Been listening to The Beatles ...

I've been going through the whole catalogue -- both stereo and mono mixes -- and I've found myself actually enjoying these records even more than I thought I would. Even "Beatles for Sale" -- no one's favorite by the Fab Four -- isn't half bad. And the great records are sounding better than ever. Sure, many of us believe that these guys were the best rock band ever, but listening to 'em again and finding that to be true has been proving to be lots of fun. (And I haven't even played the Past Masters discs yet!)

I have finally gotten through listening to the entire STEREO reissues, (I don't have the MONO Boxset). I find them just wonderful. Much better than any other CD reissue I have heard. Yes, they are not quite up to the best of the vinyl, (which I have a massive amount of), but for CDs, they are very nice.

I haven't done this much listening to one group for a long time. I also agree that the Beatles were the best of the best. This just reassures, (to me anyway), that they really were an incredible band.

I hadn't listened to any of the Beatles stuff in quite awhile, so I can't claim to be that familiar with all the nuance. I think my last listen was 6 months ago and that was Love on vinyl.
I picked up Revolver and a few others Saturday and listened in my spare system. I was VERY impressed. Heard lotsa little things that I know I hadn't heard before.
The remasters were nicely done, IMHO.
