Love Me Do: 50 Songs That Shaped The Beatles (2012)
20 августа 2012 г. выйдет двухдисковое издание сборника "Love Me Do: 50 Songs That Shaped The Beatles", посвящённая музыке, оказавшей влияние на битлов.
Coinciding with half a century since the Beatles made their recorded debut, Fantastic Voyage presents Love Me Do: 50 Songs That Shaped The Beatles, showing the wildly-diverse range of influences which helped shape the musical mindsets of the individuals who turned into the Beatles, the biggest group the world has ever seen.
Apart from the expected rock ‘n’ roll and blues which provided life-changing epithanies for any self-respecting artists coming up in the 1950s, the set crucially examines the less likely outings which would manifest in Beatles songs after they had climbed to fame with their signature beat and ballad sound; music hall, comedy, jazz, girl groups, country, musicals and novelty songs. Compiled and annotated by respected Beatlesologist Spencer Leigh [author of Tomorrow never Knows], the set also underlines the Fabs’ grounding in the classic Tin Pan Alley song writing craft.
