Back to The Beatles

The Beatles are back with a new remastered edition of their complete opus. For once, this is no mere gimmick of the recording industry. The Beatles were studio wizards. In this new edition, the songs sound as fresh as ever but they are now revealed in their full complexity. Tracks that laid buried in the old recordings are now brought to the fore. Every musical line is sharply delineated, and wonderfully balanced. Some songs sound as good as new. This is pop music made to last, deceptively simple, seemingly effortless but, in fact, incredibly sophisticated.
