Includes Previously Unreleased Studio Outtakes, Demos & Studio Chat!Rolling Stone 500 Greatest Albums of All Time - Rated 14/500! Rolling Stone 500 Greatest Songs of All Time - "Something" - Rated 278/500!It was 50 years ago, on August 8, 1969, that the world's most famous band stepped out from London's EMI Recording Studios to stride, single-file, across the black and white stripes of Abbey Road's nearby zebra crossing. With photographer Iain Macmillan balanced on a stepladder and one policeman stopping the street's light traffic, The Beatles crossed back and forth three times, led by John Lennon, followed by Ringo Starr, Paul McCartney, and George Harrison. Just six photos were taken, with the fifth selected as the cover shot for The Beatles' penultimate studio album, Abbey Road, named after the tree-lined street in which the studios are located. Released September 26, 1969, Abbey Road was not The Beatles' final album, as Let It Be followed in 1970, but it was the last one John, Paul, George, and Ringo recorded together as a band.This limited edition Deluxe vinyl box set features all 40 tracks from the Super Deluxe collection on three 180-gram vinyl LPs. The album’s new stereo mix LP is packaged in a faithfully replicated sleeve, with the two Sessions LPs paired in their own jacket, presented with a four-page insert in a lift-top box. Giles Martin, working with Sam Okell, from the original eight-track session tapes, was guided by the album’s original mix supervised by his father, George Martin."The magic comes from the hands playing the instruments, the blend of The Beatles' voices, the beauty of the arrangements," Giles Martin explains. "Our quest is simply to ensure everything sounds as fresh and hits you as hard as it would have on the day it was recorded."This is the first time Abbey Road has been remixed and presented with additional session recordings. The 23 session and demo recordings are presented in chronological order of their first recording dates. "I Want You (She's So Heavy)" leads the charge:For an overnight session on February 22, 1969, The Beatles were joined at London's Trident Studios by producer George Martin and engineer Glyn Johns to record "I Want You (She's So Heavy)". Abbey Road's new edition combines a take from that session with the concluding part of the Trident master's eight-track reduction mix made later at the EMI studios, revealing for the first time Billy Preston's thrilling overdubbed organ solo. With their amps turned up high, The Beatles received a noise complaint from one of the studio's neighbors in the Soho area of the city. The take starts with Lennon exclaiming, "My boys are ready to go!", before the band is told about the complaint. Lennon replies, "What are they doing here at this time of night?", then lays it down: "Well, we'll try it once more very loud. And then if we don't get it, we'll try it quiet, like it might do it the other way. OK. The loud one, last go. Last chance to be loud!"In the same month that the raucous Trident session took place, McCartney recorded a home demo of "Goodbye" for the Apple-signed singer Mary Hopkin and Harrison recorded a solo demo of "Something" at EMI Recording Studios. Both demos are featured on Abbey Road's new edition. "Goodbye" makes its release debut. Although previously released on Anthology 3 in a version featuring guitar and vocal, the new anniversary mix of George's "Something" demo features for the first time vocal, guitar and piano.The Beatles reconvened at EMI's studios and Olympic Sound Studios for sessions spanning mid-April to early May. On April 14, Lennon and McCartney recorded the single "The Ballad Of John And Yoko" in EMI's Studio Three, with Geoff Emerick as the balance engineer. Two days later, the single's B-side, "Old Brown Shoe" was recorded. Session recordings for these tracks, as well as three more songs started during this period, "Oh! Darling", "Octopus's Garden" and "You Never Give Me Your Money" are featured in Abbey Road's anniversary edition.The remainder of Abbey Road's sessions took place in July and in August with George Martin producing, and with principal engineers Geoff Emerick and Phil McDonald taking turns at EMI's groundbreaking new mixing console, the TG12345. On July 2, 3 and 4, McCartney, Harrison, and Starr recorded "Golden Slumbers"/"Carry That Weight" as a medley (Lennon was hospitalized in Scotland, recuperating after a car accident). A sequence of Takes 1-3 from the first day's session is featured in the anniversary edition. Take 9 from McCartney, Harrison, and Starr's backing track session for "Here Comes The Sun" on Starr's July 7 birthday is also included.On July 21, 22, and 23, The Beatles were in-studio to record “Come Together,” followed by additional sessions on July 25, 29 and 30. The anniversary edition features Take 5. On July 23, The Beatles began recording "The End", which, along with McCartney's timeless couplet – "And in the end, the love you take / Is equal to the love you make" – features Starr's only drum solo on a Beatles recording. Take 3 is included in Abbey Road's new edition. The next day, just before the band's 34-take session for "Sun King" and "Mean Mr Mustard", McCartney cut a quick studio demo for "Come And Get It" – later a hit for the Apple-signed band Badfinger. The demo's original 1969 stereo mix, made with McCartney and Lennon present in the control room, is released for the first time in the new edition, as is Take 20 from The Beatles' "Sun King" and "Mean Mr Mustard" session. On July 25, two more songs, "Polythene Pam" and "She Came In Through The Bathroom Window", were recorded as one for inclusion in the album's epic medley. Take 27 from that session is featured on the new edition.After Harrison had transported his rare and cumbersome Moog synthesizer to the studios, four songs received Beatle-played synthesizer parts: "I Want You (She's So Heavy)" (Lennon), "Maxwell's Silver Hammer" (McCartney), and "Here Comes The Sun" and "Because" (Harrison). This was a very early use of the newly-invented instrument on a pop record. George Martin wrote arrangements for several tracks that were recorded in Studio One toward the end of the sessions in August 1969. The original overdubbed recordings of Martin's scores for "Something" and "Golden Slumbers"/"Carry That Weight" are included in Abbey Road's anniversary edition.August 20, 1969 was the last time The Beatles were together as a band at the EMI studios, for an evening session to compile Abbey Road's master tapes. The album's sides were sequenced, with "Come Together" opening Side 1, and with the medley of "You Never Give Me Your Money", "Sun King", "Mean Mr Mustard", "Polythene Pam", "She Came In Through The Bathroom Window", "Golden Slumbers", "Carry That Weight" and "The End" placed on Side 2. "The Long One", a different trial edit and mix of the medley, including "Her Majesty" (ultimately placed 14 seconds after "The End" as an unlisted, hidden track) is included in Abbey Road's new edition.The deluxe 3 LP vinyl box set includes two LPs of live takes from the sessions as well as home demos, Lennon's 'The Ballad of John and Yoko' and McCartney's 'Goodbye' home demo that became a Mary Hopkin hit that I didn't know (so sue me). Hearing these songs performed live minus studio overdubs and embellishments is a genuine thrill and enhancement to the pleasures of listening to the finished record. Like the 'Esher Demos' from The Beatles, these 2 LPs are not the kind of 'play once' curiousity that often gets packaged with 'the goods'. These are part of 'the goods' that you will surely play repeatedly and maybe even sing along with when the space for vocals opens up.-Michael Fremer, Analog Planet, Music 11/11, Sound 10/11 FeaturesSuper Deluxe Edition50th Anniversary Edition3LP Box Set180g VinylLift-top box4-page insertAbbey Road LP - Brand new stereo mix by Giles Martin and Sam Okell2 LPs of previously unreleased studio outtakes, demos and studio chatRemixed and remastered from original 8 track tapesMade in GermanySelectionsAbbey Road (2019 Stereo Mix)Side OneCome TogetherSomethingMaxwell's Silver HammerOh!

Half-speed-mastered 180g LPs + 7-inch vinyl EP in a 12.56" x 12.36" slipcase.It is hard to overstate how amazing it is in the way the producers have been able to isolate these tracks in such a high-fidelity manner. My biggest fear going into hearing this Revolver set was there might be some sort of harsh, crunchy digital edge to the production. Thankfully, there's none of that on this vinyl edition. Fact is, I was very, very pleased — and relieved! — after putting on the new stereo mix to find the whole presentation much, much warmer, and far more inviting as an end-to-end listen... the other big news about this new Revolver box set is the inclusion of two LPs' worth of studio outtakes. To my ear, all of this material is enlightening, exciting, and — at times — even exhilarating!... My only wish to make this fine box set even finer would have been for the Apple corps to have given us even more! Most hardcore Beatles fans like us would have loved another album or two of outtakes and rehearsals, of course. But, hey, the music itself herein is great, and, clearly, a lot of love and care went into its creation — and it all sounds pretty terrific too on vinyl. I'm happy about this new Super Deluxe Revolver 4LP/1EP box set, hands down — and I think you will be too!-Mark Smotroff, Analog Planet, Music 10/11, Sound 9/11How engineer Ken Townsend invented a means by which there could be double tracking vocals without actually recording it twice is but one of the endlessly fascinating stories told in the book, which itself is worth the price of the box. It's truly sensational... Sean Magee's new all analog lacquer cut with equalization guided by Harry Moss's 1966 mastering notes (with some unspecified modifications but I bet with bottom end restored whereas the original attenuated it to avoid the dreaded 'Kangaroo cut') knocks it out of the park as we say here. It's fantastic and sounds more transparent and timbrally balanced than the excellent one found in the 2014 box that for some ridiculous reason or reasons is no longer in print. Listen to the mono mix and you will hear that tambourine sounding more like one and Ringo sounding more like Ringo and Paul's guitar sizzling and searing on 'Taxman' and generally everything having life and body and weight instead of sounding and looking like a hologram... The physical presentation—the book's layout, photography and of course the annotation itself is indispensible for Beatles fans. And the vinyl pressing done at GZ Media is also outstanding: quiet, flat 180g black records... the box is most highly recommended to Beatles fans. If you're one, you'll be reading and experiencing Revolver with a new perspective on every tune, on the album itself and on the Beatles individually and as a group that continues to defy time.-Michael Fremer, Tracking Angle, Music 10/11, Sound 7/11Sonically the results of the demixed and rebuilt Revolver are profound. Any skepticism on my part vanished within a few seconds of the stylus touching the groove. Revolver packs much more rhythmic muscle and imaging cohesiveness compared with the original stereo. The laid-back passiveness is gone and replaced by the assertive one-punch thrust of the mono mix—except in full-bodied stereo. The new mix sits comfortably, even naturally, between the speakers. The center of the soundstage—once almost vacant of music given the hard right/left panning—has been restored... For the fans that have asked if only The Beatles could be heard without the technical roadblocks imposed during that era, this Revolver is for you. Yes, the original mono mixes still hold up well, but the new stereo version of Revolver is an achievement that can't be praised enough. As for the original stereos, they are now respected artifacts and collectibles to be relegated to the LP rack.-Neil Gader, The Absolute Sound, February 2023FeaturesSuper Deluxe Box Set180g VinylHalf-Speed Mastered4LPNew Mix by Producer Giles Martin & Sam OkellOriginal Mono Mix45rpm 7" Vinyl - Four-Track EP31 Session Takes & Home Demos100-Page Book - Foreword by Paul McCartney, Essay by Questlove, Detailed Tracks Notes, Photos, Ephemera, Handwritten Lyrics, Tape Boxes & Extracts from Klaus Voorman's Graphic Novel on the Making of the Cover Art12.56" x 12.36" SlipcaseMade in Czech RepublicSelectionsLP1 - Revolver 2022 MixSIDE ONE:TaxmanEleanor RigbyI'm Only SleepingLove You ToHere, There and EverywhereYellow SubmarineShe Said She SaidSIDE TWO:Good Day SunshineAnd Your Bird Can SingFor No OneDoctor RobertI Want to Tell YouGot to Get You into My LifeTomorrow Never KnowsLP2 & LP3 - Revolver SessionsSIDE ONE:Tomorrow Never Knows - Take 1Tomorrow Never Knows - Mono mix RM 11Got to Get You into My Life (first version) - Take 5Got to Get You into My Life (second version) - Unnumbered mixGot to Get You into My Life (second version) - Take 8Love You To - Take 1Love You To - unnumbered rehearsalSIDE TWO:Love You To - Take 7Paperback Writer - Takes 1 and 2 (backing track)Rain - Take 5 - actual speedRain - Take 5 - slowed down for master tapeDoctor Robert - Take 7 (full length)And Your Bird Can Sing (First version) - Take 2And Your Bird Can Sing (First version) - Take 2 (giggling)SIDE THREE:And Your Bird Can Sing (Second version) - Take 5Taxman - Take 11I'm Only Sleeping (rehearsal fragment)I'm Only Sleeping - Take 2I'm Only Sleeping - Take 5I'm Only Sleeping - Mono mix RM1Eleanor Rigby - Speech before Take 2Eleanor Rigby - Take 2SIDE FOUR:For No One - Take 10 (backing track)Yellow Submarine - Songwriting work tape, Part 1Yellow Submarine - Songwriting work tape, Part 2Yellow Submarine - Take 4 before sound effectsYellow Submarine - Highlighted sound effectsI Want to Tell You - Speech and Take 4Here, There and Everywhere - Take 6She Said She Said - John's demoShe Said She Said - Take 15 (backing track rehearsal)LP4 - Revolver Original Mono MixSIDE ONE:TaxmanEleanor RigbyI'm Only SleepingLove You ToHere, There and EverywhereYellow SubmarineShe Said She SaidSIDE TWO:Good Day SunshineAnd Your Bird Can SingFor No OneDoctor RobertI Want to Tell YouGot to Get You into My LifeTomorrow Never Knows7" Vinyl - Revolver Bonus EPSide A:Paperback Writer (2022 Stereo)Rain (2022 Stereo)Side B:Paperback Writer (2022 Mono Remaster) Rain (2022 Mono Remaster)The Beatles Let It Be (Special Edition) Super Deluxe Half-Speed Mastered 180g 4LP & 45rpm 12" Vinyl EP Box SetSuper Deluxe Half-Speed Mastered 180g 4LP & 45rpm 12" Vinyl EP Box Set!With 27 Unreleased Session Recordings!1969 Unreleased 14-Track Get Back LP Mix by Glyn Johns!Includes 100-Page Hardback Book!

THIS OUTER CARDBOARD BOX WILL BE A GREAT SOURCE AS A STORAGE CONTAINER FOR THE SET.Rolling Stone 500 Greatest Albums of All Time - Rated 392/500!The Let It Be album has been newly mixed by producer Giles Martin and engineer Sam Okell. All the new Let It Be releases feature the new stereo mix of the album as guided by the original "reproduced for disc" version by Phil Spector and sourced directly from the original session and rooftop performance eight-track tapes.The Super Deluxe Edition includes 27 unreleased session recordings, a 4-track Let It Be EP, the 1969 unreleased 14-track "Get Back" stereo LP mix by Glyn Johns, and a 100-page hardback book with an intro by Paul McCartney, track-by-track recording information, and many unseen photos, notes, and more. A slipcase box set houses the 4 LPs, 12" EP, and hardbound book. The Super Deluxe beautiful book features Paul McCartney's foreword; an introduction by Giles Martin; a remembrance by Glyn Johns; insightful chapters and detailed track notes by Beatles historian, author, and radio producer Kevin Howlett; and an essay by journalist and author John Harris exploring the sessions' myths vs. their reality. The book is illustrated, scrapbook style, with rare and previously unpublished photos by Ethan A. Russell and Linda McCartney, as well as never before published images of handwritten lyrics, session notes, sketches, Beatles correspondence, tape boxes, film frames, and more. While the goal was an album of recorded live tracks with no overdubs, that didn't happen and what did happen is a long, complicated story sorted out with great efficiency in the outstanding annotation included in both of the recently released digital and vinyl disc Let It Be sets... Overall I think this is among the most successful stereo mixes of the entire series, in part because there was less (if any) 'moving around' and/or 'fixing' to do. The recording was originally to 8 tracks and there was minimal overdubbing, which was the original intent. As with the previous mixes, the timbral balance is midrange-rich, bottom end strong and top end 'reticent' compared to original pressings (I like more 'snap' to snares and 'sizzle' to cymbals as can be found on the original U.K. pressing) but the minor 'in the pocket' balance updates produce insightful and enjoyable improvements on just about every tune...

The collection includes the 2LP album (new stereo mix) in a faithfully reproduced embossed cover of its original gatefold sleeve with fold-out poster and portrait photos, PLUS the Esher Demos pressed across 2LPs in an embossed gatefold sleeve."If you want to quickly know if you're going to like Giles Martin's The Beatles remixes start with "Long, Long, Long." If you don't like that one, you're probably not going to like the rest, but for me, that remix in particular is far superior to the one on the two original "Top Loader" U.K. pressings I have: more transparent and more spacious, with a holographic George front, center and three-dimensional as he's not presented on the original. ... Martin left mostly intact what was familiar and comfortable to long time listeners. If anything, the vocals sound richer, more velvety and more coherently believable than on the original. ...All of this said, the reissue does not sound like the original U.K. pressing nor was it intended to. Yet it remains true to the original's intent, in part because there was less Mr. Martin could do to change it." — Michael Fremer, Analogplanet."Everything we know about the White Album is about to change. The Beatles 1968 masterpiece has always been the deepest mystery in their story their wildest, strangest, most experimental, most brilliant music. But as it turns out, the White Album is even weirder than anyone realized..."Part of the White Album mystique is all the drama that went into it the arguments and bad vibes are the stuff of legend. So the big shock is all the humor, excitement, and camaraderie on display in the new set. Case in point: a previously unknown version of Good Night where John, Paul, George and Ringo all harmonize over folk guitar. As Martin admits, You listen to them sing together and ask, This is the White Album?..."The Deluxe and Super Deluxe Editions finally unveil the Esher demos, which hardcore Beatle freaks have been clamoring to hear for years. In May 1968, just back from India, the group gathered at George’s bungalow in Esher (pronounced Ee-sher) to tape unplugged versions of the new songs they’d already stockpiled for the new album. Over the next days, working together or solo, they busked 27 songs. The tapes sat in a suitcase in George’s house for years. Seven tracks came out on Anthology 3; others have never been released in any Beatle version, including John’s Child of Nature and George’s Sour Milk Sea. The Esher tapes alone make this collection essential, with a fresh homemade intimacy that’s unique. Martin says, They’re rough takes, but spiritually, the performances stand on their own."Of course, the essence of the White Album is that everyone hears it differently including the Beatles themselves. They clashed over what to include, what to leave out, whether it should have been edited down to a single record. (Years later, in the Anthology documentary, they were still arguing over it.) This edition will fire up those arguments. But even for fans who know the original album inside out, it’s a whole new experience one that will permanently change how we think and talk about the Beatles." – rollingstoneFeatures:• Limited Anniversary Edition• 180g Vinyl• 4LP Box Set• LP 1 & 2: New "The Beatles" stereo album mix• LP 3 & 4: Esher demos• Mastered at half speed• New stereo mixes by Giles Martin• 2-Piece Lift-off Lid Box• 16-page 12" x 12" stapled book• Faithfully reproduced embossed cover of original gatefold sleeve• Fold-out poster and portrait photos• Made in Germany Selections:The Beatles - New Stereo mixSide A:1.
