--- A Dolls House - The Best Of The Best White Album Rarities ---

"A Dolls House" was the working title of "The Beatles" (White Album).
It was changed when Family released their similarly titled debut L.P. "Music In A Doll's House" on 19th July 1968.
This double c.d. collects together the best of the outtakes for The White Album.
Recent "RockBand" MOGG files, Kinfauns outtakes from a variety of bootlegs and even official Anthology cuts.
Mono outtakes have also been treated to some ambient stereo.
The sound quality throughout is very very good indeed. It sounds terrific.
Much of the studio chatter seems edited on as if taken from something like Yellow Chatter Custard.
I believe this collection gives just 43 seconds of sound that is new to silver pressings (Martha My Dear).
Another nice presentation in the "TMOQ Gazette" style.
A solid card DVD-sized booklet with 24 pages, but not much in the way of track description.
The booklet includes a Radio Luxemburg interview with Paul McCartney.
An article by Don McCullin of The Mad Day Out photo shoot.
A piece on Maharishi Mahesh Yogi and The Beatles in India by Andreass.
