Disclaimer: Due to copyright restrictions, I have had to mute certain portions of this video. Most of the video is still intact, but the random dropouts in the first minute and from around 9:30 to 11:00 are audio I had to mute. I tried to dispute this, but it was sadly rejected. I will get a link to the unaltered version in the comments.
Here is a collection of all the available footage from the Beatles' rehearsal session for Blackbird at Studio 2 in EMI. This footage was mainly shot for use in the Apple promotional video, but thanks to a variety of sources, we have a lot of the outtakes and audio as well! A huge thanks to @kq8923 , @juancena3073 , and @ledzepfilm who helped me in syncing and accurately assembling this. I hope you all enjoy! :)
