Wikipedia
The Beatles at Shea Stadium is a fifty minute-long documentary of the Beatles' 1965 concert at Shea Stadium in New York, the highlight of the group's 1965 tour. The documentary was produced by Ed Sullivan (under his Sullivan Productions, Inc. banner), NEMS Enterprises Ltd. (which owns the 1965 copyright), and the Beatles company Subafilms Ltd. The project utilized twelve cameras to capture the mayhem and mass hysteria that was Beatlemania in America in 1965. The documentary first aired on the BBC on May 1, 1966. It aired in the United States on ABC on January 10, 1967.
History
Sounds Incorporated. Television host Ed Sullivan introduces the band when they finally take the stage. The film is not a completely candid concert film, however, as overdubs were recorded by the Beatles in London in January 1966 to cover audio problems throughout the concert recording. Although the film has not been officially available on DVD or VHS, it has been widely available on the bootleg circuit for decades.

“If I could go back in time this is one of the things I would see. Still this should be released & restored on DVD, people of my generation think they know sellout & popular concerts. I grantee you they will eat their words after seeing this.”

“Just imagine how ripped off we'd feel to see a half hour concert in this day and age. It's unfortunate that Shea is still unreleased on DVD and that Hollywood Bowl is not available on an official CD. Best live Beatles available as of 8-26-11? The DVD with the 4 Ed Sullivan Shows that The Beatles were on.”

“WHEN will it come out officially??? It was restored in the early nineties and Apple is sitting on it for decades. A LIVE Beatles package with the Hollywood Bowl CD and the SHEA Blu-ray should be the next big Beatles release. Let the young people HEAR and SEE what Beatlemania really IS and let those lucky bastards reminisce who were there!”
