"It shows how mundane creativity can be. I bet most songs begin as a bit of mumbling to oneself like Paul does. I usually write while I'm alone on a walk, singing nonsense until it crystallizes into something meaningful and worth repeating." -- Lucy Dacus, rock musician
Make time to watch Get Back.
Get Back is Peter Jackson's three-part documentary series chronicling the four weeks in January 1969 when the Beatles wrote and created "Let It Be" as well as performed their famous Rooftop Concert, which would essentially be their final performance in front of a live audience.
I know the series is over eight hours.
And sure, to get the most out of this documentary, you'll need to ignore your loved ones and delay mundane chores.
Plus, at times, watching this month-long recording session where all the participants are all at once collaborating, bickering, laughing, being bored, anxious, angry, and gleeful can be a slog.
But this slog is beautiful and worth the effort.
The documentary is you behind the scenes.
Jackson's series captures the inception of the creative process which produced music played the world over for decades.
And don't worry, your loved ones will still love you, and the chores will still be there.
