From the heyday of 1970s “Beatlegs,” here’s a vintage copy of the unofficial Beatles LP John, Paul, George & Jimmy. This one includes live tracks from Copenhagen with drummer Jimmy Nicol filling in for Ringo. Issued in the typical plain white cover with insert (insert on this one is glued on sideways - its bottom is on what is normally the right side of the cover where the record is inserted. The plain white is shrink wrapped (fully intact).
This one was released by Wizardo Records, one of the more active and better-known companies producing Beatles boots back in the day. It has the standard generic Wizardo label with no song titles listed (as was the case with most of these early LPs).Condition of the vinyl is NM (Near Mint). I think I only played this one once - the sound quality was lower than even most of the other titles back then.
The insert is NM, and the generic white cover has held up well, having been protected by the shrink wrap all these years.*** Please keep in mind that this is NOT a studio quality recording, even by 70s standards - none of these unofficial releases were. It’s pretty much a collectors period piece. If you weren’t around back then, it’s probably hard to imagine how excited Beatles collectors like myself got, every time we picked a new one and were able to hear something beyond the official releases. If you were,then you know what I mean.
The final pic shows all available details on this LP from reference books on Beatles boots: You Can’t Do That (Charles Reinhart, 1981); Do You Want To Know A Secret & Fixing A Hole (L.R.E. King, 1988 & 1989); Black Market Beatles (Jim Berkenstadt & Belmo, 1995); and The Beatles Not For Sale (Belmo, 1997).**********************************
