"In the Beginning (Circa 1960)" is the first consolidated American packaging of the 1962 German album by Tony Sheridan and The Beat Brothers (also known as The Beatles) called "My Bonnie". It was recorded at Hamburg in 1961. This album was originally released as "The Beatles' First" in Germany in 1964 and in the United Kingdom in 1967. Previous American releases of this material in LP form was split in 1964 between MGM Records and Atco Records. Polydor Records established its United States branch in 1969 which explains why this package was released much later in The Beatles' history. Most of the tracks feature vocals by Sheridan. All subsequent releases of Sheridan/Beatles/Beat Brothers material are simply repackages of the same tracks. This album is available in a slightly altered CD by Polydor without the inaccurate "(Circa 1960)" subtitle and with both parts of "Ya Ya". Only part one of that track was released on this LP. "In the Beginning (Circa 1960)" is also the only Beatles album available for download on the iTunes Store.
