The band’s catalogue was first re-issued on CD in 1987. The difference in sound quality between then and now is astonishing. Using state-of-the-art technology, engineers have restored the original freshness to the recordings. “It’s not smarter or more sophisticated,” notes Sir Paul McCartney. “It’s just more real—it’s more true to the noise we were actually making.” The remastered CDs include the 12 original Beatles albums, along with Magical Mystery Tour and Past Masters, all featuring original and newly written liner notes and rare photos. These are available separately or together with a DVD collection of documentaries about the albums in a stylish package that resembles a black shoebox. To hear the clarity of Paul’s melodic bass playing and the crispness of Ringo’s inventive drumming—not to mention John’s and Paul’s ecstatic harmonies or, say, George’s revolutionary guitar feedback on “I Feel Fine”— is nothing short of revelatory. Prepared to be surprised. September 2009Add this page to your favorite Social Bookmarking websites           |
