Our Take

Ah, the Beatles. No introduction needed for these lads, as their name alone is enough to send music enthusiasts into a frenzy. But what about their humble beginnings, before all the screaming fans and global stardom? Enter "The Decca Tapes," a collection of recordings that showcases a young, raw Beatles trying to make a name for themselves.

Pressing play on this clear vinyl release, you're immediately transported back to the early 60s, where the Fab Four were still finding their footing. The first thing that strikes you is the sheer energy and enthusiasm that radiates from these tracks. It's like listening to a group of friends jamming in a garage, trying to impress the neighbourhood girls.

Despite the rough quality of the recordings, there's a certain charm to the simplicity of the sound. You can hear the twang of John's guitar, the thump of Ringo's drums, and the harmonious blend of Paul and George's vocals. It's an intimate glimpse into the band's formative years, before they became the global icons we know today.

While it's not the polished, studio-quality sound that we're accustomed to from the Beatles, "The Decca Tapes" offers a rare glimpse into the band's early days. It's a must-have for die-hard fans looking to delve deeper into the band's history, and a fun addition to any vinyl collection. So grab your copy, sit back, and let the music take you on a nostalgic trip down memory lane.
