A. Title: Juke Box Jury.
Location: Palladium, London. Country: England.

B.a. Title: It’s the Beatles!
Location: Empire Theatre, Liverpool. Country: England.
Date: Saturday 7 December 1963. Aired: Saturday 7 December 1963.

Excerpts from "I Want to Hold Your Hand", "Money (That’s What I Want)" (spoken intro only) and "Twist and Shout".
Fab’s Collectors Items, Vol. 1 (first capture) has the longest dub, at 2:42, but the MCP release is smoother.

Fellow collector Robert M. has informed me that MMR’s Empire Theater, Liverpool 63.12.07
is a higher-quality source for this footage (and was in fact copied over for the Fab release).

B.b. Title: It’s the Beatles!
Location: Empire Theatre, Liverpool. Country: England.
Date: Saturday 7 December 1963. Aired: [Master tape].

The best source, running 9:25, features an incomplete "I Want to Hold Your Hand",
"Money (That’s What I Want)", "Twist and Shout", "From Me to You" (reprise) and "Harry Lime (Third Man Theme)".

The shorter one (first capture), which is extremely fragmented, has snippets of "From Me to You",
"I Saw Her Standing There", "All My Loving", "Roll Over Beethoven", "Till There Was You", "She Loves You",
"I Want to Hold Your Hand", "Money (That’s What I Want)" and "Twist and Shout".

Other, artificially-extended versions, obtained by looping audience shots over a more complete
audio recording, are also available on the source DVD.
