There are a whole load of albums made from the Beatles Hamburg days. It wouldn't surprise me if they all came from the same source (i.e. the recordings Kingsize Taylor made on an old tape recorder). They're all of historical interest only and are pretty bad quality sound-wise. Of the ones listed, I've only heard the Star Club album.
As for the Early Tapes, there are a bit better quality, being studio recordings, but they're still collectors only stuff. Even an old Beatles fanatic like me would only play them once or twice.

I don't know the albums listed, but I know "The Beatles Featuring Tony Sheridan: In The Beginning". 4 of the 12 songs on it is performed by Sheridan and The Beat Brothers, a group that was not constituted by any of the beatles. I actually play it every now and then along with their other earlier albums.
 
If "Cry for a Shadow" is not on one of the albums listed, it's the least interesting by default.

My god! They are tight. Most "overlooked" band ever in my opinion. Talk about talent... Clap



You've just had a heavy session of electroshock therapy, and you're more relaxed than you've been in weeks.

If you ever listen closely to them at shea stadium with all those chearing fans and they never flub a single note! Ringo said he could not hear a thing but watched thier bums to get the time changes. They all must of been able to read each others thoughts! Well thats why they were the best!

Why the hell are the Beatles in here, which member of the Beatles is related to a prog artist?

What has being related to a prog artist got to do with anything? The Beatles are in the proto-prog section as albums like Sgt Pepper have been recognised as laying the foundations of prog. There are a multitude of threads about their inclusion, I suggest you read some of them.
