The Beatnix - Get Back (Beatles cover) May 1991 Ray Martin Midday Show Ch9

In 1991, Australian Beatles tribute group The Beatnix performed Get Back live on the roof of the Sydney Channel 9 studios in Willoughby (the band was joined on piano remotely from downstairs in the studio by the Midday Show Band keyboard player, which explains where the keyboard solo was coming from). Channel 9 had their helicopter on hand to catch some aerial shots of the group, along with a film crew on the roof of the building itself. The musicians performing as The Beatnix on this track were Bruce Coble (as “John“), Steven Shipley (as “Paul“), David Wood (as “George“) & John Taylor (as “Ringo“). They were the best known lineup of the group in the early 1990’s, having had cult success with a bizarre version of Led Zeppelin’s “A Stairway To Heaven“, before they all left to form a different Beatles tribute group called The Beatels in 1996, which continues to this day.
