4.6.1 Background
This
release was like the previous year, triggered by European copyright laws
which would pass these recordings onto public domain unless Sony claims
ownership by releasing them one way or another. Sony
Music therefore 2 December 2013 released an extremely limited European only 6
LP set of outtakes, private and live recordings from 1963. The album was sold
only through selected stores in England, Germany, France and Sweden. The set
was limited to probably no more than a hundred copies. |

The set contains one LP side
with studio outtakes and five and a half LPs with live performances as follows:
