Calling it “shitty” is a bit much don’t we think?

It’s a piece of history…and nobody has heard it since….the versions that are being put up on the internet are just creepy fan-boy frauds…nothing to see there…move along…

It’s The Beatles…we’re fascinated…now please get those mono mixes out already!!!!
