ONE LP PORTRAITS: MUSIC LOVERS: Mike Dooley

“It's the Beatles 1962 to1966. And it just takes me back a long time.But it was one of the first pieces of music that I really got to know the songs from that album. And my dad's from Liverpool. So of course, I was brought up with The Beatles. And I can always remember Christmas time getting a guitar and I was singing away and ‘She Loves Me’ in front of my mom and dad sitting on the city and it was the bee's knees. I was a business. Absolutely brilliant. And ever since then, I've always listened to The Beatles. You know, if I wanted to, like self, go on some pills, and that's when my go to album just to listen to that. Amazing, amazing tracks.”Session: Mike DooleySession Date: 2 November 2021Location: Loud & Clear, EdinburghReleased: 2 April 1973Recorded: 11 September 1962 – 21 June 1966, EMI Studios, London and Pathé Marconi Studios, ParisLength: 62:34Label: AppleProducer: George MartinCompiler: Allen Klein
