ski resort before lock down. and germans make great cars and washing machines so why can't they put together a decent outfit the latest in our series meet the german. but 1st they were the bookers 4th choice that night at a club known more for strippers and prostitutes and for good music but that is how the beatles got their very 1st paid gig 60 years ago this week in hamburg west germany today of course they're one of the most famous bands in the world and despite the coronavirus hamburg's for how many concert house put on a very special performance to celebrate their 60th. 'd buy me love like you've never heard it before jazz pianist yulia whose man's unusual rearrangement of the beatles classic causes 60 years of

beatles celebration in hamburg. isn't just my jazz musician so for us it's about inside station and we wanted to be in our language so to speak so it has plenty of solid parts clearly. beatles music interpreted anew without the usual drums bass and guitar christopher down vibraphone amnesty program on trombone respond as it was very exciting i spent hours really listening closely to the music and thinking how i could interpret it as if you were talking to your. normally hamburg spectacular phenomenon with its 2000 seats would be booked out for an event like this julie coronavirus pandemic the concert hall has taken huge hits it's trying to maintain contact with all.

audiences of course titled side we invited artists and paid them to perform here without a live audience but we recorded and stream if this over the summer would set up a cinema he and front of the concert hall to 250 people where they can watch the performances so it's a lot of work and doesn't make us any money but we have to take every opportunity to let the music from the elder fill the money speak for the what is fair thing as a kind of. this week's beatles concert is a point of pride for handing the band's 1st of a concert was here in hamburg make light district on the 17th of all this 960 microphone to the intercom for 7 weeks john and george 3 boys from liverpool without gringos stop and met him shortly after at another club a few metres down the road they also picked up their iconic a stands here to show how things really took off for the full mark heads when they performed and recorded in the new neocon style club.

today even the elders feel the money would be too small for a beatles performance. this tribute concert is testament to the band's insuring legacy and to the concert halls reputation and even without any outbursts of beatlemania this balmy summer evening shows the fab four's music still resonates 60 years on. 60 years ago this week the beatles played their very 1st concert and my colleague michael korda is here with me mike we know looking back there that that concert in hamburg was a milestone in music history did the band have any sense of that at the time certainly not because they were is so young. and so on experienced they hadn't even

written their own songs yet mike and it was just a cover bed and not the best one so they played the whole night for hours because they haven't even read the contract before so. it was before they got famous and then some night there wasn't a bad way they could sleep they slept backstage it was a tough time but they learned a lot different every single stock at the drums wasn't even there yet pete best was at the drums the manager of the band later threw him out of the band because he wasn't good enough and there was a 5th member it was not the fact for they with fife. you had sacked kid was the want and he felt unloved and humble and stay fit so. stead of playing or what the different times different times those were different times now we saw images just a while ago of this beatles tribute concert and hamburg i want to talk a little bit about that because she are in europe at least concerts concert was

outdoors but concerts are moving indoors a little bit but with a lot of safety regulations empty seats between audience members now though we've got an announcement from germany's top research hospital that they're actually not recommending space between seats what what can you tell us about exactly now they are saying that we can sit next to each other and every seat can be filled if there is a good and modern. technology then ventilation system and so on and but in the end it depends of the discipline of the audience everybody has to wear face mosque and has to stay in the seat but usually in a classic concept nobody will jump out of the sea trying to dance or to sing along . and there will be quite say no sneezing on each other like the woman who made this morning on the train. so much my cure for coming on the show thank you and now the beatles are still big here. germany and many other places but now something
