Welcome to the forum subhajit_2k. Thanks for putting together the list, but we got one pinned at the top already. There are a few links I haven't seen, but most of the links on your list are already included there. It's time to update that list, so thanks for your contribution.

[subhajit_2k]

Thanks! I did see the original list on top but it was quite old so i thought i'd post my own. Maybe I should have taken off those links already on that list...
Anyway, hope each of those viewing the post is finding some good stuff to download that they didn't have.
Once again, feedback is VERY welcome, particularly on broken links. And please contribute your own. Let's build the best set of download links here.
Cheers!

[Uncle Albert]

I tried some links(not all of them actually) and I can tell you that...
http://d19.yousendit.com/E/12973MFHKAQMW0RJAY1SBQZAVY/Percy_mrlimbo.rar desn't work...
http://www2.udec.cl/~cdomarch/pepperland/pepperland.htm doesn't work
http://www.macca-l.org/macca-l/macca-l.net/private/ requires password!

[subhajit_2k]

Yes. I cleaned up the list further and the updated list is on my site: http://geocities.com/subhajit_2k/Links.htm.
As for Macca-l, you have to be a member (free) to access the archive.

[EasternBird]

Hey, thanks for listing my site first! :teeth1:

[subhajit_2k]

You're welcome!

Since New Year my WWW site will work more quickly and more reliably. Now you can try to visit the new address
http://beatlestrade.org.ua
in a mode of the test.

[carl harrison]

Found a site with some Beatlegs and official releases http://music.allofmp3.com/mp3/The_Beatles/group_4/albref_8/mcatalogshtm

[subhajit_2k]

Just to let everyone know that I've updated the bootleg links on my page http://geocities.com/subhajit_2k/Links.htm

[62hofner]

Just want to say "thanks" for listing these bootlegs sites. I have been downloading some great stuff lately.... most recently, mono and stereo versions of "Revolver" tracks. It's so cool to hear just how different these versions are.

Great to hear that. You can always get the latest/updated list from my site. And feel free to add any links you come across.

cheers!

[Legs]

Edited the original list, cause I've put up another file on my site.
I didn't go through all the sites, but a lot of them is not working anymore. Maybe it's best that I go to your site for the latest list, and do some refreshing here.

Sure, the latest is there. But I would also love to be able to update the list on top of this thread. Simple copy/paste from my site would work. Maybe you, with moderator privileges can help.

[Legs]

Mine is the Carrying Words one with the mono version of "Paperback Writer".

Unfortunately the way the forums are set is that you can't edit your posts afer a period of time. So I will have to copy/paste and update the list. Probably do so in the upcoming few days.

[Jerry]

Try editing the post. I noticed a few settings were wrong, and the moderator should be allowed to edit it now.

Great! Thanks Jerry.

Legs, I just updated my links page and added a few new ones. Feel free to...

26-02-07: Copied the recent list from subhajit's site.
A few good mp3 sites hidden between the outdated sites and dead links.

[FPSHOT]

The Mantra one... 3rd on the list... is gone I think..

This one here

http://beatlesnumber9.com/clips.html

has awesome material, like videos which run via Media Player and have a really good sound.

I was playing "All Things Must Pass" with John, Paul and Ringo on it as well and has a better sound that I have heard on some old bootlegs, even the harmonies sound nice now.

[Revolution1999]

Finally! I Found A Downloadable Verison Of The Beatles Cartoons!

[Trixdis]

Thank you. this thread was a big help.

Does Anyone Have An Album With The Single Version Of Help In Stereo, I'd Be Willing To Trade I Have Quite A List.

Does Anyone Have An Album With The Single Version Of Help In Stereo, I'd Be Willing To Trade I Have Quite A List.

Does such a thing exist?
The single version has only been released in mono.

[J8ste]

Does such a thing exist?
The single version has only been released in mono.

I Know That But That's The Whole Point Of A Bootleg Getting Thing's Which Haven't Yet Been Released.

[Legs]

If something doesn't exist it can't be released on bootlegs. Since there isn't an stereo version of the single it can't be released period.

[J8ste]

No, I meant it as in it was never officially released, there has to be a stereo version somewhere, I have From Me To You In Stereo.

[Legs]

Well what do I know,

Here it is then, enjoy...1207

[J8ste]

Well what do I know,

Here it is then, enjoy...1207

THANK'S A MILLION! (u want any boot I have, I'll mail u it).

[kmac]

Here it is then, enjoy...

Unless my ears are betraying me, this sounds like a mono mix to me?

[Legs]

Unless my ears are betraying me, this sounds like a mono mix to me?

... but in stereo ... :angel4:

[kmac]

:thumbu2:

[Serena]

yes, both mono and stereo mixes were originally done of help, but i believe only the mono mix was released for the single. looks like you found the stereo. :smoking2:

[J8ste]

Unless my ears are betraying me, this sounds like a mono mix to me?

"It's All In The Mind You Know"

George Harrison

"It's All In The Mind You Know"

George Harrison

Never has a truer statement been made. :teeth1:

[Legs]

I'm unsticking this thread. Most of the sites are outdated or broken, anyway with the many blogs that are around that has FLAC instead of mp3 files there is not much to gather here.

If anyone feels that a site is worth saving let me know and I'll post a link on the current "Bootleg blogs" topic.
