Our Take

Ah, The Beatles - a band that needs no introduction. But here we are, introducing them anyway, because we are quirky and fun like that. The Decca Tapes, a collection of tracks recorded in one fateful audition that famously didn't land the Fab Four a record deal, is a charming little time capsule of the band's early sound.

From the moment the needle hits the red cloudy vinyl, you are transported back to a time when bowl haircuts were in, and Cavern Club was the place to be. The raw energy and unpolished charm of tracks like "Like Dreamers Do" and "Money" give you a glimpse of the band before they were molded into the pop culture icons we know today.

Sure, the sound quality may not be up to par with modern standards, and there are moments where the vocals are a bit shaky, but that's all part of the charm. It's like listening to a group of lads playing in your local pub, dreaming of making it big.

So, if you're a die-hard Beatles fan looking to add a unique piece to your collection, or just someone who enjoys a good blast from the past, The Decca Tapes on red cloudy vinyl is definitely worth a spin. Just be prepared to have "Love Me Do" stuck in your head for days on end. Cheers to the lads from Liverpool - you may not have landed that record deal, but you sure made history.
