Good?[edit]

Good???

That's the latest incarnation of the Polydor Records Tony Sheridan recordings. It's better to talk about the earlier releases on Polydor. Steelbeard1 10:47, 28 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The credits on "Why"[edit]

Does anybody know the first name of this "Compton" person? --Ian911299

Should we try to propose merging this article with The Beatles' First? Steelbeard1 11:20, 25 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Yikes! I didn't know it had been on AFD. Why didn't anybody tell me? :) I'm quite good at writing deletion rationale. Anyway, never mind. I'd suggest a small merge (smerge) and redirect. --kingboyk 11:01, 30 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Merger proposal into The Beatles' First[edit]

I vote Yes Steelbeard1 11:54, 25 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Switch to original CD issue[edit]

Since some people still want this article in, I changed it to the original CD issue on Polydor. I'm still in favour of merging the article into The Beatles' First. Steelbeard1 10:51, 1 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

German slang word for penis?[edit]

I am a native German speaker and I have never heard of a German slang word for penis that is in any way similar to 'beatle'. But if anyone can provide such a word - I am willing to learn something new... or just drop that information! Atarax42 10:51, 12 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

This seems to be vandalism to me. 75.143.255.187 (talk) 05:57, 23 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

This album is not especially notable, being yet another repackaging of the Tony Sheridan tapes. Article was nominated for AFD but survived. I recommend giving it a brief mention (one line) in another article and replacing with a redirect. Or, renominating for AFRD but with a deletion rationale this time :) --kingboyk 11:08, 30 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
