The Beatles Rareties

The Beatles Emerging from Liverpool, England in 1960, the Beatles were a seminal British group that evolved from rock/pop origins into pioneers of musical experimentation. The band solidified its iconic lineup in 1962, featuring John Lennon (vocals, rhythm guitar, harmonica, keyboards, percussion), Paul McCartney (vocals, bass, guitar, keyboards, percussion), George Harrison (lead guitar, vocals, keyboards), and Ringo Starr (drums, vocals, percussion) after signing a recording contract with EMI. This followed a brief period with Stuart Sutcliffe (bass, 1960-61) and Pete Best (drums, 1960-62).Initially recognized for their Merseybeat style, the Beatles soon ventured into uncharted musical territories, exploring psychedelia and pioneering innovative production techniques that incorporated tape loops and other effects. Over their active years, they created a legacy of 12 studio albums.

Alle Aufnahmen stammen also aus der Zeit, in welcher die Beatles ihre Unsterblichkeit erlangt haben!Die Beatles gastierten damals mehrere Wochen in Hamburg und wurden von Bert Kaempfert („Wonderland By Night“) als Begleitband für Tony Sheridans neue Schallplattenaufnahme geladen. MY BONNIE erschien kurz danach als Polydor-Single und v. a. Beatles-Fans in Liverpool wollten diese Single kaufen. Brian Epstein, damals Inhaber des NEMS Schallplattenladens, besorgte sich die Single aus Deutschland.Es war dann Epstein, der die Beatles zum Welterfolg führen sollte, als sie wieder zurück nach Liverpool kamen. Auf dieser Zusammenstellung sind die ersten Kapitel der Beatles-Geschichte hautnah nachzuverfolgen.
