Description

  

Back in 1981, World Records, EMI's mail order division put together a boxed set of eight newly compiled Beatles albums. 

The set was advertised vigourously in the national press from 5th November 1980 through into 1981. This means it was at the forefront right across the period of John's murder, and therefore sales must have been quite good, but as this box set was sold only by mail order the figures did not qualify for chart entry, and consequently are not publicly known.

All the songs throughout the eight albums are arranged chronologically, and the covers reflect this, in that each has a picture from the appropriate period on the front, and a well-written biography of the period by Hugh Marshall on the rear.

The Box itself is well designed looking like a wooden crate, with plenty of information and originally sold for £29:75.

And Simon Sinclair who compiled these albums seems to have known what he was doing, because he has sprinkled the albums with some interesting variations from the regular versions of the songs.

A great quality collection of LP's for any Beatles fan. The rare tracks make it a must-have for collectors.

The records are unplayed box has a little bit of wear.

Please see photos.

Any questions please ask.
