"The Magical Mystery Tour Super Deluxe Anniversary Edition" that wasn't

This has been a good year for Beatles fans. The Sgt. Pepper anniversary box set released this summer was, in my opinion, an archival release done right. And this month we'll finally see an official release of the band's fan club Christmas records (although I wish they'd put them on CD, not just vinyl). But what didn't we get? A 50th anniversary edition of the other Beatles album released in 1967: The Magical Mystery Tour . Yes, I realize Apple Corps hasn't completely ignored MMT in recent years. The MMT film came out on Blu-ray in 2012, packaged in a special edition that included a re-pressing of the original soundtrack EP.

Coming Up: 'The Lost Album of The Beatles: What if the Beatles Hadn't Split Up?'

Announced for U.S. publication this August. Order now from Amazon . Details: An award-winning music author takes a serious look at a playful question of pop history: what if the Beatles had created one more album? This is the story of the great lost Beatles album. The end of the Beatles wasn't inevitable. It came through miscommunication, misunderstandings and missed opportunities to reconcile. But what if it didn't end? What if just one of those chances was taken, and the Beatles carried on? What if they made one last, great album? Daniel Rachel - winner of the prestigious Penderyn Music Book Prize - looks at what could have been. Drawing on impeccable research, Rachel examines the Fab Four's untimely demise - and from the ashes compiles a track list for an imagined final album, pulling together unfinished demos, forgotten B-sides, hit solo songs, and arguing that together they form the basis of a lost Beatles masterpiece. Compelling and convincing, Like Some Forgotten Dre

Two Rare Photos of Five Beatles in Australia Up for Auction

Via Artivisory : A unique pair of unpublished 35mm slides of the Beatles when they visited Melbourne in 1964, outside the Southern Cross Hotel where they appeared as a band of five, with the stand-in drummer Jimmy Nichol. The collection of the photographer's son who has kindly provided the following history to these unique images: "My father was a photographer and only happened to have his camera with him when the Beatles arrived because my sister's 21st birthday was held in the Southern Cross Hotel the previous night and the family had stayed over. Kenn Brodziac, the tour promoter, had his office at the Southern Cross and enjoyed good relations with my father, often providing free tickets to his shows - this was the case with my sister and I - we were comped for the Beatles. By the time the Beatles arrived, my sisters and I were in one of the rooms opening onto the Ist floor canopy facing Exhibition Street. A huge crowd, mainly girls, was surging in front of the hotel wh
