On this day in 1962, @TheBeatles released their debut single ‘Love Me Do’. The recording session took place at Abbey Road on 4 September 1962, which was also the late Geoff Emerick’s second day working at the studio and his first time sitting in on a Beatles’ session.

After finishing college for good, finishing a full length album in three months and two nights of celebrating the Arctic Monkeys new record is just what i need.
