The Beatles Bootleg Recordings 1963 is a compilation album of 59 previously unreleased recordings by English rock band the Beatles, released on 17 December 2013, exclusively through the iTunes Store. [1] While it was initially only available for a few hours, [2] it later became available again for purchase. [3][ better source needed] The release was timed to extend the copyright of the 1963 recordings under EU law by 20 years – the EU protects recordings for 70 years only if they are formally released. [1] [4]
The album includes 15 studio outtakes and 42 live BBC Radio tracks, adding to those released previously on the albums Live at the BBC (1994) and On Air – Live at the BBC Volume 2 (2013). [5] The album also includes John Lennon's demo recordings of " Bad to Me" and " I'm in Love", later released as singles by Billy J. Kramer and the Dakotas and the Fourmost, respectively. [1]
Tracks 1–14 are stereo; the rest are mono.
All tracks are written by Lennon–McCartney, except where noted
