This was The Beatles’ 22nd lunchtime performance at Liverpool’s Cavern Club, the cellar venue on Mathew Street which would soon be world famous.
Their lunchtime shows typically lasted from 12-2pm. This was their 28th appearance overall.
The precise number of their Cavern performances is not known, although The Beatles played at least 155 lunchtime and 125 evening shows between 9 February 1961 and 3 August 1963.
