It was Granada TV and it was directed by Leslie Woodhead. The cameramen were John Blakeley & David Wood, sound was Phil Smith (me). The session was FILMED with an Auricon Pro600 camera. This camera was essentially a news camera and was very limited for recording sound. 2 mics only, one for the band and one for vocals. Take 2 of this version appears to have had the sound ‘doctored’.

Granada TV had filmed the performance on Aug 22, 1962. Granada had decided the original audio was inadequate and sent back an audio crew to re-record the audio on Sept. 5, 1962. Granada ultimately felt the footage was un-usable and was shelved until almost a year later, after Beatlemania had burst. It was first shown on "Scene at 6:30" on Nov. 6, 1963. The film has been re-shown and re-edited with cut-away shots and alternate stage shots (filmed during different song performances) ever since then. There's 3 different "audio" versions floating around. All distinguishable by the intros. Version 1, which is the original undubbed audio, has Bob Wooler simply announcing "Its The Beatles!" and also has the "we love Pete" at the end.
@kelhard563210 жыл бұрын
Version 2 has a "dubbed on" announcement by Bob Wooler saying "Live at the Cavern, we proudly present The Beatles!" This announcement was dubbed onto the "we love Pete" version Version 3 is the September re-recording dubbed onto the August film. Wooler''s intro here is "OK This is it, The Beatles sing Some Other Guy" Also, the end of the September re-recording has Lennon saying "We'll probably have to do it again."

This was Aug. 22, 1962 & Ringo had only been a Beatle since the 18th. It was the first time they were professionally filmed by Granada TV. They were asked by the filmmaker, Leslie Woodhead, to perform "Some Other Guy" twice. The muted part is them singing "Money" (with "One After 909" playing on the soundtrack) All this is explained in Mark Lewisohn's (fantastic) book "Tune In-The Beatles: All These Years." The voice speaking at the end is their manager, Brian Epstein.

I do seem to remember hearing of this TV recording before - wasn't it shown as a short segment on the burgeoning local North-West/Liverpool young people's music/club scene as part of a general current affairs programme?

One thing I love about this clip is the huge light pointing at the stage. I used to work at a small venue about the size of the Cavern and we sometimes had acts filmed there by TV crews. They'd bring in all this lighting equipment in addition to everything we had. The shows had a weird brightness to them in the room but they looked great on camera. So I'm imagining the Cavern was normally a really dark place and the Beatles were getting blinded by that light, but somebody kept saying "it'll look great on film, lads."

I've been a Beatles fan for a very, very long time, and I have to say, I've never seen all of the clips included in this one video. I've seen bits of some of the rare parts, but nothing like the sheer amount of stuff. Amazing, and it's good to see someone who knows what they're doing when it comes to correcting some of the contrast, levels, and exposure of the footage - even resurrecting some of the footage that was almost lost to time. Bravo Guernica!

This first song is one of the most important and memorable musical performances ever recorded. There was enough electricity in this show to power a major city for a century. Right up there with their "rooftop" concert, Jimi Hendrix Experience at Monterey, Buddy Holly on Sullivan, Elvis on Sullivan, Led Zeppelin at Madison Square, Cream at Albert Hall, the list goes on and on. Go on then, add your own personal favorite.

In lots of ways getting old is ess aitch one tee but I can truly say I feel privileged that I was 16 years old in '62 and living near Liverpool AND visiting the (original) Cavern. So many good bands there then, not just the Beatles. ...A rickety wooden staircase going down from street level, no ventilation (except near the bottom of the stairs some cool air blew in from somewhere - probably a sewer!), sweaty as hell, jam packed, almost no lighting (a red bulb over the stage and another over one of the archways, as I remember) - you couldn't tell what the girl you were asking to dance really looked like until you were committed (groan). No alcoholic drink - it didn't have a licence. Health & Safety would close it down nowadays. ...But the source of most of the music, in truth, was American black blues / r & b, (Mississippi / Chicago) brought into the port of Liverpool by merchant seamen. Nobody this side of the Pond gave a damn where it came from, it was great. Happy days.

And didn't the Cavern have official membership cards for the regulars to carry with them ?
