A number of 'White Album' outtakes, demos, and alternate versions. Some tracks stem from the 1968 Esher demo sessions recorded at George's home.

Comments:
Much of the Off-White album duplicates recordings found on Yellow Dog's "Unsurpassed Demos" and the Condor's 1986 vinyl bootleg "Not For Sale." Material drawn from the so-called "Esher Demos" was recorded at George Harrison's Esher home in May 1968. Those tracks are comparable in sound quality to the same offerings on the Yellow Dog release. Adding Harrison's "Sour Milk Sea" and McCartney's "Singalong Junk" would have strengthened Off-White immensely. Instead, a half-dozen EMI outtakes from 1968 are used to fill out a well-conceived package. Slight surface noise reveals that all of these additional EMI tracks originated from vinyl sources -- most likely, "Not For Sale" or "The Lost Lennon Tapes." As a whole, this disc is only recommended if you haven't got "Unsurpassed Demos" and "Not For Sale."
