The Beatles are definitely not a “greatest hits” kind of group. You can not get just the greatest hits CD and be done with the most influential band ever. In actuality, strongly believe the majority of their greatest tunes were not their top hits but actually were their more adventurous songs such as “Tomorrow Never Knows.”

To really understand The Beatles incredible music you have to listen to their albums completely rather than simply hearing a song here and a song there. I believe that they recorded many of the greatest albums of all time and even their not so fantastic albums (such as Beatles for Sale) have quite a few really great tracks.

That’s why I believe it’s such a marvelous idea to Buy The Remastered Beatles Stereo Box Set. The stereo box set contains every single album (and every single with the Past Masters double CD set) that The Beatles recorded and released during the 60s.

In other words it contains pretty much all of their officially released recordings except for Live at the BBC CDs and the three Anthology sets. I think this makes sense because those releases really are not a part of the band’s “official catalog”. These extras are sort of like the “extra features” on a DVD rather than the feature film.

There are actually some more of their officially released recordings that aren’t included in the box set, for example there’s 1999 release of a CD titled Yellow Submarine Songtrack that is completely different from the original Yellow Submarine LP. It’s actually much better in my opinion and definitely worth checking out because of it’s alternate mixes (it’s actually remixed, not just remastered.) Love and Let It Be… Naked are also not included.

Along with The Beatles Stereo Box Set, I also recommend that you Buy The Beatles Mono Box Set which contains the the mono versions of their songs up through 1968. It’s difficult to understand in the context of today, but when John, Paul, George, & Ringo were recording they thought the mono version to be of far more importance than the stereo mixes up until their last two albums were were recorded only in stereo.

In 1987 the music of the most popular band of all time was first made available on compact disc but unfortunately the best job wasn’t done on the mastering of those CDs and only the stereo versions of their classic albums were released.

The first problem was the digital remastering. Digital mastering at that time was still in it’s infancy. The knowledge and technology on how to get the best sound CD release has progressed significantly since that time. Mastering in the ’80s was done in only 16bit but now it is done in 24bit which is a big reason for the increase in sound quality.

To some the lack of mono mixes was an even bigger problem. Many fans wanted the choice to hear either the mono mixes or the stereo mixes just like fans in the 1960s had. And of course many fans wanted to buy both versions!

Luckily now with the Beatles remasters, these problems have been solved. Both mono and stereo versions of The Beatles timeless albums are now available and they are both digitally remastered beautifully in such a way that lets the songs to soudn better than ever.

The Beatles USB: MP3 & FLAC

This Beatles USB is essentially a digital version of the remastered stereo box set. It includes both 320kbps mp3s and 24bit FLAC files. Along with the obvious audio component, this Apple USB memory stick also includes all of the visual parts of the box set such as the thirteen mini documentaries, the extended liner notes for each album, and the previously unpublished photos.

The Apple USB memory stick is compatible with both Mac and Windows computers. The mp3s that it contains should work with no problems with your mp3 player (whether it be a Zune, an iPod, or a lesser known brand.)

The Beatles Mono CD Box Set

The release that has created the most excitement of really big Beatles fans is probably the mono box set because it’s the first time that the original mono mixes have ever been released on CD.

Some “purist” Beatles fans feel strongly that the mono mixes are really the way their music was supposed to be heard and the purists have good reason to believe that. Mono was what most Beatles fans listened to in the ’60s and it was the mono mixes that the band and it’s producers spent the most time perfecting. It really wasn’t until around 1968 that The Beatles started to take their stereo mixes seriously.

The Beatles in Stereo Box Set

2009’s most popular Beatles release has been this awesome box set. It’s been an enormous unit shifter and for good reason. It includes their entire ’60s discography in high quality remastered stereo. It sounds absolutely fantastic (these CDs are far superior to the ’80s Beatles CDs you may have at the moment.)

The really big improvement compared to the old discs are heard in the way Paul McCartney’s bass guitar cuts through the mix more so than ever before and Ringo’s drums sound much better too. It’s also great to be able to hear each individual vocal part more clearly which we can do with these new remasters.
