4.0 out of 5 stars The vibe is there but it doesn't sound like the Beatles, 16 Jan 2001
By A Customer
This CD is the soundtrack to the 1994 movie of the same name, essentially a biopic of the Beatles' pre-fame early days when they were a bunch of leather-clad rockers. The film concentrates on the time the Beatles spent in the seedy German citiy of Hamburg (in particular the relationship between then bassist Stuart Sutcliffe and John Lennon, brillantly played by Ian Hart) and when their repertoitre consisted mostly of cover versions of American rock n roll and R&B tunes, which is what we get here. Just as the actors in the film don't really look that much like the Beatles, the music here is not really an accurate representation of the early sound of the Beatles although I don't think the producers of the film were really looking for that. Having said that, the musicianship is excellent and the raw energy of these songs is perfectly captured by the Backbeat Band - a collaboration of contemporary rock and grunge musicians, such as Mike Mills (REM) and Dave Grohl (Nirvana). Listening to this CD, you can almost smell the stench of those sweaty, seedy Hamburg clubs where the Beatles learned their craft. A worthwhile purchase.
