Description
This is an amazing, rare collection of Beatles songs!! In January 1973, two bootleg Beatles box sets appeared in the United States, Alpha Omega Volumes I & II: The Story Of The Beatles (Audio Tape Inc. ATRBH 3583). These 4-LP collections were advertised on TV and radio stations in the Midwest and were sold by mail order. Instead of taking legal action, Capitol Records countered by putting out two official Beatles anthologies, The Beatles 1962-1966 (US: Apple SKBO 3403) and The Beatles 1967-1970 (US: Apple SKBO 3404). However, in March, a $15 million lawsuit was filed by manager Allen Klein on behalf of George Harrison, along with Capitol and Apple Records, against the manufacturers and distributors of the bootleg package, and against American Broadcasting Companies, Inc., who had been advertising it. The vinyl is absolutely perfect, and has been play-graded. I'm not even certain these were ever played, other than us, to check it out! The box, however, is pretty blown out, with all 4 corners on the top being blown out. The bottom is marginally better, but in good enough shape to keep the records inside. This is an awesome chance to get a piece of true history, and one that very few will ever experiance!
