MFSL Beatles CDs


Have you heard of the "Italian" MFSL Beatles collection on CD? I understand that they may be fraudulent "bootleg" disks. Does anyone know about them?

It is also my understanding that there are no "real" MFSL Beatles CDs. However, I have bought several of the Japanese "MFSL" Beatles CDs, and I have several real MFSL Beatles LPs. They are so different sounding, there's no way the CDs were copied off the LPs.

The CDs put the vocals up front and center. You hear harmonies, tone and inflection you'll never hear on the LPs, or on any other Beatles CDs for that matter. The "MFSL" CDs are so different sounding, that it's almost like they are alternate takes on the same songs. These CDs truly make the Beatles a vocal group ... and dang, these boys could sing!

Myself, I really enjoy the "MFSL" Beatles CDs ... even more than the MFSL Beatles LPs ... and I'm an analog guy! However they were made, and who ever made them, I think they're great. I have original domestic Beatles LPs from their release dates; I have MFSL Beatles LPs; I have domestic Beatles CDs; I have Japanese Beatles LPs, and these "MFSL" CDs. Of all of these, I enjoy the "MFSL" Beatles CDs the most.

Regards to all,
