Please Please Me is the first album recorded by The Beatles, rush-released on 22 March 1963 in the United Kingdom to capitalise on the success of singles "Please Please Me" (#1 and "Love Me Do" (#17). Of the album's fourteen songs, eight were written by Lennon/McCartney, early evidence of what was later called "[their invention of] the self-contained rock band, writing their own hits and playing their own instruments!!!!
.In order for the album to contain fourteen songs (the norm for twelve inch vinyl pop albums in 1963 was to have seven songs on each side) ten more tracks were needed to add to the four sides of their first two singles recorded and released previously. Therefore, at 10.00 a.m. on Monday, 11 February, at Abbey Road Studios, the Beatles and George Martin started recording what was essentially their live act in 1963, and finished 585 minutes later (9 hours and 45 minutes). In three sessions that day (each lasting approximately three hours) they produced an authentic representation of the band's Cavern Club-era sound, as there were very few overdubs and edits. George Martin initially contemplated recording the "Please Please Me" LP live at the Cavern in front of their own audience and visited the Liverpool club to experience the Beatles phenomenon for himself.But when time constraints intervened he decided to book them into Abbey Road Studios instead, and simply record them virtually live. Martin said, "It was a straightforward performance of their stage repertoire - a broadcast, more or less." The day ended with a cover of "Twist and Shout", which had to be recorded last because John Lennon had a particularly bad cold and Martin feared the throat-shredding vocal would ruin Lennon's voice for the day. This performance, generally regarded as a classic, prompted Martin to say: "I don't know how they do it. We've been recording all day but the longer we go on the better they get!!!!!!
This album on offer is one of the hardest to find in this awesome condition!!! This being the 1st ever yellow and black label pressing,,, oficially the third pressing after the two gold and black labeled pressings!!!!!!!
