The plan was to do quite a bit of investing, from real estate to record stores filled with a ton of Beatles merchandising. (named that by Paul as a play on words because it was pronounced "Apple Core") was formed by the band's accountants when they started to accumulate too much cash. The guys, along with their manager and producer, Sir George Martin, were in the lower level of the Apple building when the group decided to make the project a live recording. 30, 1969, at Apple Studios on Savile Row in London. It all happened pretty fast and before we knew it, we were on the roof!" "I was only 20 years old and I had been working with the Beatles for a bit already as their recording engineer.

And not only was Alan Parsons (from the studio session band, the Alan Parsons Project) one of the very few people to witness the Beatles' very last public concert, he told me all about it before a show he was about to perform at the Arcada Theatre.
