Beatles, The - Unreleased British Radio Sessions 1962-165 [2LP] Limited Black Vinyl (import)

A COLLECTION OF RARE STUDIO  & LIVE RECORDINGS 1962-1965!

DOUBLE BLACK VINYL

RARE FRANCE IMPORT!

This is a collection of unique and yet-unreleased studio and live recordings taped by The Beatles for the British Broadcasting Corporation between March 1962 and May 1965. This 118-minute, carefully prepared double album contains 53 tracks not available on both EMI/Apple Records titles: Live At The BBC' (1994) and 'On Air-Live At The BBC Volume 2' (2013).

A number of the BBC recordings had been lost, wiped or never recorded by the corporation, at a time when they didn't fully know the cultural impact of The Beatles. Luckily, a great deal of broadcasts were saved for posterity by the British fans and collectors and some of them were even included on official releases!

Many of the performances included cover versions which the band never recorde for EMI.

It also worth noting that three titles included here (The Night Before, I Should Have Known Better and Call Your Name) were omitted from both EMI/Apple albums mentioned above!

In addition, two covers with Pete Best still on drums (Dream Baby and A Picture Of You) are still yet to be released in any form!

All tracks were remastered and speed-corrected.

Excellent to very good quality maiters and off-air recordings.
John Lennon lead vocals, harmonica rhythm guitar plano, organ Paul McCartney lead vocals, bass guitar, plano, organ, electric plano George Harrison-lead guitar, lead and backing vocals Ringo Starr-drums, tambourine, lead and backing vocals Pete Best drums (on live tracks, 1962)
