20x4 -
An interesting collection of tracks by The Beatles, John, Paul,
George and a rare Ringo Japanese promo advertisement along with
a Paul/Wings rarity ""Hi Hi Hi / C Moon" advertisement.. Several
"Outfakes" make this title a real find. The sound quality
suffers a bit but still acceptable considering this is a 1981
release. Vinyl source.

Abbey Road NW8 Source Tape
(Darthdisc) -
From the Darthdisc Archives: one
of the classic vinyl boots, featuring alternate mixes and
outtakes from the "Abbey Road" sessions, as well as a visit with
Paul and Donovan, from a session for Mary Hopkin's "Postcard"
album - now on CD for the first time from a tape source
(previous transfers have been from vinyl). This title is the
much needed replacement for item No. 3
Abbey Road NW 8.
Abbey Road
Video Show -
Comment
from a fan: I had
the chance of a lifetime to visit
Abbey Road during summer break and I can tell you it's an
amazing place. So much history, so many memories I'll always
cherish. Once you start the tour, the Abbey Road Video Show
soundtrack begins playing throughout and you're just mesmerized
by all the various stages of the building, film clips and
incredible music.
John Barrett
was a major contributor to the Road Show. Sound quality is amazing.

Acetates
(2CD) -
Contains
never-before-heard acetates that the Beatles presented to United
Artists during the pre-production of 'A Hard Day's Night' and
'Help!' WOW!
Acetate Collection
- From the Booklet:
This CD brings together a
collection of Acetates from 1961-69. Some tracks here make their
debut to CD and have remained previously unreleased until now.
Firstly an MGM/Verve
Acetate of The Beatles June 24, 1961 recording of "Ain't She
Sweet"; followed by two 7", 1 sided Emi-disc Mono Acetates of
"She's A Woman". The first being take 6, the released take, but
the second compiles a false start and take 7, these acetates
were probably cut the same day as the mono mixing for "She's A
Woman" on October 12, 1964. This is followed by an 8" stereo
Capitol Acetate of "Paperback Writer", take 2, the same as the
released take. The last three tracks have been taken from a
'Cutting Room Inc.' 1 sided stereo acetate.
The first two recordings from this disc have appeared on
previous Bootlegs over the years, most notably on "What A Shame,
Mary Jane Had A Pain At The Party", a 12" Bootleg E.P released
in 1979 on a fake EMI label. For some unknown reason the third
song was not included here and has remained unreleased. Here for
the first time on CD is included that 'Edit-Version' of "What's
The New Mary Jane".
Acoustic
Submarine (2CD) -
39 acoustic outtakes and tracks by
The Beatles on two disks.
More>>
-
This is primarily the alternate
takes
(wonderfully done) of the classic song;
"A Day in the Life". Another excellent Yellow Dog
release. Most of the differences are longer intros and fades but
it's nice to have all these variations in one place. The sound
quality is excellent as all the mixes have a flatter, less
processed sound which is a plus.

Alf Together Now -
An
audio time capsule of the early Beatles
as recorded by their chauffeur Alf Bicknell.
If there exists a collection
of recordings that you need in order to complete your
collection,
THIS IS IT!
Another Sessions Plus -
An alternate "Sessions" album
thanks to mixes made by John Barrett in 1982 for the Abbey
Road-Road show. These mixes are better than what appeared on the
Anthology releases.

Anthology 4
(Advanced Test)(2CD) -
Includes
Studio Outtakes / Demos 1957-1964.
Nice collection of Anthology tracks all in one place.
A fantastic follow up to the leftovers of the
ANTHOLOGY series.
Anthology 5
(Advanced Test)(2CD) -
Alternate Versions / Rare Tracks 1965-1968.
Nice collection of more Anthology tracks all in one place.
Anthology 6
(Advanced Test)(2CD)
-
The White
Album & Get Back Sessions 1968-1969. Nice
collection of many more Anthology tracks all in one place. The
last follow up to the ANTHOLOGY leftovers.
Anthology Extra -
The Beatles Anthology Extra-CD
brings you MORE of the best still unreleased studio-outtakes,
home-demos and live-recordings. This compilation was designed to
be an authoritative addition to the ANTHOLOGY-series. Into your
home and onto your ears!
Comment from a fan...It's
a great buzz to be a Beatleg hunter & to have heard literally
EVERYTHING there is to hear & to suddenly find a album with
stuff on it you've never heard before...for me this was one of
those moments!

Anthology Outtakes (4CD) -
The Best Of
and The Rest Of the left-over
"Anthology" tracks.
Some interestingly rare songs that were
somehow
left off of the official Anthology releases. This title
comprises the best sources available at this time. Sound quality
is overall excellent. Vol 1,
Vol 2,
Anthology Plus
(2CD) -
The three official "Anthology"
double cd's have some "unofficial" sequels...
The double cd
"Anthology Plus"
is the first one. It was
followed by another double cd
"Anthology More"
and then a single CD
"Anthology Extra".
The
Liverpool material is new to disk or a major upgrade from
Anthology 3.
Anthology Plus
is a disk worth seeking out, it compliments the official
Anthology series with all the bonus tracks. The 8 minute
version of "It's All Too Much" and Paul's vocal on "She's So
Heavy" make this disk worthwhile.
Arrive Without Aging -
Many of the tracks on this
bootleg appear here for the first time (although in varying
quality compared to later releases). However, a nice collection
of rarities, outtakes and demos. GREAT!
As It Happened, Baby
(The Boardroom Tape)
-
Rehearsals, playbacks,
monitor mixes, home-demos.
You'll hear it all exactly "As It Happened, Baby!" The Boardroom
Tape: Get a sneak peek behind the scenes as the EMI bigwigs
audition some unheard Fab 4 numbers.
Back Track (3CD)
-
The legendary "Back Track" set
Re-Mastered and guaranteed to please.
This "unknown publisher" title was released in the late 80's and
quickly gained a tremendous following.
Very ahead of its time and loaded with incredibly rare tracks
that still amaze Beatle fans to this day!
NICE!
Beatles For Sale
Deluxe Edition
(Purple
Chick) -

Celluloid Rock -
A really great disc and
certainly one of the best of the early yellow dog titles. This
is probably the most enjoyable cd of Get Back material to
listen to for a Beatles fan that hasn't taken the dive into the
sessions yet.
Complete
Home
Recordings 1958-1962 (2CD) -
Incredible and historic recordings from 1958 as recorded by
John, Paul, George, Colin Hanton and Duff Lowe - the
original Quarrymen. Songs include the only
Paul/George composition; In Spite Of All The Danger with
Stu
Sutcliffe
on bass! Pre-Beatles for
sure.
Sound quality is typical of the
home recordings from 1960(?) fair to poor quality but definitely
worth it.
Complete
Home
Recordings 1963 -
Another Silent Sea release
and worthy of their reputation. Authentic home tapes as recorded
by the group and other segments caught in private moments.
Examples are:
Songs
being rehearsed at John's home in Liverpool in Early 1963,
Silliness at the Royal Pier Hotel in Weston-Super-Mare. Beatles
with Gerry Marsden,
Fragments
and an early rendition of
Michelle
July-August, 1963
at various locations and
George
being
recorded in
August
19-24, 1963 in a Bournemouth hotel room.
Good Stuff indeed!
Complete
Home
Recordings 1964-1966 -
Another Home series by
Silent Sea. Great set if you're looking for the Santa Isabel
demos of Strawberry Fields. In addition, this set contains the
Mellotron improvisation tracks recorded by John in June-August,
1966 and rare Home Recording of these classics
If I Fell,
Michelle and
He Said He Said.
Complete
Home
Recordings 1967-1968 -
Excellent compilation cd
by Silent Sea. This set continues the incredible "Home
Recording" series. 52 tracks with many unheard gems. Worthy of
any serious Beatles collection.
Nice to have if you're looking for all of this material in one
spot. Priceless...
Complete
Home
Recordings 1968
-
A combination of Esher
Demos
and
ANTHOLOGY remixes.
These recordings are available elsewhere but not as a complete
package as found here. Though, the majority of these tracks are
recorded at George's home in Esher - John's mono tape is being
used exclusively. Excellent!
Complete
Home
Recordings 1968-1969 -
The last title in a series
by Silent Sea. Some isolated highlights and performances not
heard elsewhere are here. New
are; Case of the Blues,
Don't Let Me Down,
I Want You,
Because, and the
Give Peace a Chance demos.
SS rounded this disk out with the
"Message to Japan" track from Yoko. Enjoy!

Day By Day
(56CD) -
"The Complete "Get Back Sessions" Vols 1-28...A
Rolls
One of Yellow Dogs best sets.
As recorded by Camera A. Incomparable to anything on the market!
Day By Day
(20CD) -
"The Complete "Get Back Sessions" Vols 29-38...A
Rolls
This is the much
anticipated continuation of the "Get
Back" Sessions.
Purple Dog/Chick
released this Beatleg due to Yellow's legal woes but that didn't
stop the quality as found in Volumes 1-28.
(MP3
format)
Comment from a fan...I
can't stress the historical importance of these recordings
enough.
Where else can you find these treasures? Capitol will never
release these nor will Apple.

Dead Man's Walkman
(2CD)
-
These tracks
represent the only time that official Beatle studio
outtakes have ever been allowed
to leave the Abbey Road Studio vaults in an official capacity. John Barrett, diagnosed
with a terminal illness - requested that he be allowed to
document the Beatles session log
while
undergoing treatment. He was given the go ahead and compiled the
most cohesive and complete set to date. Many of these tracks
appear on other titles but this is where it all started.
Down in Havana -
'I Will' &
'Hey Jude' Sessions,
some previously unreleased.
Also contains
a
complete
set of 'Hey Jude" session takes. The song
"Jamming" is the first appearance on a Beatleg. Cool!
EP Club -
Master recording for this 20 track set provided by
"Base Two" of Japan. Sound quality is excellent.
Contains a very bluesy-unreleased edit of
"Helter Skelter" that is
so cool. In addition,
there are several original stereo tracks that are simply a great
listen. Examples are: My Bonnie, Sweet Georgia Brown, Ain't She
Sweet and Please Please Me. Also contains the backing track to
"Hold Me Tight"! Nice set.
Every Little Thing
(Overdone Productions)
(8CD)
8 disk collection of rarities
from around the world . Recording
variations, rare mixes, and musical oddities that are
simply a must hear!
Comment
from a fan:
I have many of the Beatles outtakes and studio recordings but
this collection really blew me away! I've never heard the amount
of variations and other musical inclusions that are apart of
this fabulous set. This is a 10 on a 10 scale!

Every Little Thing
(The Making Of "BEATLES FOR
SALE" album & single)
(2CD) -
"Beatles For Sale" era
sessions.
Remixing the "Beatles For Sale" era rarities. The complete session tapes of all these songs in one place! The
sound quality is crystal clear, you feel like you're in the
studio with them.
From Kinfauns To Chaos (2CD) -
CD features the most complete, best sounding version to date of
the May, 1968 "White Album" demos recorded at George's "Kinfauns"
Bungalow on disk one.
Disk 2: A rare opportunity
to hear a live session. The tape is Yoko's with the Beatles
heard in the background. Since you hear Yoko's voice throughout,
you might be annoyed, but remember, if she hadn't been there
with the recorder on, we wouldn't have this at ALL.
What's especially neat is how the transition from Revolution 1
to Revolution 9 is documented. You can hear REPEATEDLY the track
being replayed in the back, as well as some random jamming.
Comment from a fan:
Excellent sound quality
and the mood in which they were recorded makes this a better
listen than the official White Album! Probably the best boot in
the world! Well, maybe one of the
best.
From Then To
You

Gone Tomorrow, Here Today -
During a chat between
John, Yoko and George Martin, you can hear Paul in the
background working on an acoustic version of Helter Skelter.
Fantastic! Recorded at the Abbey Road Studios, Studio 2 on June
11th and July 29th, 1968 and at Trident Studios, St. Anne's
Court, London on August 28th and 29th, 1968.

Hard Days And Nights (2CD) -
Compilation of "A Hard Day's
Night" era material.
Includes the stereo edition of "A Hard
Day's Night" LP, the mono
"Long Tall Sally" EP and the German language single
in stereo. Great Stuff. Good one stop source for AHDN sessions
and mix variations.

Help! Sessions -
Fantastic! Includes
an

Take 2 of "Yesterday"!
Plus several acetate recordings and alternate mixes that are a
joy to listen to. "Another Girl" is just incredible! This alone is worth the
price of admission.
I Hope We Passed The Audition
- A great collection of all the various pre-EMI recordings in
one handy package. Excellent sound quality and another high mark
for Purple Chick.

The rare
"B" Rolls as captured by the "Nagra"
Film crew at Twickenham in 1969.
This phenomenal audio treasure - caught live and uncensored of
the Beatles early sessions that became the inspiration
for the film "Let It Be" goes beyond the
"A" Rolls (Day By Day) as it
fills in the gaps the primary cameras weren't able to catch for
various reasons. This set is a goldmine and is a perfect

Magical Mystical Boy
(2CD) -
A wonderful collection.
Highly recommended! I commend Silent Sea's presentation of the
tracks on this 2 disk set. The songs flow in a way that really
lets the listener HEAR the progression from take to take and mix
to mix. Sound quality is excellent, documentation very good. Top
quality stuff
indeed.
(Magical

more!)

Magical Mystery Demos -
Finally, a full

disk devoted exclusively to one
of the most overlooked Beatle albums;
Magical Mystery
Tour.
Comment from a fan: I couldn't wait
to hear this one! I've always
looked for disks that had the first demo (Track
#1) on it. "Chapter One"
out did themselves by putting 3
firsts in the set list plus film version tracks.

Meet The Threetle's
(Purple
Chick)
-
Nice tracks of the "Threetles"
jamming. Where else can you find a disk with these songs? It's
great to hear the complete "Threetle" jams, all in one place.
Nice set!
Comment from a fan: Whether or
not you really want to hear all those Free
As A Bird and
Real Love tracks is one thing but
do
get the disk for tracks 1-7.
Miscellaneous Tracks
(YD 2005)
-
Very
nice old / new collection of previously released tracks but in
much better quality. Yellow Dog has gone the extra mile and
compiled an amazing sounding disk that glistens with clarity.
Tracks include: Love Me Do, Carol, Soldier of Love, Lend Me
Your Comb, Clarabella (BBC), I Saw Her Standing There (Live at
Blokker-Holland), Hello Goodbye (Takes 1, 2), I Am The Walrus,
What's The New Mary Jane, I Want You, Think For Yourself (Studio
Chat)..
More Masters (Vol
1) (Roaring Mouse)
- 4th issue of the "Barrett"
tapes
from different sources
than from most available compilations.
Comment from a fan: I love this disk. I've heard many
takes of all these songs but Roaring Mouse has given this title
that little something extra that makes it really stand out. The
stereo version of Mr. Moonlight
is my favorite but the Penny Lane songs are a close second.
Thanks so much!

The legendary "Get Back" radio broadcast as heard
on WBCN FM
Boston, Massachusetts (September 22, 1969)
One of the best
"Get Back"
era outtake disks ever. Comment from a fan:
The most intriguing aspect of this disk is the excitement
generated by the DJ while playing this "unheard album" for the
first time ever. You really have to applaud the station for
allowing this because at the time "bootlegs" were a new and
arriving phenomena
that the music industry couldn't quite pin point. Alas, outtakes
have endured to this day.
Primal Colours
-
Still on "the 910"'s "Core
Collection" list and rightfully so. Originals from Japan are
very pricy but
well worth it. Several tracks have
longer intros and outro material. The sound quality is
superior to other sources for the same material.
Good
stuff
indeed!
Tracks:
Brian Epstein Blues (Outtake), Back In The USSR, A Case Of The
Blues (Acoustic Demo), Blackbird, Piggies, Birthday, Yer Blues,
Mother Nature's Son,. Everybody's Got Something To Hide Except
Me And My Monkey, Child Of Nature, Helter Skelter, Junk, Honey
Pie, Old Brown Shoe.
Psychedelic Years
(1966-1968)(LSD)(3CD) - Comment from a fan:
If you're a fan of The Beatles most beloved album
Sgt Pepper then you're in for a
special treat. These

discs encompass the most
complete
set of Pepper outtakes known to exist. Others have come close
but these are for real. Thanks bros for having it.

great Beatle songs - "Strawberry Fields
Forever" and "Penny Lane".
This set is a landmark collection of "Strawberry Fields"
outtakes listed in chronological order that gives the listener
insight into the evolution of this masterpiece. The song comes
to life over the course of Lennon's
Santa Isabella Demos, followed by his follow-up
Kenwood Demos, and finally
in the studio at EMI. Hear

Strong Before Our Birth
(Purple Chick) (2CD) - Review:
Another new 2007 offering from the folks at Purple Chick. This 2-disc set highlights the beginning (before EMI contract) of the Beatles in 1957-1962.
The best sources were used in compiling home recordings and the Cavern Club rehearsals.

Studio Sessions
(Tobe Milo
corrected)
-
Historic document,
preserved in stereo! Turn it on, close your eyes and pretend
you're in the control room! It just might work. Fabulous and
expert precision is what the Milo disk is all about. The Beatles
sound like they are in the same room as the listener. You can't
go wrong here.
The Abbey Road Tape Vol.
1 -
This collection has some extra bits not found in any Barrett
remixes. The sound is not "cleaned up" and is just how the tape
source originally sounded - excellent!
Track 1 from this compilation
''She Loves You '' contains two attempts to remix a
mono master tape into stereo, as you will hear from the results,
the second was never used. Track 2
''This Boy'' was remixed for
stereo in 1966 from take 15, here we have the complete recording
of that day's remix, including a couple of seconds of the
original '63 sessions pre-song chatter. This source contains
some unidentified studio noise just before the track begins. The
late engineer John Barrett left us his legacy and this set is no
exception to his stellar reputation. This is a must have - gotta
hear collection!
The Alternate A Hard Day's Night -
The new
and improved edition of Pear's

Comment
from a fan:
Ah,
the Past Masters collection by Pear Records; I may never listen
to the official release again. I've been an avid collector of
The Beatles for years and can honestly say "I love this deluxe
set". Disk #1 contains the 18 alternate lp tunes along with
several alternate lp tracks. Pears decision to include the 5
live versions is an added bonus.

advertisement" tracks are also included. If you want to hear
John and Yoko, then you're in for a treat.
Volume 14
is nothing but the couple laying down some outtakes, demos and
rare interviews. Volume 15
is another treat, 39 tracks of "solo Beatles material as
captured from various promo releases. Over
320 tracks.
The Beatles
Complete..Silent
Sea's
Extraordinary
set in all its
Glory!
Review:
In the history of recorded music and well before others entered
into the realm of outtake recordings,
Silent Sea reigned supreme in
their commanding presence of the availability of truly
remarkable rarities. Many years have come and the demand for
these priceless sounds have grown. Collectors love the unheard
gems that would forever be lost had it not been for the many
publishers of these titles, in particular
Silent Sea.
The following 10 volumes
are a masterpiece in themselves and trace the Beatles throughout
the "Days in their Lives". Enjoy.

The Black Album (2CD) -
Excellent insight into the
true talent of the Beatles. Some studio feedback and engineers
cues are often heard but enlighten the listening experience.
This 2 disk set is for Beatles fans that want to listen in on
some of the studio magic during the Get Back era recording
sessions.
The Bootleg Zone Auction
Tape
(Re-mastered Edition)

Comment
from BZ:
Here is a real treat. Some people
from Bootleg Zone got together to bid on an original tape of The
Beatles at Shea Stadium. Unfortunately, we lost that bid but
instead we were successful in bidding on this tape, presented
here for the first time publicly. What we have here is a session
tape of Cilla Black & Paul McCartney running through
"Step Inside Love" under the direction of George Martin.
The tape is unedited and unaltered. The sound is a little
muffled The tape runs 24:48.
As
a bonus there are three more interesting tracks. First is a tape
with John playing guitar and singing with Yoko's daughter Kyoko.
Second, a John Lennon demo tape featuring "God", "Yoko Ono Poem
Game", "When A Boy Meets A Girl" and "Well, Well, Well". Third,
there is a great sounding mix of the Beatles "Ain't She Sweet"
(recorded in 1962 during the Tony Sheridan sessions) which has a
much fuller and more contemporary sound than any version out
there.
The
Complete Songs
The Beatles Gave Away
(8CD)
- Comment from liner notes: This
compilation is probably the most complete set of "Songs Given
Away". The tracks included here not only include song's not
recorded commercially by the Beatles but also officially
sanctioned cover's of their own material often produced by
George Martin or one of the Beatles themselves. There is one
exception. No tracks given away to other Beatles (i.e. from
Paul to Ringo) have been included, only those given to people
outside the Beatles.
Unlike the British Compilation "Songs Lennon and McCartney
Gave Away" and most bootleg compilations this set contains
the best available versions
of each track. The majority of these tracks appeared on the
original compilation in mono. In this case I have attempted to
use as many Stereo versions as possible (Some of which have
never been released in Great Britain). Most tracks are taken
from Digital sources although there are a few tracks that
originate from vinyl or flexi disc, it therefore may be possible
to hear some residual background noise.
200
tracks.

The
John Barrett Cassette Dubs (6CD) -
Comment
from a fan:
The most complete
collection of the
famed
John
Barrett working tapes. I couldn't believe I found this set but I
guess anything's possible. If you want the most in-depth
outtakes from the man who was there with the fabs, then this set
will take you to another place in time. Thanks so much!
Over 100 glorious tracks including Outtakes, demos, stereo
mixes, mono mixes and many more surprises.
The Lost
Pepperland
Reel and Other Rarities - Comments:
Tracks 1-9: Mono duplicate
masters made for producers of the "Yellow Submarine" film, with
many alternate versions, made on 1 Nov 1967.
Tracks 10-20: Bonus
rarities, including "work tapes" John made for composing
purposes.
The River Rhine Tapes
(3CD)
- Comment
from a fan:
Amazingly, I was able to hear songs that I completely
wasn't aware of when I listened to
30 Days or A/B Road
on account of all the in between studio chatter and other
distractions. I really liked the January sessions but the
River Rhine collection cuts to the chase and gives you just
the songs
without all the interruptions. A fantastic and well put together
set. Highly recommended!
