I had a quiet night at work, so I sat down for 3.5 hours and watched it. A few thoughts:

- It was interesting how Scorcese mined so many 'Anthology' outtakes.

- While I didn't need almost 2 hours of Beatles history re-cap, it's always nice to see, and it was great that it focused on George's experience, when much of his normally gets pushed aside over John & Paul.

- Once you get to the real meat of doc (the solo years), you get a real understanding that George was such a good and tender soul, with many people who truly loved ...

I just saw that "Awaiting Moderation" on your post from 24 September 2012 5.32pm.

That is the third time I've seen that in past week and do not know wht is causing it. I did send Joe a PM regarding the 2 that I saw last week. Hopefully he can diagnose what is causing it to happen.

In any event, I released your post from the dreaded "Awaiting Moderation" status. Thanks much for your patience.

I didnt have any patience. I posted immediately repeating the same info but removed the link. Maybe ...

Why is my above post 'awaiting moderation'? Kind of defeats the point of the post if it takes 24 hours so lets remove the link.

You can get the deluxe box of LITMW at POP Market for £35 until 5pm tomorrow UK time. The Beatles USB Apple will be on sale at the same place from 11pm tonight for 6 hours no idea what price.

Now it works. Must be the link. If you want either go to google and search for 'Pop Market'.

Funny, I was thinking about this film (which I haven't seen) just two days ago, when I was watching "GoodFellas" - I'd seen it many times before, but forgot that Scorsese used a bit of "What Is Life?" in that long coke-paranoia/helicopter scene (along with the Stones, Who, Harry Nilsson and I forget who else.)

The Quarrymen more than likely did perform it but i dont remember The Beatles ever doing it before The Anthology reunion. It certainly was never recorded before then.

I am watching Living In The Material World , now.

Paul say that when George met John for first time , he played " Raunchy " , and then after Paul's talk , We hear that song.

Did Quarrymen(or The Beatles) ever perform and release that song ?

So that's a unanimous yes then! I've booked the cinema tickets, and have warned my friend that I will be in tears throughout. I'm all set!

If I could see it at a cinema, I'd do it in a heartbeat. I was so hoping that it would be that way here in the U.S.

I am completely bummed that it is on HBO instead. I'm with kaleidoscopeyes in that I do not subscribe to it.

Curse you, premium cable channels!!
