This is a comment on the "Ultimate Archive Collection" as a whole. There is an entry for the "Liverpool Sound Collage" EP/album with the UAC treatment, but it doesn't show up in the list of the Ultimate Archive Collection series. Just making you aware of its exclusion.
Thanks Jason - added at http://www.the-paulmccartney-project.com/album/liverpool-sound-collage-ultimate-archive-collection/
Where can this unofficial archive be found?
Hi Maarten, I guess it's difficult to find these days - pls look at the common public sites dedicated to Beatles boots.
Thanks for your reply.
Disc 1 has wrong numbering of bonus tracks. It should start with 14 (Once Upon...).
Thanks, Jan.
