It was interesting to read in Bill Harry's 2012 book: Love Me Do: Behind the Scenes at the Recording of the Beatles' First Single.https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00993ER0I/ref=dbs_a_def_rwt_bibl_vppi_i0

That whilst Brian Epstein was in London February 1962 by chance he bumped into fellow Liverpudlian Paul Murphy (ex-Rory Storm & The Hurricanes) somewhere near Green Park.

"He told Paul that he was trying to interest recording companies into listening to the Decca tapes. Paul told him that he needed to have the reel-to-reel tapes turned into acetates if he wanted A&R men to listen to them and he took him into the HMV store in Oxford St. where they offered the service of transferring tapes to disc."


Short book, but very good read.
