Pawel:
you should visit this [url=http://beatlesource.com/savage/1962/62.02.20%20Floral%20Hall/62..02.20floralhall.html ]SITE[/url] and hear all those early Beatles' sounds, and watch the Beatles' earliest film, made in Floral Hall, 20 Feb 1962, in colour! Floral Hall
Great video!!! They sing two songs, one with George on lead vocals, and one with Paul. I'm curious if anyone can figure out what they are singing.
I've noticed it too I think it wouldn't be a bad idea to ask the people in the Yesterday Forum? Someone might know the answer

Have a nice weekend everybody.

It's difficult to say because they don't even know where and when exactly this clip was filmed:
This film clip is the earliest surviving movie film (Super 8mm) of The Beatles that has become available (a three minute film from The Top Ten Club in Hamburg in Spring 1961 is reported to exist). This clip also offers the first color photos (stills from individual frames of the film) when the band was using the name "The Beatles". The film was discovered in 1973 by the son of the photographer (is that what it would be called?). It was auctioned at Sotheby's in 1996. The complete film is reported to also contain non-Beatles images shot in various clubs. It shows people drinking, playing snooker and watching the band. The Beatles are seen in two separate segments which appear to represent two different songs being performed. In the first segment, George is seen singing. In the second segment, Paul is singing. John is not seen at a microphone. Pete is obscurred in the shadows and can't be seen at all. The total amount of time for the two Beatles' segments is said to be 30 seconds. At the time of the Sotheby's auction, excerpts of the film were shown on ITN News in the UK and Extra in the US. In 2004 most, if not all, of the clip was featured in the Pete Best documentary DVD, Best Of The Beatles. The clip presented here would seem to be the entire clip because it fits the reported 30 second length and it features two different songs. I'm not sure of the source for this clip.

But I would imagine they wouldn't have a totally different setlist for gigs that were maybe a week apart? Even if the concert was the 1Oth, the 14th or the 20th they may have sung the same songs, no? If we had a possible list of songs it would be easier to try and see which ones they were singing?

Wow! The video of the Valentine's Day concert is really neat! Too bad there is no sound, would be interesting to know what song they were singing. It looked like a great time! Everyone's been wondering where I've been. Where's Podgie?! Well, I've been around...busy with work and here at the zoo. With the "Where's Podgie" theme...made me think of "Where's Paul?". Okay, I took this idea from someone else, but added to it a bit. This is a neat game. Can you find Paul? Where's Paul?...click here game Make sure you expand the picture so you can see it full size! Ya found Paul pretty fast?...hmmm...how about the rest of the band?...okay, now Heather...and John Hammel (he's never far from Paul ). Podgie (okay...now Where's Waldo?) Monkey
EXCELLENT!

Growing up on Abbey Road Sunday, February 26, 2006 BY STEVE HEDGPETH Star-Ledger Staff "We weren't allowed up there where the grownups lived." That's Paul McCartney in "Paul McCartney: Chaos and Creation at Abbey Road," a "Great Performances" installment premiering Monday at 10 p.m. on Channel 13. At the beginning of the special, McCartney speaks those words while pointing to an elevated sound-engineering room in Studio 2 at Abbey Road Studios in London. Though the Beatles would make Abbey Road famous, they deferred to their elders in the early days of their recording career. Even now, "it terrifies me, this studio," says McCartney. You wouldn't know it the way he takes over on the special, soloing on a dozen songs, in part or in whole, playing a variety of instruments and telling anecdotes with a man-of-the-world ease and charm in front of a small crowd of intimates and invitees, including his wife, Heather Mills McCartney. At 63, McCartney is decidedly a grownup. He's also, well, Sir Paul, and he can go where he likes and do what he pleases with authority. He decided to do "Chaos and Creation at Abbey Road" as an outgrowth of his most recent album, the Grammy-nominated "Chaos and Creation in the Backyard." He chose Abbey Road, even though the songs on "Backyard" weren't recorded there. But the special allows him to deliver a magical mystery tour and history lesson on both the Beatles and his subsequent solo career. With the passing of John Lennon and George Harrison and with Ringo less visible, McCartney has become the group's tribal storyteller, always free with a bit of Beatles lore. Two of the songs he performs -- "In Spite of All the Danger" and "Twenty Flight Rock" -- actually predate the Beatles proper. The former is a song written by McCartney and Harrison when the group was still known as the Quarry Men. This is not only pre-Ringo, but pre-Pete Best, the famously jettisoned drummer. According to McCartney, he, John, George, drummer Colin Hanton and pianist Duff Lewis made a recording of "In Spite of All the Danger" on the cheap at a small Liverpool studio in the late '50s. The resultant record resurfaced in the early '80s and was eventually heard on the soundtrack of "The Beatles Anthology" in 1996. "Twenty Flight Rock," an old Eddie Cochran rocker, was the first song that McCartney ever played for John Lennon, on the day in 1957 when the two met. "Apparently," says McCartney, "that got me in the Beatles." The balance of the special is a show of virtuosity. Among the five songs he performs from "Chaos and Creation in the Backyard" is "Jenny Wren," reminiscent of "Blackbird" from the White Album. There's a reason for this. As teens, McCartney and Harrison would duet a piece by Bach on their guitars. As McCartney explains, the Bach piece influenced "Blackbird," which in turn influenced "Jenny Wren." To show the connective thread, he plays all three songs. At one point, he brings out a standup acoustic bass that the late Bill Black, Elvis' original bass player, had used on "Heartbreak Hotel." McCartney then performs an impressive version of the song, thumping the familiar bass line and singing with Elvis-like authority. On a version of "Band on the Run," McCartney shows his audience how to use an ancient four-track recorder, like in the old days, and invites them to be a part of the recording. He also creates sounds by manipulating wine goblets half-filled with water. He tweedles the opening to "Strawberry Fields Forever" on a Mellotron, as on the original recording, and sings a snatch of the opening verse, a la Lennon. On piano, he performs what he calls "an old lady in new clothes" -- a slowed-down version of "Lady Madonna." All in all, a hardy, and hearty, day's night

The Beatles did great work in Abbey Road Studio 2. Now Paul McCartney returns to tell stories and sings songs; he also plays guitar, drums, harmonium, Melatron, water-filled goblets and the same bass Bill Black used in Elvis' "Heartbreak Hotel."
