Comments:

An early CD Bootleg From A now well respected label but what a bad start , the first three titles being incorrectly mastered. These Titles were a joint release with Sphinx records and it has been suggested that the American East coast was covered by Yellow Dog and the West by Sphinx.

Several people refer to these mis-presses as Mono, which isn't strictly true with them being 1 channel in both tracks. The first three titles were reissued on Yellow Dog and I am unaware of any further involvement with Sphinx Records.

Whilst the reissue as been repeatedly copied and cloned, not surprisingly I'm not aware of any copies of these three titles.

Unfortunaltely whilst remastering the source tape Yellow Dog has deleted some material that was available in this mis-master.

1. Pauls Count in to Hello Goodbye is in one channel onn the miss press and very muffled and on the Unique Tracks edition is still very clear.

2. There are a collection of piano notes after Strawberry Fields Forever Take 7 only on the Unique Tracks Version in the tape run off.
