- All the available footage from this mostly lost BBC TV performance. I have used the best audio sources available and fixed certain glitchy segments with clean audio. Around the first two minutes are fragments of audience shots, but the rest is very clean and enjoyable footage.

A month or so before that performance in Liverpool, I first heard The Beatles perform a pirated radio broadcast of I Wanna Hold Your Hand in my college dorm room in Illinois. They sounded unlike anything EVER heard before over here. I'll always remember that initial positive impression.
A lot of those kids are either in their late 70's or older. now..Most probably passed on, especially the adults...For those kids, that was the summer of their youth that I wish I was born in...And The Beatles live on, even when we're all gone..
The Beatles, who began their career playing in a cellar called "The Cavern" ended up to be the greatest selling act in show biz history.
The Beatles, the greatest band on earth!
This is perhaps late 63 and no other British Group could compete with the combined talent of The Beatles. The Dave Clark 5 were raw and hard driving but lacked The Beatles musicality. The Rolling Stones were much better than Clarke but lacked the vocal harmonies and songwriting skills of The Beatles thought they may have been more exciting on stage. But overall The Beatles were miles ahead of even lots of American performers. These guys have been together by 64 since the mid 1950s so they had the skills already and they were tight.
They worked, practiced, and paid their dues to get where they got!
The magic is still there. I was 12 years old when they first came to American audiences and why, so many of us boys decided we had to learn guitar.
WOW just Wow.. I'm 70 have have NEVER see this before.. Moms & Dads with their Kids appreciating this British "Tsunami" that was about to hit The World. The Newness of this Mass hysteria was so evident. You can tell the Fab 4 was just soakin it all in. This really was a Rock n Roll Honeymoon back then..
Paul McCartney projects gracefulness naturally while John Lennon projects Electrical tension naturally where the push and pull of energies between the 2 pillars of the Beatles formed the foundation of the Greatest Band in the World.
In these early live tracks, Harrison tone on the guitar was just magnificent. He gave the band a full, massive sound. Excellent work George!!!
I love seeing the different reactions of the parents in the audience …some grooving with the music, someone with fingers on her ears, some somber, some just sitting back enjoying the scene.
Paul was only 21 and george was 20. Amazing stuff.
I still remember the overpowering sense of excitement they created, those years, their sound and their charisma was unlike anything that went before, it's hard for younger people now to imagine that, because they influenced music till today, and set the new norm.
I had just turned two years old two days before. This chaos would escalate to a much larger scale two months later when the Beatles arrived in New York City. I will never get tired of watching this kind of footage and listening to Beatles music…ever!
Two months later they were off to America and the world!
The Beatles - Coming from a small club in Liverpool, England called the Cavern, ended up to be the greatest selling act in show biz history.
I was 14 at the time this event happened... by the time I was 16 1/2 I was playing guitar in a band...inspirational they were... and damn good !
Fun to re-live what they were at the beginning. I recall wearing the vinyl out from playing their albums over and over and over and over.... such great times !
Loved watching this!! Takes me back. Blessed to have grown up with the fun, beautiful , talented Beatles❣️
Terrific footage, thanks for the memories. Audience reaction is so very good to watch, it was never seen before and you`ll never see it again. What is it about their music that generates that appeal? A package of a new type of beat, melody and musicianship and good looking boys....note the girl audience.
