For those who downloaded The Beatles "Bootleg Recordings 1963" and are planning on burning your own CDs from the material, Jeff Levy (of AppleLog fame) created these labels.
The material should fit nicely on three discs. I would have put all the BBC songs on two discs and the rest on a third. I'll get back again with a back cover (you already have a front cover).
Evaluation of the studio tracks from this release:

Thanks to gforce for analysing these tracks. We can add that both the demos, tracks 58 and 59 sound exactly like they used to on several earlier bootlegs. As for the BBC tracks, we'll have to leave them for later. But there are upgrades among them.
