Interesting Facts
- Personal Narrative: Unlike many documentaries, The Anthology famously relies only on the voices of the Beatles themselves and their close associates like George Martin and Neil Aspinall to tell their story.
- Thayer's Artwork: The iconic collage cover art for the collection was designed by Klaus Voormann, a long-time friend of the band who also designed the Revolver album cover.
- Historical Accuracy: Production for the documentary took over five years, involving the restoration of thousands of hours of audio and video to ensure the highest quality historical record.
- The Reunion: During the project, Paul, George, and Ringo reunited to record two "new" Beatles songs, "Free as a Bird" and "Real Love," based on demo tapes left behind by John Lennon.
Interessante Fakten:
- Persönliche Erzählung: Im Gegensatz zu vielen Dokumentationen verlässt sich The Anthology ausschließlich auf die Stimmen der Beatles selbst, um ihre Geschichte zu erzählen.
- Kunstwerk: Das ikonische Collagen-Cover wurde von Klaus Voormann entworfen, dem Schöpfer des Revolver-Covers.
- Wiedervereinigung: Während des Projekts nahmen Paul, George und Ringo zwei „neue“ Beatles-Songs auf, basierend auf John Lennons Demos.
