The answer to a Beatle fan’s dreams: this series of outtakes and alternate versions will make you a “fly on the wall” and observe the Fabs as they crafted their oeuvre together. Well worth the price of admission, although postage for US customers is almost prohibitive. Almost.

Description
[Machine Translation] Eternal Grooves' popular series presents rare sessions and alternate versions of each Beatles album. This time, we present their fourth album, "Beatles for Sale" released in 1964. The Beatles are coming! The Beatles are coming! Ya! The Beatles were extremely busy in 1964, when their worldwide popularity exploded with the movie "The Beatles Are Coming! The Beatles had a quota of new albums to produce for the year-end sales season. This album, which was produced during such a period, includes more pure co-writings by John and Paul and more cover songs, perhaps due to the tight recording schedule, but the amount of choruses by the members has increased, and the atmosphere of the calm front cover makes this album a favorite among Beatles fans who have grown old enough to listen to it. This album is loved by Beatles fans who have grown old. The album contains rare versions of all the songs on the album, with different takes and mixes. In particular, "I'M A LOSER" and "EIGHT DAYS A WEEK" include many making-of recordings, and the singles "I FEEL FINE" and "SHE'S A WOMAN" from the same period also include making-of recordings. The recording time was only 8 days, 46 hours, including the recording of the singles, in between the U.S. and U.K. tours. Despite such a short period of time, the band achieved a masterpiece and this valuable collection of sound sources is now available. Japanese commentary on the situation at the time, episodes, song titles, etc. are included on the inside cover.
Note: This is an import edition (manufactured outside of Japan).

Description in Japanese
フォー・セール・セッションズ / ザ・ビートルズ
ビートルズのアルバム毎の貴重セッション、別バージョンをお届けするEternal Groovesの人気シリーズ。今回は4作目のアルバム、1964年発表の『ビートルズ・フォー・セール』。映画『ビートルズがやって来るヤァ! ヤァ! ヤァ!』で世界的人気が爆発し、多忙を極めた1964年のビートルズ。ノルマである年末商戦用のニュー・アルバム制作が待っていた。そんな時期に制作されたこのアルバムは、ジョンとポールの純粋な共作曲も増えており、録音スケジュールのタイトさゆえかカバー曲も増えているが、その分、メンバーのコーラス量が増えており、落ち着いた表ジャケットの雰囲気もあって年季の入ったビートルズ・ファンに愛聴されているアルバム。ここにはアルバム全曲の、別テイクやミックス違いの貴重ヴァージョンを収録。特に「I'M A LOSER」、「EIGHT DAYS A WEEK」はメイキング音源も多数収録し、同時期のシングル曲である、「I FEEL FINE」と「SHE'S A WOMAN」もメイキング音源を収録。全米や英国ツアーの合間に、シングル曲の録音も含めわずか8日間、46時間。そんな短時間に関わらず、成果をあげた名作の貴重音源集の登場。当時の状況、エピソード、曲目などの日本語解説文を内ジャケに掲載。
