This set the best and most comprehensive Beatles BBC collection. Obviously the BBC never released this much stuff. In the 80's BEEB Transcription Records (fake label) produced amazing vinyl albums in beautiful glossy covers with artwork that mirrored EMI releases. To start we get all six tracks with Pete Best on drums. Particularly interesting because the two shows were recorded before live audiences, so we get to hear Pete's drumming in a live setting which allows us to compare his "gig" playing style with Ringo's, forever a contentious issue in Beatles history. Along with the 1962 Star Club recordings this is as close as we can get to the real authentic Beatles, playing songs from their vast live repertoire, many of which never saw proper studio recordings. Killer live stuff like "The Hippy Hippy Shake'', "Clarabella", "I'm Gonna Sit Right Down And Cry Over You" and the superb performance of "Soldier Of Love", it's a chance to hear what they might have sounded like during those lunchtime sessions in the Cavern, or gigs in the Locarno or Manchester Ballroom's. THE COMPLETE BBC SESSIONS, put out by the good people back in 2010. This is the updated and expanded ten-disc set, all fifty-two Beatles shows aired on BBC Radio between 1962 and 1965. So, for your extensive listening pleasure, presented for you with The Beatles' COMPLETE BBC SESSIONS, nearly twenty solid hours of nonstop listening spread over ten discs. Enjoy this humongous stopgap.
