From The Cavern To The World!

In last weeks episode we took an indepth dive into The Beatles record breaking appearance at Shea Stadium, New York in August 1965.

This week we backtrack exactly 3 years to the August of 1962. When a film crew from a regional television magazine programme visited the Cavern in Liverpool, to film John, Paul, George and newly appointed drummer Ringo Starr, perform one of their now legendary lunchtime performances.

This historic clip of The Beatles performing Some Other Guy demonstrates what a great live band they had become following years of playing clubs and halls around the north west of England and of course, Hamburg.

In this episode of Fixing A Hole, we discuss how the filming came about. What other songs they performed that day. How due to sound issues a further recording date was organised. And how after all this effort, the clip was consigned to the vault until Beatlemania erupted in Great Britain in the autumn of 1963.
