The Beatles
Live At The BBC 1962-65

Album US on Continuing Saga Records label
Rock (Pop Rock, Rock’n’Roll)

2-disc unofficial release taking tracks and announcer segments from the 1982 BBC radio Special "Beatles on the Beeb", produced by Kevin Howlett. This special featured tape sources direct from the BBC, so the audio sonics here are far superior than previous releases (until the official EMI/Apple albums were issued) Most of the announcer segments are edited out, leaving mostly the music to enjoy. Some parts of the original broadcast of the Beatles talking are left in. Some of the tracks are pitched fast, with varying degrees of excellent to poor quality. The front jacket states just "BBC" but "The Beatles Live At The BBC 1962-65" is stated on back of jacket and spine. The discs are not marked "Disc 1" or "Disc 2". Disc 1 labels are bright orange, disc 2 labels are pink-purple. There is also a version where the labels are blue and yellow. The jacket states "Another International Masterpiece" but the labels are credited to Continuing Saga Records, with "The Wizards Quest" as the title on all 4 labels. Catalog number was derived from the matrix data. CORRECTIONS: A10: Pop Go The Beatles intro is NOT listed on the jacket C3: Incorrectly listed as I'm Gonna Find My Baby C5: From Us To You intro is NOT listed on the jacket
