From the liner notes:

This 2CD set contains all of the known 1960 rehearsal recordings by the “Beatals”. Though the quality is rough, the material has undeniable historical values as it features the only know recordings of the band with Stu Sutcliff and offers a rare glimpse into the repertoire and musical capabilities of the group in its formative years. This set has been mastered from the best available sources and it includes a 28 page booklet of notes and photos.
