:33:01
Beatle records, and I was held up
as a Satanist or something...

:33:05
then we decided, no more touring.
That's enough of that.

:33:08
But I was really too
scared to walk away.

:33:10
I was thinking, this
is like the end, really.

:33:13
There's no more touring.
That's when I started considering:

:33:15
"What the hell do you do all day?"
:33:18
So I said yes to Dick Lester...
:33:19
that I would make this movie with him
and went to Altamira, Spain for six weeks.

:33:27
At a studio in London...
:33:28
the Beatles have just come together
for the first time in four months...

:33:31
to record some songs.
:33:33
The songwriting team, they will keep
going on, whatever happens, will it?

:33:36
Yeah, we'll probably carry on
writing music forever...

:33:40
whatever else we're doing,
'cause you just can't stop.

:33:44
You find yourself doing it
whether you want to or not.

:33:46
Do you think the tours, like
the American tours and the English one...

:33:50
It stands in England?
:33:51
There must be a point
where they don't work anymore...

:33:55
because they're not to do
with what we're doing...

:33:57
record-wise or film-wise.
:33:59
Before we did Sergeant Pepper, we were
given a license to kill, so to speak...

:34:02
because we were already successful.
:34:05
And I knew that I could do in the studio
just what I wanted.

:34:07
And I knew that they wanted
to experiment a bit more.

:34:10
So we just let our hair down
and went for broke.

:34:14
In fact, when I say Pepper, I mean
I'm starting off with Strawberry Fields...

:34:17
which was the beginning ofPepper,
although it wasn't on the album.

:34:20
That was one of the great songs he did.
