Special Gatefold Edition
"Riding the wave of the German beat craze of the early sixties, British singer Tony Sheridan became a regular on the Hamburg club circuit, recruiting an ever-changing roster of back-up musicians that included, in 1961, the Beatles featuring John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison and Pete Best.
Although still very much on the scene, bassist Stu Sutcliffe did not appear on these sessions.
While most of the songs here are covers sung by Sheridan, Lennon and Harrison did write the instrumental 'Cry For A Shadow.' Hamburg is also where the Beatles first picked up the mop-top. "
"Before beginning their recording career, The Beatles recorded a few tracks in Hamburg in May 1961 as the backup group for British singer Tony Sheridan. Some of these recordings were released on singles on 1961, but they began to turn up on albums only after the Beatles became famous. This should in no way be considered their first album - Not only were their skills rudimentary, but Sheridan takes all the lead vocals on this set of fairly tame covers of popular and early rock standards. Only "Cry For A Shadow" was an instrumental written by John Lennon and George Harrison (the only one ever made!), and was responsible for bringing the group to the attention of Brian Epstein."
