On this day The Beatles recorded 10 songs of their debut album Please Please Me, at EMI's Abbey Road Studios in London. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W42ZEUvqh-s Well, it was a very cold morning and I didn't know any of them. I actually had to ask Norman Smith, who was the engineer, 'Who are they? Who are who?' so he introduced me and everything else. They were very businesslike, and they just had come down into London from the gig they had done the night before. But they were fine, just like any other group that's coming in to record. The first session began at 10am. The Beatles recorded 10 takes of There's A Place and nine of I Saw Her Standing There, which at the time had the working title Seventeen. The first session finished at 1pm and the studio staff took a break for lunch. The Beatles, meanwhile, had other plans. http://www.beatlesbible.com/1963/02/11/recording-please-please-me-lp/
