Although
the guitars are often electric, LIVE AT THE BBC is, essentially, the
Beatles Unplugged--yanked out of the recording studio, gathered around a
few microphones and encouraged to show off their raw craft, naked
voices and rock'n'roll roots. MTV didn't exist in the early '60s, but
the BBC did, and between March 1962 and June 1965 (a period that spans
their first four albums and takes them from the simplicity of "Love Me
Do" to the complexities of "Ticket To Ride") the Beatles performed 52
times on England's national radio network. Although they had honed their
craft in British and German rock clubs, the Beatles were mostly known
as a studio band, and the radio shows served as a sort of
behind-the-curtains glimpse of the studio wizards.
Most
of these performances are covers of early rock, pop and country songs,
and the scope of them is wider and deeper than the covers the Beatles
put on their albums. There are obvious influences--Chuck Berry, Elvis
and Little Richard rockers, and traditional pop ballads--along with
lesser-known pop footholds that hint at how/where the Beatles bridged
the gap between rock's teen-age years and its adulthood. They covered
soul singer Arthur Alexander only once on their original records
("Anna"), but twice here, and the combination of R&B drive and
complex pop changes that fuels both "Soldier Of Love" and "A Shot Of
Rhythm And Blues" gives away one of the primary sources of Beatles
style. John Lennon's vocal on "I Just Don't Understand," an Ann-Margret
pop song, foreshadows the downbeat folk-rock with which the Beatles made
their mark in the mid-'60s.
A
baker's dozen of Lennon/McCartney originals are spread through the set,
including one, a jangly folk-rocker titled "I'll Be On My Way," that
they never recorded. The John-Paul-George harmonies are in full bloom,
as is the Beatlesque sense of humor. There's one terribly obvious
overdub, but the rest of LIVE AT THE BBC sounds like rock'n'roll's
greatest living-room sessions.
