About this product

Product Information

In November 1968, millions of double LPs were shipped to record stores worldwide ahead of that tumultuous year’s most anticipated music event: the November 22nd release of The BEATLES (soon to be better known as ‘The White Album’). With their ninth studio album, The Beatles took the world on a whole new trip, side one blasting off with the exhilarating rush of a screaming jet escorting Paul McCartney’s punchy, exuberant vocals on “Back In The U.S.S.R.” “Dear Prudence” came next, John Lennon warmly beckoning his friend and all of us to “look around.” George Harrison imparted timeless wisdom in “While My Guitar Gently Weeps,” singing, “With every mistake we must surely be learning.” Ringo Starr’s “Don’t Pass Me By” marked his first solo songwriting credit on a Beatles album. For 50 years, ‘The White Album’ has invited its listeners to venture forth and explore the breadth and ambition of its music, delighting and inspiring each new generation in turn. On November 9, The Beatles will release a suite of lavishly presented ‘White Album’ packages (Apple Corps Ltd./Capitol/UMe). The album’s 30 tracks are newly mixed by producer Giles Martin and mix engineer Sam Okell in stereo and 5.1 surround audio, joined by 27 early acoustic demos and 50 session takes, most of which are previously unreleased in any form. The Beatles’ newly adopted method of recording all through the night was time consuming and exhausting for their producer, George Martin. Martin had other duties, including his management of AIR (Associated Independent Recording), and he had also composed the orchestral score for The Beatles’ animated feature film, Yellow Submarine, released in July 1968. After the first three months of ‘White Album’ sessions, Martin took a three-week holiday from the studio, entrusting the control room to his young assistant Chris Thomas and balance engineer Ken Scott. Scott had taken the place of engineer Geoff Emerick, who left the sessions in mid-July. On August 22, Ringo Starr also left the sessions, returning 11 days later to find his drum kit adorned with flowers from his bandmates. While the sessions’ four and a half months of long hours and many takes did spark occasional friction in the studio, the session recordings reveal the closeness, camaraderie, and collaborative strengths within the band, as well as with George Martin. “We had left Sgt. Pepper’s band to play in his sunny Elysian Fields and were now striding out in new directions without a map,” says Paul McCartney in his written introduction for the new ‘White Album’ releases. This is the first time The BEATLES (‘White Album’) has been remixed and presented with additional demos and session recordings. The album’s sweeping new edition follows 2017’s universally acclaimed Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band Anniversary Edition releases. To create the new stereo and 5.1 surround audio mixes for ‘The White Album,’ Martin and Okell worked with an expert team of engineers and audio restoration specialists at Abbey Road Studios in London. All the new ‘White Album’ releases include Martin’s new stereo album mix, sourced directly from the original four-track and eight-track session tapes. Martin’s new mix is guided by the album’s original stereo mix produced by his father, George Martin. “In remixing ‘The White Album,’ we’ve tried to bring you as close as possible to The Beatles in the studio,” explains Giles Martin in his written introduction for the new edition. “We’ve peeled back the layers of the ‘Glass Onion’ with the hope of immersing old and new listeners into one of the most diverse and inspiring albums ever made.” Standard 2LP Vinyl: The BEATLES (‘White Album’) 2018 stereo mix 180-gram 2LP vinyl in gatefold sleeve with faithfully replicated original artwork The Beatles (The White Album) 2 LPs

      Refreshing and substantial

      While the producer (and son of George Martin) Giles Martin says he remixed this album to appeal to newer ears, this boomer finds the reissue a breath of fresh air. Discerning ears can detect he slight differences between the original and the new. In reducing he original's compression and sweetening some new takes, Martin has created something new from the familiar. The album is a delight, and at 180-grams, the LPs are as substantial as the music imprinted upon it. Also, including reprints of the original artwork just adds to the fun!

      Messing with the Mona Lisa

      For those who grew up listening to the "The Beatles" which is the true title of the White Album this sounds different and not always in a good way. For example Giles fixes the snare drum part which accidentally turned off the double tracking on the snare at the second half of he song. This didn't need fixing as it was one of the famous fortunate mistakes that The Beatles sometimes made in the studio., Yes, it's true that some may consider the remix sonically superior to the original. I prefer the original classic version. Thank You.

      Don’t Buy It

      Unlike other vinyl re-masters/re-issues (various albums) that I’ve collected and enjoyed, this one is very inconsistent with the original overall, with each track being tweaked up in a different way (over emphasizing bass, de emphasizing vocal, etc.) so as to be very unpleasant. The first disc has only two tracks on the second side that are fairly pleasing. The second disc is a bit better overall, but not great. I think somebody tried too hard to make this re-issue different for difference sake. I’ll stick to my CD until I can find a pristine copy of the original. No, I don’t recommend it.

      More than meets the eye.

      Although I'm not wild about every song on The Beatles White Album, it does contain some real gems. One that not many people are aware of is Long, Long, Long. If you aren't familiar with it, then you should definitely listen to it... listen closely... over and over... drink it in. It may become one of your favorite Beatles songs, like it did for me.
