The recently unearthed recording from the spring of 1963 captures the boys from Liverpool on the precipice of superstardom—and blew this Beatles super fan’s mind.
There are gigs that are storied for the music that was played at them and there are gigs that are storied for their stories. And sometimes there are shows that are storied for both.
We may read about tantalizing concerts from the 1964 UK fall tour—when the Beatles undertook “I Should Have Known Better” and “I’m Happy Just to Dance with You” for the only time on stage—and the 1965 UK winter tour—which featured their only live performances of “We Can Work It Out”—but no doughty tapes have stepped forward to say, “I exist, hear me!”
That meant that the band’s concert repertoire consisted of those two singles and first-album cuts, plus whatever else they chose to cover during this changing, fascinating interregnum period in one regard, and the full-stop arrival of brilliant rock and roll songwriters in another. Were this approach ever going to work on someone, it would have been Epstein, who was no stranger to posh settings, and, more importantly, appreciated a well-crafted epistle. Plus, Moores’ family—like Epstein’s—were movers and shakers in the Liverpool retail business.
Remarkably—but also as befitting them—the Beatles were primed to impress. They were a band who won you over, whether you were a drunken sailor in Hamburg, a shy secretary on her lunch break at the Cavern, or ostensibly the whole of America on“I would say I grew up at that very instant,” Bloomfield remembers. “It sounds like a bit of an exaggeration, but I realized this was something from a different planet.
