Speeches:
We were four guys ... that's all
We were four guys, that, eh... I met Paul, said, "Do you wanna join
my band", you know, and then George joined, and then Ringo joined.
We were just a band that made it very, very big, that's all.
Sometimes I'd borrow ... those still exits
Sometimes I'd borrow a tape recorder, a gurndig with a little green eye
and we'd sort of go round to my house and tried to record little things
such as... I remember 'Hallelujah, I Just Love Her So', 'cause I had the
Eddie Cochran record.
But those were very much home demos, very bad quality. I think a couple
of those still exits.
First of all ... it didn't do a thing here
First of all we made a recording with a fella called Tony Sheridan. We
were working in a club called 'The Top Ten Club' in Hamburg and we made
a recording with him called 'My Bonnie' which got to number Five in the
German hit parade, but, it never, it didn't do a thing over here
Brian was a beautiful guy ... he presented us well
Brian was a beautiful guy, Brain Epstein, and he was a, an intuitive,
theatrical guy and he knew we had something. He presented us well.
I secured them ... a Beatle drink even then
I secured them an audition at Decca on New Year's Day, 1962. They came
to London and stayed at the Royal Hotel paying 27 shillings a night for
bed and breakfest. They were poor and I wan't rich but we all celebrated
with Rum, Scotch and Coke which was becoming a Beatle drink even then.
Well, the recording test ... by my artists
Well, the recording test came and went. The people that decide about
these things at Decca said 'No'. Well, you can imagine I was more worried
about what I was going to say to the boysm having built up their hopes.So
I allowed myself a final 24 hours t oexhaust the remaining disc companies
and I booked into the Green Park Hotel. In the morning I took a cab to
the EMI Office Block in Manchester Square, London, to meet the man who
would within less than 2 years produce 16 number One discs by my artists.
We were performers ... in Britain
We were performers in Liverpool, Hamburg and round the dance halls, you
know and what we generated was fantastic. When
we played Straight Rock and there was nobody to touch us in Britain, you
know.
