"KANSAS CITY" RECORDED AT THE CAVERN IN 1962 REVEALED



A more complete of the Beatles' live performance of “Kansas City” recorded at the Cavern in 1962 revealed. Part of this song was heard in the background at some point in "The Beatles Anthology" with a voiceover marring it. Here's the whole song, in pretty decent sound. The song was recorded in a single take after having been played live for years.
This version was recorded on Sept. 5, 1962 and cut to acetate. Only five ever existed, with the last one sold at auction in 1993. Anyway, someone got a copy and put it up. Here's a piece of history. Ignore the 1961 tag on the video; this is definitely the '62 performance.
