Australian Tour 1964: I actually heard this one a couple of times. Yes...another double CD with some interesting opening groups and if I recall, some arrival interviews. This was the gig where Ringo joined back with them after a brief respite. The set is great (during their 1st worlwide tour) with a some "Hard Day's Night" stuff. Any '64 concert date is usually pretty good as far as intensity goes. One of Fab's better live gigs. A'iiight mate? |

The Alternate Revolver: From the Walrus label. I thought this was a pretty good CD since it is fairly hard to find good Rubber Soul-Revolver material, much less in a single package per album. The highlights of their most experimental era are shown here in their different takes and outtakes. The best parts were the demo version of She Said, She Said, the vocal intro to Yellow Submarine and the alternate mixes of Tomorrow Never Knows. A first rate CD from this album many consider to be their best....and your bird can swing eh? |

Washington DC 1964/ Liverpool 1963: The 1st concert is their first really in the U.S. I find "She Loves You," "From Me To You," "Fom Me to You," and "I Saw Her..." exceptional. It captures the Fab on the buzz of their fame in the U.S. The Liverpool concert is a nice treat as well. The quality is not so good but I like this one because it includes some of their Star/Cavern Club setlists that weren't used a year later. |

Mythology Vol.1-3 (1962-1969): This is probably one of the most talked about releases amongst collectors. I think it came out in 1994 and it's been a bitch to find and even worse on the money clip. This 3 CD set features stuff from the Cavern-esque days, the Complete Sunday Night at the Palladium ('63 and '64), the complete Morcambe and Wise show, the complete Royal Command Performance, a Liverpool concert and some cool interviews. It might even have some Ed Sullivan in there (not sure). A collectors dream to receive a package that captures the birth of Beatlemania....SHHEEEET MAN....what more could you want? |

Another Sessions....Plus: Latest release fron the Vigotone label. This is the perfect compilation from John Barret. More studio gems from the vaults from Abbey Road. Haven't heard it yet, but collectors seem to be buzzing about it. One should check out the "Turn Me On..." CD. |

Unsurpassed Masters (Vols.1-7): For a while, this collection in the late 80's, early 90's was the most complete history of the Beatles one could reasonably get. I think #2 was my favorite. It had the most of that "Please Please Me" session. Also dug #4 which had the Strawberry outtakes (I think...it's been a while). Still around, a good investment nevertheless. Also the Ultra Rare Trax series that is a perfect accompaniment still exists. |

Pepperland: The most complete Sgt. Pepper double disc that you will find. This is my most recent purchase and it's excellent. It contains lots of outtakes from those sessions and clips even from the BBC promoting their album. There's also clips from George Martin seque on the "Making of Sgt. Pepper." Fascinating. On disc 2, their masterpiece album is presented in the mono mix, which many say is the definitive mix cuz the Fabs were actually present to oversee it as opposed to the stereo one. There is even tracks done after Pepper, like Only a Northern Song and the complete tape of "All You Need is Love" during the Our World show. If that weren't enough, there's also some Magical stuff as well. All in all, a must for collectors and it basically captures the lads in swinging 1967. Awesome.....they'd love to turn you on! |
