Release Date: November 22, 2024

Rolling Stone 500 Greatest Albums of All Time - Rated 263/500!

Using the original 1964 mono master, new lacquers have been cut all-analogue by Kevin Reeves at Nashville's East Iris Studios. By constantly referring to the original first pressing, the album is faithful to the original release while also enabling more musical information to be heard than was possible before. Featuring faithfully replicated artwork and a new four-panel insert with essay by American Beatles historian, Bruce Spizer. 180-gram audiophile pressing.

Mastering Notes

Album was cut for vinyl from the original master tape using a completely analog signal path and with constant reference to first generation pressings of the original album. It was made using a Studer A80 master recorder with analog preview & program paths, and a Neumann VMS70 cutting lathe originally installed in Capitol Studios in 1971. This specific all-analog cutting technique allows faithful representation of the full musical range and dynamics present on the original tape.
