Stereo and Mono are both the same except for a few missing vocals or missing instruments or sound.

@gretschdrummer100 mono up to what ended up being magical mistery tour.
the first two albums sound kinda ok in stereo because the mono mixes are just downmixes of the two channels, but a hard day's night and beatles for sale sound destroyed. the same could be said about rubber soul and revolver.
anyway, I recommend at least rubber soul, revolver and past masters 1 in mono, I dare to say "you don't know the songs" if you haven't listened to them in mono.

Which is the intended way the Beatles wanted the songs to sound?
-
At times I prefer Mono on some of these songs purely because of the panning used in the stereo. Who is the guy that decided to pan an entire drum track way to my left ear? Do they know how uncomfortable that makes people's right ear?
-
A lot of the stereo mixing was done without the 4 Beatles in the studio. It is my personal belief that George Martin and Geoff Emerick took artistic liberties to make ultimately good production decisions that would have been a source of conflict in the studio had the Beatles been present.

@lapislazuli248 I like to call that Quasi-stereo.
Frankly, if I'm not wearing headphones or have a decent PAIR of (real) speakers then I can hardly tell the difference.

@Morahman7vnNo2 What about Duophonic aka "making a mono taped and mixed album to sound like a stereophonic one"?

I think she's leaving home sounds better in stereo. to me it works better as a slow song!
I'm so tired is sung by John.

@Puch1969 Right, but Paul sings backing vocals.
