Songs That Made the Beatles Famous
A CD has been produced on a “Not For Sale” basis exclusively for The Liobians. It is not available to the general public under any commercial circumstances.
I will make it available though to my friends at Hofner Hounds. Just identify yourself as a genuine Liobian or a Hofner Hound, and I will see what I can do.
The 120 or so tracks are recordings of songs that helped to make the Beatles famous in 1961.
This is what the Jewel Case looks like ....
This is not supposed to be an exhaustive compilation of high quality recordings … on the contrary the aim has been to gather together recordings that will help to build the feel and textures behind the Beatles’ selection of these songs for their repertoire, and accordingly the versions here may not be those with which you have become familiar, but ..........
... if
your hands start a-clapping and your fingers start a-popping and
your feet start a-movin' around;
... if you start to swing and sway when the band begins to play, a real cool
and way out sound;
... and you get the "can't help its" and you just can't sit down - you
feel like
you've got to move around “
... then you've got the Liobians' CD in yer drive !
AFTERBURNERS
This CD is produced non mundo solem sed toti Liobi nati - it is available ONLY to bona fides ex pupils and teachers from the Liverpool Institute High School for Boys, and on a NOT FOR SALE basis.
If you are not registered and listed on the Liobians website at The Liobians or if you know anybody who is a Manchester United supporter, then you will not (as in N-O-T) be supplied with a copy of this CD.
Seriously, your bona fides needs to have been established already and checked by webmaster (John Snelson) or honorary archivist and counsellor (Iain Taylor) in the Institute Archives, or you need a personal reference from either Ken Webster or Graham Ross (counsellors) and your name and email address needs to be in these aphabetical listings. They are the rules and there will be no exceptions.
Part of the arrangement is that you in turn undertake not to distribute this CD to anyone else. Flimsy, but your word as a Liobian will be very acceptable.
If you'd like a copy, I am very pleased to advise that some of our colleagues have volunteered to be "afterburners" who are also charged with applying these guidelines. That is, they will supply a copy to you, if you send them an email and you qualify as above .... you may want to think about compensating them at some time, particularly if postage is an issue ... send 'em a postcard, a few old bars are always well received especially if accompanied by a small package of caviar, a rotten Stilton, a token black pudding, a few Foxes Glacier Mints, Gladys Street season ticket or pass for a free tour of Prenton Park ... buy 'em a beer .. or even just ring them and thank them; it means a lot.
