So, What is the Verdict on the Beatles Box Sets?


I see a WIDE variety of opinions on the new Beatles Box sets; both for the stereo and mono versions. Have you spent some quality time evaluating these? How good/bad are they? Should we run out and get both sets? What about releasing them on vinyl; is that going to happen?

The stereo 2009 CD box set just sounds odd to me, a little bit unfamiliar if you like. I'd go as far as to say it sounds like remix. The effect is almost subliminal, and won't be apparent if you have not heard the vinyl recordings.

For me the bigger gulf is between the analogue and digital versions rather than the stereo and mono ones.
