    Already a thread, eh?

    I'm moving my bet closer in the direction of Flaming Pie, via the Archive Collection [2019+] thread.

  14. Does anyone know why they have remixed AR? I mean the stereo versions of the mono era albums sound crappy, I understand that, but from WA onwards the albums had proper decent original stereo mixes. What's wrong with AB as it is?

    Wow. That's surprising. The only other thread about a future release I can think of is Let It Be. But it would be too soon, right?

    The biggest problem people have with the original mix - and this is only some people, mind you - is that the vocal on "Here Comes The Sun" is only in one channel.

    Aside from that, the general opinion has been the album didn't really need a remix, but Giles said he wanted it to sound more modern. And here I was, thinking it already sounded that way!

    There's also the Revolver thread that just started... hmmm. I do love a mystery.

    The WA BluRay tracks have higher DRs by approximately 2 units, compared to the CDs. If things will go as previously, Something will have a DR around 10-11. It is around 8.2 on YouTube AAC file now.

    Theres no way they are going to announce a Revolver set in the middle of the promotion for AR

    No singles box, No Flaming Pie, unlikely Let It Be (guessing that’s May 2020)....

    That leaves the new Revolver remix thread and the Peter Jackson film thread. I can’t see Apple dropping Revolver so soon after Abbey Road and so I’ll go with the Peter Jackson project....assuming it’s another release by The Beatles.

    Looking forward to solving this new mystery! :)
     
  23. Okay, so it's more of a vanity and cash-in exercise by the sound of it.

    Abbey Road is possibly my favourite Beatles album but I love it EXACTLY as it is. I don't need to hear son of Martin Senior's take on it after 50 years.

    What's the point, they'll probably compress the hell out of it in the mastering anyway.

    My go to copy is a Japanese LP pressing from 1975. I also like the 2009 CD even though it gets criticised here for some strange reason.

    There's nothing "wrong" with the original stereo mix of Abbey Road. But that mix isn't going away.

    A new mix for the streaming generation has been created. Most music fans listen online these days, and Apple/Giles are attempting to create new mixes that don't sound "old" when heard on a Spotify playlist. And it makes a lot of sense to do that, while also keeping the original stereo and even mono mixes available to fans to order if they wish.

    The new mixes are also suitable vehicles for delivering more outtakes and deluxe books to hardcore fans :)

    The reason given for non inclusion is flimsy at best. For me "Only A Northern Song" is an okay song but a great recording.
