I have the LP's of the Beatles at the Star Club, and it is Horst Fascher who sang vocals on two of the songs, Be Bop A Lula and Hallelujah I Love Her So. What an excellent job that he did on vocals.

The Star Club bootleg was recorded New Year's Eve 1962, several months after Ringo joined, so it's definitely him.

thats ringo on drums!!!!

[alwayswithmyfaith]

but this is the beatless??' really????

somebody confirm thissss

[hawk1967able]

@alwayswithmyfaith Yes they are. I have 3 LP´s recorded at the Star Club in 1962. In these two songs is Paul McCartney singing.

George Was Just KILLING on that guitar solo! That's Paul on bass.. but I can't tell if that's Ringo on the drums... the kick is so heavy and 4 to a measure. Pete Best was known for that. I'm guessing this is John, Paul George and Pete with Horst on lead vocals.

[altersachse]

@jensenbell This is a recording made by Ted "King Size" Taylor on the 31´s Dec 1062, it is Ringo Starr on drums.

[jensenbell]

@altersachse Thanks! Ringo sure has "a heavy foot" on this performance. It also sounds like Hørst Fascher was quite a colorful character (who could kill with his fist).

@jensenbell It was Pete Best at that time when they recorded this. I was there, and Ringo was not. :)

M.P.McCartney

@mpm111144 - I thought so, but it's best* to have expert testimony. If this is Mr. McGear, I met you in 1982 in Liverpool in the company of some very beautiful women. This was a "graduation trip" from my parents before I went to college in my home state of California, and woah, was I impressed. There was coffee. There was rain. You were so kind and generous with your stories and observations. I came home feeling I knew something of the world. I hope you and your family are well & thriving.

Guest lead vocal by Horst Fascher, Star-Club manager

[Joshua12345]

@raybrandes Wiki has it it is Fred Fascher, Horst's brother, that seems to fit as he was away at the time auditioning for the lead role in a Man call Horst.

[macrockettere]

Who is singing ?

[cheapseats100]

Great tracks! Hallelujah i love her so is done by Horst Fascher who was the beatles bodyguard in hamburg

the lead vocal on be bop a lula is his brother fred fascher

[beachbeatleboys]

the first word sung and I was like, "this ain't the beatles, without a doubt.

[gooshala]

Well you kids haven't read enough books Because us older Beatlemaniacs know the singer is the German waiter at the Star Club who doubled as their bodyguard and got them the pills that helped them play 12 hour gigs. His name escapes me but it's in a lot of the books. He loved rock'nroll so they let him get up and sing a few numbers. I wish I coulda been there!

[danny3flip]

@gooshala

great story

[Scorpio77772]

@gooshala HORST FASCHER was his name

[tontomcepstein]
