50th Anniversary all things Beatles White Album

A case of if you don't get it, it's sold out..,regret dilemma. Have the DCC gold RRS myself. Just saying content aside it's more attractive looking box than Pepper/WA 50ths. Perhaps ask your Aunty for it as a Christmas present.

 

The answer I would imagine is no. Believe this will be a one step 45 rpm 2 LP affair. Session takes /new mix cd box

 

Hey, the ALBUM has everything too.. so only appropriate that a thread about it is sprawling as well, yeah?

 

Tapes of first band version were missing/misfiled when preperation for the box began.

 

Yellow Submarine World Gala Premiere, London Pavilion, 17th July, 1968

"Cry Baby Cry" recorded on the days either side of the film premiere, also "Helter Skelter" is begun the next day.

[This was the day after Geoff Emerick quit the sessions]





Cry Baby Cry (Remastered 2009)

 

Yes, very true. The deluxe edition is a lot of money for me, so I really want it to be worth it.

 

Here's my very simplistic take on the white album and Sgt. Pepper remix boxes. I own the stereo and mono boxes. They are the foundation of what we all grew up on back in the day. I am grateful to have the both of them. They are the ground zero from which the sound of The Beatles are to be considered. I am also very grateful for the Sgt. Pepper remix box and the upcoming white album remix box. The latter two boxes are giving us a new perspective and a way of hearing things differently. Music, such as that from The Beatles, is of such great importance to me. I welcome these remixes into my life. They make me appreciate their artistic process all that much more. It's just a different perspective. It's not the definitive word on these masterpieces. We need to accept them for the spirit of fun from which they were curated.

 

Weren't all the tapes transferred digitally many years ago?

 

London Pavilion is where A Hard Day's Night had its premiere.

 

if a tape was missing, then it might have been missing for years, hence no digital transfer.

 

Agee we have the originals to fall back on, template if you like ( if so desired).

 

I think they were all there - next door to NEMS London office.

 

I went to that cinema ( one of my London escapades) in 1980 to see The Great Rock & Roll Swindle..the cinema was in decay, bit of a fleapit.

 

Any hints on the 5.1 mix? Is Revolution No.9 as spectacular as has been suggested?

 

i will be only getting it for the Blu-Ray - otherwise I would probably just wait for the Hi-Rez downloads.

 

Ha! Yellow Submarine prop mini sub, looks like a giant Corgie toy. McCartney turns up with Twiggy.( or Jane Asher in flapper mode)

 

Really busy next 8 weeks what with big box cd /Lp extravaganzas coming from everywhere, not just Beatles. Have to stay focused.

 

Looks like Paul was playing gooseberry, arriving with John & Yoko.

The next day, after finishing the recording for "Cry Baby Cry":

 

Yellow Sub premier he was sitting next to ( man spread /did Lennon create it?)Lennon white outfit.

 

My copy is a reviewer's digital copy. No Blu Ray with mine. Just the 6 disks and PDF book

 

I think you must mean 'Most people on this forum' not the listening public in general. Otherwise I agree.

 

Lucky you !!!!

 

Sounds reasonable.

 

Yes of course but, if you are sighted, you see an array of musicians from left to right and, for myself at least, that is how I visualise it when I listen to a recording of a group.

 

I think this was just after he and Jane Asher broke up.
