• 9th Aug 2007

The Cavern – The Most Famous Club In The World 3-disc compilation is released 20th August

Containing 50 tracks from artists who have all appeared at the club over the years, the tracklist reads like a Who’s Who of British popular music over the decades, highlighting the importance and influence the club has extended over the years since it opened on 16th January 1957.

The Cavern – The Most Famous Club In The World features The Beatles and The Rolling Stones together for the first time ever on a commercial album, with Arctic Monkeys bringing the tracklist up to date with a previously unreleased live version of The View From The Afternoon.

Local band and current Cavern favourite 10 Reasons To Live provide the hidden 51st track – highlighting the club’s commitment to promoting new music well into it’s 50th year and beyond.
