... from the Yellow Submarine film (July 17, 1968) (2.32 MB, wmv, colour)
It was recorded during sessions for the single Lady Madonna, and one of the few Beatles song to revolve around a piano riff. During the recording, Paul started to bark without warning. The next lines (initially intended as "Hey Bullfrog") were changed mid-song to "Hey Bulldog". This served as the song's title. The song itself was recorded for the Yellow Submarine film, but initially appeared only in European theatrical prints. It was restored for a 1999 re-release.

... at Balmoral Island & Cabbage Beach (Feb 1965) (1.55 MB, wmv, colour)
The Beatles filmed on Balmoral Island in the Bahamas miming to Another Girl and on Cabbage Beach on Paradise Island the next day. Ringo commented in The Beatles Anthology that they were in The Bahamas for the hot weather scenes and it was rather cold. The track was recorded on February 15, 1965, with the guitar outro overdubbed on February 16. It is worth noting that this is the first Beatles song in which McCartney played lead guitar, in addition to his usual bass.

... at Geliebtes Leben (May 3, 1965) (1.83 MB, wmv, colour)
This is the second George Harrison song The Beatles recorded (on February 15 and February 16, 1965) and released, after a two album-long hiatus from the songwriter. The song is a simple, melancholy number, with a unique guitar sound achieved by Harrison's first recorded use of a tone pedal. The confessional lyrics are commonly thought to be about Harrison's relationship with Pattie Boyd, whom he had met in March 1964 while filming A Hard Day's Night.

... in Obertauern, Austrian Alps (March 15-20, 1965) (2.32 MB, wmv, color)
The actual inspiration of the song is cloudy: John passing his driving test? a girl walking out of his life? a train ticket to Ryde? a special ticket given to prostitutes in Hamburg that showed they had a clean bill of health? ... The lead guitar breaks are by Paul (the first time he played lead guitar on a Beatles record -though it is believed that he played the guitar solo in the outro on Another Girl). After the breakup, Lennon proudly claimed that it was the first heavy metal song of all time; given the droning bassline, repeating drums, and loaded guitar lines.

... from the Help! film (March 1965) (1.63 MB, wmv, colour)
In the film, at the opening of the song, the head of the 'Indian cult', Leo McKern, appears from a manhole cover in the middle of Ailsa Avenue, London, where parts of the film were shot. He stays there for the whole song, which The Beatles play in John Lennon's flat. They are watched by 'Ahme', played by Eleanor Bron, and at the end of the song, George passes out after Ahme produces a giant needle for Ringo, who is wearing the ring the cult want.

... at Twickenham film studios, London (April 30, 1965) (1.75 MB, wmv, colour)
Most of the time of that day was spent filming the You're Going To Lose That Girl 'recording session': The Beatles appeared singing it in the recording studio, for the film. It can be considered as part 2 of She Loves You. Both feature the singer giving a friend advice about a particular girl, however, this theme is taken one step further. Instead of friendly advice, the song is clearly a threat: if the friend in question does not take care of his girl, the singer most certainly will.

... at Twickenham film studios, London (April 22, 1965) (1.81 MB, wmv, colour)
Lennon wrote the lyrics (April 4th) to express his stress coming from the quick rise to a massive level of success for The Beatles. Since Lennon's feelings of insecurity were incongruous with the band's image of confidence, Lennon felt it was nearly impossible for the fans to understand the origin of the song. In 1970, Lennon said that because of its honesty it was one of his favorites among the songs he wrote, but he wished they had recorded it at a slower tempo.

... at Candlestick Park, San Francisco (Aug 29, 1966) (25.0 MB, zipped files)
Today is the 40th anniversary of The Beatles' last public 'paid' performance and the 47th of George's first appearance with The Quarrymen. The concert recordings were made on a cassette recorder because of a request by Paul.
Long Tall Sally was their last song and it is curious because they were closing everywhere else with Paul's I'm Down. According to the author Wiener they supposedly started In My Life, then stopped and left the stage (see comments).

... at Scala Theatre, London (March 31, 1964) (1.97 MB, wmv, b&w)
The Beatles were filmed miming their songs for the film. Phil Collins was in the audience. They were inspired to write She Loves You after a concert at the Majestic Ballroom in Newcastle and it was one of the five Beatles' songs which held the top five positions in the American charts, still an unchallenged record. It also remains their best-selling single in the United Kingdom today and it was the first time Lennon's name had taken precedence over McCartney in the credits.

... at Twickenham film studios, London (Spring 1964) (1.93 MB, wmv, b&w)
This was one of the first pop songs with a title that starts in mid-sentence. Paul was pleased with himself that he came up with this clever idea. It was mainly written by McCartney, though Lennon claimed in an interview with Playboy, that his major contribution was the "middle eight" section: "A love like ours, Could never die, As long as I, Have you near me." John played acoustic guitar, Paul bass, George acoustic lead Ramirez guitar and claves and Ringo played bongos.

... at Twickenham film studios, London (Spring 1964) (1.59 MB, wmv, b&w)
Written by Lennon, it was said that John didn't really like it, so it was given to George to sing in the film. At this time, George's writings were not accepted by John and Paul and were hardly if ever used on any recording. John believed that George's somewhat simple vocal delivery conveyed the mood of the song perfectly. This was their first song recorded on a Sunday recording session.

... at Twickenham film studios, London (Spring 1964) (1.78 MB, wmv, b&w)
Mainly written by John, the song is notable primarily for its unusual structure, which includes an unrepeated introductory section followed by sequential verse sections, each having a slightly expanded form, but with no obvious chorus or bridge section, a two-part harmony by John & Paul and intricate chord changes.

... Thornbury Playing Fields, Isleworth (April 23, 1964) (1.73 MB, wmv, b&w)
The sequence was filmed at Thornbury Playing Fields, Isleworth, Hounslow, Middlesex. John left as soon as it was finished and he went to a luncheon in London where he read his poem 'I Sat Be Lonely'. Therefore he was not around for the scene where the man admonishes them. Approximately at 1 pm, the shooting was done and they left. It was composed and recorded in Paris and it was also the only occasion that a Beatles song was recorded outside of Britain.

... at Twickenham film studios (March 11, 1964) (1.97 MB, wmv, b&w)
This is the baggage car sequence in which they are playing cards and lip-synching to I Should Have Known Better. This is one of the first tracks on which we heard Harrison's 12-string electric Rickenbacker guitar (alongside many other cuts on A Hard Day's Night LP). Later The Byrds would make it their signature instrument.

... at Boston Place & Marylebone Station (April 5, 1964) (1.88 MB, wmv, b&w)
Opening sequence of the film. Its strange title, originated from something said by Ringo, was the inspiration for the title of the movie, according to Lennon (some disagree). John dashed off the song in one night and it took them less than 3 hours to polish it for its final release, featuring a prominent and unique opening chord played by Harrison (subject of contention) and ending with Harrison's guitar-playing fading out, the first time The Beatles had used such a technique.

... at the Apple Studios, London (Jan 31, 1969) (54.3 MB, mpeg, colour)
Paul, upset over The Beatles pending breakup, claims his mother, Mary, came to him in a dream saying: "Let it be." After Take 22, Paul said they should change the tempo a bit. The April 1, 1970 dub was the band's last 'recording session'. This was the first Beatles record to be released in the USSR (see comments).

... at the Apple Studios, London (Jan 31, 1969) (35.6 MB, mpeg, colour)
Paul originally wrote the song at his farm in Scotland, inspired by the growing tension between The Beatles at the time and recorded a quick demo version of the song sometime in September of 1968. Lirically somewhat ambiguous, the 'long and winding road' sometimes claimed to have been inspired by a 31-mile winding road in Scotland, running along the east coast of Kintyre into Campbeltown, and part of the 82-mile drive from Lochgilphead (see comments).

... at the Apple Studios, London (Jan 31, 1969) (34.3 MB, mpeg, colour)
Composed by Paul (although John claimed to have written it in a 1980 interview with David Sheff) it originally began as a rocker with a strong Peggy Sue drum beat but it lost its rock leanings as Paul worked out the song and it became a more introspective song. For Linda, though it sounds at times as if it is addressing John, whose relationship with Paul was tense at that time (see comments).

... at the Twickenham and Apple Studios (January 1969) (7.01 MB, wmv, colour)
This clip was made utilising Michael Lindsay-Hogg's film work. It features a combination of Twickenham filming and Apple recording sessions. Some footage is from the actual day when the song was recorded. It seems that it was meant to be included, as part of the extras, in a future release of Let It Be in DVD.

... at the Apple Studios rooftop, London (Jan 30, 1969) (33.6 MB, mpeg, colour)
The third rooftop version is the Beatle's last song of their last public performance. The song almost breaks down but lurches to a finish, with Paul's ad-libs and John's famous statement. The Anthology and the Let It Be film are the only publicly available true recordings, with the lurching version and the closing ad-libs.

... at the Apple Studios rooftop, London (Jan 30, 1969) (8.87 MB, wmv, colour)
Don't Let Me Down was recorded live on 28 January and played twice during the Rooftop Concert. Here is a combination of shots of The Beatles playing the song. The sound comes from the original studio recording released as the B-side to Get Back, so John can not be heard changing the line he forgot during the concert.

... at the Apple Studios rooftop, London (Jan 30, 1969) (37.7 MB, mpeg, colour)
Before it began John asked for the words, so an assistant can be seen kneeling before him with the lyrics attached to a clipboard. John would later comment that he thought the song was one of the worst he had ever written. Written for his soon-to-be wife, Yoko Ono, and featured a multitude of strange phrases strung together as well as the culmination of each verse, "All I want is you".

... at the Apple Studios rooftop, London (Jan 30, 1969) (28.3 MB, mpeg, colour)
One After 909 was written by John before The Beatles' days but was not officially released until it was included on the 1970 album Let It Be. The recording of this happened during a session at Abbey Road Studios in 1963 and was included on a compilation of takes published in 1995 as Anthology 1. The song ends with John sarcastically reciting a line of the 1913 standard Danny Boy.

... at the Apple Studios rooftop, London (Jan 30, 1969) (2.54 MB, wmv, colour)
This was actually three unfinished songs strung together: Paul's "I've Got a Feeling" and John's "Everybody Had a Hard Year", with the main guitar riff coming from John's unfinished "Watching Rainbows." John had actually had a very hard year: he had divorced and was estranged from his son, Yoko Ono had a miscarriage, he was arrested for drug possession and his money was dwindling.

... at the Apple Studios rooftop (Jan 30, 1969) (32.5 MB, mpeg, colour)
Don't Let Me Down was the B-side to Get Back and when the single was issued another colour promotional clip was distributed to TV stations. The song was recorded live (with Billy Preston playing the keyboard) just minutes after the completion of Get Back on 28 January. Here is their first performance from the Rooftop Concert. John can be heard forgeting one of the lines in the middle.

... at the Apple Studios rooftop (Jan 30, 1969) (42.8 MB, mpeg, colour)
When Get Back was issued as a single one colour promotional clip was distibuted to TV stations. Although it did not contain any footage from the actual studio recording, it was synchronised to that version, and it presented material different from that included in Let It Be (the film has a well-matched edit of the first two Get Back versions). This clip is from the rooftop performance (see comments).

... at the Apple Recording Studios rooftop (Jan 30, 1969) (10.3 MB, mp3)
The historical Rooftop Concert which turned out being their last public performance. The police stopped it short. During a meeting on Sunday 26 January the idea was raised that the group give an unannounced live performance the following Thursday on the roof of their own office building. Many claim to have originated the rooftop idea, which suggests that it was warmly received by all. It was 37 & 1/2 years ago yesterday (see comments).

... at the Johanneshov's Isstadion (July 28, 1964) (4.59 MB, wmv, b&w)
Excerpts from their performances of I Saw Her Standing There and Twist And Shout at the Johanneshov's Isstadion (an ice hockey arena). An elevator was supposed to bring The Beatles down to the stage, but it broke down with them on it for 5 minutes. During the show John And Paul suffered an electric discharge when they touched their ungrounded microphones while playing Long Tall Sally.

... from the Magical Mystery Tour film (Dec 26, 1967) (54.6 MB, mpeg, colour)
An interesting factor to the music is that all the chords used are major chords or 7th chords, and all the 'musical' letters of the alphabet are so used. The song ends with a descending progression of A7, G7, F7, E7, D7, C7, and B7, repeated until the end. The unusual monologue buried in the mix towards the end is actually a few lines of Shakespeare's King Lear (Act IV, Scene VI), which were added to the song direct from an AM radio receiving the broadcast of the play.

... at Knole Park, Sevenoaks (Jan 30 & 31, 1967) (39.3 MB, mpeg, b&w)
It was debuted on the Top of the Pops on February 9, 1967. It was released in both color and in black & white. Widely considered to be one of the group's best recordings, it is also one of the defining works of the psychedelic rock genre. Brian Wilson claimed that this song was partially responsible for the collapse of the Beach Boys' legendary unfinished album SMiLE. It also gave its name to the Strawberry Fields Memorial in Central Park, near the site of Lennon's assassination.

... from the Ed Sullivan Show (Aug 14, 1965) (18.5 MB, mpeg, black & white).
The Beatles taped 6 songs for the September 12th Ed Sullivan Show. This appearance included the classic performance by Paul when he stood solo in the spotlight and sang a version of Yesterday (with a pre-taped track of 3 violins).

... at EMI Studio One, London (Feb 10, 1967) (11.1 MB, mpeg, colour).
The orchestral part was recorded with McCartney and Martin conducting a 40-piece orchestra. The session was filmed to be used in a TV special, however, the film was never released, although portions of it can be seen in this promo film. Reflecting The Beatles' taste for experimentation and avant garde, the orchestra players were decked out in formal dress for the film, but also asked to wear a "fancy dress" piece such as red noses or fake stick-on nipples.

... from the Anthology TV documentary (Jan 1967) (5.50 MB, wmv, colour).
The released version is an edit of two takes. They recorded two versions: the first one was basic instrumentation including keyboard, guitars and drums. Some weeks later, John had opted for a much more complex arrangement. The most distintive instrument was the one that produced the flute-like sound (played by Paul) in the introduction: a Mellotron. The Beatles were one of the first rock bands to acquire one and this is believed to be the first use of it on a recording.

... at Knole Park, Sevenoaks (Jan 30 & 31, 1967) (2.57 MB, wmv, colour).
This prom film is one of the first conceptual music videos, featuring reverse film effects, stop motion animation, jump cuts from daytime to nighttime and The Beatles playing, pouring paint over and smashing an upright piano. The location is easy to find, being on one of the main roads through the park with a tree. John began writing the song in late 1966, in Almeria, Spain. The title referred to the Salvation Army orphanage in Liverpool, where he used to play.

... at Angel Lane and Knole Park, London (Feb 1967) (30.1 MB, mpeg, colour).
The song's title is derived from the name of a street in Liverpool, which was named after a wealthy 18th century slave ship owner. This promotional film was not filmed at Penny Lane -The Beatles were reluctant to travel to Liverpool- and so the street scenes were actually filmed in and around Angel Lane in London's East End. The outdoor scenes were filmed at Knole Park in Sevenoaks. The solo was played by a piccolo trumpet (thought to be the first use of it in pop music).

... from the Magical Mystery Tour film (July 17, 1968) (3.33 MB, wmv, colour).
It is one of The Beatles' most striking and effective experimental songs from the psychedelic period. Lennon wrote most of the song on separate acid trips combining 3 separate songs he had been working on: the 1st was inspired by hearing a police siren, the 2nd was a short rhyme about him sitting in his garden and the 3rd was a nonsense lyric about sitting on a corn flake. The Walrus is a reference to the one from Lewis Carroll's poem The Walrus And The Carpenter.

... from the Magical Mystery Tour film (Dec 26, 1967) (2.15 MB, wmv, colour).
This song appeared in a scene filmed on Monday 30 and Tuesday 31 October, with Paul running around on hills in Nice, France. It is about a man who is considered a fool by others, but whose foolish demeanor is actually an indication of wisdom. Some have speculated that the man was The Beatles' guru, Maharishi Mahesh Yogui, however, the song was based on a Paul's experience in London.

... from the Magical Mystery Tour film (Dec 26, 1967) (2.02 MB, wmv, colour).
The song appeared in the last part of the film in an elaborate, old-fashioned segment that has The Beatles in white tuxedoes performing a (rather poorly synchronized) dance number at a fancy dress ball. The song was originally composed with the use of continuous drum rolls by Ringo giving the impression of a funeral march. This version was later scratched in favor of a more fluid one.

... from the Yellow Submarine film (July 17, 1968) (3.17 MB, wmv, colour).
The version of George's It's All Too Much that appeared in the film itself is slightly different and contained a lyric that was cut from the album version: "Nice to have the time to take this opportunity/Time for me to look at you and you to look at me." The Beatles themselves were not enthusiastic in participating in a motion picture at the time, however, they, impressed after seeing the finished film, did agree to make a cameo appearance here, in the final scene of the film.

... from the Yellow Submarine film (July 17, 1968) (1.58 MB, wmv, colour).
While The Beatles were in India studying Transcendental Meditation, they sang a different version of the song changing the words "E F G H I J, I Love You" to "E F G H I Jai Guru Dev" in honor of the Maharishi Mahesh Yogi. Paul wrote the verses/refrain, John the middle-eight and it was performed in a skiffle style. The lyrics are very simple; football fans in the UK have sung the song during matches.

... from the Yellow Submarine film (July 17, 1968) (2.31 MB, wmv, colour).
On their way to save Pepperland, The Beatles met Jeremy Hillary Boob, Ph. D., a strange little man who lived in an empty Nowhere and spoke in rhyme so they sang this song to him. Jeremy realized how empty and lonely his life was so Ringo offered to take him Somewhere. Jeremy helped them to defeat the Blue Meanies. John claimed that he himself was the subject of the song. He wrote it after wracking his brain in desperation for hours, trying to come up with a song.

... from the Yellow Submarine film (July 17, 1968) (2.21 MB, wmv, colour).
When they were passing through the foothills of the Headlands (Sea Of Heads) they get separated from the submarine and John sang this song, featuring image-laden verses which present an overtly psychedelic travelogue. This, as well as the initials of the title and the dreamlike-quality of the melody, has led many to speculate that it was written in reference to LSD. The Beatles denied it. However, it inspired the name of an anthropological find: an old female hominid.

... from the Yellow Submarine film (July 17, 1968) (2.03 MB, wmv, colour).
The combination of still black and white pics of Liverpool that "can be a lonely place on a Saturday night, and this is only Thursday morning" with the color pictures of its citizens, "all the lonely people, where did they all come from?" with the "saddest music in the world" is heartbreaking. The orchestra sounds like a horror film soundtrack, and Eleanor Rigby is cinematic, and it is about horror.

... from the Yellow Submarine film (July 17, 1968) (2.07 MB, wmv, colour).
This clip belongs to the Sea Of Time sequence, where The Beatles go forward and backward in time. Although it involves themes of aging, it was one of the first songs Paul wrote (John provided the grandchildren's names: Vera, Chuck and Dave), dating back from his days with The Quarrymen. Sir Paul McCartney turned 64 years of age four weeks ago, on June 18, 2006. Ironically, he separated from his wife, Heather Mills just one month before his 64th birthday.

... from the Yellow Submarine film (July 17, 1968) (2.00 MB, wmv, colour).
The animation of Yellow Submarine has sometimes falsely been attributed to the famous psychedelic pop art artist of the era Peter Max. The film's artwork was in fact overseen by Heinz Edelmann. Edelmann, along with his contemporary Milton Glaser, pioneered the psychedelic style for which Max would later become famous, but according to Edelmann and producer Al Brodax, Max had nothing to do with the production of the film. Here is the All You Need Is Love scene.

... from the Anthology documentary (June 25, 1967) (34.8 MB, mpeg, colour).
Recorded in black and white, when The Beatles' segment was featured in The Anthology TV documentary it was painstakingly colourised using photos taken at the time as a guide. Attending -among many others- was Mick Jagger, sat on the floor, wearing a jacket with psychedelic eyes painted, puffing on a joint in front of several millions of people ... and he was up in court in 2 days on drug charges!

... from the Our World TV programme (June 25, 1967) (17.9 MB, wmv, b&w). Our World was the first ever live global television link, broadcast via satellite to 26 countries and watched by about 400 million people and now it is most famous for the segment starring The Beatles. They broadcast a live set singing All You Need Is Love, for which they were seated on stools, accompanied by a small orchestra and many friends, who sang along. It was done after one rehearsal take.

... from the Yellow Submarine film (July 17, 1968) (2.25 MB, wmv, colour).
Yellow Submarine was a 1968 animated film based on the music of The Beatles. This is a scene from the 'Sea Of Science' sequence of the film that was not as heavily animated as some of the others: the majority of the scene was 'super-imposed' against an actual oscilloscope display. This is a George Harrison song, featuring unusual instrumentation, including distorted trumpets, a reverbed pipe organ, chimes and a glockenspiel. Some instruments are backwards.

... at Sunny Heights, Weybridge (Nov 3, 1967) (2.70 MB, wmv, colour).
Magical Mystery Tour was a psychedelic film by The Beatles for the BBC-TV. Much of it was improvised (the actors were urged to make up their own characters) and filmed in September and October. It includes musical sequences for several songs. George shooted the sequence for Blue Jay Way the last filming day.

... at The Little Theatre, Southport (Aug 27, 1963) (20.7 MB, mpeg, b&w).
So yesterday was the 49th anniversary of the day John met Paul and here is their first McCartney/Lennon released song. This clip includes footage from the BBC-TV documentary The Mersey Sound. The Beatles mimed their released version of the song for the documentary but this was not used. They were also filmed playing Twist And Shout (one slightly slower version) and She Loves You (only the last one was originally broadcasted, on Oct 9 - John's 23rd birthday).

... at EMI Studio One, London (May 19, 1966) (21.0 MB, wmv, colour)
The Beatles made their own promo videos for their singles mainly because of time constraints on their part: there were too many people asking them to perform live on their shows. The videos presented here were aired on June 05, 1966, in the Ed Sullivan Show. Ringo films a special introduction for the films of each song. The others stood or sat on a piano next to him in the studio.

... at The Chiswick House, London (May 20, 1966) (20.8 MB, mpeg, colour).
The Beatles took the genre of promotional videos to new heights with their groundbreaking films for Strawberry Fields Forever and Penny Lane in 1967, but they began with these other two in 1966. They shot four promotional videos for Paperback Writer (two in color intended for the USA and two in black and white for the UK). This is a color film of them lip-syncing or just sitting in a garden.

... in the gardens and conservatory of The Chiswick House and at EMI Studio One, London (May 19 & 20, 1966) (51.4 MB, mpeg, colour and black & white).
Did The Beatles invent MTV? Paperback Writer and Rain were the first conceptual promos aired on TV. The idea was to distribute them for broadcast on TV variety shows in other countries. By the time they stopped touring in late 1966, they used these films to, in effect, tour for them. Let's go backwards!

... at The Budokan Hall, Tokyo (June 30, 1966) (28.5 MB, mpeg, colour).
The Beatles' first concert in Japan started at 18:35 and was recorded on video using 3 color TV-cam and 3 monochrome TV-cam. They wore dark green suits instead of the light striped suits seen the next day. This is their performance of She's A Woman and you can see how Paul's microphone was swing and why Brian Epstein did not allow this take. It seems that Brian brought the light-suit version's master tape to England, so there's only dark-suit version left in Japan.

... at The Budokan Hall, Tokyo (July 01, 1966) (17.1 MB, wmv, colour).
This is the complete afternoon concert with The Beatles wearing grey suits. The day before they were recorded on video by NTV, but Paul's microphone was in bad condition (swing left and right), so Brian Epstein wanted to re-record it the next day. In the morning of this concert day Paul and John escaped from the hotel: Paul went to the imperial palace garden with Mal Evans and John went to the Oriental Market and Asahi Garaley at Harajuku. It was 40 years ago yesterday!

... at The Circus Krone-Bau, Munich (June 24, 1966) (20.9 MB, mpeg, b&w). 40 years before this podcast was born The Beatles started their tour in Germany being their first concert at the Circus Krone-Bau. This is their performance of Nowhere Man, about 9 & 1/2 weeks before their last concert tour appearance ever. Hours before the concert, Munich police discover a ticket falsification and later in the day it was reported that, their Hamburg pal, Klaus Voormann may replace Jack Bruce in Manfred Mann. Also George Martin married his wife, Judy.

... at The Roundhouse Theatre, London (Dec 1968) (52.1, MB mpeg, colour).
The Rolling Stones TV colour special included guest performances by Jethro Tull, The Who, Marianne Faithfull, Taj Mahal and John Lennon & Yoko Ono backed by Eric Clapton (lead guitar), Keith Richards (switching to bass), Mitch Mitchell (drums) and a violinist - Ivry Gitlist. This is The Dirty Mac's version of Yer Blues.

... at The Cavern Club, Liverpool (Aug 22, 1962) (4.47 MB, wmv, black & white).
Unsatisfied with the audio from the August film, Granada TV sent a recording crew back to The Cavern (Sept 5) to re-record The Beatles' night time performance with the intention to dub the recording onto the film. This is a collage of the alternate shots set to that audio of Kansas City/Hey! Hey! Hey!.

... in Liverpool (Aug 22, 1962) (7.16 MB, wmv, black & white).
The Beatles were filmed playing Kansas City/Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey and this is what is seen in the alternate clips but the audio was lost. All the alternate shots that have become publicly available are silent but it is apparent other songs are being performed. Some speculate that Money (That's All I Want) was one of them.

... at The Cavern Club, Liverpool (Aug 22, 1962) (5.28 MB, wmv, black & white).
Several additional alternate camera angle shots were edited into the Some Other Guy performance as this footage shows. It is from a single camera shot and, with the exception of a brief edit, is unbroken. Bob Wooler announcing "It's The Beatles!" is another one of the slight differences, but we still can hear the male audience member shouting "We want Pete!" and then John replying "Yeah".

... at The Cavern Club, Liverpool (Aug 22, 1962) (20.9 MB, mpeg, b&w).
"At this midday session at The Cavern, we proudly present The Beatles!".
During the lunchtime show they were filmed by Granada TV for the Know The North programme, but this was not shown until a year later, during the Beatlemania, on Scene At 6:30 (Nov 06, 1963). Some say this is the first filming of them but not exactly. At least, this is the first tape featuring Ringo on drums.

... at Chappell Studios, London (Nov 21, 1967) (55.14 MB, mpeg, colour).
This session was filmed during the Paul McCartney's demo of the theme for
Cilla Black’s BBC TV series and was used in the promo for the song, featuring
the finished version, however here you can listen to that demo made this day.

... at EMI Studio Two, London (Feb 27, 1964) (11.58 MB, mpeg, black & white). This was a silent film of them working and enjoying themselves while recording And I Love Her. It was used in numerous documentaries including The Making Of A Hard Day's Night. The song featuring here is Misery, from their first LP.

... I FEEL FINE, Take 1 (mp3) at Studio Two, EMI Studios, London (Oct 18, 1964).

I Feel Fine, a John Lennon composition, holds the distinction, at least according to Lennon himself, as being the first record to make deliberate use of the dreaded phenomenon known as feedback. From the beginning, the song adorned its distinctive feedback introduction, achieved by Paul plucking the A note on his bass with John picking up the feedback through his guitar.
This first take is played by The Beatles in a different key from the released version, in the key of A at this point, a whole tone higher than the commercially released version in G. It features a raw Lennon vocal that, although rough in places, is still interesting to hear. The overall playing is choppy, almost sloppy in places.
The take breaks down at the solo break ...

... but two of us still got a long and winding road stretching out ahead ... and that other one is you! ... so take your ticket to ride and let's get on our way back home!

P.S. This is a place to share some music and videos ... but what's more: to share good feelings! So everybody is very welcome! Without your comments it has not too much sense. What have you got to say?!
