On 29 January 1964 while playing an 18-day residency at the Paris’ Olympia Theatre. The Beatles entered the Marconi Studios in Paris, for their first and only session for EMI outside of the United Kingdom. A session with a specific purpose. To rerecord two of their biggest hits ‘She Loves You’ and ‘I Want To Hold Your Hand’.
However, these weren’t straight rerecording’s, but German language versions with titles that translate as ‘Sie Liebt Dich’ and ‘Komm, Gib Mir Deine Hand’. This would be the one and only time they recorded foreign language recording of their hits.
In this episode of Fixing A Hole we look into the story behind this unique session and where these recordings where released.
If you’re a fan of the podcast we’d love to hear from you.
