Description
THE BEATLES - 'LOVE OF THE LOVED'
The outcome of The Beatles' unsuccessful Decca audition on 1 January 1962 is well known. The Beatles performed of fifteen songs, selected by Brian Epstein, that New Years Day in just under one hour at Decca's studios in West Hampstead, London.
Among the songs played that day were three Lennon–McCartney originals of which the strongest was 'Love of the Loved'. Although credited to Lennon-McCartney, the song was penned exclusively by McCartney and was one of his earliest compositions which and had featured in the Beatles live act in their early days. The track was never officially been released by The Beatles, but was given to the late Cilla Black and became her debut 45 in September 1963.
This genuine EMIDISC acetate contains the song 'Love of The Loved' as recorded at that audition.
The discs is a 1-sided, 45rpm aluminum disc with a coating of nitro-cellulose lacquer bearing a genuine blank 'Emidisc' label of the correct paper with bold, sharp print.
You can listen to a complete unfiltered/unedited recording made from this actual disc on the player below:
CONDITION
Disc
Labels: EXCELLENT
Visual: VERY GOOD
Both are clean & bright with some light surface scuffs but nothing we would call a scratch. The delicate lacquer shows no cracks or crazing or has any sign of mould. There is no chipped or missing lacquer around the edges, just a tiny chip around the hole on the non-playing side. The disc is pure black throughout and not dark red like the counterfeits and does have that distinctive acetate 'smell' and it lies 100% flat on the turntable when playing.
Sound Quality: VERY GOOD
We have played the disc just once, recording it as we did so. The results can be heard on the above YouTube clip
