I am currently re-reading the book " The Beatles Recording Sessions ".
What makes it so interesting is reading about how an album was recorded and then go listen to it , especially now that my system is good enough to reveal the details described in the book .
"In general terms you could say there's the Beatles before and after hallucinogens - basically the years of Beatlemania 63-66 up to and including Rubber Soul." from cd318
This is kind of true , but a more applicable description would be
the touring years and the studio years .
As for my favorites , I'd say the studio years and to my own surprise
the mono versions rival the stereo is listening enjoyment .
The "Let It Be Naked" and the anthology recordings are really good
at showing how good the band was .
This is a good time to " Stay Home and Listen to the Music "
as my Cardas Audio T-shirt says .
