"Pete Best and his brother do a fine job banging out good old fashioned Rock and Roll. This C.D. is like hearing a good bar band with one of the most famous drummers in the world. A must have for any true Beatles fan."

Relive the 60's

"This is a "fun" album comprised of old 60's rock. The highlights are "Be My Baby" and "When you walk in the room" Nothing earth shattering or groundbreaking-but a good live album by a band that sounds like they're enjoying themselves. The interview with Pete Best is okay-but the interviewer-for whatever reason-avoids more meaningful questions. Pete Best is a help to me whenever things go wrong-ie missed promotions, lost opportunites-whatever--I think of Pete and realize it could always be worse!!! I'd recommend this cd to anyone who likes 60's rock&roll-not just Beatles fans. This is a much better cd than John Lennon's "Rock and Roll""

Enjoyable CD, good selections, but not enough Pete!

"Well done selections from the Cavern era, but if you are looking for Pete he's tough to find. First of all, he doesn't do any vocals, which is not a big deal. More importantly though, if you are looking forward to hearing the state of his chops behind the drums (as I was), that too is made difficult since his younger brother Roag doubles on drums. This dual drumming obviously prevents an assessment of Pete's ability to drive a band on his own. The album is enjoyable, though, and if you're a Pete fan you gotta have it."
