Notes: A little over a year after their first triumphant appearance at New York`s Shea Stadium, The Beatles returned for a second time.

The concert did not sell out, with 11,000 of the 55,600 tickets still available. Nonetheless, The Beatles made more money from
their appearance than they had in 1965, receiving $189,000 65 per cent of the gross takings of $292,000.

This is lovely raw colour footage by NBC of the the lads walking onto the field at Shea Stadium.
