The UK Rarities has been called “another E.M.I. classic ‘blunder.'” It was initially included as a bonus disc in the Beatles Collection box set released in 1978. Many collectors probably bought the box set just to obtain this disc. However E.M.I. released this disc alone ten months later, and there no real rarities. It was supposed to have tracks in stereo, but of the seventeen only four were in stereo. So it winds up being a collection of B-sides, EPs and a single released in Germany.

A track-by-track rundown of the material:

“Across The Universe”: in stereo, this is the fast version from the charity album No One’s Gonna Change Our World.
