"The collection also includes a bonus LP which was later released separately:", i.e. the UK Rarities album. I think we can lose that line to be honest, Rarities was part of the box, period. What interests me though, and what isn't made clear, is what was in the limited edition US set? Did that include the UK rarities album too? --kingboyk 14:05, 22 March 2006 (UTC)

The USA Beatles Collection also included the UK Rarities album which bore the Capitol label. The Rarities mention as a bonus album was to make clear that Rarities was not part of the original pre-CD official British Beatles catalogue. The limited edition US set was identical to the British release. Steelbeard1 14:20, 22 March 2006 (UTC)
