And they made their debut, billed as the Beatles, in August 1960 at a little club in Liverpool.

Anyone?

Wrong.

It was called the Jacaranda, and it was a coffee bar where the band used to hang out.

We'll come back to Cavern, I'm sure.

Wow.

And this was really the making of the band in many ways.

Back then, Hamburg was a thriving port city, still is, with a busy club scene.

Liverpool had a burgeoning music scene dubbed Mersey Beat.

And lots of young bands from Liverpool were going over to Hamburg to ply their trade.

Both port towns had a similar kind of vibe going on.

Beatles, one of many British groups that were shown out there.

Yeah, although Paul's brother said his mum would never have allowed him to quit school to do this.

But Jim, the musician, of course, wanted his boys to follow their dreams.

I think that is such a crucial moment.

Can you imagine?

I just, you know, if the parents, if Jim had said no way and the mother had still been alive...

Who knows where we'd be today?

Yeah.

I heard Pete Best over here.
