Reviews"...The Beatles were clearly collective genius. Together they created a whole vastly greater than the sum of their parts....The fun of ANTHOLOGY 1 comes in watching their genius develop...", "...'Free As A Bird'...is really quite good...a lilting, innocently wistful, melancholy beauty of a tune that makes you feel just about ready to surrender any misgivings about the nature of its creation..."

Happy to have found a copy.
Delivery and presentation all good and discs play ok but one track jumps a little but given its age I suppose its to be expected.

The Beatles Anthology
Even though i'm a Beatle's fan, this collection is not really that good, the quality isn't good and as far as i'm concerned they should never have released this, so when it arrived i put it on......but not for long, lucky for me a friend of mine saw this collection, and asked if he could borrow it, i couldn't wait to give it to him, saying you can keep this if you like, sorry to be so blunt to all you Beatle fan's, but this collection was not for me.

Bought just for one track, This Boy.
It has one song, the B side of I wanna hold your hand, that is not available on any other cd, did have it on vinyl but it got nicked years ago.

Fascinating history
I just love hearing the Beatles talk and describe events in their amazing adventure to a zenith unparralleled in the Pop world. Hearing how the Music was written and re-worked is interesting, knowing that for every recording they were playing together, long before they went for the easy route of playing layer on layer (Sgt Pepper onwards). This disc set and Volume 2 are the best!
