Finally found a super rare Stereo LP Beatlemania! With The Beatles Capitol re-issue from the 80's. Best sounding LP out there. **** Here is a great review regarding this LP, and a great site to lean about the Beatles LPs in Canada www.capitol6000.com/fave2.html

This is basically my Beatles music collection pared down, since all my music is now on iTunes. 1) Original U.K. mono Parlophone & Stereo Apple LP's stored in my black (2012 Stereo re-issue LP set that I sold) 2) 2009 Stereo CD set in white Beatles crate. (Currently looking to swap for mono set) Magical Mystery Tour E.P. (mini CD). I am looking to sell this too, as it does not fit in the CD crate. And finally a quick pic of my Original UK LP's. (I will try to take better pics)

Nice collection! Some misc. stuff; The insert that came with the American RED and BLUE albums. Notice what albums it says those songs are from; Ever wonder what the 4 photos in the Japanese pressing of the white album look like? Well, wonder no more; ....AND one of the worst interview records ever. recorded at a time when the boys were sick of press conferences. Ho-hum. However, this does contain the famous 'songs about lesbians and queers' answer.

That's really nice. I would covet that for sure. Same with Bongo's boxes. Some more interview stuff: And the complimentary books that came out around the same time as the film. All the sheet music and various essays.

I know it's been super ceded by the Anthology but there is something very compelling about it and it's very well put together. One thing I don't understand is how it got permission to use official Beatles tracks. There's absolutely loads of documentaries out there but none of them have official Beatles tracks. I assume a DVD release is being prevented because of these legal shenanigans.

You guys have some really neat stuff! I'm envious! Makes me want to hunt for something really 'rare' now!lol I have the little Magical Mystery Tour fold out with the two e.p. singles and booklet attached. It was later issued as a box with a booklet. And the Lennon single 'Mother' with the picture sleeve which is kinda rare. I also have this, not a Beatles cd, but still pretty neat. www.rarebeatles.com/photopg3/apcdepf.jpg**Trivia Time Beatle mates: Guess who took the pic of the Beatles out in that field in Bongos second t-shirt? (I also read that Paul had a gun aimed at Lennon.) Wasn't that the last pic of the Beatles ever taken together?

Those are nice! shirts Bongo. I especially like the Rubber Soul and Titenhurst park one. Ethan Russel was the photog? I also envy that 'From Liverpool' box set Mr M. I have it on mp3 with all the specific mixes and sounds unique to that set. !0 years before it was fashionable to put out 4 CD retrospective box sets like Led Zep etc.... The British Are Coming. Is that a boot? I think I've seen one before but not a pic disc. Hey, I have this one too!; When the UK got their rarities in '78, somebody had the idea to boot a version for the US. Printed and pressed with a capitol label on it but NOT official. Capitol finally gave us our Rarities in 1980. One of the many many many repackagings of the Tony Sheridan stuff. One of the many many many repackagings of the Star Club stuff.

Don't worry about that Sinatra one sider. So much neato nifty stuff. Just don't have the money to go looking for all the stuff I don't have. DANG. Yet ANOTHER variation on the Star Club tapes. A bit of false advertising. Trying to indicate that these are club recordings with Pete Best. My Canadian LPs. One from the '60's, on from the '70's and one from the '80's.

I love that clock. Where did you get that? And WHY is there only 'John Lennons' on any of those album covers on the clock?And it's funny how I have other Star Club variations but not the original first appearance of the material. I always wanted to get that too. Here's some misc. stuff. Albums with original inserts, etc..

When I bought my With The Beatles LP, it came with 2 LP's (not sure why), so I used one as a clock. I just printed the album covers from Google and glued them on a cheap dollar store clock. It wasn't until afterwards that I realized they were all John pictures, so I just left it that way! www.zmemusic.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/11/beatles-discography.jpg
