I gotta say, I really like a lot of the re-mastered versions of the original songs. Some of the original tracks from the early days really bug me.

Honestly, as a huge Beatles fan, Love is very possibly my favorite semi-Beatles product.

Here is my new Beatles BoxSet!!! Wasn't due for delivery until Tuesday, but the vinyl gods, (and FEDEX) have always been pretty good to me.

Haven't opened it yet, but it sure is pretty.

Even though not up to the analog UK Parlophone originals from years ago, the box set is getting good reviews from A-Z & is a bargain as compared to hunting down pristine UK copies.

Happy listening -- my box shipped yesterday (delivery for Tuesday). Cool Beans.

Best

How excited are you? I can hardly sit still knowing it's in transit.

Guess I am spoiled. To me, just another box set of music. I have the BC-13 which is the crown jewel in Beatles box sets & the MFSL box set which is also nice. So, this will be a third.

Does anyone know if this set uses the same sources as those from the USB green apple released a couple years ago?
