I love that today is Worldwide Beatles Day. Have been listening to the local station playing nothing but Beatles all day. Woohoo!

 

Other than one local DJ on a morning show starting a debate by saying how much he hates the Beatles (moral of the story: never trust a DJ whose handle would better suit a male stripper), and promos from another station that had an event at a Best Buy (which I went to, and entered a drawing for a trip to London; wish me luck!), NONE of my local stations have played any Beatles while I was listening! And one of them carries the "Beatle Brunch" program every Sunday!


While I'm happy for Paul, Ringo, and the estates of John and George that they've found another revenue stream, my reservations remain the same: the mono mixes of "Rubber Soul," "Revolver" and especially "Sgt. Pepper" should have been included with the stereo CD reissues as bonus CDs (I'm not going to shell out $250 for a multi-CD box set when I won't even play half of it -- sorry, but I don't care about the Beatles pre-"Help," pre-"Rubber Soul" moptop songs); all of the Beatles albums should have bonus tracks (or Capitol should have done what they did with the Beach Boys albums -- they're short enough where you can issue them as two albums on one CD, or at least "Strawberry Fields"/"Penny Lane" and the other '67 singles could be bonus tracks on "Sgt. Pepper"); and if ever there was a golden opportunity to do a "Get Back"/"Let It Be" box set, this seemed like it (although either this year or next year could be considered its 40th anniversary, so they could still do it in 2010).

-- John C.
 

..So don't buy the box sets! Just buy the CDs you like and ignore the ones you don't. And rather than complaining about the releases, try enjoying what's there. They sound GREAT! :)..
 

Cellar, I agree! The remasters are to be sold singularly as well, so you can pick and choose. John starts to loose me when he refuses to listen to anything pre-Help, but then he mentions The Beatles and The Beach Boys in the same sentence... I think I started to loose my vision, everything started getting blurry, I totally lost my concentration! Wow! That was crazy,... I think I'm better now!..
 

Are you serious!? And miss out on the definitive remastered mono mixes? All the albums before "Magical Mystery Tour" were MEANT to be heard in mono. There are so many missing effects in the stereo mixes, it's funny at all.
 

not funny*..
....I say go for both box sets if you have the money. If you don't, go for the mono and the buy the individual stereo albums from "Magical Mystery Tour"-"Let It Be". Or if you're really on a budget, just buy the mono and then "Abbey Road" and "Let It Be", since these don't have a mono mix at all...
 

I love itttttttt
 

Tha's wonderfull!!!:)

 

Woohoooo! That's awesome! :)
 

I just recently saw Paul McCartney in Boston.  Was one of the best concerts I have ever been too.  In commemoration with Beatles Day, I bought my daughter an Xbox 360 with the Beatles Rockband.  I already have all of the Beatle albums.
 

.....John ..was ..very.. 'into' the #..9.. - as we all know - !...
 

Pretty stoked that my favorite bands day is on my birthday!! happy birthday to me!!
 

All right!! This is wicked cool!! Great job, men.. and if ladies were a part of this. Good job men and ladies!! :D

 

Awesome! That's wicked cool man!

 

Happy Beatles Day!
 

..Happy Beatle's day, John,Paul,George and Ringo...........
 

I love the Beatles!  ..

 

....It started last night, to put an exact time on it that would be 9.15pm - The phone rang and a voice said; "So, you buying the lot tomorrow then or just putting a toe in the water?" I didn't need to ask what she meant, nor did I actually have an answer on the tip of my tongue! - Which is pretty rare for me... ..........
............Today, you see, you must see, unless of course you've spent the last three months or more sweeping up on Mars, with zero access to media of any kind, is 09 - 09 - 09 the day seen fit by the two surviving Beatles and the wives of the two no so lucky ones as the perfect day (Revolution 9 and all that, do you see?) to bring us every Beatles album that was ever made, re-mastered and packed like never before, and, if you fancy it, a Guitar Hero style game (Rock Band: Beatles) so if you wish you can have a go at actually being a Beatle!!!   ............
............I'd given this matter much thought over the last few months, read all the magazine coverage, seen the reviews till I was sick of reading them... After all these albums are all 40+ years old, and (here's the rub) those of us who want them, do actually own them?!?!..........
..........My original intention, and one that was still fresh in my mind this morning, was fuck it, one fowl stroke and buy the lot, possibly even one of the box sets... That way your sorted, it's done! By tonight you'll be deep into at least two of 'em.............
..........I arrived at HMV in Bayswater about 2.30pm today, they were playing 'Sgt Pepper' (no surprise there then)............and I was sucked into the store on a wave of 'Being For the Benefit of Mr Kite' (a song I could truly talk to you forever about! - It's based on a Circus poster you know, and...) once safely inside the store, I noticed that certain titles were already sold out, and more amazingly the crowd, and it was a crowd folks, not your normal Wednesday afternoon HMV thing! This was the kind of buzz only major advertising makes real - Yeah, the crowd were almost all cherry picking, most of them were going for 'Abbey Rd' or 'Sgt Pepper' plus a-n-other. ..........
..........On the spot I thought fuck it, I'm going to buy two, that'll be it for today, I can always go back on Saturday (who I'm I kidding, I'll be back Saturday!) so I picked up 'Sgt Pepper' like it was calling to me, and after much thought (I mean 'Rubber Soul' was in my hand three times!!) I plumbed for 'The Beatles' (more commonly known worldwide as 'The White Album' - If yer new to this in any way) - And headed to the counter...........
..........Within half an hour I was home, I noticed instantly that the packaging on the albums has changed, I don't mean the cardboard boxes, but the general presentation, for instance on 'White Album' the four pictures, which are free inside anyway along with the poster, as you'd expect, have been replaced on the back by four pictures we've never seen before, from the same picture session... The booklets are incredible, you never saw a CD booklet in your life till you saw one of these baby's, they have been very nicely presented. Care and attention, for those who remember such things. ..........
..........Don't know about the mini documentaries just yet, I'll get round to them later tonight... So, what about the albums? Is it all hype? Or have we finally got The Beatles albums in the best possible shape? Well, yes!..........
..........I decided to start with 'The Beatles' given that it's such a huge and outstanding piece of work... 'Back in the USSR' cranked up, the airplane at the beginning sounded like it left from the flat next door and flew straight through my place, then when the vocal harmonies kicked in on the chorus, I'm like hang on a minute, for years I thought that was just John & Paul, it's all four of them!! On 'Glass Onion' I got up to answer the phone, but no one was on the phone, its on 'Glass Onion' - I've heard that song forever, where was the fucking phone!!! Wow... ..........
..........The team at Abbey Rd, I salute you, I'm hooked... Like a junkie in need of his next fix, I want 'Rubber Soul' like NOW!!! I need to hear 'Revolver' - While I'm writing this 'Sexy Sadie' is playing in the background and for all the noticeable differences, it could be a new album, one I've just been exposed too, not one I've been playing since I was about 17.............
......
......

.... ......
 

I heard a few sound clips on the CNN web site and I cant wait to hear each and every song again!!!!
 

Happy Beatles dayyy!!! ;D wooooootttt! <33:P I'm soo happy!
 

the world should be so grateful for The Beatles and there music. I believe for everytime someone hears and is touched by one of there songs, the world becomes a little less lonely and loved..... I don't know what would have done to get through some of the things that have happened to me in my life without them, and for that I'm forever indebted to them...

 

We were gonna celebrate it at school but then I got sick =[ I was gonna bring in some things from my Beatles collection and everything! I'm SO excited though! <33333333333333333333333
 

Number 09, number 09, number 09.............
 

I buyed it!!
 

Can you buy them as individual albums? I thought the deal was boxed sets? It's awesome either way -obv more affordable if available per album -and the Apple boys (tho original "Apple" of course) get their lawyers zoned in on the pirate sites. One does NOT "download" The Beatles imo.    Phil x
