TORRENT SUMMARY
Status:
All the torrents in this section have been verified by our verification system
'The Lost Album' was born from the idea of gathering for the first time all the Beatles unreleased compositions, performed by themselves, as well as cover versions that were not included in any official album.
Many of these tracks come from demos, home recordings, rehearsals, etc, so the original quality is low. In this album we try to improve the audio quality as much as possible, recovering audio drops, fixing technical problems, recording failures and so on.
Software tools have been used to clean, remaster and enhance the tracks, without ever losing the fidelity of their originals. Short and unfinished songs were sewn into each other, with soft transitions, resulting in a more consistent track.
The overdubs and collages used were extracted from original Beatles material.
Notes 1:
Eight-CD box set compilation of Beatles unreleased tracks. (Never released in any studio album*(1) or as singles*(2)).
All tracks (*3) are from the Beatles activity period: 1958 to 1969 / plus Anthology sessions: 1994/95.
