PBS interviews Kevin Howlett, compiler of the Beatles' latest batch of BBC recordings and author of a new book about the band's sessions for the Beeb.
  "I first investigated this material way back at the end 1981 and you could discover all the paperwork related to the Beatles radio programs, what songs they covered, but finding the tapes, that was another matter."
