THE BEATLES – MEMPHIS, TENNESSEE (Chuck Berry) From THE BEATLES
LIVE AT THE BBC album. Released on 1994. Performed
on Pop Go The Beatles #7 on 30th July 1963.
------------------------------------------------------------------
With the commitment of their BBC Light Programme radio series
Pop Go The Beatles, the group were obliged to return to London
early in the morning of Wednesday 10 July to record two shows,
for transmission on Tuesday 23 and 30 July respectively, both
from 5:00 to 5:29 pm. Programme six was rehearsed and recorded
from 10:30 am to 1:30 pm, programme seven from 1:30 to 3:30 pm.
After that, the group made a mash back to Margate, in order to
appear in the first "house" of the evening at the Winter
Gardens.
In programme six The Beatles performed "Sweet Little Sixteen",
"A Taste Of Honey", "Nothin' Shakin'", "Love Me Do", "Lonesome
Tears In My Eyes" and "So How Come (No One Loves Me)".
In the seventh show they played "Memphis Tennessee", "Do You
Want To Know A Secret", "Till There Was You", "Matchbox",
"Please Mr. Postman" and "The Hippy Hippy Shake".
The Beatles' guests in these two programmes were Carter-Lewis
& The Southerners and The Searchers respectively.
Long distance information
Give me Memphis, Tennessee
Try to find the party
Trying to get in touch with me
She would not leave her number
But I know who placed the call
Cos my uncle took the message
And he wrote it on the wall
Help me, information
Get in touch with my Marie
She's the only one who'd phone me here
From Memphis, Tennessee
Her home is on the south side
Just beyond the ridge
Just a half a mile
From the Mississippi Bridge
Help me, information
More than that I cannot add
Only that I miss her
And all the fun we had
We were pulled apart
Because her mom would not agree
Help me get in touch with her
In Memphis, Tennessee
GUITAR SOLO
The last time I saw Marie
She was waving me goodbye
With hurry homedrops on her cheek
That trickled from her eyes
Marie is only six years old
Information please
Help me get in touch with her
In Memphis, Tennessee
INTRO
