Their first recording as The Beatles was in 1961, as Tony Sheridan's backing band for Germany's Polydor Records. Prior to that, they had made some home tapes with a borrowed recorder, and done one session at a home studio in Liverpool, where they covered Buddy Holly's "That'll Be The Day". (Some of these later appeared on The Beatles Anthology.)

Their first album was recorded in 12 hours. Later albums took months. They had the luxury of time when they were the biggest artists in the world. Who was going to rush them?

Most of the Beatles music was recorded between 1962-1970, as a group. Various best of type albums, and unreleased track cds have been issued.

What Beatles album did George Martin produce?

George Martin produced every Beatles album. With the Let It Be album, Martin supervised the original recording sessions, but the final mixing and editing was turned over to Phil Spector. George Martin had absolutely nothing to do with "Free as a Bird" and "Real Love", which were produced by Jeff Lynne. It must be understood that George Martin was not present during every recording session. He often delegated the work to studio engineers and returned to follow-up on what had been accomplished in his absence. This was especially true during the recording of the White Album when there were as many as three different studios being used at the same time by individual Beatles working on "their" tracks. Even as early as the Beatles' first album, Please Please Me, George Martin was not in the studio during the Beatles' "one take" recording of "Twist and Shout." The engineer had to find him and bring him back, saying, "Listen to this!"

Who is sgt peppers lonely heart club band?

Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band is an album released in 1967 by The Beatles. The "band" is not a real band but rather characters that each member of The Beatles would take on. This allowed them to experiment greatly with their music and try new things that they have never done before. The album was a huge success and is consistently named the greatest rock album of all time.


Why was Paul McCartney a jerk?

Paul McCartney was not a jerk, and although I agree he can be bossy, he had to be. Everyone perceives him as a jerk, when someone had to take charge of the band, and that was Paul. Paul isn't my favorite Beatle but he really is a great guy and in my opinion, knowing a lot about The Beatles, they wouldn't have lasted as long as they did without him. :) After all, many things The Beatles did, including the Sgt. Pepper album, was Paul McCartney's idea. You can see some of Paul's character through the Beatles' movies.

For some reason, Liberace, who was a concert and tv performing artist, did not record singles - or did so very sparingly. He did record albums such as the inevitable Yule album with the cloyenne ( Twas the Night before Christmas).
