久しぶりに出たビートルズの初登場音源を収録したものである。1962年10月17日グラナダTV「PEOPLE AND PLACES」の2曲「Some Other Guy」と「Love Me Do」、さらにピートベストに変わってリンゴが正式ドラマーになって初めての客前での演奏となる1962年10月25日BBC「HERE WE GO」での「Love Me Do」「蜜の味」「PS I Love You」、前掲と同じく1962年11月2日と17日グラナダTVの「蜜の味」「Twist And Shout」の2曲は、いずれもこれまで聴くことの出来なかった初登場音源。そして最大の目玉は1963年4月5日マンチェスターのEMIハウスにおけるプライベート・ライブ「From Me To You」と「Please Please Me」である。フロントジャケや帯に使われている写真は有名なものであるが、まさにその時の演奏である。もちろん今回が初登場ライブ音源である。美しいピクチャー・ディスク仕様の永久保存がっちりプレス盤。日本語帯付。
