Biography

"The story began in Harold Macmillan’s “never had it so good” ’50s Britain. It should be fiction: four teenagers with no more than eight O’Levels between them, running and biking and busing and busking all over Liverpool in search of new chords and old guitars and half-decent drum kit and any gig at all.
They were determined to amount to something – in George’s words “we just had this amazing inner… Read more in Amazon's The Beatles Store

John Sposato (Syracuse, NY, USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Live at the Star-Club 1962 Vol. 2 (Audio CD)

Picking up where I left off with Volume 1, this album has intrigued Beatle people for over three decades since the original LP was released. Various indies have reissued it, so a major taking it on opened a new can of worms.
There are more songs from this era than these two volumes have to offer, enough for a third, but maybe Apple will release them all properly someday.
This may be hard for some people to hear because of the primitive method used to make this record despite all the hard work that went into cleaning it up. If even rawer recordings could be used and restored for 'Anthology 1', then maybe EMI will give this album a go. Still, it can be hard to decipher everything being sung or said. One must listen very closely to get a word in edgeways.
There may be no other live recording of the band from before 1963 in existence, and if there was, it'd be worth millions of pounds at Sotheby's. These were lean times for the boys, so they only had occasional access to a tape machine or the like prior to 1962 as most Northerners couldn't afford such a thing in the postwar era.
The historical significance makes the album a must for diehard fans. Only if there was such a thing as a time machine could you really go back and see how it was back then!
