Best Of The Band

Pete Best, original drummer for The Beatles, has delivered an incredible, surprising album.

Rock'n'roll history tells us that The Beatles began at the Casbah Coffee House, in the Best family basement, and that Pete was an integral part of the group that did two tours of Germany and participated in early recordings for BBC, Polydor, Decca, and EMI. After his mysterious firing and loss of the opportunity of a lifetime, he withdrew from the music business for many years, but eventually formed The Pete Best Band and hit the road doing sold-out gigs, playing the songs that The Beatles performed in Hamburg.

But after a critically lauded PBS special and DVD release in 2006, Best of The Beatles, Pete and his band started to record an album that would show the world something new and different, all original songs which tantalizingly hint at the creativity that Pete could have brought to The Beatles had he remained in the group.

This is that album. Beyond all expectations.
