Some Beatles footage I've never seen before

Great stuff and the complete Beatles portion. Ive seen KansasCity and Im a Loser, but never Boys.
They were tight and George's Chet Atkins-inspired playing is great!

Speaking as someone born and raised in Kansas City, I can tell you that when they included the song "Kansas City" as the opening cut on their American album release "Beatles VI," we were ecstatic. There's always been a deep rivalry between Kansas City and St. Louis (at least in the minds of Kansas Citians,) so when the Beatles bestowed their blessing on Kansas City by singing that song, we roared in triumph!

Hey, I was ten, okay? I didn't say there was anything mature about our reaction, and I doubt that the elected officials of KC sent photos of themselves mooning the camera to their St. Louis counterparts....but we would have if we'd thought of it!

On top of everything else they did great covers of classic R&R/R&B songs.
