From WogBlog:
Bootleg Recordings 1964 coming
Universal Music Canada supposedly confirmed that a release is forthcoming. Like last year’s Bootleg Recordings 1963, the new Beatles release is going to be a digital only, quiet release. We are hoping that a number of concert performances from 1964 will be included.
Mods: Should we keep posting here on this topic, or start a new thread?

I started a new thread for this album, and moved a couple of posts over to it. Makes sense to keep it separated from the 1963 one.

Offline I now have little doubt this will happen. The Beach Boys have already released two digital sets (studio and live), Dylan’s (unconfirmed release) this year will be a 9-LP vinyl set (limited to 1000 copies). The word is creeping out on this year’s batch. Universal and Apple are still saying “no current plans”, but they didn’t really say anything else last year. The question is whether they will allow unreleased 1964 recordings to slip out of copyright, especially given there are some very good 1964 live performances in existence. Are they really going to allow the best of those to start appearing legally next year?
To me, all that remains is whether they will go last year’s route of digital-only release, or if they will switch to Bob’s approach of a limited-edition physical release.

Offline The issue Apple have is that there is a high number of very good quality concerts, BBC tracks and studio outtakes circulating freely which havent been released. It would only make sense to put it all out and keep the copyright but going by last years collection which had large gaps i cant see that happening.
I think whats out of copyright is in the below list (in the spoiler to save folk loading space), apologies for any omissions/errors.
Outtakes
‘I’m A Loser ‘ takes 1 – 8
‘A Hard Day’s Night ‘ takes 2 – 9 (take 1 is on ‘Anthology 1 ‘)
‘She’s A Woman ‘ takes 1 – 6 (the take which is announced as “take 5 is it? take 7” is in fact take 6, George M got lost)
‘Can’t Buy Me Love ‘ takes 1, 2 (guitar solo only), 3 (all bar the guitar solo), take 4 (announcement only)
‘What You’re Doing ‘ take 11
‘I Feel Fine ‘ takes 1, 2, 5, 6, 7, 8
Demo’s
One And One Is Two
If I Fell (demo takes 1 – 5)
World Without Love
Live in Concert/TV
Not sure about how video releases come into this and if it counts if they have been shown in other countries or incomplete (some are in the Anthology series but incomplete) but we have tracks from

Hopefully they will mess the price up again this year – I nabbed the last lot for AU$15.49 before they fixed their error.

Regardless of how it comes out it will be available if you know where to go or someone who knows where to go.
Apple love our money so i’m expecting the same as last year, and since it is Apple there will probably be some cock-up in how they get it out. It wouldn’t be Apple if there wasn’t.

What’s that you say? Beatles songs available to be used legally by anyone for anything? 
That could be useful for people making movies… Does that also mean they could be sampled without permission in songs that would be for sale? What exactly can be done with this material, anything correct?
The words Beatles and no copyright together are making this harder to comprehend… I was pretty sure I understood copyrights.

The individual songs together are going to cost just as much (and probably more) as buying the full album.
Yes, that’s exactly what I mean. I’m not beating myself up over it because
a) Paul and Ringo are seeing very little of whatever money gets paid for this thing. It’s purely Apple.
b) I’ve legally purchased a million different Beatles and solo McCartney, Lennon, Harrison, and Starr releases, including the already ridiculously priced Bootleg release from last year.

Offline If you added up the cost of all the Beatles products you’d bought over the years you’d weep for days at the amount as Apple charge full wack for everything. I’m not saying it gives us license to get everything thru other means but personally i believe it gives us a little wiggle room with the items where they go beyond top price and are just taking the piss.
And charging £35 for a iTunes download which would fit on 3 cds and should have cost £20 maximum (which is the price now) was taking the piss.

Offline Doesnt look like it but you never know.
My amazement for just how inept Apple are if they dont release something covering this material will be higher than ever before. I dont get why they would rather do nothing and lose it all than employ 2 people with knowledge on what is out there to put together an all inclusive release so it remains Apples. Compile it (lists are out there to help them if they dont have a clue), release it, charge a sensible price for it, make some money from it, keep the copyright – its the most basic stuff for any record company. Yet somehow Apple managed to f**k it up last year.
Apple’s incompetence really annoys me. And even f*****g worse is they will have 10 workers sitting around dreaming up ideas for the next piece of shitty merchandise they can license for a tidy profit. It will always irk me that they cancelled a ‘White Album Anniversary Box Set’ and instead gave us a £200 limited edition pen. Woo f*****g hoo.
No one is going to hear take 2 of ‘A Hard Day’s Night ‘ and take 5 of ‘I Feel Fine ‘ and think “Yeah they released ‘Revolver ‘ but after hearing these outtakes the Beatles were actually pretty s**t”.

Offline Apple has had a long time history of releasing commercialized crap, and it’s gotten to the point where I don’t give a crap about what “special releases” of the SAME DAMN SONGS that Apple is coming out with. Don’t pay them any mind. I don’t. All that John, Paul, George, and Ringo wanted to do when they started out was just make music, and that’s all there is to it. It’s gotten them in all of this legal crap that I can’t comprehend. So all those that hate Apple and their “special releases” just don’t pay them the least bit of attention.
By hook or by crook, I'll be last in this book.

Offline The way I see it:
1) This is a lost opportunity for a complete 1964 Hollywood Bowl release.
2) According to EU copyright law, in the EU they can now have a bootleg free-for-all and Apple can’t do diddly about it…BRING IT ON!!!!
3) Those of you who think $39.99 was too much for the 1963 set….first of all, it’s down ten bucks now…second, and more importantly, those of you who think it’s too much, did you think it was too much twenty years ago when you plopped down $25 – $30 per disc for a Yellow Dog or Vigotone CD? The 1963 set was, first of all, legit, and the profits (theoretically, at least) go to those who have the right to claim them. And, at least to my ears, the sound quality of the studio outtakes in that set was noticeably superior to that of the aforementioned Yellow Dog stuff — which twenty years ago I didn’t think would be possible. (And this is even using a LOSSY compression scheme, mind you.) Man…those were the days, though…when a Yellow Dog or Vigotone or Midnight Beat release meant something exciting — you were getting to hear stuff you never would have heard otherwise…(lately what’s been coming out has been mostly Rock Band extractions or sonic upgrades for concerts and stuff like that)…and those of us who traded/bought these black market releases all had an understanding: if this stuff ever came out legitimately, we would absolutely legitimately purchase it as soon as it was available. So far I’ve held up my end of the bargain, with the BBC stuff, Anthology, BBR63, The Smile Sessions, The Pet Sounds Sessions, etc.
