gvopedz Posted October 3, 2022 Report Share Posted October 3, 2022 A video of the Beatles captured by Tokyo's Metropolitan Police Department during the British rock band's 1966 tour to Japan has been disclosed. The release came after a disclosure request filed with the MPD eight years ago by a nonprofit organization working to promote information disclosure in the city of Nagoya and a related lawsuit. The faces of people in the video, excluding the Beatles members, have been censored by the police department. The silent 35 minute 40 second black-and-white video was captured between June 29 and July 3, 1966, when the Beatles stayed in Japan, and is titled "security operations during the Beatles' visit to Japan." https://www.japantimes.co.jp/culture/2022/10/03/entertainment-news/beatles-video/ A few days after the visit of the Beatles, John Coltrane arrived.

gvopedz Posted October 9, 2022 Author Report Share Posted October 9, 2022 Perhaps Tokyo's Metropolitan Police Department also made a video of Coltrane’s visit to Japan – and future generations will be able to see it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
