Ain't She Sweet 
History 
Another of the Hamburg recordings of 1961, but this time there was no input from Tony
Sheridan.  This one is all Beatles!  Ain't She Sweet was probably recorded on
June 24, 1961 at Studio Rahlstedt, in Hamburg.  This was the second part of the Tony
Sheridan / Beatles recording sessions for Polydor (Deutsche Grammophon).  Pete Best
plays the drums on this track.  This Beatles' version was probably inspired by Gene
Vincent's 1956 release.
