  • my taco fell now im twisting and shouting trying to reach it

  • i absolutely love it when George and Paul go "ohhhh"!

  • If I put my name on a Beatles' video will I be as famous as Ed (Pin Head) Zerati......

  • George and Paul kinda look like spock

  • the three geniuses

  • I'm glad I know who is responsible for this nice piece of work. Good ole Ed Zerati. Thanks for your contribution. Folks, here is the man who brought the Beatles to the world. ED ZERATI!

  • George was only 19 in here :')

  • great find - nice cover of classic by The Isley Brothers - includes Pete Best, original drummer, canned for being too popular, got more fan mail than the other blokes, but way better drummer than Ringo, who Paul had to cover for in the studio from time to time - have to admit, still like the Isley's version better - also found Top Notes - songwriters: Bert Russell, Phil Medley - nobody cares about composers

  • @ALDancers Delusional? George and Paul said in interviews that they needed a good drummer and Pete Best did not cut it, they all asked Brian to fire him, and it was George I believe who asked Ringo to be a drummer for them and they all liked him and said he filled the hole and made the 4 the Beatles. Did they all lie over and over? Doubt it.

  • ed zerati is going bald...his hair is thinning out..

    i see his hairline is receding...

    this makes me happy

    ed zerati looks like he's dominican or cuban...a real little cockaroach

    ed zerati is a friggin limp noodle

    R.I.P. ed zerati's hairline

  • they dont seem to have as much fun with this song. but they sound like they are having fun. i love swingin my hips to this song...

  • JOHN BUSTED" HIS VOCAL CHORDS FROM SINGING THIS SO MUCH LIVE~~~!!!~LOVE U $EVER!!!

  • This is 1963, not 1962.

  • Uhuuu I love BraZIL

  • thank u trevgk!

  • Comment removed

  • The Ed Zerati legend is annoying me more than it should. I'm constantly looking at it instead than at THE BEATLES.

  • Bunch of ignorant youtubers goes to show you. Given the chance to watch a video from the beatles & appreciate it instead, they focus on the name on the screen of the guy who uploaded it. I loved the video btw

  • The Beatles released the song on their first UK album, Please Please Me, the recording of which on 11 February 1963. This brazilian is ignorant.

  • this ed zerati character wasn't even born when this video was made, typical brazilian!!

  • oh my god its an absolute outrage he has his name on it! fuck off guys lol seriously

  • This is actually early 1963. Only 1962 sound footage is "Some Other Guy" at The Cavern.

  • @Nimulak The footage of the band miming to Twist & Shout is from December 1963 on Thank Your Lucky Stars T.V. show

  • esa musica no muere

  • Haha poor John and a sore throat when they recorded this song

  • I remember hearing,OMG their hair is so long,they look like girls! lol

  • That voice! That fucking voice!! They didn't even write this one and yet you'll never hear another version that comes close to the magnatude of this! Did i mention Lennon's voice? Ok. Merry christmas then.

  • 5 ppl can't twist and shout!!! but 207 can!!!

  • I was prolly 10 years old when I heard this songs, all my life thats all i love the Beatles, do I miss those times! of course! ;]]

  • ed u should be ashamed/lame=o

  • They made some realy good stuff before all they did was get high and do lsd. After that they sucked

  • Wow! We are indebted to the late Ed Zerati (surely he must be dead by now?). Hope he got the cred he deserves when The Beatles Anthology aired on international TV!

  • When I was in the U.S. Navy, I saw The Beatles in Hamburg, Germany, and then again in 1963 in Liverpool. This vid was indeed 1963. And...my last name is McCartney. M. P. McCartney. I am now 66, play guitar, left handed, but...can't sing a lick. :D)

  • @mpm111144 What was the Hamburg concert like?? Were kids going wild all the time? Was Beatlemania already in full swing with the German kids?

  • @coyotesong Yes...the kids went wild! Beatlemania was not in full swing, but most of the German kids back then knew who they were. I saw them at the The Star Club, and the place was packed! They had improved a 1000 percent from their beginnings. A year later, when I saw them again in '63 in Liverpool, they were just months away from becoming a household name in the U.S. I was at sea when they played live on the Ed Sullivan show in New York City February 1964 else I would have been there. :)

  • i was 8 at this time what a treat

  • I'm guessing first TV appearance on ATV (in north of England), right? CLearly miming, but doing a pretty good job of it.

  • The Beatles were even good with transistor tube and solid state technology in the early 60's. Dan O'Niallain, Grafton, Ma.

  • This video was recorded August 14, 1963

    Location: Studio 4, Granada TV Centre, Manchester, England

    Broadcast on August 14, 1963, 6:30-7:00PM by Granada TV on the program "Scene at 6:30"

    Information source: Way Beyond Compare: The Beatles' Recorded Legacy, Volume 1, 1957-1965, by John C. Winn

  • This CANNOT be a video/film of The Beatles from 1962. Ringo is playing his trademark Black Oyster Pearl Ludwig drumkit with The Beatles drumhead logo, which as any Beatles Hair Splitting Society member knows, he did not buy until 1963 from Drum City in London. QED! You right whack!

  • i thinks is 1963 not 62

  • By ed zerati? did you have anything to do with the making of this classic video? no, thought not, you just posted it on you tube. well done. what do you want, a medal. maybe next time you can make your name a bit bigger, maybe have it in the middle of the screen

  • @DeJarreVu

    Thank you narrow-minded.

    Clearly not realize the video. Only edited!

  • @edinho040383 you didnt edit it

  • @edinho040383 and yet he's the one everyone gave thumbs up and you're the one everybody's laughing about.

  • @DeJarreVu - Ah, nice song. Don't be to hard on the poster. Brazilans can't help help how they are. They have always been such pirates of art and intellectual property.

  • @MAGNETGRUNT (ps- "to" in this case is spelled too.) Good humor though, it really is ridiculous that this guy put his name up there so prominently. He probably wasn't even born when this was filmed!

  • @DeJarreVu well said, I guess he thinks he was there filming it, hahaha

  • This is definitley not 1962. It's a year or two later.

  • silly brazilian needs to get his info and english right

  • @furie1 he needs to stop playing the complete idiot

  • Not '62 ........

  • i like to think that this is actually from 1972... i like to stir the pot you see :))

  • @Rawego Of course you know it's not 1972, probably 1963, maybe 1964 latest.

  • @TheAnn2shoes the obvious reply to that is who gives a fck. do you get it now? :))

  • @Rawego Facts are facts, like it or not. And why the need to swear? Can't you make a point without using that language?

  • @TheAnn2shoes fck no! :))

  • Buenisimo indeed! I think it's so great that these four "scousers" have such a unifying influence, from Spanish speaking countries to the former Soviet Union to little isolated towns in Appalachia like where I grew up. Enormous talent and energy and they didn't even have to take their shirts off and wear head bands!

  • no se lo que haga este brazuka posible plagiador pero el video esta buenisimo!

  • this is 1963! not 62

  • " este es el mejor conjunto musical que jamas haya existido" no han si superado hasta esta fecha. "THE BEATLES".  for ever.

  • "it is thus necessary to have patience 8 seconds before the first images" lolz Christ where are you from, Ethiopia?

  • @GastroGreen You don't appreciate good English when you read it.

  • I can understand the frustration of the detailed inaccuracy, but I've also read so many extremely incorrect comments about the year, about John playing lead on Nowhere Man, and just so many ridiculous remarks from people who weren't born then, or people who just don't think about what they say. I've never left a negative comment so I will just say thanks for posting this. It defines rock and roll!

  • john looks so young in comparison to '64+ stuff

  • No offense but all this arguing reminds me of listening to my 4 year niece and 5 year old nephew fighting. Can't we compromise and just say it was from the early 60's. I'm all for nailing down the facts of an old Beatles performance but enough is enough. By the way, great performance by the boys. Thanks for posting.

  • This is NOT 1962 !

    It`s 1963.

    I 1962 they had`nt recorded "Twist and shout" yet.

    Check these things before you put`em on.

  • @Chimbo65 Yes; I thought that '62 was the wrong year when I read it above.

    Thanks for the confirmation.

  • @denidowi

    It`s a pleasure.

    all the best

    Chimbo

  • I Have A Band called The Weavles and were playing this song for our Talent show...... Its Gonna be Epic... I think

  • This is from their appearance on the TV show "Scene at 6:30" on August 14, 1963. Twist and Shout would not be recorded until February 11, 1963. It was included on the album Please Please Me, which was released in the UK on March 22, 1963.

  • Please Please Me (the single) was recorded in November 1962 - the album was recorded in March 1963. This video was probably from late 1963.

  • 64 defo la

  • This is the 1968 rehearsal before the premiere of Yellowed Submarine. Having taken a month off after their first European tour, John suggested they get together and come up with fresh material to play at the premiere. He and Rings came up with the idea of Twist and Shout from all the shouting they did as young boys growing up in the Merseyland neighborhood. This was Rings most prolific writing period.

  • are you on drugs?

  • are you a fucking retard. twist and shout was writen by medley and russel and this is before 65 cos look at their hair is started short and ended long dickface

  • @wjbn5 please refrain from refering to people that you have a disagreement with as retard - asshole or putz or jerkoff is far more accurate - thank you -Beatles Rock

  • are you kidding??? late 64 or 65???

  • anyone that suggests this is late 64 or early 65 has never seen pictures of the beatles. it's 1963, and their guitars give it away. john lennon is playing his first rickenbacker 325, with the gold pickguard and the bigsby.

  • How can you put your name on a piece of video from a 1960's television show?

  • @edvadosvba

    no shit, lol....

  • @edvadosvba

    He's not taking credit for the footage. He's taking credit for getting the year wrong and mistakenly driving many people to this video who otherwise would not have clicked on it. And I think Ed is from Africa, as his writing style sounds like those advance-fee fraud emails I get from Nigeria.

  • John Lennon @ stage left,...very unusual

  • ca setais en fin 62 ou millieu 63 ..... leur succes a du prendre quelque temp avan de devenir connu ... en 1964 ces quand ils etais devenu mondialement connu ..... ils etais a ce moment la devenu ... ** le ** groupe de l'heure .....

  • Yeah, this must be in 1963. They have the whole "With The Beatles" look. And, of course, IchibanStar13, you're "guitarly" right.

  • thats y mccartney snorted his father's ashes right? or was that keith richards...hmmmmm

  • This linked up well, not a live cut though ..it's from their first album.

  • Idiot is the whore of her mother !

  • ringo always looked like he's having a good time

  • The song wasnt even recorded til 63!

  • yeah really that's what I was thinking =)

  • 1963

  • To rosamia2--John did lead in 'You Can't Do That' with the Rick--at least I think he did--in the clip George was playing the 12-string. (The clip from the Movie is a good one...)

  • Thanks. At the time I had no idea John was playing the lead. It has always been one of my fave lead breaks. Never knew John was such a good lead guitar.

  • Thanks. John also did the solo on the German Concert 1966 for 'Nowhere Man'--you can see him cranking up his volume just before the solo starts..George did the solo on the Japan Concert clip and others. Not sure why they did that, but it is nice.

  • On the record it's John and George double tracked on stratocasters so they both obviously knew how to play the solo. Maybe they took turns or were both playing it live too?

  • actually they both played it at the same time. john played it on a 1958 Rickenbacker 325, and george played it on a 1957(?) Gretsch Duo Jet. need i remind you that this was in 1963 and they didnt get stratocasters untitil 1965.

  • never mind i thought you were talking about this song lol

  • John and George didn't use stratocasters until Nowhere Man in 1965.

  • 'Ticket To Ride' John used a Strat for the heavy twangy rythmn sound. There's photo's of them with their new strat guitars from the Help sessions.

  • John played a strat on Ticket to Ride for the twangy rythmn. There's photo's of them during the help sessions with them.

  • @macmerc2 George even played his new strat on 'You're Gonna Lose that Girl' - Help sessions were the first use of strat's on a Beatles recording. Well documented.

  • john and george do the solo at the same time (at least on the record, i dont know about live)

  • A great example of how music videos should be edited. Today they cut too often which drives the viewer bonkers.

  • This is from 1963, not 1962. Ringo didn't replace Pete Best until August 1962 at which time the Beatles still didn't have a record contract. The Beatles recorded their first studio take of "Twist and Shout" in February 1963.

  • 1963

  • I have always loved Lennon's Rick and wondered how well it would have done in use as a lead guitar.

  • Rics are a little challenging to play lead on for some reason. They've always been more of a rhythm player's guitar. But I've taken my 620 out as my only guitar for a gig, and played lead, but honestly, whenever it came time for a lead, I wished I had my Strat instead.

  • George<3

  • Not 62. 63

  • john lennon is legend....check out my profile..every1 for rare interviews!

  • Isso já é em 63 meu querido, só muda lá para não ensinar os mais novos as datas erradas.

  • cmon cmon cmon baby(8)!jajajajxD buena la cancion

  • People today look at videos from the 60s thinking it is lipsync and not recordings. Back then the sound crew hung mikes from the ceiling out of view of the camera.

  • If this was recorded and performed live without overdubs, what are the guitars plugged into? Hmmmmm?????? Notice there are no patch cords leading out of their guitars, and wireless transmitters weren't invented untill the late 1970's.

  • Yep, this is most DEFINITELY 1963 - On promo from the Please Please Me album, which was released in '63...... in '62 the guys had yet to sign with EMI, and they didn't record Twist and Shout untill they recorded the Please Please Me album.

  • Uh, I don't think this is 1962. John's Ric is already refinished in black.

  • wooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooooooooooooooooooooo you know you twist soooo fine!!!!!!

  • where are the microphones?

  • HA, I never noticed. seems kinda like a big oversight huh?

  • this is a lipsync with video overlay. may be one of the very first music videos; but still great!!

  • laretrac, who commented earlier was correct. the date was 14 august 1963.

  • para bailar la bamba....

  • The Beatles were having fun singing this song. Miss the fun songs!

  • Grossartig! Das waren Zeiten!

  • who cares about the date it was a great song whatsoever

  • the Russians never had a chance

    ..weve them Beatles

  • Hmm, friss zamatos husik! xD:D I love them! <3 :*

  • this aint 1962???

  • This is not 1962.

    It is 1963 !!

  • Thankyou Isley Brothers

  • That wasn't 1962. Look at 1:25, you can clearly see the drop-T logo. That logo didn't appear until 1963.. NINTEEN..SIXTY..THREE.

  • wow they were so young

  • To answer the question of when this was filmed, identify the drummer. The Beatles were on Ed Sullivan in February of 1963 and Ringo was the drummer.

  • woa! you are sooo wrong about the beatles on the Ed sullivan show that was in 1964!!!!!

  • No,you are wrong.

    It was February 9 1964 !!

  • hot*

  • i seriously think that they were ot in 1962. xD

  • No, this isn't 1962. If you want to check out how The Beatles sounded just before the breakthrough search for Beatles Sweden Drop In.

  • this is not 1962

  • wrong.

    this is from 1963. they are lipsynchign to the studio recording which was not done until february or '63, ruling out 1962

  • HOW could John Lennon sing so espectaculary great!. I think he was the best singer in the world.

  • well, Paul is great too!

  • Being an old git this video brings back many great memories of seing them live so may times during those amazing times.

  • that is not 62

    thats a BBC show from 64

  • This aint 62.

  • WOW!

    It started with Elvis but the Beatles ended it!

  • good cover

  • How nice boys!!!! So cool!! Love them for ever!!!

    =)

    They just so young and sweet!!!

  • LOL, wish I could see you the day you get old...Punk..LOL

  • 1962?????

    This film was made in the fall of 63 and for you own bit of historical info, Ringo didn't officially join them until the fall of 62 and actually right before they recorded Love Me Do on September 11, 1962.

  • yeah that's what I thought....

  • I was gonna say! I didn't think they'd even written Twist & Shout yet. I mean John does 22 but I suppose he would've been.

    God Julian was born in 1962! John was only 22! Look at John, he looks real young to be a dad! But I love that John Lennon!

  • wtf? Twist and Shout was written by Medley & Russell and was released by the Isley Bros in 1962 (UK Stateside SS112) as a follow up to their 1959 hit Shout (UK RCA 1149)

    a friend of mine really admired the 'originality' of the Beatles, so i went thru my record collection and made up a tape of about 30 tracks by the original artists of songs that the Beatles played in their early days (including all 12 cover tracks on their first 2 albums + numbers they performed on Saturday Club etc)

  • The Beatles' early music was mostly covers. The double CD "Star Club Tapes" only seems to have one song written by The Beatles, as far as I can tell. The BBC recordings double CD was again mostly covers. They're also listed as covering some of Jackie Lee's songs (such as White Horses) but I can't find any recordings of those. They probably did some other original stuff early on - the Quarrymen can't have played only covers - but they only hit their pace with Hard Day's Night.

  • The Quarrymen did play mostly covers, in those days it was rare for an artist to write his (or her) own songs anyway.

    They did start their writing together, but rarely performed the songs. Of course there are exeptions, "In spite of all the danger" being one of them.

  • "I want to hold tour hand" in german is one popping groove baby!

  • 1963

  • How cute and enthusiastic are they! ♥♥♥♥

  • ww2 ours communication was better than Germany now it's 1960 and we will test market this generation of young boys with gitars and attitude right thru Germany . of course the germans hate the beatles

  • Germany was the Beatles together. the boys played all night in slum bars just to get it tight na the beatles started in Germany, believe that Seriously in like 1960 15 years after ww2 the Germans are impressed by a bunch of punks from England toting gitars ?

  • This is 1963

  • It's rather 1963 than 1962, you can see it from their hair.

  • Quick add: The song, mimed here, was recorded in the famous Feb. 11, 1963 session at EMI -- where the boys recorded their debut album, "Please Please Me," in one day, 585 minutes to be precise. The recording of "Twist And Shout" concluded the session.

  • The exact date is Aug. 14, 1963. The Beatles were appearing on a show called "Scene At 6:30." This was recorded at the Granada TV Centre in Manchester.

  • it's 1963 fool

  • Paul's only 20 here and George is 19 here. By the way, Lennon is waaaaaaaaaaay better than Cobain.

  • Nice lip-sync - please retitle as Beatles in "1963"

  • lennon kick ass voice!!!

    better than Cobain

  • QUAL O NOME DESSA MUSICA?

  • Leia do lado!!!

    TWIST AND SHOUT!

  • They are just miming the Please Please Me album track.

  • How awesome vid !!  I have never seen such a rare video . Thanks .

  • ed zarati = the 43rd beatle..

  • Yes this is from 63 I'm sure. The earliest on record I know of is "Some Other Guy" which might be '62 at the Cavern Club after they did Hamburg for the second or third time. Yayyy, I'm a Beatle-geek, LOL
