This review is from: Savage Young Beatles - Interview (Audio CD)

Interviews are O.K. However, two hours worth is a little too much. The four "musical" tracks featured on this CD are very old, pre-Ed Sullivan Beatles songs. Although I am glad that Pete Best is getting some recognition. Let's face it, the very early Beatles weren't the musical giants they turned out to be in 1964, and afterwards. The early Beatles were crude and rough, just learning their "chops."

This "interview CD" is also a bit contradictory. The title is "Savage Young Beatles." However, Disc 2 features one of the last interviews that John and Yoko conducted. This is very misleading.

Talk is fine. But, I would like to have a little more singing from the best band in history. I would definitely avoid this CD -- unless you are an absolute Beatles fanatic who needs to own everything with their name on it. Then again, if this is the case, you wouldn't care what I have to say; you will buy it anyway.

These are very good interviews with Pete Best. They give much insight into Pete himself and to what became of his status as a Beatle. The four music tracks are OK with Pete on the drums. The Lennon interview is OK but I really like this to hear what Pete Best had to say about it all.

I first heard music wheni was 3 i know that The Beatles are mainly just backup playeres for this album or cd but they definately had what it takes to do the job they were really the topper of the mostesst. I only wish that they would play some of these smashing recordings on the radio they are great thank you Mark Williams
