The New Beatles Box Sets Are A "Must Buy" For All Serious Beatles Fans

By Laurence Henry Hanson

If you're like most Beatles fans then you probably already own their albums on CD and you may be wondering "Why should I buy them all again just because they are being released as part of a box set?"

The most important thing to note is that the new remastered Beatles CDs that are included in these new mono & stereo box sets are not like the Beatles CDs you own now.

The most obvious difference between the CDs you own now and the new remastered CDs can be heard in The Beatles Mono Box Set which includes The Beatles albums in their original mono for the first time on CD.

These mono mixes should be of great interest to any real Beatles fan because these are the mixes that The Beatles originally intended for their fans to hear back in the 1960s.

Why is that? In the 1960s almost everyone listened to their LPs on a mono playback system so stereo was mostly ignored and most of the time and energy of The Beatles and their production team was spent on perfecting the mono mixes of their awesome albums.

At the time The Beatles considered the mono mixes of their albums to be the "real versions" and there have been many claims over the years that these original mono mixes sound superior to the stereo mixes we've had on CD for the last 22 years (since they were released on CD in 1987.)

So I think that pretty much explains why the mono box set is such a "must buy" for all serious Beatles fans, but what about the stereo CDs? Why should Beatles fans buy The Beatles albums on CD again? Quite simply, these new CDs are in newly remastered stereo.

That means that these new stereo CDs sound much better than the CDs first released in 1987. They will allow listeners to hear new details in The Beatles music that have been hidden for many years! - 18758
