    I expect a spectacular job from Giles. The "Back in the U.S.S.R." remix sounds great, and in fact has the highest DR of any version of the song officially released on CD, including LOVE and the 2009 Remasters (stereo and mono).

    Dynamic range. It's basically a measure of the ratio between the softest and loudest sounds in music, and is used as a way to judge a remix by many on here. Compression in digital music is known in most cases to lower dynamic range. Personally, I think a remix comes down to how it sounds in my headphones :cool:

    Here's a catalog of DR for almost all music releases:

    Thanks for answering ! Yes, I know what is dynamic range ... I did not understand "DR", I thought ... he talks to me about Driving Rain ?? LOL ... then we can expect something different and better than Pepper's remix ??

    I haven’t heard anything official about this. Was it part of the press release and I missed it?

    Original 1967/68 Pepper/White LPs UK DR levels are low. Ear candy in other words. Folks seem to like the newer versions it seems.

    I don't understand why some folks seems to expect expect some sort of 'audiophile quality' from a band who were constantly fooling around with ADT, bouncing down tracks en generally doing everything to sound different.
    I think Beatles For Sale sounds fine, because it was made in a hurry an very little studio-effects added, starting with Revolver the guys (Martin, Emerick, Thomas and the other four) were constantly compressing sounds to the max, going for impact instead of ''natural''.

    Another 1969 meeting with Allen Klein (no George, as I think his mum was ill and he was visiting her in Liverpool):
