Star Club photos & interesting stuff

[Gringo557]

I absolutely love the Hamburg period and collected all of the best photographs I could find over the years. Spent a bit of money on some $300 books too. I also put a lot of work into photoshopping some of the images to improve the presentation. I posted the entire StarClub tape on YT using my photograph collection using Lord Reith's MAGNETOPHON mix (thank you, Lord!). So, in a rather shameless act of self promotion check out some of my slideshows. They're really made for large screen TV viewing with a good sound system. And as John said, "Play It Loud!" Enjoy!

A few more pix . . . and it sure must have been fascinating to spend time with Kingsize Taylor talking with him about the Hamburg days.

17 days after Star Club

Setlist from Jan 17, 1963, only 16 days AFTER came back to Hamburg look at the setlist

"Memorabilia specialists Tracks has an interesting item for sale, one which gives us a glimpse of what a Beatles concert, two and a half weeks after they had been recorded playing at the Star Club in Hamburg would have been like. A fan has jotted down the titles of the songs the band played at a gig at the Majestic in Birkenhead. The lead singer is also identified, but unfortunately not on the songs the fan was not familiar with. It seems to me that the set list looks like it’s a young girl’s handwriting. It also looks too neat to have been jotted down at the gig, she probably scribbled down just some abbreviations and later wrote it down properly, probably at home.

The songs are:

Unknown (I Saw Her Standing There – Paul?)
Shimmy Like Kate – John
Whole Lotta Shakin’ Goin’ On – George
P.S. I Love You – Paul
H (unknown) (Honey Don’t – John?)
Chains – George
A Taste of Honey – Paul
Please Please Me – no lead vocalist indicated, but it’s John’s song
Three Cool Cats – George
Unknown (Till There Was You – Paul?)
Anna (Go to Him) – John
Hey, Good Lookin’ – George
Hippy Hippy Shake – Paul
Talking ’bout You – John
Devil in Her Heart – George
Some Other Guy – John
Ask Me Why – John
Roll Over Beethoven – George
Love Me Do – no lead vocalist indicated, but it’s John’s song.

This was their second performance that day, as they had also played at the Cavern Club in Liverpool earlier in the day. The “Please Please Me”/”Ask Me Why” single was released just the week before the gig.

It’s good to have confirmation that George was the lead singer on “Whole Lotta Shakin’ Goin’ On” as well as “Hey, Good Lookin'”, George singing around a third of the songs still. The three main singers seem to be alternating at the vocal microphone,

The Paul-John-George pattern repeats throughout, except for “Some Other Guy”, which John and Paul used to sing in unison anyway. Any guess what the three missing songs might have been? Too early for Ringo to have a “Ringo Starr Time” perhaps? The set list is for sale at £150.00 from Tracks."""
