Look what iTunes sneaked out two days before Christmas -- the 1963 Beatles fan club Christmas recording, free of charge no less. One of the commenters complained that it was a minute shorter than the original, and who knows why that happened; someone theorized it was actually digitized from an original flexidisc, since that's how they were issued, and perhaps there was just a bad stretch of groove. It does sound a little crackly to my ears, though I'm sure the original master tapes still exist, as they did actually put out an album of all of them, however briefly it was available. Anyway, here 'tis for your delectation, no guarantees as to how long it will be available.
