A legal attempt has begun to block the release of early Beatles recordings. Lawyers for the group's surviving members have claimed the eight tracks, apparently played in Hamburg in 1962, were taped without permission.
The songs include Paul McCartney performing Lovesick Blues by Hank Williams, and McCartney and Lennon singing together on Ask Me Why. But the Miami company trying to sell the music, Fuego Entertainment, has insisted the recordings were legal. The firm's president, Hugo Cancio, told the Associated Press he planned to release the songs as an album entitled Jammin' with The Beatles and Friends, Star Club, Hamburg, 1962. "It's unfair to millions of Beatles fans not to allow this recording to be put out. The world deserves to hear these tracks."
Apple, let it be!
