The Beatles Alternate Versions are 2 collections of alternate takes and unreleased songs. These discs offer some of the the best alternate and unreleased studio-outtakes currently available, by stroke of luck, on the underground Beatles-market. In most cases these are early takes, copied directly from the multi-track master-tapes. That means that the sound of many of the tracks presented here even surpasses that of the 'official' Beatles-releases. This set was designed to provide listening pleasure also for the more 'casual' Beatles fan. Below are the included tracks by volume:
