Beatles "White Album" and John Lennon 'Imagine' - Expanded Reissues Due In 2018*

I'm sure they'll announce it on September 9th with a release near the end of November if it truly comes to forition

 

What is ATMOS?????

 

Something that most people could care less about.

 

Thanks, but it doesn’t answer my question

 

Dolby Atmos

 

Dolby's surround technology that adds several more speakers for height. It's pretty cool! I went to the screening of the Sgt. Pepper Atmos mix and was astonished by it. Whether Atmos is ready for the home (or, more precisely, if the consumer's home is ready for Atmos) is a main question at hand.

 

Maybe we'll get an Atmos mix of Imagine

 

Ha yeah. No interest in 50 year old albums formatted in this way.

 

Sounds pretty good in my home. Of course there are only so many movies that are mastered for Atmos.

 

The White Album could use a condensed edition more than anything. Thank God we're seeing reissues of these underrated, forgotten classics again.

 

A lot of negative feelings out there about the ATMOS mixes for Automatic For The People and Kick.If you don't have ATMOS gear it may not translate as well as the marketing says it does.No idea myself but haven't seen a good word about the mixes for the albums above.The new Pono?

 

Perhaps the complaints have more to do with the mixes.

 

Works for me.

 

I wonder if they'll serial number physical copies on the cover, for old times sake. That would be cool.

 

In gold.

 

They did on the mono, so not impossible. Unfortunately the fount was too big, too printed and unsubtle.

 

In Ringo's blood ...

 

Probably for the Super Deluxe at least.

 

Do y'all think there will be a stripped down version of Imagine included with the deluxe edition? I would love to see some less wall-of-sound type production (How Do You Sleep?) And - for example - hear John's ranching guitar slams.

 

The Beatles White Album 50th Anniversary........
Only nine months away now.
When does the legendary album get its own thread ?

 

ARNOLD............
Stop picking on our Giles, whether you like him or not you need to get along with him at family functions.
Or I will have to put you in time out.......
Oh, your already there.........
Beave

 

Or Carnival of Light!!

Dunno why the WhiteAlbum is sharing a thread with Imagine. TWA JL songs are much better than all of JL solo career imo.

 

You can't say that because <insert reasons>!

 

Apart from POB,John L imo has a handful of great singles and that's about it.But even POB can't compare to le White a. TWA Lennon (&McCartney) tunes works as a better collective of songs that begs repeat listens and are more obtuse, cryptic and surreal lyrical than Lennon solo.
