The Beatles - ‘Lost In Pepperland’ CD

The Beatles 'Lost In Pepperland' bootleg CD. A superb and huge 32 track CD which brings together a collection of rarities from from arguably The Beatles most creative and experimental era - the psychedelic days of 1967 into early 1968.

In general ‘Lost in Pepperland’ tries to focus on the glorious year of 1967. But, with some of these tracks to a great extent not a huge amount is known with 100% certainty regarding the correct recording dates - 1967 or 1968. This is due to them being little known demo pieces or experimental music in the same vein as ’Strawberry Fields Forever’.

Much of the content is from the magnificent ’Sgt Pepper’ sessions and ‘Magical Mystery Tour’ era. Briefly we have - demo’s, unreleased tracks, extended unreleased mixes (extra verses, sound FX), rare mixes and a large selection of John Lennon experimental pieces plus more.

If you love the ’Sgt Pepper’ / ‘Strawberry Fields Forever’ era this IS for you. A real hardcore collection here with stays away from the much more common bootleged tracks of this era. Experimental, psychedelic and just bonkers at times. I LOVE IT!

As the versions included here are unreleased the CD package is designed to look like a acetate copy of the album. Complete with Richard Avedon psychedelic poster prints. All in perfect MINT condition.

The package includes:

• Cover with sleeve notes on the back. 

• Accurate reproduction Emidisc acetate CD label design.

• 4 Richard Avedon psychedelic mini glossy poster prints  the song).

• Back cover with track listing, recording details, track notes and track timing.
