"….well
she was standing at the station, with a bootleg in her hand"
I’m sure when Paul McCartney wrote those words (Hi Hi Hi)
he was hinting at how common bootlegs were, even in 1972.
Being for the benefit of bootleg collectors ‘The Beatles
Unreleased Recordings CANCELLED!’ by Mr. Kite is the definitive
collection of almost every Beatles bootleg album available on
vinyl.
The book contains 1,088 different albums listed alphabetically
and gives a complete track listing of each and includes photos
more than 600 of them.
An excellent Song Indexis included, making it very easy to locate
what albums each track is available on and one song that caught
my attention was ‘When it gets to Suzie Parker everybody
gets well done’.
As well as all the regular ‘live’ albums available,
this book lists live recordings from Tokyo, Munich, Rome, Australia
and even the Candlestick Park.
If you’re a serious collector of bootlegs this book is a
must. You may think you have them all - just look at this book.
From an Irish angle there’s three songs of significance
on various albums ‘Give Ireland back to the Irish’,
‘The luck of the Irish’ and ‘When Irish eyes
are smiling’.
