1. ASK ME WHY
(Lennon-McCartney)
2. BESAME MUCHO
(Velazquez-Skylar)
3. A PICTURE OF YOU
(Beveridge-Oakman)
NOTES. The last available recording with
Pete Best on drums. Again the tape which has
been preserved is of inferior quality.
THE SONGS:
1. "Ask Me Why". This live version predates the
Star Club one by six months and the officially released
version by seven. It is the first available version, although
very similar to later ones. Played 4 times at the BBC.
2. "Besame Mucho". One of the Beatles' favourite "classic"
songs. They performed it in their live act during 1961-62,
they played it at their Decca audition and their initial Parlo-
phone session (with Pete Best), and it was revived in 1969
and is shown in the film "Let It Be" , although
this is the only BBC rendition. The Beatles' version is
probably derived from the Coaster cover which had
good success in 1960. Lead vocalist: Paul.
3. "A Picture Of You". The only Beatles recording of this
song, which was a hit by Joe Brown and the Bruvvers and
had just entered the charts. George's first lead vocal at the BBC
