I saw her standing there was the opener on the first album. The song would be used as concert opener in June 1964. But All my loving was the first track on the more recent second album, so I guess that is the reason. Had they chosen the current concert opening number then Roll over Beethoven would have been played, but I am sure they wanted to concentrate on original songs as much as they could.

But in modern times he just count 1-2-3-4.

They played it so fast, John had a lot of trouble keeping up. It’s a tough play at normal speed!

Was it a group decision for the set list or did Brian dictate what would be played and when that eventful night??????

Paul, Norman Smith, George Martin have all confirmed this at various times.

Do you understand that George H. sang with Paul in live performance because he COULDN’T sing both parts at the same time? Come on, people……

I like George singing along with Paul, plus he adds the little guitar flourish at the end of each verse like he does at the end of the instrumental break.

It was the FIRST LIVE performance by the Beatles that most of us ever heard!

It’s spot on.
