"A word of warning -- The Beatles only appear on 8 of these recordings, 2 by themselves (Ain't She Sweet & Cry for a Shadow) and 6 backing Tony Sheridan (Why; My Bonnie; Nobody's Child; Sweet Georgia Brown; When The Saints Go Marching In (on some CDs "The Saints"); and If You Love Me Baby (on some CDs "Take Out Some Insurance on Me Baby)). The remaining songs are either Sheridan solo or with "The Beat Brothers", who are NOT The Beatles. If you want to be a completist, this set is almost there, but The Beatles performed one other song with Sheridan, "Swanee River", which is VERY hard to find. I would recommend finding a collection with all nine songs."

A great CD if your're into the early Beatles.

"If you love the music of the Beatles, you might also like to know where they, musically, come from. In that case this CD is a great oppotunity. With drive and enthusiasm Tony Sheridan and The Beatles give you some of the greatest rock'n'roll songs. Listen and enjoy! However, if you don't know all the later studio work of the Beatles, this might not be the right place to start."

Beatles very first LP!

"What a mono it is!! poor recording quality!
We can say this one is the worst standard band's album who was recorded in the beginning of 1960-1961. This one is recorded in mono only not stereo!!! Tony Sheridan was on the road in Hamburg and sang lead vocal. The beatles only backed him on the songs such as YA YA and My bonnie.
This early beatles's phase is absolutely tame. They covered many american rock n roll composers in that era. need I say more?Check out the early records from other better rock bands like deep purple & Led Zeppelin studio albums! their early days were much much better than Beatles."
