Beatles – On Air - Live At The BBC Volume 2 2CD

The Beatles – On Air - Live At The BBC Volume 2

Following the sensational success of the Beatles anthology Live at the BBC almost twenty years ago, On Air - Live at the BBC Volume 2 is the long-awaited follow-up: 40 music recordings of their BBC sessions from 1962 - 1965 are released here on double CD with a 48-page booklet including an essay on the BBC sessions + liner notes by producer Kevin Howlett.

37 of these live performances are previously unreleased performances by the Fab Four. In addition, there are 23 equally unreleased recordings of humorous conversations between the band members and the radio presenters in the studio. Needless to say, there is no overlap with the previous Live at the BBC (Vol. 1). In addition to dozens of unreleased recordings of Beatles hits and classics, On Air contains numerous rarities, in particular 10 songs that John, Paul, George and Ringo never recorded in the studio in the 1960s. Two interpretations and one song even celebrate their official premiere on this collection: the live performance of Chuck Berry's "I'm Talking About You", a great cover of the classic "Beautiful Dreamer" and "Happy Birthday, Dear Saturday Club", a congratulatory song by the Beatles to the most important pop program on British radio in the 1960s.
