Album Notes and Credits

Notes & Personnel Info
IN THE BEGINNING features The Beatles first recordings for Polydor Records Germany as backup band for English singer Tony Sheridan. The album also features 4 tracks by Sheridan backed up by The Beat Brothers.
The Beatles: John Lennon, George Harrison (vocals, guitar); Paul McCartney (vocals, bass); Pete Best (drums).
Additional personnel: Tony Sheridan (vocals); The Beat Brothers.
Producer: Bert Kaempfert.
Compilation producer: Bill Levenson.
Recorded in Hamburg, Germany in June 1961 & May 1962.
Includes liner notes by Tony Sheridan, George Harrison, and Bill Harry.
All tracks are digitally remastered.
These are the Beatles' earliest official recordings; obviously, they're historically important, but they're also more listenable than you might think. "Ain't She Sweet" and its B-side "Cry For a Shadow" (a terrific Ventures-like instrumental that's the only known Harrison-Lennon collaboration) was, of course, the record that prompted future manager Brian Epstein to check out the band at a Liverpool club, thus altering the course of civilization in profoundly unfathomable ways.
The rest of the album features the Beatles backing fellow Liverpudlian Tony Sheridan (a singer whose enthusiasm makes up for a certain lack of vocal style), plus a few Sheridan performances with other musicians. It's all entertaining in a period sort of way, and if you want to know what rock sounded like between the time Elvis entered the army and the ascendance of the Fab Four, you could do a lot worse.
