 The Pete Best BandCasbah Coffee Club: Birthplace of the Beatles Release Date: 2000 02 29 Running Time: 45:32 Label: Ozit Rating:  |
Original Beatles drummer Pete Best's Casbah Coffee Club consists of old rock & roll standards that were originally on the jukebox in the actual Casbah Club. As fans know, the Beatles appeared there under the name Silver Beatles, but at that time Best was not their drummer (he joined after that, just before their famous Hamburg stints). The song selections are fine despite some performances that might be deemed lackluster, and the best moment on the album is the instrumental "Red River Rock." It is interesting to note that the lineup here is the same from Best's 1988 appearances -- one wonders, then, when exactly this CD was recorded. The front sleeve features a photo taken at the Silver Beatles' debut performance in the club. Aaron Badgley, All Music Guide
