Sound quality is pretty rough. I assume since they came from the radio they were originally done through a sound board, but it sounds like the tapes were sitting on some shelves for a very long time. There’s lots of static and tape noise on top of not very good volume control. Still, an interesting piece of history.

Excellent sound quality on this one. Its mostly Keith playing on the piano and singing. The later sessions include some guitar and backing vocals but its all pretty sparse. Ones opinion on it probably depends a lot of what you think of Keith’s singing voice, and the Stone’s ability to do ballads.

The Beatles – The Beatles Christmas Album

The Beatles Christmas Album

1. “The Beatles’ Christmas Record” – 5:08
2. “Another Beatles Christmas Record” – 4:02
3. “The Beatles’ Third Christmas Record” – 6:27
4. “The Beatles’ Fourth Christmas Record – Pantomime: Everywhere It’s Christmas” – 6:11
5. “Christmas Time is Here Again!” – 6:11
6. “The Beatles’ 1968 Christmas Record” – 7:53
7. “The Beatles’ Seventh Christmas Record” – 7:39

From Wikipedia:

Each year from 1963 to 1969, the Beatles had recorded a short Christmas message for their fans, composed of carols, skits, jokes, and thanks to the loyal “Beatle People”. Each recording was pressed onto a 7″ flexi disc and mailed free to the British members of the Fan Club. In 1970, in the wake of the band’s break-up, Apple released the compilation of all seven.

From me:

Tis a bit of fun listening to the Beatles carry on in that way of theirs, and it must have been amazing to receive the disks each year at the time. Mostly though, its pretty forgettable as its just the band cracking wise and goofing around.

Comments from thewho.net: “This is actually a pretty neat CD. KM continues his madcap spoofs we got a taste of on the ’30 Years Maximum R&B’ box set. These are, with the exception of Tommy’s Holiday Camp, all studio cuts and include some humorous band banter between the cuts. Melancholia is The Who’s version, different from PT’s ‘Scoop’ version. Tommy’s Holiday Camp is live from an unknown source but appears to be from from TKAA/Kilburn era judging from the sound. I Am The Sea/The Real Me is a Who version I’ve never heard before. It’s a bit slower and the brass in the background is more prominent than on any known demo version, PT’s guitar parts are also played differently than on any known versions. One Life’s Enough is a RD “crooner” that could’ve well fit well with either of his solo LP’s ‘Daltrey’ or ‘One Of The Boys.'”

I’ve been collecting bootlegs for nearly fifteen years now. Amazingly it was less than two years ago that I discovered bootleg blogs. In fact it was after I started my own version that I discovered others were doing the same thing. At first it was like discovering gold in your back yard. Then it was like going down a wormhole there were so many different blogs out there.

I downloaded everything. Constantly. Then I filled up my hard drive and realized I needed to stop. I very rarely download anything from a blog anymore. Not only was I running out of room but I knew I wanted to blog things that I had obtained from normal sources. What I mean is that I prefer to link to blogs that have interesting things and not upload them myself. That way I’m fostering the community and not stealing so to speak. Now of course stuff that I already have on disk, and stuff I get in torrents are still circulated in other blogs, but I’m at least not directly ripping them off.

Yes this also means that I rarely actually listen to the stuff I link too. I simply link what looks interesting and make no comment on the quality.

Anyways that being said today I have a couple of shows I downloaded from elsewhere. These didn’t come from blogs so I don’t feel like I’m intruding on somebody’s space. They were found in basically download areas, where someone has uploaded the shows to a site similar to Mediafire and then someone unrelated found the download.

I don’t know if any of that makes sense. I feel a kinship with the other bootleg blogs and I don’t want to upload stuff I downloaded from them, but in this case it didn’t come from a blog but rather a random site that isn’t updated regularly.

Anyways, enjoy the PJ.
