This DVD is the first of many to be released by MM Recording Inc. We have found and compiled the most complete film of the beatles performance at the Empire Theatre. All film is remastered, re-edited and upgraded for the best possible viewing.

The Beatles first show in Liverpool in tour months was bound to be a special event. A special concert was to be held at the Empire Theatre, before 2500 members of the group's Northern Area Fanclub. But luckily the BBC were there to film the show, screening 30 minutes in a special peak-time programme entitled "It's The Beatles". The concert took place between 3.45 and 4.30 on Saturday, the 7th of December and was broadcast that same evening.

Unfortunately out of the 12 songs performed, only the final three have sutvived in the BBC Archives. The rest of the material is lost, except for a few crowd shots with short sound extracts. Forthis DVD, MM Recording Ine has collected all available footage from the event in order to compile the most complete version of The Beatles performance at the Empire Theater.
All the footage has been remastered, re-edited and upgraded for the best possible viewing.
