Tracklist:

1. Please Please Me
2. Beg Me
The one and only single from Manchester band The Score was first released by Decca Records in November 66; if it is possible to improve upon a Beatles original then the twin guitar attack of Ken White and Frank Davies make this cover of the famed February 63 No. 2 a very strong contender. The raw delivery of singer Eddy Lamb is carried along by a bass line that nods to a more recent Fab Four release, Taxman, while the songs coda tips a hat to a Rolling Stones hit from a year earlier. Things get even more exciting on the B-Side, where The Score turn in a blistering performance of Chuck Jacksons Northern Soul floorfiller, Beg Me, a favourite in clubs like the Twisted Wheel, and still popular with todays discerning Mod crowd, who have been known to part with 250 for an original copy.
