Beatle songs: Please Please Me

 Beatle songs: Please Please Me by ric gustafson


In 1962, the Beatles cut their first record. They learned their trade at the Cavern Club in Liverpool England and in Hamburg Germany. John, Paul and George had been with the group for almost five years. Ringo was a recent addition. They had known Ringo before hand because he was in a group called Rory Storm and the Hurricanes.
They sang songs by Elvis Presley, Chuck Berry, Buddy Holly and Carl Perkins. Studying these artists taught John and Paul the basics of songwriting. The influence of the voice of Roy Orbison gave them the inspiration for their first number one song. Their debut album was recorded on Feb 11 1963. It was released on March 22 1963. Right away, it went to the top of the British charts. 
Their first album was simply called the Please Please Me album.
