[End] Notes: 1. This chord TAB makes no pretence to capture George and John's frenetic guitar weaving, call-and-answer style. As I may transcribe the lead and bass lines, in a separate TAB. As I really like 'The Beatles' cover version of Chuck Berry's original 'Little Queenie' https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uyp13Q6dQjY. 2."…The 1998 Copyright Act had recently been passed, and Apple's lawyers were able to prove that the Star-Club recordings were made while The Beatles were under contract to EMI. In the witness box Harrison described the tapes as "the crummiest recording ever made in our name, and said that "One drunken person recording another bunch of drunks does not constitute a business deal."…" http://www.beatlesbible.com/albums/live-at-the-star-club-hamburg-germany-1962/
