I just love the remastered versions. They prove again that the Beatles were top of the tops, masters of the universe of pop ! There songs will live forever and ever ... Superb !
El cuarteto mas grande del mundo lo vuelve a hacer, algo ta bello como sus canciones son para la eternidad, genios de una era siguen sien do influencia para muchos y muchisimos grupos mas, dios bendiga a The Beatles.
Technology, is one thing; growing up during one of the great periods in Pop Music is another. I was 10 years old when they first came to New Yorky. Great queuing up outside your local record shop; to buy the latest Beatles release, that you had never even heard before!
On my 11th birthday 11/28, I heard I Feel Fine coming out of a transistor radio; and after thirty seconds of play, was out the door, to buy it!!!! Beatles Forever
Muy interesante. Me llama la atención que aún, en 2009, no ha sido oficializado todo ese maravilloso material de raras versiones de The Beatles que editaron sellos " piratas " en los años 90.
LONDON hosts the OLYMPICS in 2012..this year also marks 50 years the BEATLES walked into the EMI STUDIOS to tell GEORGE MARTIN that they (actually it was GEORGE HARRISON) do not like his tie...to mark the occassion the lovely island of ENGLAND should hold parties at the CAVERN CLUB, the ABBEY RD STUDIOS, ALBERT HALL and various tie outlets to recognise this event!
NASTY 8 bucks at target dude the most expensive album was the white album 16.99 WELL WORTH IT AND BEATLES ROCKBAND IS EXCELLENT AS WELL IF U BUY THEM AT TARGET EVERY 2 ALBUM S THEY GIVE YOU A 10$ GIFTCARD SO YOU PRETTY MUCH GET BUY TWO = ONE FREE GREAT DEAL
Yeah well ringo needs another toilet in his mansion so you better get busy and buy them there recordings ....... well come on then Paul will be over soon to help with the renovations...
I think the surviving Beatles can be hardly blamed for something the music buying public has demanded..If there are any criticisms to be be laid on anyone it's EMI who won't (so far) release the 'mono' versions individually, and if it's only for a limited time that is noy good because I cannot afford an outlay on the whole set right now.
love or hate cd, this is by far the most amazing analog to digital conversion i have ever heard. it's tough to tell in this vid, but i saw one of "I've Got A Feeling" earlier and it blew my mind. i'm most likely going to purchase the box, but i won't be abandoning my vinyls anytime soon either.
Why would anyone want to listen to this on their computer or ipod? The CD's are going to sound 1000% times better! ESPECIALLY Revolver! That's the one I'm most excited about! Stay away from MP3 and get the CD's!!!
I could understand this comment if you had amazing equipment for playing CDs (good headphone preamps, etc), but I challenge you to tell the difference between the CD and a 320kbps vbr mp3.
The sound of MP3 is worse. If you have mid and high end equipment you will be able to tell a difference. I have nearly listened to the entire Magical Mystery Tour remaster, and can tell a big difference between this and the 1990 CD release. I am listening with 24.99 Sony headphones.
Hardly. I'm not going to waste my time proving my point. You can validate the fact that analog is superior to any other sound transfer available by asking anybody with a professional background. Google it online for the layman's explanation if you must. It is a proven fact! If you must listen to the best, such as the Beatles, then you should hear them in the best possible format. Remeber, all music pre-1978 was recorded in analog.
I grew up on vinyl guy.Analog sounds way better than the digital format. CD's will always have compressed sound. CD is a convenient format. Because of that there are some draw backs to it.I was just stating that some people like the sound of CD. I try to listen to vinyl more. Thank you for the fact there at the end. Did not know that one.
agreed. the only good thing abouts cds were that they were convenient and you could play them anywhere. However, now you can buy a simple program for your computer that will transfer your vinyl to a cd with a cleanup function and EQ . It just takes time to do it. A true labor of love, but worth it for the purists. Your ears will thank you.
im 15 and i think vinyls are cooler than cd , cds are rubbish sound good but rubbish also a big cd collection looks cheap and nasty! Now time to save up to get all the beatles LPs !:)
Awesome dude. There is just something special about putting a record on the player. Putting the needle on the record. CD's you just pop them in fastforward, and can skips songs easily. Just too convenient to me. Not a bad format though. Ebay, and Craigslist have Beatles LP's for sale. I suggest going to local record shops if you want them much cheaper. ROCK ON!
Danny, another wonderful thing about vinyl was the size of the artwork. I loved to buy an LP, and would sit to sudy the artwork as I listened to the music. The Record's jacket would often also be pretty cool to look at.
That 'warmer, richer tone' is arguable, my friend. ;) The sound of a rock dragging through a ditch isn't my idea of pleasant background noise for music, personally. But that's just me.
Make no mistake, I LOVE Vinyls for what they are, but I do prefer the 'cleaner' sound of CDs when it comes to leisure listening. Vinyls are too much hassle to manage and keep up.
It's not the age unless vinyl is left unsleeved and in the elements (cigarette smoke, airborne grease from cooking, dust, etc). Vinyl, styrene, shellac and the other compounds records are made from don't break down. Excessive playing, bad styli, improper handling, improper cleaning, etc., will cause a record to sound like crap
In theory, records actually the perfect music storage medium. The content is ageless as long as the record is stored properly.. Although I prefer vinyl to digital, the problems with vinyl are low frequency rumble and some wow and flutter issues. A lot of this comes from the play surface which is never perfect and the way sound has to be "bent" (RIAA curve) in order for audio to be cut into a record.. My favorite medium is half inch tape (reel to reel) but these slowly degrade
Because Amazon is not perfect. My Sgt Pepper CD says: 1967 EMI RECORDS LTD. 1987 EMI RECORDS LTD. 26Feb1987:First 4 CDs released (PPM,WTB,AHDN, BTS) 30Apr1987: Next 3 CDs released (H!, RS, & R) 01Jun1987: Sgt Pepper CD Released (20 years ago today!

The regular stereo remasters will have just a pinch of compression. The mono remasters (only available in the ALREADY SOLD OUT mono box set) will be completely compression free. I've read that EMI is manufacturing more of the mono box sets to meet the great public demand.
In spite of the compression used by YouTube, it's easy to say that some songs (specially from Revolver and White Album) has more deeper bass than the 80/90 editions CDs.
I hope they have not brickwalled as in use to do nowadays...
I think these are the 64kbps MP3-files from Amazon...nice compilation! I think you really can't say anything about the sound quality if the sound has been compressed.
These sound like the 80's CD's. Taxman has that horrible seperation where the choppy rhythm guitar is only in on channel. And the other is dedicated to tambourine and the whole thing just sounds too light and unbalanced. Eleanor Rigby has Pauls vocals coming out of one side only on the verses.... too separated. Please tell me this isn't the real remasters we've been waiting for...!
Yeah, sounds no different to what ive always heard & ive been collecting Beatles since i was a little boy in the late '60s ! They could have at least 'Remixed' them as well to sound as good as 'All you need is love' sounds on 'LOVE'.Also could have done 5.1 sacd surround sound.The only reason i want to buy is to have ALL the Mono mixes on cd particularly 'Pepper','Mystery Tour' & 'White album'.They could have put Mono & Stereo on one cd too for better value.Trust EMI to still be behind !
Yeah i get that now, i guess I got a bit excited. I never liked some of those stereo mixes, especially where the drums and bass were not panned centrally. I think i'll get the mono remasters.
IF YOU CAN GET A MONO BOX SET! Don't know if you've noticed but every website imaginable is sold out of their pre-order stock for the mono box set. And now the stereo one is sold out too! There was only 10,000 made apparently for the U.S. market. I've just read that EMI is now trying to meet the demand for the mono box set and will be manufacturing more. But damn if it hasn't made some of us Beatle freaks break out in a cold sweat!
on youtube, yes but wait until the real deal is out. from its original source in .wav format to amazon streaming audio to my pc to youtube it has been compressed greatly from the .wav file, losing detail, depth, and high and low frequencies. anyways though, have a nice day!
not to mention, they already over compress songs when they are remastered. for volume, pfft. i'd rather hear john lennon whispering than yelling through a megaphone in front of a microphone hooked into a first act amp with the gain on 11. i'm sticking to lp's man. i'm just a teenager and i know better than to buy the remastered box set.
after comparing these to their 1980's "remastering" counterparts... they literally sound exactly the same. i think they may have turned up the instrument levels slightly but otherwise i can honestly not tell a difference.
