Elvis Presley won second prize in a radio-sponsored talent contest, at the age of 10, in 1945. He sang Old Shep at the Mississippi-Alabama Fair and Dairy Show in front of several hundred people in downtown Tupelo. Elvis was still very shy and so it must have come as quite a surprise to his classmates in attendance when he performed on Children’s Day, standing on a chair so he could reach the microphone.
	Beatles first single, Love Me Do, was released this week in 1962. A special CD single of the track was issued in 1992 on its 30^th anniversary that included the original single, as well as the version with Andy White on drums. It also contained the B-side, P.S. I Love You. The album, Please Please Me included Love Me Do with White’s drumming and Ringo on tambourine, and so when it was released, the album version with White was used in further pressings of the Love Me Do single. Ringo still feels the scars today, and you can hear him talk about it on his VH1 Storytellers CD.
