COMMENTS
Back in January 1982, this was an extremely interesting album, featuring many songs previously unreleased or only available in lesser quality. It also includes some tracks not featured in the later BEATLES AT THE BEEB LP series. This is the only album to present Ooh! My Soul in complete form before the CD releases.
It had a deluxe color cover with custom labels. Many copies were pressed, but all had the same layout. No pressings with different labels or counterfeits are known.
INTEREST. Indispensable when it was released, and of course to be included in any Beatles bootleg collection, it is still an enjoyable LP. Not rare in the market. ***
