Where are “Ding dong Ding dong”, Bangla desh”, “Crackerbox palace”, “This song”, “Life itself”, “That is all”, “You”, “dark horse”, “Wake up my love”??? almost all of these songs were released as singles!!! Do we really need live versions of the 3 Beatles songs that had already been compiled several times?
