remastered beatles white album
Damn. great album. I had this double lp album growing up. It came with 4 8 by 10 glossy photographs of the band. It has just been remastered and released. Sometimes its nice to actually buy a cd and listen to it compared to mp3's. The re-mastering is hard to compare to the existing cd's, but it does sound exceptional. Something about the white album also is that each song just kind of flows into each other, like its one BIG song. Just can't get that stuff anymore.

The Beatles White was the start of the transition from the Beatles as a band to the Beatles as a group of four very talented individuals. I have the mono set on order but the White and Abbey Road stereos will end up in my collection too.

I'll have check it out. Strange enough, I got interested in the White Album only after hearing the Grey Album.
Great stuff |

That's just wrong in so many ways.
Never post anything like that again please.

[conspiracy theory]
Another great Beatles remaster product available because of the Sir Paul hit on Michael Jackson via the Dr.  [/conspiracy theory]

I have an original copy of the White Album that has never been played. Complete with the posters and everything. My grandmother bought it when it came out (why, I don't know) and never played it.
I was hoping it would be worth something one day, but probably not now.

Too funny
I guys if you were around when it was new the White Album might have different meaning, but to a slightly younger generation it got lost between Led Zep and Jimi. Not sure I'll buy it, but thanks to Dangermouse at least I listened to it. Besides, it's an album, not just one song. Free your mind |

The re-masters are very nicely done. I picked up the White Album, Sgt Pepper and Revolver in stereo. I still have the original vinyl in mono.

The Grey Album isn't someone singing over the White Album, that would be crappy. It's someone who has such an innate and keen ear for music realizing that two totally independent works, from different eras, different styles, happen to overlay *just right*. He took the White Album, and the completely unrelated and different Black Album, and mixed them together (basically just overlayed specific songs) to create the Grey Album. Listen through the whole thing and you'll be amazed how well it works, which (to some people) proves that humans have a basic soundtrack that runs in our blood, and our music is just ways to put that soundtrack outloud.
Oh, wait, that's right, this has something to do with Jay-Z, and some of you will refuse to have anything to do with rap, even sight unseen. OK, move along.
