BEATLES – Day By Day – 6/1/63
Saturday, 1 June, 1963
At BBC Paris Studios in London, The Beatles tape episodes two and three of their “Pop Go the Beatles” radio program.
Episode two will be broadcast on June 11th and features guest The Countrymen. The Beatles perform “Too Much Monkey Business,” “I Got to Find My Baby,” “Youngblood,” “Baby It’s You,” “Till There Was You,” and “Love Me Do.”
Episode three will be broadcast on June 18th features guest Carter-Lewis and the Southerners. The Beatles perform “A Shot of Rhythm and Blues,” “Memphis,” “A Taste of Honey,” “Sure to Fall (in Love With You),” “Money,” and “From Me to You.”
The Beatles, now playing 25-minute sets on package tours, were only able to play their Lennon-McCartney hits in live performance, so they used these radio programs to play some of the cover versions that previously made up a large part of their live performance repertoire . A number of recordings from this day are included on the 1994 Beatles double-CD “Live at the BBC.”
After the recording sessions The Beatles rejoin the Roy Orbison tour at the Granada Cinema, in Tooting for two evening shows.
