Decca audition (1962)
The Beatles performed fifteen songs that were recorded at their audition for Decca Records on 1 January 1962 (three Lennon–McCartney compositions and twelve cover versions). Five of the songs were included on Anthology 1.
Fourteen of the fifteen tracks appeared on a series of coloured vinyl singles with picture sleeves, released in 1978 on the Deccagone label through Strawberry Fields Forever, Joe Pope's fanzine. The following year, all fifteen tracks appeared on the Circuit Records bootleg album The Decca Tapes.
Due to the questionable copyright status of these performances (recorded prior to the group's EMI contract), the Decca audition was commercially distributed in various configurations starting in 1981; some of these "grey market" albums omitted the three Lennon–McCartney songs. By the late 1980s, legal action by The Beatles had halted commercial availability of the albums. In addition to continued inclusion on bootlegs, a small US record label issued the songs on CD through mail order in 2007 as The Lost Decca Sessions, which it described as legal and licensed.

GRADING LEGEND:
Note: I do not grade anything as Mint, so a flawless, 'perfect' record will be graded as NM-.
NM- Like new, looks unplayed.
VG++: A few very faint surface marks, nothing that will affect play
VG+: A few more marks than a VG++. Used but not abused. Again, nothing that will affect play
VG: Light scuffs and light scratches, there will be light surface wear to the record. Expect some light surface noise in parts or a few clicks or pops here and there.
VG-: The record may have some scratches that will be deep enough to feel. Audible clicks and pops may be consistently present, but no skips.
G: A record that has been played and not taken care of. Constant background noise will be present.
