’s as if they’d all rather be somewhere else.
In their final performance the boys put on quite a show at the top of Apple Records, but that was it. No goodbye, no see you later, these four groundbreaking artists just went their separate ways.
