The Beatles 1962-??-??
Raw Energy, Unknown, Unknown
Set 1
John, Paul George and Pete drove down to London to audition for Decca on January 1, 1962 after a year of touring the clubs of Hamburg and Liverpool. They played a set of rock songs and ballads which displayed the talent and raw energy that made them the most exciting club band at the time. The Beatles passed the audition. Decca signed them to record these songs as singles and released them in England over the next few months.
And while you might have heard some other versions of these early Beatle recordings, you have never heard anything like this one. Previous releases may have been interesting to listen to for historical reasons, but the tapes were either recorded so poorly to begin with or were so damaged over time that it was impossible to enjoy the Beatles music. These twelve selections from the Decca tapes were remastered using the revolutionary FDS digital processing system, which actually repairs and improves the original master recordings. No hiss, no pops, no audio distortion.
If John and Paul were recorded while singing through one microphone, the FDS system would seperate their voices and reproduce them true to life. If some of George's guitar work was cancelled out by Pete's cymbal crashes, each sound would be restored, actually better than on the original master tape.
So what you have is the Beatles at their rawest, most playful, captured with complete clarity by the FDS digital system. This CD is the first recording that allows you to enjoy the early Beatles whether you're a Beatles historian or just a fan of great rock and roll.
