Although they famously performed on the rooftop of Apple in January 1969, 1 May 1966 was The Beatles' final scheduled live appearance in Britain.
It was their fourth appearance at the New Musical Express Annual Poll-Winners' All-Star Concert, which took place at the Empire Pool in Wembley, London. The Beatles performed before an audience of 10,000.
The group were on a bill which also included The Spencer Davis Group, The Fortunes, Herman's Hermits, Roy Orbison, The Overlanders, The Alan Price Set, Cliff Richard and The Shadows, The Rolling Stones, The Seekers, The Small Faces, Sounds Incorporated, Dusty Springfield, Crispian St Peters, The Walker Brothers, The Who, The Yardbirds and Dave Dee, Dozy, Beaky, Mick & Titch. The comperes were Peter Murray and Jimmy Savile.
The Beatles played a 15-minute set which included five songs: I Feel Fine, Nowhere Man, Day Tripper, If I Needed Someone and I'm Down.
Although ABC TV was filming the concert, Brian Epstein failed to reach an agreement over terms, so the cameras were turned off while The Beatles performed. The group were, however, filmed receiving their poll awards.
You've written "Dave, Dee, Dozy Beaky Mick & Titch" but it should be "Dave Dee, Dozy, Beaky, Mick & Titch". Dave Dee was one person and the others need commas between their names. Small point but I thought I'd mention it.
So I did - thanks for pointing it out Matt.
