The 1969 Rooftop Concert is a testament of how good the Beatles could sound live. Looks like they all plugged in, got comfortable, and then played a great set. Paul & John's voices were in top form. All of them could improvise with their instruments if they needed to. Its too bad we never really got a good look of that aspect of their career.
That's very true JoeySmith, I couldn't have said it better myself. The rooftop concert was great in itself! Considering the fact that The Beatles quit touring in 1966, the 1969 rooftop concert proves as well as shows the potential of what The Beatles could have sounded like live had they stayed together longer. In my opinion, The Beatles would have improved tremendously which would result in them sounding great as time went on!! And with the improvement of the technology as time went by, in my opinion, the technology would have brought the best out of The Beatles had they stayed together.

I agree totally. By the time Wings toured in '75-'76 concert sound had already vastly improved. Wings had one of the best sound systems available at the time and their concerts sounded fantastic! I believe Paul was using Showco, who also did the sound for Led Zeppelin and The Who, among others. Other groups like Yes, ELP, and Pink Floyd had Quadrophonic sound systems in concert and they also sounded amazing! Those were good days for concerts. The Beatles could have sounded great live!
