Concert recording in 1965 is owned by the Beatles.

A court ruling finally attributed to the Beatles the ownership of the film footage of the concert they gave in 1965 at Shea Stadium in New York. The judge did not give the reason to the company of Sid Bernstein, promoter of shows that took the British group to the United States. In 1967 it was broadcast on television in that country a movie of the concert. The material was used in the mid-nineties, in the documentary series The Beatles Anthology , and Ron Howard recently turned to him for his film Eight Days a Week . When Apple, the Beatles company, announced the inclusion of the material in the Howard's film, Bernstein's signature tried to record the material along with the masters of the concert. The request came into conflict with that filed in 1988 by Subafilms, associate to the Beatles and its manager, Brian Epstein. However, Bernstein's company sued them. The judge's decision served to clarify some legal aspects of the rights that a promoter may have over the recording of the concerts he organizes, according to the US publication.
