Every year I like to broadcast the Xmas messages. It seems "new" stuff comes out once in awhile, and I'm sure that I don't have all of it now.

Here's the only CD I have...

Here's another Yellow Dog CD that has some newer stuff on it...

And here are two more CDs from Vigotone..

My point is...does anybody have any of these, especially the last 3? It looks like the last track on the first Yellow Dog CD is now replaced by several outtakes from that session, and they're all on the second Yellow Dog CD. The Vigotone CDs just combine a bunch of other junk, so it's hard to tell if there's anything really new on there. I also have a 10 or 15 minute outtake from the 1965 or 1966 sessions, it was supposedly recently discovered, it's the one where George or John talk about babies and stuff.

Anyway, if somebody has the time to sift through all of this and figure it out, maybe they can tell me what I need to have a complete Xmas collection. In other words, what do I need in addition to that first CD. And hopefully somebody can e-mail some MP3s to me. Thanks!

I have the vigotone cd-s, and it's more complete then the first Yellow Dog release, with various outtakes of the Christmas messages,nd other christmas related Beatles and solo releases. I can send you some of those outtakes, if not longer then 3 minutes.

You also need to have the new Yellow Dog cd, for the new outtakes, that aren't on their first christmas cd, or on the Vigotone set.
There is also a set by the Birthday bootleg label, which I believe is almost the same as the Vigotone one, except that it also includes songs from Ringo's I wanna be Santa Claus, wheter these are outtakes or the album versions I don't know, as I don't have that set.
