About the Song/performance:
The Beatles played a lunchtime and evening show at The Cavern Club. Granada TV filmed the lunchtime session with the group playing ‘Some Other Guy’ and ‘Kansas City/Hey-Hey-Hey-Hey’ for their Know The North Show, but the film was never broadcast at the time. The quality of the footage was judged to be too low for broadcast, and it was shelved until The Beatles became famous.
‘Some Other Guy’ was first shown on 6 November 1963 on Granada’s Scene At 6.30, and has been repeated many times since. This was The Beatles 126th lunchtime performance at The Cavern and was also the first time that television cameras filmed them performing.
Gear used during the performance:
Paul used his 1961 Hofner 500/1 Bass (dunno what amp was used
John used his Rickenbacker 325c58 plugged into his blonde VOX AC15
George used his Gretsch Duo Jet plugged into his Gibson amplifier? I think he used a Gibson amplifier during the cavern club times
