HMV's Japan site (http://www.hmv.co.jp/en/news/article/1008050069/) has a list of the tracks on the rarities discs of the John Lennon remasters box sets. We haven't been able to confirm whether the listings are the same for the U.S. sets. Often, Japanese releases have more tracks. That may or may not be the case here. (Thanks to Paul Soper for the alert.)

 (Note, on Aug. 14, we published this in Beatles News Briefs: 

 "INSTANT CONCERN: Those track listings we posted for the John Lennon remasters box sets from HMV in Japan were not released by EMI and have caused some concern within EMI. We're told, however, they are correct."
