Yes, the beatleg artwork was always way more attractive than the official compilations. The Beatles were four of the most photogenic people in history... literally all you needed to do was slap some nice photos together with some text and you had a great eye catching album cover. But this simple tr...

Nice cover though. I agree - a real selling point for me. I'm a sucker for the pastiche 'official' album artwork that bootleggers began to adopt in the late 70s/ early 80s. I drooled over many an LP in dealers' racks during the 80s, unable (or unwilling) to commit my hard-earned £10-15, and 'Youngb...

A few years ago some outtakes from the official album surfaced. Not whole sets by the bands, but a few extra songs from each. You can sample them on you tube in rather poor, squelchy sound, but they do exist in better quality and can probably be downloaded elsewhere: hxxps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=...

Being the most recent release, I assume the HMC package is the best version of both video and audio for the show. Can anyone confirm?

I've only just realised from the images on the discogs entry for the 2LP set, that the inner gatefold is a nice pastiche of the White Album inner layout

I really enjoyed the 'bonus content' Yellow Matter Custard video. I fired it up to have a quick glance, and ended up watching the whole thing. Right down to the end credits, which are well worth a look :mrgreen: Those vintage pics and the audio selection are just so engrossing - a lot of photos I'd ...

Re. Vol20 - that's fantastic, hearing the Kenny Everett quip about the transport minister's wife that got him sacked!
I've known the tale for years, but never knew it was still on tape or that I would ever hear it.
Now that's magic!

The Beatles with Harry.

I Sea(combe) what you did there

when did brits finally get to see the sullivan show performances? I can’t remember seeing them before buying the Anthology VHS and “The First US Visit” DVD. It’s possible that the occasional clip might have been shown on TV before this, but there was no official, “well, here it is…” unveiling. Eith...

I'm a fan too and retain them when I can - if they're on shrinkwrapped CDs I'll snip round the wrap and keep it inside the CD lid.... with shrinkwrapped LPs I'll just slice down the side of the cover if it's a single sleeve, for gatefolds I'll still try and keep the shrink even though they get wrink...
