Nick Mason :
« The biggest problem with early [visual] material is that there was relatively little good quality material around, because we weren’t important enough to have a lot of news footage. The Beatles, although it was early days, had quite a lot of great movie footage. We didn’t. What we tended to have was us going to Japan, buying Super 8 cameras and filming each other. Which was pretty weak filmmaking, I can tell you. And contains, of course, no sound whatsoever. Although, by looking at it, it looks as though we believed if you shout loudly enough it will imprint itself on the film. We always seem to be talking to the camera hopelessly. »
