GA Russell Posted February 19, 2013 Report Share Posted February 19, 2013 The Beatles' first recordings were with Tony Sheridan. Their recording of Ain't She Sweet got plenty of airtime in 1964. http://www.latimes.com/news/obituaries/la-me-tony-sheridan-20130219,0,888898.story Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Beat Steve Posted February 19, 2013 Report Share Posted February 19, 2013 A seminal figure and cult personality among German 60s music fans, even beyond Beatlemaniacs. Though the packaging of his Hamburg recordings for reissue at times led buyers to believe that certain recordings were with Beatles backing when in fact they weren't (No, not My Bonne and Ain't She Sweet- this one with Lenn on on vocal - , that WAS the Beatles). The LA Times obit, incidentally, is also wrong about the "Beat Brothers" moniker, that WASN'T the Beatles, only Tony Sheridan's recordings with that backing group are often lumped in with the Beatles recordings in reissues (My point ...)
