Canzoni intramontabili

Recensito in Italia il 18 gennaio 2024

I Beatles ispirano sempre (non soltanto gli altri artisti) ma fanno bene anche a chi li ascolta. La loro musica non tradisce mai.

Amazon perfetto,come sempre!

Nulla da dire sulla consegna,sempre puntuale e perfetta...Non ci si può inoltre lamentare su una raccolta che ha fatto la "storia" della discografia,fino dalla sua uscita nel '76,ovvero la compilation "rossa",che insieme a quella "blu",sono conosciutissime..Direi che hanno fatto proprio un bel lavoro,i brani suonano veramente bene,l'unica "pecca", è il fatto che ancora una volta i due cd sono infilati nel cartoncino della custodia senza protezione,come nella precedente edizione,i brani aggiunti sono azzeccati,anche se in qualche caso,ne avrei scelti altri,secondo me più belli...(uno tra tutti:"And you bird can sing" da Revolver),ma è questione di gusti...
Per il resto consigliatissimo!!!

Sorprendente la qualità raggiunta nel remix

Sorprende il fatto che materiale risalente a 60 anni fa abbia questa qualità sonora. Ogni particolare è messo in evidenza dal nuovo mix. L'originale mantiene tutto il suo fascino e rimarrà sempre un importante riferimento per gli appassionati, ma se si vuole sentire bene tutti gli strumenti e i minimi particolari della registrazione, questo remix è davvero eccezionale.

New mixes, New experience

Recensito negli Stati Uniti il 14 aprile 2024

The Red and Blue albums were in my family since they first came out, so I was really excited about these, because they feature a bevy of all new remixes, and after listening to them I have remixed (ha ha) feelings.
Here is where the opinions come in.
For the most part the early material that has been demix-remixed (demixing is made possible by new technology pioneered by Peter Jackson which makes it possible to break down each individual component of the song for remixing) in full stereo sounds great. One of the exceptions is one of the bigger disappointments for me because I have been dreaming for decades of a true stereo version of She Loves You, and while this sounds perfectly fine I do not prefer it over the original mono mix. I can't even say that I prefer it over the stereo outfake done by Dr Ebbets sound systems about 20 years ago. It is now in true stereo, but it is not as crystal clear as some of the other early material, it sounds somehow muted and fuzzy.
By comparison I Saw Her Standing There sounds like it was recorded yesterday, and my all-time favorite song I Want to Hold Your Hand sounds celestial - there are many mixes of this song that have been done over the years and this one is to my ear the absolute best. I was ready to dislike A Hard Day's Night based on YouTube reviewers saying that the bongos were ridiculously loud, but to be honest I don't hear the bongos any more than I ever did in any mix - they've always been there.
Yesterday is absolutely beautiful - the string quartet surrounds Paul's vocal in a very natural way that was never possible to mix that way before the demixing technology (the old recordings of the earliest material especially had elements layered onto single tracks that were impossible to separate until now).
The tracks that have been remixed here from Rubber Soul sound absolutely amazing. The first song in this collection to really strike me as sounding unbelievably fresh and crystal clear was Norwegian Wood. I've heard that song a million times over the course of my life and I felt like I was listening to it the first time - every single detail was astonishingly immediate and vibrant.
The Revolver tracks sound equally amazing but I'm quite familiar with them having bought the deluxe version of that last year from which these mixes were pulled.
Overall - Well worth buying again for the new mixes!

Bons enregistrements et bon mixage.
Toute une époque à découvrir pour les jeunes.
D'ailleurs cette écoute est une bonne cure de jouvence.

Perfect apart from one glaring defect.

Recensito nel Regno Unito il 8 marzo 2024

Back in 1973 when I bought the original edition of the Red Album, I was always irritated by the fact that for the first time in Beatles history the fans were short changed. In the UK we were accustomed to seven tracks per side of new Beatles albums and it was a considerable disappointment to find only six tracks on two of the four sides of the otherwise wonderful "1962-1966" set. It was supposedly a double album but it was so short that in later years it could have been issued on CD as a single disc (and should have been!)

The new edition at least corrects that flaw by including tracks which should never have been omitted in the first place and the remixes are superb.

Nonetheless, it is horribly flawed by the inexcusable omission of the outstanding track "Rain" (which was the B-side of the Paperback Writer single).

"Rain" was a tour de force and no less an authority than Ringo Starr declared that it captured the best drumming of his entire Beatles career. More than any other track apart from "Twist And Shout" (which should never have been absent from the original release), "Rain" is one of the greatest highlights of the pre-Pepper Beatles development and it has been disgracefully overlooked for decades in various Beatles collections and compilation albums. It truly belongs in this set and its absence is unacceptable.

Nevertheless, the new edition is certainly a significant improvement on my older edition of the "Red Album". If you're of the generation who cannot automatically fill in the blank in the phrase, "John, Paul, George and ------" I don't know whether or not this album will mean anything to you but for those of us who have been familiar with these seminal recordings for five or six decades, this CD release is almost perfectly satisfying and an absolute joy to hear.

I envy those who are about to discover these tracks for the first time in their lives.
