A previously unheard recording of The Beatles has shed new light on the insecurities of the Fab Four at the height of their fame.
The remarkable interview, taped as Beatlemania swept Britain, reveals how the band did not consider themselves good musicians but hoped they could get rich quick before their fame subsided. The recording has come to light almost 60 years after a student blagged his way into a press conference before a gig in Hull in 1964- Hull Live reports.
Tasked to report for his student magazine, 18-year-old John Hill paid to get into the ABC Cinema, where the concert was taking place. He then bluffed his way into the room where members of the band were talking to the press and found himself interviewing John Lennon.
