The Beatles' 1966 US tour Knowing that this would be their last concert, members of the band took measures of their own to capture their last moments on stage. Each brought a camera and McCartney asked Beatles press agent Tony Barrow to make a rough audio tape recording from the field. The recording of this final concert is now widely circulated on bootlegs. "Long Tall Sally" on the bootlegs is not complete, due to Barrow not flipping the tape over during the show.

The Beatles' 1966 tour of Germany, Japan and the Philippines for the tour. Given the complexity of their new recordings, the band did not include any of the songs from "Revolver" in their 1966 set list. Author and critic Richie Unterberger writes that this omission has been interpreted as laziness by some commentators, yet it was in keeping with the Beatles' policy not to perform any unreleased material.
