Notes: The American documentary makers - The Maysles Brothers, were given exclusive access to almost every minute of The Beatles first American visit.
After their live "Ed Sullivan Show" appearance, Murray The K took the lads out for dinner and then some dancing at "The Peppermint Lounge".
The Maysles brothers also came along and filmed some footage, mainly of Ringo twisting up a storm with some local girls.
Following this it was back to the hotel room.
Some of this film footage shot by The Maysles brothers ended up in the two 1964 documentaries and further outtakes can be seen in the DVD bonus feature "The Making of".
