Re: Industry Researcher Has Never Seen So Many Disc Releases — the Majority Bootlegs

...take me back to the past for an hour, and leave me alone. So true! Erasing the physical object also effectively erases history, and our connection to the generations who originally enjoyed (and in many cases) produced the music we're listening to. Streaming has no identity. No history. It's the ...

Re: Magical Mystery Tour Location Question

Excellent work! It's a shame the other MMT thread seems to indicate that the outtakes we currently have is the full extent of what still exists. I don't believe that. Ron Furmanek found all of the rushes, and Apple owns them now. Given that RevolverTV offered some otherwise unavailable (and upgrade...

Re: Big Night Out remastered... and we missed it!!

Network going out of business is such a tragedy - they put out so many great old British TV shows, including "The Prisoner" and all those Gerry Anderson series, not to mention a ton of obscurities, musicals, and obscure Hitchcock films. There was no one else doing this, and no one likely t...

Re: Instrumental Mother Take 64

This comes from BARC [Beatles Archive] 91 - one of the tapes sent to the Lost Lennon Tapes people.
It contained:

1. I Found Out (take 3)
2. Well Well Well (take 4)
3. Working Class Hero (take 9)
4. Mother (take 64) (backing track)

Re: Get Back Glyn Johns 1st acetate source?

Yellow Dog's issue of the WBCN tape is inferior to the original "Posters, Incense and Strobe Candles" CD, issued by Vigotone in 1993. And, while that disc is still enjoyable as an artifact, it was surpassed by Idle Mind's "Off Elektra Acetate" CD in 2012. Helter Skelter took some...

Re: NEW Beatle track How it was made possible

Not The Beatles. Just an incredible simulation.
Actually, not even an incredible simulation.

I'm waiting for an article titled "How AI Made "Free as a Bird" and "Real Love" NOT suck."
That might be interesting.

Re: Has anyone heard the Cavern ‘Misery’ recording from Evolver 63 yet?

I'm trying to imagine the catastrophic political consequences and irreversible climate damage that would result if Apple just put the full thing up on the Beatles site as a stream and said, "Hey, thanks for being fans and buying all our expensive box sets. Here's a nice memento of 1963." ...

Well, no... there is my board, The 910, which celebrated its 17th birthday yesterday. It's not dedicated to bootlegs, but there's plenty of discussion of them there.
