Newly discovered Beatles tape sells for $23,000

A mag tape recording of The Beatles that was recently observed by a man in his father's Liverpool dome has sold for $23,000, it was announced today (August 5).


The tape recording, which features John Lennon and Paul McCartney bursting into fits of giggles as they try to finish 'I'll Follow the Sun', was sold to an cyberspace bidder by Cameo Auctioneers.


The half-hour, reel-to-reel tape was recorded in 1964 and also includes versions of 'I Feel Fine,' 'I'm a Loser' and 'Don't Put Me Down Like This', reports the Associated Press.
