The Beatles 1964 US Albums in Mono
180-gram 8LP Box Set
Contains seven Beatles albums including box set exclusive The Beatles' Story!
Analog cut from the original mono masters by Kevin Reeves at Nashville's East Iris Studios!
1964 was the year that the U.S. first fell head-over-heels for The Beatles, with an unprecedented run of albums
and singles topping the charts and going on to sell millions of copies. But these albums are not simply replicas of
the 1963 and 1964 albums released by Parlophone in the U.K. and rest of world. Seeing a different opportunity,
Capitol Records and United Artists compiled these albums for U.S. release between January 1964 and March
1965.To celebrate the momentous year when Beatlemania exploded across the U.S., seven Beatles albums are
collected for a spectacular new 8LP vinyl box set. Meet The Beatles!; The Beatles' Second Album; A Hard Day's
Night (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack); Something New; The Beatles' Story (2-LP); Beatles '65; and The
Early Beatles all feature faithfully replicated artwork and new four-panel inserts with essays written by American
Beatles historian and author Bruce Spizer.The albums' new vinyl lacquers were cut by Kevin Reeves at Nashville's East Iris Studios with constant reference to the original vinyl first pressings to ensure they are faithful to the original release, while also enabling more musical information to be heard than was possible before. 180-gram audiophile pressing. The Beatles' Story 2LP is exclusive to the box set.
Mastering Notes
These albums were cut for vinyl from the original master tapes using a completely analog signal path and with constant reference to first generation pressings of the original albums. They were made using a Studer A80 master recorder with analog preview & program paths, and a Neumann VMS70 cutting lathe originally installed in Capitol Studios in 1971. This specific all-analog cutting technique allows faithful representation of the full musical range and dynamics present on the original tapes.
