Text on the Inside Sleeve

What can be said about the Beatles that has not already been said or written many times before? The truth is - very little. The history of the Liverpudlian group has been chronicled many times during the last 1 5 years and inevitaoly will be repeated in the years to come. More than any pop group before them, and any who have followed since, the'Fab Four' from Liverpool created a whole new wave of music which long ago installed them safely in the annals of pop history.
Now though, for the very first time, Beatles' fans can hear the embryo music which paved the way for what was to erupt on an unsuspecting world in the mid and late Sixties. Any pop fan could tell you about how the group's early performing days at the Hamburg Star Club in West Germany first showed their potential to an audience outside of Liverpool until now however that music has been lost to all except those relative few who were priveleged to hear it first-hand. What you are now holding in your hands is effectively a large slice of pop history..... these two albums contain some two dozen songs given the inimitable Beatles treatment, blemishes and all. Many of the songs were to appear later on the group's first studio albums for Parlophone, EMI, and became essential conclusions in their stage performances during the ensuing months after they swept to success with Love Me Do and Please Please Me, others had seemingly been lost for all time, at least until the production of these albums which now enable everyone to hear the Beatles as they were during those long-ago but still raw and exciting years when every beat group from Liverpool worth its salt was attempting to become part of the Hamburg Scene.
The appearance on record of this unique Beatles recording has in itself being a major saga worthy of inclusion in a Cecil B. DeMille-type movie. During the Sixties Ted'Kingsize' Taylor and the Dominoes were an integral part of this Hamburg Scene - as well as claiming to be the first beat group to come out of Liverpool - and it was during one such visit to the StarClub that Taylor recorded some three hours of performance with his domestic tape recorder and using a single microphone. Amongst the groups whose music was caught on tape were Taylor and the Dominoes, Cliff Bennett and the Rebel Rousers, and - the Beatles
When the Beatles returned to Liverpool, the tape was for a time forgotten. Kingsize Taylor later offered the material to Brian Epstein who turned it down on the grounds that It would not be commercially viable - although he did offer £20 all the same. The tape was eventually rediscovered.
These Hamburg recordings include pre-EMI versions of Twist and Shout, A Taste of Honey, Kansas City, l Saw Her Standing There, Roll Over Beethoven, Long Tall Sally and Ask Me Why. It has been said that the Beatles' best years as a performing group was between 1962 and 1963 but these recordings firmly illustrate that even before the group signed with EMI, their potential was dynamite. A lot of time and considerable financial investment has been spent on each of the 20-plus tracks, transferring the original mono takes to 16-track form and improving their sound quality. It should be emphasised however that no way has the actual music been interfered with - nothing has been added or detracted from the Beatles' original performance, all that has been is that the tape has been cleaned and what were originally very raw recordings have now become extremely listenable product Of course the music isn't what you would expect to hear from a studio in 1977 but despite that these recordings were made before the Beatles became 'name' artists, their music even then had that undeniable drive which took them to the top. The music has immense appeal, both as a collector's item and as a general item. What you will be listening to is a piece of musical history, and two albums which must become treasured additions to any Beatle fan's record collection.
To recap on those Hamburg days, the Beatles first visited West Germany in late 1960 when the group's line-up was still John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison, Stuart Sutcliffe (who was to die tragically young) and drummer Pete Best. Playing in Hamburg either made or broke every Liverpudlian beat group that worked there but it was soon obvious to everyone that this was one group which would be going places. After returning to Liverpool in early 1961 to do a residency at the now-legendary Cavern Club, the Beatles made a second trip to Hamburg in April 1961 during which visit they recorded several titles with Tony Sheridan for a German Record Company. It was during one visit to Hamburg that these tapes originated and, as luck would have it, although Ringo Starr did not officially join the group until August 1962, which was just about the time the Beatles were having their first recording sessions for EMI, he happened to be 'sitting in' for Pete Best on the very night that Ted Taylor decided to make some amateur recordings with his portable machine
And so tothe actual recordings. After a rather garbled German introduction we go straight into l Saw Her Standing There which features an identical arrangement to that which appeared on the Please Please Me LP. Roll Over Beethoven has George giving a full¬throated vocal, Hippy Hippy Shake was a number two hit for Swinging Blue Jeans in early 1964 but even two years before that the Beatles were featuring it as a standard inclusion in their live performances. John Lennon comes to the fore on Sweet Little Sixteen
The album throws up a few surprises - for instance a complete rip-off of Frank Ifield's best-seller of that period, l Remember You, featuring Lennon on the harmonica Paul McCartney does a surprisingly straight version of the old Marlene Dietrich classic, Falling ln Love Again, while George Harrison features on the Phil Spector classic, To Know Her Is To Love Her.
No matter how many thousands of words were written about the Beatles, the only way for anyone to appreciate their full appeal is to listen to the music. It explains everything. The Beatles" music has managed to span every generation and as ambassadors of pop, no one is likely to beat them. The Star Club recordings tell all. The music is raw; vital and exciting and goes a long way to demonstrating why John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison and Ringo Starr became such musical legends. The humor, the sheer talent and the audience excitement almost hits you in the eyes............
Until now these tapes have been heard by no more than a handful of people but it is right that these Hamburg moments should be shared with the millions of Beatles fans worldwide. Four years ago the respected British pop music magazine Melody Maker reviewed the Hamburg tapes as they were in their original state and declared that the music neither injured the reputations of the artists or insulted the intelligence of the listeners. The writer declared that the recordings were a "unique and important document" of the most musical unit of the last decade. More than that they are history and provide the best insight into the early life of the Beatles which most people had thought lost for good.

CHRIS WHITE London, March 1977
 

1.1 - I Saw Her Standing There

One, two, free, four!
Well, she was just seventeen,
You know what I mean,
And the way she looked was way beyond compare.
So how could I dance with another (ooh)
And I saw her standin' there.
Well she looked at me, and I, I could see
That before too long I'd fall in love with her.
She wouldn't dance with another (whooh)
And I saw her standin' there.
Well, my heart went boom,
When I crossed that room,
And I held her hand in mine...
Whoah, we danced through the night,
And we held each other tight,
And before too long I fell in love with her.
Now I'll never dance with another (whooh)
Since I saw her standing there
Well, my heart went boom,
When I crossed that room,
And I held her hand in mine...
Whoah, we danced through the night,
And we held each other tight,
And before too long I fell in love with her.
Now I'll never dance with another (whooh)
Since I saw her standing there

1.2 - Roll Over Beethoven

Well gonna write a little letter
Gonna mail it to my local D.J.
It's a rockin' little record
I want my jockey to play
Roll over Beethoven
I gotta hear it again today
You know my temperature's risin'
And the jukebox's blowin' a fuse
My hearts beatin' rhythm
And my soul keeps singing the blues
Roll over Beethoven
And tell Tchaikovsky the news
I got a rockin' pneumonia
I need a shot of rhythm and blues
I think I got it off the writer
Sittin' down by the rhythm review
Roll over Beethoven
We're rockin' in two by two
Well if you fell you like it
Well get your lover and reel and rock it
Roll it over and move on up
Just jump around and reel and rock it
Roll it over
Roll over Beethoven
A rockin' in two by two , oh

Well early in the mornin'
I'm a givin' you the warnin'
Don't you step on my blue suede showes
Hey little little
Gonna play my fiddle
Ain't got nothing to lost
Roll over Beethoven
And tell Tchaikovsky the news
You know she winks like a glow worm
Dance like a spinnin' top
She got a crazy partner
Oughta see 'em reel an rock
Long as she's got a dime
The music will never stop
Roll over Beethoven
Roll over Beethoven
Roll over Beethoven
Roll over Beethoven
Roll over Beethoven
And dig these rhythm and blues

1.3 - Hippy Hippy Shake

1.4 - Sweet Little Sixteen

They're really rocking in Boston,
In Philadelphia PA,
Deep in the heart of Texas,
On down the Frisco Bay.
All over Saint Louis
And down in New Orleans.
All the cats want to dance with
Sweet little sixteen.
Sweet little sixteen,
She's just got to have
About half a million
Framed autopraphs.
Her wall is filled with pictures,
She gets them one by one.
Becomes so excited,
Oh watch her at the run boy.
Oh mommy mommy,
Please may I go.
You know it's such a sight to see
Somebody steal the show.
Oh daddy daddy,
I beg of you.
Please say it to mommy
It's alright with you.
They're really rocking in Boston,
In Philadelphia PA,
Deep in the heart of Texas,
On down the Frisco Bay.
All over Saint Louis
And down in New Orleans.
All the cats want to dance with
Sweet little sixteen.

Sweet little sixteen
She's got the grown up blues.
Tight dresses and lipstick,
She's sporting in high heeled boots.
Oh but tomorrow morning
She'll have to change her trend
Become sweet sixteen
And back in class again.
They're really rocking in Boston,
In Philadelphia PA,
Deep in the heart of Texas
And down the Frisco Bay.
All over Saint Louis,
On down in New Orleans.
All the cats want to dance with
Sweet little sixteen.

'Cause we love you,
Mr. Moonlight.

I'll come back for the honey and you.

Yours was the kiss
That awoke my heart,
There lingers still,

That taste of honey...
Tasting much sweeter than wine.

For the honey (for the honey)

She's got a way that make me ask like a fool
Spend my money that she plays me good

So won't you give me someone loving me

Ain't nothin' shakin' but the leaves on the trees
She lost my heart and through the way that key
Ain't nothin' shakin' but the leaves on the trees
There's nothin' shakin' but the leaves on the trees...
There's nothing shaking
But the leaves on the trees
There's nothing shaking
But the leaves on the trees
There's nothing shaking
But the leaves on the trees
There's nothing shaking
But the leaves on the trees

3.2 - To Know Her is to Love Her

To know know know her
Is to love love love her.
Just to see her smile
Makes my life worthwhile.
To know know know her
Is to love love love her
And I do, and I do, and I do.
And I do, and I do, and I do.

I'll be good to her
And I'll make love to her.
Everyone says there'll come a day
When I'll walk alongside of her.
To know know know her
Is to love love love her
And I do and I do and I do.
And I do and I do and I do.

Why can't she see,
How blind can she be?
Someday she'll see
That she were meant for me.

To know know know her
Is to love love love her.
Just to see her smile
Makes my life worthwhile.
To know know know her
Is to love love love her
And I do and I do and I do.

3.3 - Little Queenie

I got the lumps in my throat
When I saw her coming down the isle
I get the wiggles in my knee
When she looked at me and sweetly smiled
There she is again
Standing over by the record machine
Yeh she looks like the model
On the cover of a magazine
Why she's too cute
To be a minute over seventeen
Meanwhile I was thinking
She's in the mood, no need to break it
I got a chance, I ought to take it
If she'll dance, we can make it
Come on Queenie, let's shake it
Go go go little Queenie
Go go go little Queenie
I said: go go go little Queenie

There she is again
Standing over by the record machine
She's looking like the model
On the cover of a magazine
Why she's too cute
To be a minute over seventeen
Meanwhile I was still thinking,
If it's a slow song, we'll omit it
If it's a rocker, that'll get it
And if it's good, she'll admit it
Come on, Queenie, let's get with it
Go go go little Queenie
Go go go little Queenie
Go go go little Queenie

There she is again
Standing over by the record machine
Yeh she looks like the model
On the cover of a magazine
Why she's too cute
To be a minute over seventeen
Meanwhile I was still thinking
She's in the mood, no need to break it
I got a chance, I ought to take it
If she'll dance, we can make it
Come on Queenie, let's shake it
Go go go little Queenie
Go go go little Queenie
Go go go little Queenie

3.5 - Ask Me Why

I love you, 'cause you tell me things I want to know.
And it's true that it really only goes to show,
That I know,
That I, I, I, I should never, never, never be blue.

Now you're mine, my happiness still makes me cry.
And in time, you'll understand the reason why,
If I cry,
It's not because I'm sad, but you're the only love that I've ever had.

I can't believe it's happened to me
I can't conceive of any more misery.
Ask me why, I'll say I love you,
And I'm always thinking of you.

I love you, 'cause you tell me things I want to know.
And it's true that it really only goes to show,
That I know,
That I, I, I, I should never, never, never be blue.

Now you're mine, my happiness still makes me cry.
And in time, you'll understand the reason why,
If I cry,
It's not because I'm sad, but you're the only love that I've ever had.

I can't believe it's happened to me
I can't conceive of any more misery.
Ask me why, I'll say I love you,
And I'm always thinking of you.

Ask me why, I'll say I love you,
And I'm always thinking of you.
You................

3.7 - Hallelujah, I Love Her So

Let me tell you about a girl I know,
She's my baby and I love her so.
Every morning when the sun comes up,
She brings me coffee in my favourite cup.
Yes I know,
Hallelujah I just love her so.

When I call her on the telephone,
She says: baby, I'm all alone.
By the time I count from one to four,
She'll be knocking on my door.

In the evening when the sun goes down
And there ain't nobody else around,
She kisses me and she holds me tight.
She says: baby everything is alright.
Yes I know,
Hallelujah I just love her so.
Hallelujah I just love her so,
Hallelujah I just love that chick so.

In the evening when the sun goes down

Hallelujah I just love that chick so.

Oh way out and blue
Red sails in the sunset

Make straight for the shore
We'll marry tomorrow
And you'll go sailing no more

Way out of the sea
Oh carry my love one

Make straight for the shore

Oh carry my love one

Home safely to me

And stars that dwell
Like the rain out of the blue
When my life is through
And the angels ask me to recall
The thrill of it all
