| Set 1 |  From pg 215 of Mark Lewisohn’s ‘Complete Beatles Chronicle’: ‘FRIDAY 25th MARCH 1966 The Vale, London Since forming NEMS Enterprises in June 1962, Brian Epstein had launched or acquired a number of other business ventures. In September 1964 he had bought a controlling stake in the Liverpool pop paper Mersey Beat, renaming it Music Echo and giving it a national perspective and distribution. Music Echo then merged with IPC’s well-established Disc, landing Epstein a 50 % stake in the newly-named Disc And Music Echo, unveiled on 23rd April 1966. One of the promotions devised to push the re-launch was free distribution of a flexi-disc single containing interviews with top singers and groups, made available to readers on submission of a number of completed coupons. The disc was called Sound Of The Stars and, probably because of the Epstein connection, the Beatles contributed. They were recorded between 3.00 and 3.30 this afternoon, interviewed by Radio Caroline disc-jockey Tom Lodge at a photographic studio at 1 The Vale, in the Chelsea area of west London (Following which the Beatles got down to the main business of the afternoon, a photo shoot with Robert Whitaker which produced, among other shots, the famous “Butcher†photographs). Devised and produced by NEMS’ Tony Barrow, Sound Of The Stars also featured Cilla Black, Cliff Richard, the Hollies, Pete Townshend, Spencer Davis, the Walker Brothers, Sandie Shaw and others. The Beatles were briefly heard at the start of side one and then ended the second side of the disc with 1min37 secs of silly answers to silly questions.’ |

| Comment | Interview runs 21 mins and was taped at "The Captains Kitchen?" for the "Music Disc" paper. At least that is what they say at the start. There are many words spoken about "Radio Coroline", and a bumber at the end of the recording. They could after all be in Abbey Road and the whole "Beatles being in the radio studio" could be all these radio guys could get. |
