Triple Feature!

THE BEATLES DOWN UNDER 1994
AUS. TV documentary. Very interesting documentary on the Beatles' 1964 visit to Australia and what it meant to the country and the teenagers. Fantastic crowds. Old black and white footage is zoomed-in to highlight a particular teenager. Then that teenager (now grown up) is interviewed in '94 to remember and explain what it was like back in '64. Paul McCartney is interviewed and was blown away by the sixties Aussie scene! Beatles Down Under!

Plus these additional selections...

THE MERSEY SOUND 1963
Oct-9-63. U.K. documentary on the early 60s Liverpool and Mersey beat scene. Great interviews with club owners and bands. Hear about the Liverpool "protection rackets" and the toughs who come around the clubs "swinging bicycle chains to spoil everyone's pleasure!" Terrific footage inside Liverpool's Iron Door club (rival to the Cavern Club) with The Undertakers and Group One performing. Performances and extended interviews with The Beatles. The Mersey Sound!

LIVERPOOL: THE SWINGING '60s 1995
U.K. documentary. Mersey Beat fans get ready to flip! Totally awesome color footage of the early 60s beat scene includes the Cavern Club and The Stones, Freddie & the Dreamers and the Searchers hanging out in Liverpool! Cool footage of the Merseybeats on tour in Italy. Tony Crane talks about the glory days of the Cavern Club. Plus behind-the-scenes footage from "A Hard Day's Night" and "Help." Music by the Merseybeats. Also archival footage Liverpool's 1960s football clubs, student pranks, history of the ports, and growth of the City Centre.
