Track-Listing:
0:01-0:28 Puttin' on the Style (July 1957)
0:29-2:50 Cayene (circe April 1960)
2:51-5:18 One After 909 (circa June-July 1960)
5:19-9:06 Instrumental (circa April 1960)
Track one was recorded at the Fête in Woolton. Tracks 2-4 were home recordings made at the McCartney family home in Liverpool with Stu, and the occasional percussion (reportedly on a guitar case) is alleged
to be Paul's brother, Mike McCartney.

So the 1st part is from THE fete where John and Paul met? Incredible!

The fourth track on the list is a home recording of the instrumental song "Movin' and Goovin' by Duane Eddy. It was released in 1958 and was his first hit record, but it never made the charts in Great Britain and was only a minor hit in the United States. It sounds a bit like Chuck Berry and the early Beatles do a pretty good job on it. It's too bad that this song and the other instrumental on the list were never professionally recorded, as both songs obviously had quite a bit of potential.

Hmmm...interesting music in the background.I can tell it is pretty old,so it's not the best sound quality.But it's ok because that's how history is,difficult in many ways!Haha

I always thought it was interesting that the Harrison solo on this very early version of One After 909 was better and rocked harder than his lame version on the '63 take (an off day maybe). He redeemed himself again though on the
'69 Let It Be version!

Interesting theory, that the blues/rock jam had been recorded in Hamburg. That's not too crazy theory because these tapes were used to promote the band and at least partially these performances have been sourced from Astrid Kirchher's tapes.

this beatle movie i watched kind of gave the impression they weren't all that good when they met... but you can hear the talent right from the start. the chemistry is there from the very first moment.
i had no idea there was this much recorded history. wow!

Well, the fete, yes, but only 20 seconds of a Quarrymen song. EMI bought the original to try and suppress it, but....
