Disco de The Beatles: “Rare Photos & Interview CD, Vol. 1”

Like the original pressing of double-LP

(1968), copies of THE BEATLES RARE PHOTOS & INTERVIEW CD are numbered. Mine is #258528. Issued in 1995 by British label MasterTone Multimedia.

Storage case is a tri-fold heavy paper jacket with two inside snapshots of the casually dressed band's Miami Ed Sullivan Show rehearsal. The disc itself has a photo of Ringo from this same session.

The 24-page booklet is filled with b&w pictures of the Fabs' first American tour. Both Sullivan appearances are here as are scenes of Central Park, one of DJ Murray the K and another of the guys on a yacht.

Audio quality of disc is typically lo-fi, but most tracks are listenable.
