Question
achtung.. is it possible that any of the Beatles acetate recordings will be issued in some package.
 Some of the acetate disks have diffeent mixes, timings, endings than the ersions on any of the three Anthologies.

Answer
Hi Johnny!

Right now, there are multiple bootleg albums loaded with Beatles acetates. I suggest going to BootlegZone (www.bootlegzone.com) and look for people on there who have them and are willing to trade you for something you may have. You can't actually download from there, it's strictly for networking purposes. They're not difficult to obtain if you look hard enough. There were a few also included on the Beatles Anthology set as you know. At this time, I'm not aware of any "official" release plans for the acetates, but I'd love to see it happen too. Thanks for the question!

Peace,
Pattie

While I have no degree in "Beatleology", I probably could write a course on it!
