"Till There Was You" is a show tune written in 1950 by Meredith Willson, originally entitled "Till I Met You." It was originally recorded October 25, 1950, by Meredith Willson & his Orchestra and Eileen Wilson. The song was retitled and used in his musical play The Music Man (1957), and which also appeared in the 1962 movie version. In 1959, the song became the first of four US Top 40 hits for Anita Bryant.
The Beatles had included "'Till There Was You" as part of their unsuccessful audition for Decca Records in London on January 1, 1962, with Pete Best still on drums and George Harrison doing twice and different solos from 63 vs.
The song was recorded by the Beatles in 1963 and released on their second album With the Beatles (1963) (United Kingdom) and Meet the Beatles! (1964) (United States). It was the only song from a Broadway show released by the band.
The song was part of their pre-recording repertoire in 1962, and they performed it at the Star Club in Hamburg. It became illustrative of the Beatles' versatility, proving that they could appeal to all sections of an audience, moving easily from softer ballads to harder rock and roll, as in their appearance on November 4, 1963, at the Royal Variety Performance when they followed this song with "Twist and Shout".
Here I´ve intended to show a possible rendition with the same gear they used to play in 1962.
- Rickenbacker 325 Capri (John)
- Hofner 500/1 61 bass (Paul)
- Gretsch 6128 Duojet (George)
