The Fete

The earliest recording we have of John singing. Not strictly a Beatles recording, but it's certainly relevant.

This was recorded at Woolton Garden Fete on the day John and Paul officially met for the first time. (There are tantalizing hints that it wasn't the first time they met, but that's for another blog).

John was 16 when this was recorded.

Also performing with him were

Eric Griffiths - Guitar

Colin Hanton - Drums

Rod Davies - Banjo

Pete Shotton - Washboard

Len Gary - Tea Chest Bass

It's very cool to have any recording from that day and is pretty much a fluke that a fan would bring a recording device at all. They weren't exactly small.

Apparently, the entire set was recorded, but hasn't been released. Maybe it will be in the future. Who knows.

Here are the songs he's covering, if you haven't heard them:

It was recorded in 1926, but the most famous version was

As you can see, John changed it quite a lot. He made it more rock and gave it that Lennon flare. The Quarrymen would have absolutely rather done that version as seen here

but John was going to make it Rock n' Roll anyway.

This is Elvis' version of the second song. It's not originally Elvis of course, but this is what John was probably basing his version on.

This is the original

To be honest, John's version doesn't sound like either of these. As usual, John added his own thing and made the song all his own.

cant tell you how bad it feels to constantly tell other artists to come to tumblr, because its the last good website that isn't fucked up by spoonfeeding algorithms and AI bullshit and isn't based around meaningless likes

just to watch that all fall apart in the last year or so and especially the last two weeks

there's nowhere good to go anymore for artists.

edit - a lot of people are saying the tags are important so actually, you'll look at my tags.

#please dont delete your accounts because of the AI crap. your art deserves more than being lost like that #if you have a good PC please glaze or nightshade it. if you dont or it doesnt work with your style (like mine) please start watermarking #use a plain-ish font. make it your username. if people can't google what your watermark says and find ur account its not a good watermark #it needs to be central in the image - NOT on the canvas edges - and put it in multiple places if you are compelled #please dont stop posting your art because of this shit. we just have to hope regulations will come slamming down on these shitheads#in the next year or two and you want to have accounts to come back to. the world Needs real art #if we all leave that just makes more room for these scam artists to fill in with their soulless recycled garbage #improvise adapt overcome. it sucks but it is what it is for the moment. safeguard yourself as best you can without making #years of art from thousands of artists lost media. the digital world and art is too temporary to hastily click a Delete button out of spite

One of my favorite trope for Steddie is Steve hunting down Eddie when the kids join Hellfire and giving him a long list of dos and donts.

At first Eddie thinks he’s just being a prick, and worried he’s going to turn the nerds into freaks like him. Especially when he says not to mention drugs in front of Dustin.

But then he starts pulling out lists of monsters that can’t be in campaigns. And like what??? Why can’t he use demagorgons? They were gonna be in the next combat! He’s tempted to ignore the warnings, in fact he’s all set to, but something about Steve’s face when he was laying it all out haunts him. Something so deadly serious about it. So first he decides to test the waters to see if he’s full of shit.

When the session starts, he makes a throwaway comment, “you’re acting like there’s a mindflayer around the corner.”

All the kids freeze but Wheeler especially looks like he’s going to be sick. He even grabs at the bracelet around his wrist. The one he always said his best friend made him before he moved.

Eddie curses himself for even trying to test it out after that, and immediately bullshits the whole session so he can scrap any hint of demogorgans from the campaign.

After that session he drives straight to Harringtons house and demands they go over all the things he can’t include again, in detail, while he takes notes.

He doesn’t know what’s going on with these freshmen, but he knows trauma when he sees it and well he’d gotten attached to the gremlins.

When he leaves that night, he thinks Steve is looking at him with approval. Like he trusts him with their well-being now.
