12 HOURS TO PLEASE ME

It’s the 50th anniversary of The Beatles Please Please Me album recording session at Abbey Road studio. On Monday, February 11th 1963, the Beatles (John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison and Ringo Starr) made their debut record in just 12 hours.

Leading artists will attempt to perform the same feat today, re-recording Please Please Me on the same timetable and in the same studio. Follow this event on the BBC website live.
