unknown bootleg

[WooD$TocK]

I downloaded a bootleg with these songs:

Hallelujah, I love her so
One After 909
I will always be in love with you
Youll be mine
? Matchbox ?
Thinking of linkin
?
Cayenne
Ill follow the sun (UNCOMPLETE)

Its only 17,23 mins long, so i dont think its the whole botleg. I know it was recorded in 1960, at least 3 of the tracks was on Anthology 1, but i dont know if all the songs was recorded in Liverpool.
Can you plz tell me what the name of this bootleg is??

Hey, how's this for an answer in less than 5 minutes....All of those tracks are from that awful sounding recording made by the Quarrymen in Liverpool in 1960. It's John, Paul, George, and Pete, and even the cleaned up Anthology tracks sound pretty terrible. It's historic, but I think it pretty much ends there. I have an old double LP and a newer CD version, so the entire tape is probably at least over an hour long. Try these links for more info...

Yes ive seen there are quite many songs they recorded under that period, but are they all recorded at Forthlin Road, Liverpool or are some of vthem recorded in Hamburg as well??
Thanx for the links!

It looks like all of the tracks you have are from Liverpool. Anything from Hamburg is either live from the Star Club or from the Tony Sheridan studio sessions. It's pretty easy to tell them apart. The live stuff sounds awful and you can hear an audience, while the studio stuff is perfect quality.

There are other tracks here and there recorded in the early days, like the Decca audition, a few songs (I Saw Her Standing There/One After 909/Catswalk) from a Cavern Club rehearsal, and that really early demo (That'll Be The Day/In Spite Of All The Danger) from Anthology.

I think it's most likely that the recordings were made at various locations around Liverpool such as Paul's gaff and the Liverpool Institute. Also, there is a third tape in existence which so far hasn't been bootlegged...

It is John, Paul, George and Stuart, taped by McCartney's brother Mike in Liverpool in April 1960. The best collection is called 'Strong Before Our Birth'.
