any new Beatle fans because of the remasters?

gotta admit that the beatles were never really my cup of tea. they were a little before my time but i do remember my older sisters jamming to them when i was very young. thought they were ok and liked a few of their cuts but was never really a fan. i did have a huge amount of respect for them but never really "liked" their music.

all this remaster talk got me to try a couple of the discs recently (white album and revolver). couldn't believe how much i enjoyed them!. maybe i never gave them a chance in the first place?. maybe my tastes have matured/changed?. maybe the recording sound alot better??. most likely it's a combo of all of the above. regardless....i'm really "liking" them now. defiantly gonna buy a few more or maybe even the box set.

better late then never

anyone else a new fan?

One must understand that the curmudgeon must raise its head from time to time to catch some air.
Levy03,
I'm afraid you've unwittingly given them another opportunity.
IMO: Your original post was more than reasonable but seems its been sabotaged.

Chashmal=The Grinch that stole the Beatles. 8^)

I hadn't listened to the Beatles in a while either. I purchased stereo versions of everything from Rubber Soul and Revolver on up just to check them out. I'd always been disappointed by the sound quality of previous CD releases.

I think these new CDs are definitely a nice improvement over what was available. Although I was never a rabid fan I do like a lot of their stuff and the remasters got me listening again. I've always liked the later stuff more than the earlier.

Chashmal,
I hope it wasn't a nice single estate darjeeling or assam.
