COMMENTS
 This LP is another collection of rare versions of Beatles' songs dubbed from various legitimate releases.
Its one true is "I Am The Walrus", which presents only the four Beatles playing in the studio, sans overdubs and sound effects.
This was first released as a picture disk with the "butcher cover" photo on side-1 and liner notes and snapshots (similar in style to "The Beatles Rarities (U.S. Capitol SHAL 12060)" on side-2.
It is presented as a promotional issue, although its serial number is similar to that of the legitimate Capitol picture disks. Later pressings of this disk were conventional issues on black vinyl.
Back of LP cover reads "For promotional use only" and "Not for sale".

COMMENTS
 The folks at NEMS Records took great care in bringing collectors an enjoyable product and one with at least a few unreleased goodies. This record has a bit of everything, but the stand out tracks are "Yes It Is" and "Paperback Writer" which are thought to be from the 1976 Heineken cassette which offered these two songs in stereo. "Birthday" is most likely an 'outtake'.

COMMENTS
 This collection of studio material recorded during the making of the "Abbey Road" LP and the "LET IT BE" sessions features a cover photograph of the Beatles crossing Abbey Road.
Three things make the photo interesting;
  • the Beatles are walking across the LP cover from right to left
  • Paul is wearing sandals
  • the photograph was later used on the cover of the HMV "ABBEY ROAD" Compact Disc box in England.
