Great harmonies, like the Bee Gees when performing live, or Beach Boys. Gotta dig bands with vocal talent. Wish I could say the same for The Beatles. Live, they were pretty subpar with harmonies, well in the mid to later days of touring. The early days like Hamburg and Cavern Club, they excelled at their vocal talent from months of playing almost every night.Comment

Yup, I was watching disc 5 of Anthology and Ringo was the only one who saw how downhill the band was going in regards to performing live. He was the one that wanted to be in a band of professionals and being such a perfectionist that he would point these things out the rest of the band.
Hence why I like watching the early performances but painful to see the last public performance on the rooftop even though Get Back and LIB....Naked are on my top 3 favorite Beatles album.
To be fair, during those later days of touring (1964-1966) they really couldn't hear themselves onstage. Sub-par sound systems really hurt their performances, and even so I think they still managed to do a good job! I've struggled to hear myself playing in a club with 100 people and poor monitors, much less the idea of trying to hear yourself over the din of tens of thousands of screaming girls whilst standing on a stage in the middle of a baseball stadiumComment
