Live!
at the Star-Club in Hamburg, Germany; 1962 is a double album featuring
live performances by The Beatles , recorded in late December 1962 at
the Star-Club during their final Hamburg residency. The album was
released in 1977 in two different versions, comprising a total of 30
songs by The Beatles. The performances were recorded on a home tape machine using a single microphone, resulting in a low fidelity recording. Ted "Kingsize" Taylor began to investigate possible marketing of the tapes in 1973. The tapes were eventually bought by Paul Murphy and subjected to extensive audio processing to improve the sound, leading to the 1977 album. Lingasong Records was a record label formed by Paul Murphy of Buk Records for the sole purpose of producing and marketing The Beatles ' live album "Live! at the Star-Club in Hamburg, Germany; 1962".
