A Blast from the Past!!!;
DOCUMENTS VOL.1,2 and 3




This is a golden Oldie set . In 1989 several bootleggers came with new interesting new unreleased Beatles material, amongst them Swinging Pig records and Yellow Dog (Unsurpassed Masters serie). Another contender was Document Records,they came with this "Documents"Serie. It became a nice set , and though not as good as the Yellow Dog set, the sound is mostly good.You'll find Remixes,Outtakes, Jam sessions, alternative versions,spanning the years 1962 to 1969,from classic albums as; Abbey Road/Sgt.Pepper/ Rubber Soul/ Revolver/ Beatles for Sale/White album. If You don't own the unsurpassed masters CDs, this is a nice alternative!
