News is out that the entire Beatles back catalogue has been remastered and will released on 9 September. Apparently, the sound has really been cleared up and the question is whether its worth getting the brand new sparkling versions
Most of my Beatles stuff is on vinyl, so I guess I could use an upgrade. The question is, which ones? The box set is going to be around the $200 mark, and I don’t really care for the early stuff, so I guess I’ll just be getting the crucial ones.
Well, the white album is a given, as is revolver. I don’t think I’ll bother with sgt pepper, at least at this stage
If I was to buy a third, which do you reckon, rubber soul, or abbey road? My instincts tell me abbey road, but there is some good stuff on rubber soul
More importantly, when is the kinks back catalogue going to get the same treatment?

Both are good but I'd get Rubber Soul. It always sounded to me like the companion album to Revolver, as a step into a wider universe of music. They are quite different records which I'd always thought was the difference between pot smoking (Rubber Soul) and LSD (Revolver).
