Beatles Bootlegs (Beatlegs!)

Following on from last week’s pirate radio edition of Fixing A Hole we carry on with the pirate theme. Looking into the under the counter world of Beatles bootlegs. We trace the origins of these Illegal releases in the late 60’s with the infamous Bob Dylan boot  ‘Great White Wonder’ and the plethora of low-fi compilations of Beatles concerts, radio and television appearances which began to surface in the early 70’s. Through to the CD age and the arrival of Ultra Rare Trax which presented unreleased Beatles session recordings in wonderful sound quality. Along the way we discuss the sources of these recordings and what influence these albums had on Apples official Anthology series in the mid 90’s.Welcome to the wonderful world of Beatlegs! P.S. If you spot the mistake about Mal Evans early in this edition drop us a line via the email below. Unfortunately there is no prize, but we would love to hear from you. If you’re a fan of the podcast we’d love to hear from you.Please get in touch via:Facebook: Fixing A Hole https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61562724166069Email: [email protected]
