This is a huge travesty. After hearing how good the Love remaster sounds and then listening to the 20+ year old original CD releases, there is no comparison. Back then I thought they sounded great, and they did, compared to most other CD releases then. I'll never forget when Sgt Pepper was finally released in 1987 and I sat back in my listening chair completely enthralled by the sonic wonder of that recording. But we didn't have 24 bit technology then!
Beatles Remasters?
I read somewhere a while ago in an upscale audiophile magazine that on the heels of the success of the remastered Rolling Stones CD's, The Beatles catalog was going to go through the same type of revamping.
It's been a few years now and nothing. On a jazz forum I recently read that the remastering has been completed, but not released because they are waiting for the current stock of dated Beatles CD's to be sold.
Anyone have any information about the status of this project and what is holding it up?
Who would be releasing this material if it ever comes out?
I also heard the same thing about the Led Zeppelin catalog, but again no details.
