This was The Beatles’ ninth known performance at Liverpool’s Cavern Club venue.
The precise number of The Beatles’ Cavern performances is not known, although they played at least 155 lunchtime and 125 evening shows between 9 February 1961 and 3 August 1963.
The Beatles played four consecutive lunchtime shows this week; this was the third. Afterwards they went to the Liverpool Jazz Society at the Iron Door Club on Temple Street for a five-hour show.
