DISC 7 DIGIPACK CD - Taken from a virgin vinyl of the ultra rare 20 X 4 LP and replicating exactly the artwork of the old LP ''til perfection! Containing the mysterious : PENNY O' DELL (Nashville 1974 sessions) & PIECE OF MIND (Pepper era) amongst other gems that untill today are believed to be sung by the Beatles themselves (I, myself, find it hard to believe that the former is sung by Paul, buyt the latter is certainly a Pepper song sung by John, it has divided opinions around the world!!!

DISC 3 -

The Beatles Yellow Submarine Adventures & More
This is a great one, and the closest we may ever come to a sequel to the 1968 classic! In 2000 Sony (under licence from Apple Corps) brought out a Yellow Submarine Motion Simulator Park Ride. It was used briefly in Tokyo and Berlin that year before being taken out of use. The ride featured brand new 3D animation based on the original movie and, as you'd imagine, the footage is full of references to the original.

4. 2009 Remastered Version Bubble/ Baby You're a Rich Man/ Hey Bulldog Sequence
5. Pre-Show
6. Sea Of Monsters Version

8. Sea Of Time Version


DISC 4 -

Original film name: Magical Mystery Tour
film studio name: Apple
Date Original Film Was Released: December 26, 1967 (Boxing Day)
Date Edit Was Released: December 2007
Original Runtime: 50 min
New Runtime: 54 min
Amount of time Cut/Added: 4 min
Cuts removed/added/altered: None

-"Hello Goodbye" video added before title sequence. This provides the film with a few more minutes of Beatle music, and gives reason to the song's partial appearance in the end credits. Has little to do with the rest of the film, but the same could be said for the rest of the musical sequences.
-"Flying" sequence placed after the "magic is beginning to work" sequence
-"I am the courier"/"I Am the Walrus" placed after wizards' first scene
-Aunt Jessie's dream placed after Miss Winters announces luncheon time
-"Sergeant Victor" scene placed between Jessie's dream & "Blue Jay Way". Looks like the group is walking directly from the sergeant to the tent.
-Buster confesses love to Jessie *after* Bonzo Dog strip club scene.
-Marathon scene placed after Buster passes out during above scene. This scene was placed way too early in the original version, and works better as a grand conclusion to the bus trip.
-Buster & Jesse's beach romance placed after marathon scene. This is now no longer a dream sequence. Moving this and the previous Buster/Jessie scene later into the film now gives some proper progression to what little plot this film has.
-above scene ends with Jesse and Ringo joking around. This provides some closure to the arguing that they were doing at the start of the film.
-"Your Mother Should Know" and end credits follow the above scene
