Rob Frith, owner of Neptoon Records, recently stumbled upon what he believed was a run-of-the-mill bootleg labeled Beatles 60s Demos. Now, more than 60 years after the original session, fans can hear a snippet of the first track—“Money (That’s What I Want)”—via Frith’s Instagram, where it’s quickly gone viral among Beatles devotees. Frith says he has no intention of selling the tape but would gladly offer a copy to Decca or, as he joked, personally hand it to Sir Paul McCartney if he ever stopped by Neptoon Records.
