Beatles Bop - Hamburg Days

(2-CD set, not including the hardcover book that comes with the deluxe version) This set comes exactly 40 years after the Liverpool foursome (still without Ringo & billed as the Beat Brothers) issued their first recordings with Tony Sheridan. Legendary producer Bert Kaempfert recorded the now-famous songs, and they were released on Polydor. This set contains alternate versions & a wealth of mixes & variations that existed in several archives around the world. The booklet contains very rare documents, single picture sleeves & rare photos telling the story of these songs, and the four young men from Liverpool who would soon change the world. 38 tracks on two CDs (21 on the mono disc with the remainder in stereo on the second disc). Includes 100 page booklet in a standard double jewel case.
