    The only additional releases I would have liked to have seen in this collection are Yellow Submarine Songtrack, Let it Be...Naked and Hollywood Bowl. I've ended up buying Hollywood Bowl separately but LIBN is getting expensive now. Looking forward to 1 later this week.

    Picked up "1" this morning. Nice production again - included are 4 (very nice) psychedelic prints and a poster showing worldwide single covers. I presume these were in the original vinyl release but a pleasant surprise for me since I did not own this on vinyl previously.

    Looking forward to hearing it later.

    Picked up my copy of 1 today. There were only 6 copies, in my local Tesco's again. Great copy, the packaging, g/f sleeve, card inners, psychadelic prints, and poster with the record sleeves, from around the world, are superb. I will probably hang the poster, up on my wall, it will look great. I've replaced the card inner sleeves, with poly lined inners, to stop the records, getting scratched.
    The vinyl looks superb, v.nice clean copy, 2 slabs of flawless vinyl, playing Side 1 now, no skipping, sticking, pops, crackles, surface noise, the S.Q is superb, the Stereo remixes, sound great.
    Looking forward to playing Disc 2, tomorrow.

    Can't wait, for Anthology 3, to come out, in 2 wks, can't wait to hear it, for the 1st time, and own a copy on vinyl.
    Will be sad to see the end of this series, it's been a real blast collecting, and playing these albums, the pressings, S.Q, and packaging, is second to none. Definately worth the money. :cool:

    Past Masters...mmmhhh.

    I do not know if it's my copy, but I have a crunch on so many tracks on "Yest it is" and "I Feel Fine", even in Hey Jude's intro.

    Now I do not know if it's my copy but really strange.

    Even the basses are strangely distorted on "Rain" and at some point just enter the drum on "Hey Jude", I look other listeners of other users.

    A friend of mine has bought me and he has to let me know.

    On "Across the Univers" it seems to hear "Will To Love" by Neil Young.

    Embarrassing

    Creaking crunch and wooden fire game.

    Sounds like you need to exchange this for another copy.

    I wait for other listeners.

    In any case even "moonhead" (my friend in Italy) confirmed the creakings on "Yes it is"

    Any subscribers receiving their copies today? My account is showing 1 and Anthlogy 3 as being sent earlier this week and it’s been 4 weeks since the last dispatch, so fingers crossed.

    Is "Past Masters" in the shops now? Or is it just for subscribers?

    My order arrived today. 1 and Anthology 3 along with the backpack (still no powerbank)

    It was delivered by Parcelforce which is a first I think. Delighted to have received these so early!

    I’ve not unpacked the backpack yet (I received it in the previous dispatch with BBC2 & LiB). I’m expecting the notepad this time. And maybe the flipping power bank. Who knows..... As long as the records are ok, that’s the important thing!
