This is an update of Volume 12. I have added what is probably a BBC tv interview from February 5th when they returned from Paris. I don't think this was ITV because we have that interview and it is different. Not sure who the interviewer is.
Also added is Ringo reading some credits in the Public Ear. I also have removed the spurious traces of "Can't Buy Me Love" playing in the background during Paul's bit.
The Pick Of the Pops at the start is a bit longer. The front cover is also updated.

Re: Harry And His Box Set (V1, 2, 7, 10, 12 update.)
Thanks! I do feel slightly silly about re-upping a whole volume just to add a couple of minutes. But I guess all things being equal people would rather have the extra bits even if it is inconvenient. And when i find something like those few extra words from Ringo that I had no clue existed, or George's joke about "Are you waiting for this bus too?" I get a little nerdy thrill. I've never had much interest in The Beatles telling their story after it all had happened, but listening to them react at the time about their Paris trip or New York is fascinating. You can really hear how amazed they were.
Well I kind of feel like the whole set is a book. You need everything... the music, the videos, the photos, the interviews and the facts to understand the story. Besides, there's three books by Kevin Howlett which are all great (although my favourite is the second).
Everybody should have a BBC tie. Here's an interesting piece of trivia though: despite the incredible pre-war stuffiness and beaurocracy of the BBC, everybody called each other by their first names. Thus even if you were a humble engineer, you adressed the head of the Variety department as "Jim". That was totally unheard of in those days and unique to the BBC!
