Free Music Notes for Live at the BBC
Free Music Review: An Awesome Collection
Hit: 5 Stars
If you are a serious Beatles' fan, you have got to have "Live at the BBC". I happened to be listening to the radio (which I don't normally do) about twenty years ago when these songs were introduced to the public, I believe, for the first time. I am still playing the tapes I made off the air some twenty years ago today!!I believe the version of "I Saw Her Standing There" on this collection is the best rendition I have ever heard. Listen to "Some Other Guy" and you get some idea of the energy and enthusiasm that made The Beatles so very popular in the early days. Many, many great songs and short interviews rendering unique insight into The Beatles as the people they were all those years ago.
Free Music Review: Live Beatles
Hit: 5 Stars
This album is a very good collection and will be worth buying for the hardcore Beatle fan. Some of the sound quality is poor in spots, but over all it is very acceptable. I have the older version released in 1995, and I'm not sure if there are any real differences between the two versions. This 2 CD set features many songs that are unavailable on any other recording. Highlights include covers of Chuck Berry's Johnny B. Goode and Too Much Monkey Business, Lucille, and many other great covers and some well known originals. If you want to hear how the Beatles sounded live in the early days, then you'll want to pick up this set. Good liner notes too.Free Music Review: Remarkable!
Hit: 5 Stars
I like the Beatles a lot, as well as a lot of late 50s/early 60s music... so here you go! Two great things together!
Although I would recommend the first set of the anthology as well as this to the hard core Beatles fans, they cover similar time periods in Beatle history, I recommend this one first, if anything for its fun value (and the lads sound like they are having a lot of fun!). There are nice alternate versions of early Beatles originals, true, but the real gems are the covers, something music fans often don't find themselves saying. Seriously, take a listen and try this one out for a beautiful look at pre-1966 Beatles.
Free Music Review: The ones that got away
Hit: 5 Stars
We brits have had the joy of listening to this superb double album for quite a while now. I can still remember the excitement of going onto the record shop and asking if they'd got the new beatles album.(and I'm 46!!) Although the recordings are not of the same quality as their studio albums, it really does give you a flavour of what the unadorned fabs must have sounded like live, under the screams and mass hysteria. Those radio shows were a real life line to pop starved souls in the 60's.Before I drown in my own wave of nostalgia, I'd just say, buy it. You won't regret it.

Free Music Review: Excellent Beatles
Hit: 5 Stars
This is just as good as a new Beatle album.Its hard to believe such good quality music had been stored away and kept from their fans for so long.
The speach additions to this Cd gives you the feel that it is a live recording,and its great to hear their good natured sense of humor here.
Some songs the quality seems to be a bit scratchy,but it still is a fantastic collection of rare and unreleased recordings.
I actually think that it is more listenable that the anthology releases.
If you are a Beatle fan and dont have this,you are missing out on a great Cd.
