Ohhhhhhh that’s what you meant! That’s a good question. I’ll check Joe’s article.

Edit: it would appear that footage of the Beatles performing Some Other Guy is the only surviving footage of the Beatles at the Cavern.

The following people thank 50yearslate for this post:

kurwabobrze, Richard, Tangerine

Love one another.

@kurwabobrze would you mind listing all the hints in each post and making a list of wrong answers, just to make things easier?

Could it be The Ballad Of John And Yoko ?

Love one another.

I’m sorry, but how is this song significant?  I’ve never even heard of it. 

You’ve never heard of Some Other Guy?  Have you seen Anthology – particularly the sections about the Beatles’ Cavern Club performances?

As Fiddy commented, footage of the Beatles performing Some Other Guy is the only known surviving film of the group at the Cavern Club.  This was also just a few days after Ringo Starr became a member of the Beatles, so it is the first-ever recording of the finalised Beatles’ line-up with Ringo in place of Pete Best.

Some Other Guy was a key part of the Beatles’ early repertoire, and they recorded the song three times for BBC radio shows.

“It is a great song … It really got us started because that’s one of the earliest bits of film of the Beatles. It was the song we sang when Granada Television came to the Cavern.” – Paul McCartney

“Some Other Guy was a great song.” – George Harrison

“I’d like to make a record like Some Other Guy. I haven’t done one that satisfies me as much as that satisfies me.” – John Lennon

The following people thank Richard for this post:

And in the end

The love you take is equal to the love you make
