Beatles Decca 1962 Memphis Tennessee

"Memphis Tennessee" is a song written by Chuck Berry and released in 1959, on the b-side of the ‘Back In The USA’ single. It became a part of The Beatles’ live repertoire shortly afterwards, with John Lennon on vocals.
The Beatles recorded five versions of ‘Memphis, Tennessee’ for BBC radio, one of which - from July 1963 - was included on the Live At The BBC collection.
The Beatles first recorded ‘Memphis, Tennessee’ at their audition for Decca Records on 1 January 1962, with Pete Best on drums.
Here I´ve intended to show a possible rendition with the same gear they used to play in 1962.
- Rickenbacker 325 Capri (John)
- Hofner 500/1 61 bass (Paul)
- Gretsch 6128 Duojet (George)
