Bootlegs are recordings that were never oficially released by artists, such as live recordings, early takes of songs or songs that weren't officialy released on albums in case of the Beatles, Goodbye, Bad To Me, One and One is two and others like that.
You can find bootlegs on record fairs or 2nd hand recordstores.

Nowadays bootlegs labels such as Yellow Dog or Vigatone are releasing bootleg cd's complete with booklet and covers in colour, but in the beginning bootlegs were released with just plain white record covers with only a stamp on them that says by which artist the recording is, that's whay bootlegs were also called white albums.

Marissa or Harb can one of you move this topic to the bootleg forum. Thanks!

Strawberry Records also is a very lively label and I am happy to be in a position to be able to order from them quite direct, their German producers come to a store near my home every month.

I got e.g. the Hari Spector show from them.
