1 1 2 YER PLAYLIST SUNDAY NOV. 11th 2012 BEATLES VINYL ONLY SHOW!!! Featuring the new 180 gram pressings just in time for yer holidays! 2 3 9AM The Beatles w/ Tony Sheridan My Bonnie - SINGLE Oct. 1961 GERMANY Ain’t She Sweet Cry For A Shadow Anthony Esmond Sheridan McGinnity The Beatles first time on vinyl recorded way back in 1961…before running water! 9.10 BREAK 3 4 The Beatles - Love Me Do – Please Please Me (McCartney-Lennon) Lead vocal: John and Paul The Beatles’ first single release for EMI’s Parlophone label. Released October 5, 1962, it reached #17 on the British charts. Principally written by Paul McCartney in 1958 and 1959. Recorded with three different drummers: Pete Best (June 6, 1962, EMI), Ringo Starr (September 4, 1962), and Andy White (September 11, 1962 with Ringo playing tambourine). The 45 rpm single lists the songwriters as Lennon-McCartney. One of several Beatles songs Paul McCartney owns with Yoko Ono. Starting with the songs recorded for their debut album on February 11, 1963, Lennon and McCartney’s output was attached to their Northern Songs publishing company. Because their first single was released before John and Paul had contracted with a music publisher, EMI assigned it to their own, a company called Ardmore and Beechwood, which took the two songs “Love Me Do” and “P.S. I Love You.” Decades later McCartney and Ono were able to purchase the songs for their respective companies, MPL Communications and Lenono Music. Fun fact: John Lennon shoplifted the harmonica he played on the song from a shop in Holland. On U.S. albums: Introducing… The Beatles (Version 1) - Vee-Jay LP The Early Beatles - Capitol LP The Beatles - Ask Me Why – Please Please Me (McCartney-Lennon) Lead vocal: John Recorded November 26, 1962. First heard by the public on the BBC radio program “Teenagers Turn” on June 11, 1962. It is the b-side of The Beatles’ second single, “Please Please Me,” released January 11, 1963. Written in early 1962, "Ask Me Why" is principally a John Lennon composition. The song was one of three original songs performed during the Beatles’ EMI audition at Abbey Road Studios on June 6, 1962. On U.S. albums: Introducing… The Beatles (Version 2) - Vee-Jay LP The Early Beatles - Capitol LP 4 5 The Beatles - I Saw Her Standing There – Please Please Me (McCartney-Lennon) Lead vocal: Paul Recorded February 11, 1963. A Paul McCartney original, the song was written in one day in September 1962 in the front parlor of 20 Forthlin Road, Allerton (the McCartney family from 1955 to 1964), with John Lennon helping with some of the lyrics. It was recorded under its working title, “Seventeen,” at the marathon recording session that produced the majority of songs for the Beatles’ debut album. A fan favorite, the Beatles recorded “I Saw Her Standing There” eleven times for BBC Radio between March 1963 and May 1964. McCartney has said that his bass line was lifted almost note for note from the obscure Chuck Berry song “I’m Talking About You,” released by Berry in February 1961. The Beatles performed “I’m Talking About You” at some of their club shows in 1962 and 1963. It is included on the “Live! At The Star Club” CD. On U.S. albums: Introducing… The Beatles (with “1, 2, 3” inexplicably missing from Paul’s count-in) - Vee-Jay LP Meet the Beatles! - Capitol LP Bottle/ The Beatles - Don’t Bother Me – With The Beatles (Harrison) Lead vocal: George George Harrison’s first recorded original song. While some may see it as a misfortune that Harrison was surrounded by two of the most gifted songwriters in history, this proximity gave him great insight into the mechanics of writing a song from scratch. His first attempt was more than a throwaway composition. He called “Don’t Bother Me” an “exercise” to see if he could write a song, and it was written while George was sick in a bed at the Palace Court Hotel in Bournemouth where The Beatles were playing six nights at Gaumont Cinema in mid-August of 1963. It was during this engagement (on August 5 6 22) that photographer Robert Freeman took the iconic “artsy” cover photograph of the band in half lighting that would grace the cover of both the British “With The Beatles” album and the American “Meet The Beatles!” album. Using the basic Lennon-McCartney song structure George crafted a “Beatles song” that was on par with the material the band was currently working up for their second album. Getting the other Beatles and producer George Martin to take his work seriously was another matter, and it would take years for Harrison to finally be given his due. Normally he was relegated to one or two songs per album. On U.S. album: Meet The Beatles! - Capitol LP LIVE BWTB ID HERE/ The Beatles - Do You Want To Know A Secret – Please Please Me (McCartney-Lennon) Lead vocal: George Recorded February 11, 1963. Written primarily by John Lennon for George Harrison to sing. The song was given to another Brian Epstein-managed act, Billy J. Kramer with the Dakotas, to cover. Their version topped the British charts in late spring 1963. Inspired by "I'm Wishing," a song from Walt Disney’s 1937 animated film “Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs” that Lennon’s mother used to sing to him when he was a child. On U.S. albums: Introducing… The Beatles - Vee-Jay LP The Early Beatles - Capitol LP 6 7 The Beatles - I Want to Hold Your Hand – Single/ A Collection Of Beatles Oldies (Lennon-McCartney) Lead vocal: John with Paul The Beatles’ fifth single release for EMI’s Parlophone label. “I Want to Hold Your Hand” was the Beatles’ first single issued by Capitol Records. It is the song that launched Beatlemania in the United States. It was written equally by John and Paul in the basement music room in Richard and Margaret Asher’s house at 57 Wimpole Street in the west end of London in September 1963. Paul had been dating the couple’s daughter, actress Jane Asher, and was spending a lot of time at the Asher home whenever he was in London. Paul would eventually accept an invitation to move in, taking up residence in their attic. Recorded in 17 takes on October 17, 1963. The song is the first Beatles song recorded on a four-track tape recorder, proof that the Beatles had become a high priority for EMI and Parlophone. Prior to this, the Beatles’ music had been recorded on a two-track recorder. On U.S. albums: Meet The Beatles! - Capitol LP Mod or Rocker?? The Beatles - All My Loving – With The Beatles (Lennon-McCartney) Lead vocal: Paul Essentially a Paul McCartney solo composition. The first song performed on the live broadcast of “The Ed Sullivan Show” on February 9, 1964, and watched by a then- 7 8 record 72 million viewers. McCartney has said it was the first song he ever wrote where he had the words before the music. Recorded in 13 takes on July 30, 1963. “All My Loving” is the most commercial Lennon-McCartney song recorded by The Beatles in 1963 that was not released as a single in the UK or U.S. On U.S. album: Meet The Beatles! - Capitol LP The Beatles - Can’t Buy Me Love - A Hard Day’s Night (Lennon-McCartney) Lead vocal: Paul The Beatles’ sixth single release for EMI’s Parlophone label. During their 19-day engagement at Paris’s Olympia Theatre The Beatles took time out to record German-language versions for two of their biggest hits. “I Want to Hold Your Hand” and “She Loves You” were chosen to get new vocals to increase sales in the German market. This was at the insistence of EMI’s German branch, Odeon, which felt they couldn’t sell large quantities of records unless they were sung in German. With less than an hour left on their booked recording time, The Beatles recorded four takes of a new song by Paul, “Can’t Buy Me Love.” Issued in the U.S. on March 16, 1964, it sold 940,225 copies in the U.S. the day it was released, earning a gold record award that day and shattering all previous sales records. Within two weeks sales had totaled 2 million copies. The single went on to sell over 3 million by the end of the year. The UK single was released four days later, on March 20, 1964. Recorded Jan. 29, 1964 at Pathe’ Marconi Studio in Paris. It’s inclusion in “A Hard Day’s Night” was a decision by director Richard Lester, who opted for Paul’s fast paced million seller over John’s slower new song “I’ll Cry Instead.” The decision to cut “I’ll Cry Instead” from the film was so last minute that the American soundtrack LP, which had been rush-released on United Artists Records, included “I’ll Cry Instead” in its song line-up. On U.S. album: A Hard Day’s Night - United Artists LP Hey Jude - Apple LP (1970) The first track recorded in the year 1964 “Can’t Buy Me Love”…which followed a whole set of 1963 Beatles 8 9 vinyl… 9.40 BREAK The Beatles - A Hard Day’s Night - A Hard Day’s Night (Lennon-McCartney) Lead vocal: John with Paul The Beatles’ seventh single release for EMI’s Parlophone label. The title is a Ringoism, coined by the drummer sometime in 1963 and used by John in his book “In His Own Write.” With the film nearly completed the last bit of business was to give the film a name.

  • Beatles Cover Albums During the Beatle Period

    Beatles Cover Albums During the Beatle Period

    Beatles Cover Albums during the Beatle Period As a companion to the Hollyridge Strings page, this page proposes to be a listing of (and commentary on) certain albums that were released in the United States between 1964 and April 1970. Every album in this listing has a title that indicates Beatles-related content and/or a cover that is a parody of a Beatles cover. In addition, the content of every album listed here is at least 50% Beatles-related (or, in the case of albums from 1964, "British"). Albums that are not included here include, for example, records named after a single Beatles song but which contain only a few Beatles songs: for example, Hey Jude, Hey Bing!, by Bing Crosby. 1964: Nineteen-sixty-four saw the first wave of Beatles cover albums. The earliest of these were released before the release of "Can't Buy Me Love." They tended to be quickly-recorded records designed to capitalize rapidly on the group's expanding success. Therefore, most of these albums are on small record labels, and the records themselves tended to be loaded with "filler." Possibly, the companies were not aware of the majority of Beatle product.

    Mexican Single Releases Identification Guide Revised: 28 My 16 Musart Singles Since Mexico is part of North America, Capitol Records USA (whose role it was to oversee Beatles releases in North America) was able to dictate how their records were marketed in Mexico. However, prior to 1965, Capitol had no record company offices in Mexico and therefore licensed its releases to the Musart label, a prominent Mexican record label. All Mexican singles on the Musart label are somewhat scarce; consequently, this list is incomplete.

Deze cursus had als onderwerp 'the popular instrumental'. Uit onderzoek voor deze paper kwam naar voren dat de bekendste popgroep aller tijden - The Beatles - ook instrumentale songs hebben geschreven. Mijn interesse was gewekt, te meer omdat ik de Beatles voornamelijk kende van nummers zoals 'Hey Jude', 'Yesterday' en 'Strawberry Fields Forever'. Deze fameuze popgroep heeft dus eveneens andersoortige nummers geschreven. In deze thesis wil ik geen 'herziene' versie maken van informatie die al tot in den treuren is uitgeplozen. Dit is echter niet eenvoudig, maar 'instrumentale nummers' is één van de onderwerpen die als onderwerp op zichzelf, nooit onderzocht is. In de hoogtij dagen van The Beatles – de jaren 1960 – zijn er maar op 3 albums instrumentals terug te vinden. De bekendste is waarschijnlijk 'Revolution 9' van de White Album (1968). Verder staat op het album Magical Mystery Tour (1967) het nummer 'Flying'.
  • The Beatles BC

    The Beatles BC

    Last Updated: 29 Jn 20 If you have a copy of Introducing the Beatles that you are trying to identify ... search on this page for 1062. Beatles records in the United States are typically found on the Capitol or Apple label. But people often ask about records, such as Introducing the Beatles, which were released by companies other than Capitol/Apple. In these articles, I will attempt to discuss the history of Beatles recordings in the US which predate their Capitol contract. Known variations of those records will be listed, along with their approximate values. The first Beatles record released anywhere was "My Bonnie" and "The Saints," with the Beatles backing Tony Sheridan. This German record (Polydor NH 24-673) was issued in two forms (with a German intro or an English intro) and with a picture sleeve. [More information can be found in this article about the Beatles' association with Tony Sheridan.] "My Bonnie" was Tony's first record and his break into the record industry. As many people know, the word "Beatles" was considered difficult to interpret by Germans, so Polydor billed the artist as Tony Sheridan and the Beat Brothers (October 1961). From that point on, Tony's band was known as the Beat Brothers, which caused some confusion to later Beatles fans. In January of 1962, Beatles manager Brian Epstein began negotiating with Polydor to release "My Bonnie" in England. Because of his negotiations, the UK "My Bonnie" release (Polydor NH 66-833) showed the artist as "Tony Sheridan and the Beatles." The record sold modestly, apparently well enough to consider releasing it in America.
