almost brilliant, 2010-06-11
Whether you are a long time Beatles fan or not, you really should own this set. The remastering job is excellent and leaves no comparison to the 1987 mixes. This would at least be partly due to advances in technology but perhaps also different ears at work also. The packaging too is superb with excellent new detailed notes and some fantastic photos. The thing is when something is great you want more and you want better! So why weren't the mistakes tidied up? Why no bonus tracks? Maybe the purists wouldn't stand for it but I would love to have expanded versions of all the albums with the best outtakes from the Anthology sets added and if the purists weren't happy they still have their dusty old vinyl-or am I pushing it?!Still,I repeat buy this even if you have all of it from the '80's or even the '60's.You won't regret it.

This is really very good stuff! All the Beatles' albums in the best quality ever. A must for every Beatlesfan and music lovers. It sounds so fresh and timeless, like it was recorded yesterday. This music belongs to the best music ever made!
The Beatles have Vanished, 2010-05-25
The Beatles Have Vanished - All Gloss and no substance
Somewhere in the retelling of the story, over and over, knocking off the edges along the way the Beatles have disappeared. The gloss has finally taken over.
As a life long Beatles fan (and onetime member of the `John and Yoko Peace Club') I always look forward to any new fragments unearthed but finally it seems there is nothing left except to go back and clean up what you already have. Sadly the picture of the Beatles seem gone all sentimental.
My first realisation came with `Lennon Legend' DVD, I expected to see the radical, avant garde, rude, irreverent yet honest indulgences that John and Yoko produced in their early promos films. Unfortunately the exciting groundbreaking material was replaced by a superhero who saved the world. What place does the Tiananmen Square protests of 1989 have in a Lennon video, he was long gone by then and despite making people aware of various peace issue he didn't save the world. John was no angel and that was his charm. The "Lennon Legend" DVD manages to destroy all traces of reality they might as well have painted on tights and a cape. Indeed in the making of Beatles Rockband Yoko wasn't impressed with the initial depiction of Lennon. Yoko said the original John animation lacked confidence. "This guy was a hero and should look like one". So they had to changed the way he stand. She missed the fact that the way the Beatles stood was historically important, as teenagers they were among the first to miss compulsory National Service and did indeed slouch. Ringo, the oldest beatle missed his national service by 10 months and the basic training that gave young men the upright stance that Yoko insisted on for the Rockband John.
It's no wonder John throughout the 70's bemoaned the fact that no one thought of Beatles as a real "rock n roll band" he could obviously see the rose tinted view people had of the band even back then.
It must be remembered in the mid 60's that Lennon was known as the " Lazy Beatle" sometime even the "fat Beatle" who spent a lot of time stoned in bed he was very rarely seen out. McCartney was a single guy out on the town, who through his relationship with Jane Asher and her brother Peter was the in the hub of the experimental music scene in fact he was involved with the Indica gallery which Peter Asher set up with John Dunbar. In fact Yoko went to see McCartney about contributing to a present for composer John Cage before she held her Indica exhibition where she met John.
Yoko seems afraid that John won't be shown in a good light. Now It seems the light has gone out completely leaving a museum light, making out a blurry image in which every side is a "goodside". Not that McCartney isn't painting the same "The Beatles Could do no wrong" image. There was a whole world going on around the band and they were influenced by it as much as they influenced others. Indeed Ravi Shankar was playing in the UK as long ago as 1956 heavily influencing early 60's Folk scene long before George Harrison picked up a sitar.
With the release of `Let It Be - naked' may be there was a chance to reveal a little truth once more yet here was a "lovely piece" the promised re-release of the movie with extra outtakes never happened the material was seen as too controversial. It may be sad but not really controversial the group of really tight friends were falling apart, the outtakes I have seen include some jams that at worst reflect on the news stories of the time much as Lennon and McCartney did with "Luck of the Irish" and "Give Ireland back to the Irish" a few years later. However the subject then was Enoch Powell's "infamous rivers of blood speech" which was after all a comment on immigration and the recent race relations act rather being racism. Commonwealth, Enoch Powell, White Power (get off), No Pakistanis (version of Get Back) none of these were finished song more like adlibbed passing comments on what was in the days paper. There is even the avant-garde jam featuring Yoko's trademark wailing vocalizations the afternoon after George Harrison quit the band and sitting in his chair. Not pretty music but an essential piece of Beatles history.
There are a other pieces missing from officially released material numerous demos of songs written for other artist and McCartney's own experimental "Carnival of Light". It would be great to hear the Beatles Diversions raw, rough, and often bad but at least honest.
Beatles Remastered Stereo Box Set, 2010-05-28
From 'I Saw Her Standing There' on the 1st album to 'Get Back' on the last this is how I remember hearing these songs the first time around in the 60's on vinyl. There are moments when I hear an instrument on a particular track that I havnt heard for 30 years or since I switched from vinyl to the original cd's in the 80's.
Fully remastered this is also packaged superbly and there is a DVD with featurette's on the making of each album.
13 studio albums and a double CD of non album singles, b sides and ep tracks.
One of the greatest artistic achievements of the 20th century. Am I getting carried away? YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
the beatles stereo boxset is awesome, 2010-07-19
Ok just to start off i freakin love the beatles they are just the best and i saved up for like 4 months just to get the stereo reamastered box set and it was worth every little penny just everything about it is awesome the packaging and obviously whats better than owning every beatles album in awesome packaging past masters and the mini documentaries i mean who wouldnt want to own that really.
The mono boxset i just thought i would talk a bit about it i should be getting it soon and i have looked at the thing inside out and yes its very very awesome packaging i would say more classy than the stereo boxset because there all mini lps (vinyl) i would recomend to get the stereo first because its cheaper and because you get every album but i would also recomend the mono even though i dont have it ive listened to all the mono on youtube.
So to answer all the questions Mono or Stereo my answer is BOTH!! thats if your a hardcore beatles fan like my self hope this has helped and i will be reviewing some more stuff Beatle4LifeJosh out
