THE BEATLES AT HOLLYWOOD BOWL: 50 YEARS AGO


On August 23, 1964, the Beatles played before more than 17,000 screaming fans at the Hollywood Bowl in Los Angeles, California. All 17,256 available tickets for the event held at the prestigious outdoor concert venue sold out in less than three hours when they had gone on sale four months earlier on April 25, 1964. Capitol recorded the performance with the intent of issuing a live album. The concert recording was produced by Capitol vice president Voyle Gilmore, with George Martin's assistance and Hugh Davis serving as engineer. Prior to the show, Billboard reported that Gilmore was hoping the open-air venue would allow the anticipated screaming to dissipate and not overshadow the band's sound. Yeah, right.

SETLIST:
01.  "Introduction / Twist and Shout"
02.  "You Can't Do That"
03.  "All My Loving"
