Article Grading: The following comments were left by the quality and importance raters: (edit · refresh) This album is not especially notable, being yet another repackaging of the Tony Sheridan tapes. Article was nominated for AFD but survived. I recommend giving it a brief mention (one line) in another article and replacing with a redirect. Or, renominating for AFRD but with a deletion rationale this time :) --kingboyk 11:08, 30 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Good?

Good???

That's the latest incarnation of the Polydor Records Tony Sheridan recordings. It's better to talk about the earlier releases on Polydor. Steelbeard1 10:47, 28 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] The credits on "Why"

Does anybody know the first name of this "Compton" person? --Ian911299

[edit] Results of AfD attempt

An attempted AfD proposal resulted in the verdict "KEEP (no consensus)" The discussion is at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/The Early Tapes of The Beatles. Steelbeard1 11:18, 25 June 2006 (UTC)

Should we try to propose merging this article with The Beatles' First? Steelbeard1 11:20, 25 June 2006 (UTC)

Yikes! I didn't know it had been on AFD. Why didn't anybody tell me? :) I'm quite good at writing deletion rationale. Anyway, never mind. I'd suggest a small merge (smerge) and redirect. --kingboyk 11:01, 30 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Merger proposal into The Beatles' First

I vote Yes Steelbeard1 11:54, 25 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Switch to original CD issue

Since some people still want this article in, I changed it to the original CD issue on Polydor. I'm still in favour of merging the article into The Beatles' First. Steelbeard1 10:51, 1 July 2006 (UTC)
