"Beatles Press Conference Seattle August 21, 1964" / "Beatles Press Conference Seattle August 21, 1964

MISC NOTES: When Kearney Barton learned that the Beatles were to be holding a press conference, he grabbed a portable recorder and raced over to the Seattle Center Coliseum to record the event. Two decades later he dug that tape out and this limited edition (2000 discs) was the result. (Produced for the John Lennon Memorial Society of Portland Oregon, they confused things a bit by conflating Seattle's Memorial Stadium, with the Coliseum.)
