Knowing John wrote Yellow Submarine was a revelation for me, and hearing him sing it was mindblowing too.

I was so taken aback by the yellow submarine demo that I got emotional. I never knew this existed until this set. Absolutely beautiful

The Beatles have left an ultimate legacy that nobody can easily take away from them. Their influence on music is something that is thoroughly impressive in all aspects. Great review. We hope to see more content like this.

Slight correction: The Mono Mix has no de-mixing applied to it. It’s just a straight cut from the master tapes. Oh, and George wasn't writing about government corruption, more just that he was annoyed about the high tax rate (I got a little ahead of myself there).

Hail, fellow Beatles geeks!

I continue to be shocked that the Beatles Anthology documentary hasn't been cleaned up and re-released on Disney+ or other streaming service.

This remix is an absolute triumph. My issue with the anniversary remixes of recent years is that the post-Pepper albums have largely had good original stereo mixes, so there hasn’t been a need to massively change them, resulting in minimal changes that make them, for me, inessential. Revolver is one of the albums that truly benefits from opening up the soundscape and turning away from the hard panning of the original. Credit has to go to Peter Jackson for developing this technology and to Giles for utilising it so effectively. Will be interesting to see how far this technology develops and whether they’ll be able to remix the early albums in a similar way.

For No One is one of my favorite Paul songs and just hearing this new refined version made me emotional.

Gotta love the “Love” appreciation. It’s such a good remix album

Revolver is easily my favorite Beatles Album. Rubber Soul was them dipping their toe on becoming a studio band, but Revolver was just perfection!

I honestly got tears in my eyes hearing the harmonies during the solo on that And Your Bird Can Sing outtake - hearing John, Paul, and George give an unheard vocal performance was like having a few old friends back.

🎶"Turn off your mind relax and float down stream..."🎶 What a phenomenal a finale for that album!!!!!

John writing part of Yellow submarine is a revelation. Paul never mentioned that.

Always thought She Said She Said was some of the Beatles most sublime guitar work, and for 45 years I've been trying to sort out which guitar did what on this song and now I can hear it clearly! Also I love the very trippy (and appropriate) mix of Tomorrow Never Knows. I've been so psyched for today, I mean in High School I even wrote a poem about how much I love this album.

As to the pied piper like appeal of Yellow Submarine to kids: the other day I played and sang it for my two year old granddaughter. She had never heard it before and I played it just one time through. Her attention was fixed while I sang it and several hours later my daughter (her mother) heard her singing the chorus over and and over. Fortunately my daughter recorded some of it on her phone and texted me a copy. I simply texted back, "The Power of the Beatles".

Giles Martin is every bit the musical genius his father was. This latest remix reworks well-known tracks in a way that enhances the depth of the music without changing the fundamental nature of it. He shows amazing respect for the source material, and reveals nuances previously obscured due to the limits of the technology available when the record was made. It is an astonishing achievement. Fingers crossed that we get Rubber Soul in the future

It sounds very different from the original album, but in the most amazing way. A gift to all Beatles fans.

I went to the Beatles Love show when I was 10 in Las Vegas in 2006. Beautiful show that's still happening to this day! My Mom bought the CD and gave it to me. It was the first Beatles album I owned and it completely changed my life!

Great point about Rain. Before listening to this I didn't know that Rain was slowed down, the single just sounded so natural to me that it was such a whiplash to hear it played fast. Another fantastic video

My favourite album of theirs. It's the most personal and touching.

This is my favorite album!!! Stupid school got in the way of me listening to it in one sitting, but I listened as much as possible during class and eventually finished. I’ve been hoping for you to post this and I’m so happy you did!! You always have such great takes on everything about the Beatles. I’m just so grateful that this album exists and that I, being gen z, could be patiently waiting for a Beatles album to be released. This album just blew me away.

I’m just glad this album got the treatment it deserved! It sounds so fresh

Hearing the here there and everywhere opening harmonies in a new mono remix was absolute bliss

Elliot, once again you've said what I'm basically thinking... if I actually had the brain and verbal capacity to do so. LOL I heard YS worktape 1 a few months back at work but when I finally got to delve into the set today and heard worktape 2 I literally started to cry. Such an eye (ear?) opening, mind blowing experience! I can't wait for Giles to keep working his way backwards through the catalog to see what other gems there will be.

the Beatles are like the Shakespeare of popular music. Just as Shakespeare has a corpus of work that is the high point of literary genius, that has influenced every writer since, the Beatles produced in a decade an explosion of musical art unlike anything, that influenced everything, the only way it can be explained is by the mystery of human genius that only arises rarely. A collective genius. They will last forever.

My best friend and I are huge Beatles fans. We promised each other we wouldn’t listen to the album until we hung out together, and today we both listened to it together. Blew our minds. My favorite, if I had to pick one, is the new Paperback Writer mix. Sounds like an entirely new song. And I just love the demo of John and Paul working on Yellow Submarine. This is the best remix/remaster so far 💛

This was the first album I heard on tape that my dad had back in the early 2000s. We played that tape to death. Then when in 2009 onward the remastered albums started coming out and it was Beatlemania all over again. I was blown away. Also my dad is a great artist and he drew the album cover on a piece of paper to put in a cassette cover it was amazing. So many memories ❤ I love all the albums but this one is special to me.

Dude the mix for no one is so amazing

The thing that surprised me most was the yawning on "I'm only sleeping"

This is now the version of Revolver - one of my favorite albums ever - that I will listen to from now on. It's amazing, top to bottom. Simply beautiful work, the ultimate fusion of art and new technology.

I’ll be honest. I’m 22 from England and have been a Beatles fan for a few years now, it’s hard to talk to people my age about their music. Or even find any coverage on their work. So I have to say, your Beatles content is some of my favourite on KZfaq. Keep up the good work Elliot. Also I want a George Harrison album ranking !

Another great video my Brutha

Totally agree with you on everything. I listened to the whole thing between yesterday and today (no pun intended) and I was thrilled with how the new mixes sounded and with all the amazing demos and outtakes. The guitar solo in Tomorrow Never Knows shifting from one ear to the other, the echo in the Paperback Writer mono mix, the hidden organ in She Said She Said, and that freaking Yellow Submarine Songwriting Work Tape… I loved all of the 63 tracks, hats off to Giles Martin and his team for this astounding work. Looking forward to the Rubber Soul Super Deluxe Edition.

The final Got to Get You Into My Life with the horns will always be my favorite but hearing the second version with the fuzzy guitar was pretty awesome.

I wondered whether you were gonna do one of these videos for Revolver, but I didn't realise you'd do it on the SAME DAY as release. Legend.

My two favorites are Revolver and Rubber Soul. I did listen to "Here. There and Everywhere " and becase of that, I'l be getting another Revolver album. Very happy that Peter and Giles got this going. Thank you.

yessss i've been waiting for this one!!!!

This remix got me back into the Beatles’ music with a new appreciation and love for them and their music. Tomorrow never knows especially sounds amazing

I noticed something in For No One that I never heard in the mono mix. There are 2 pianos In the verse they are playing the same thing. The chorus is where they change, the one you can usually hear is playing an arpeggio, but the other one is playing chords the minor chords. And I love it. It sounds like the narrator is coming to the crushing realization that she really doesn’t need him and doesn’t love him anymore. It makes it so much more emotional for me.

rain take 5 was my absolute favourite track from the new release!! my jaw literally dropped... hell of a rhythm section

50 years and we are still listening to The Beatles on Apple

The Beatles being at the edge of technology again gave me a big smile

This was one of the best box sets they’ve released and partly due to the fact it reveals so much mythology around the making of this album. That banter before Eleanor Rigby is one of the first times we hear other musicians other than The Beatles working on one of their songs, funny to hear their ideas and opinions. Also, the She Said She Said outtake seemed rather crucial as well because it’s been argued that Paul McCartney wasn’t available to play bass on it l so George did, but when I hear them talking in the beginning, it sounds like 4 distinct voices? I know it’s a rehearsal take but it sounds close to the final! Also I’m glad the remix of Yellow Submarine added back “a life of ease!” I know stereo wasn’t the biggest deal in 66, but come on, it’s too much fun to omit altogether. Always love your videos! The flame for the Beatles remains eternal

I always love your Beatles videos - so insightful, vital and revelatory. The artistry of the Beatles obviously demands revisiting and reassessment and your analysis and passion are an essential go-to for every serious Beatles fan. Your explanation of the technical aspects are brilliant and seamlessly woven into your reviews - so helpful for those of us without the minutiae knowledge of these elements of the Beatles' creativity and mold-breaking inventiveness.

Elliot is literally my favorite youtuber. Top tier videos. And it's always so feel good

Great video as always!

I think the new package is wonderful. Anything that gets me to hear them in a new way, and uncovers their working methods, is welcome and delightful. Your review is spot on to me.

Congratulations on a brilliant channel with such magical insights. Thank you!

Fascinating. Beautifully presented.

It’s so nice to hear a stereo version of this album that’s actually listenable

Elliot, I'm so glad that you gave this a positive review. There's so many videos that people have made that are bitching about the smallest things that drive me nuts. One person is bitching about they can't hear the tambourine in taxman, I mean please. I've listened to taxman numerous times on headphones and you can hear the tambourine and you can hear the cowbell. I'm expecting my boxset at any minute now so I can't wait to get it and put my headphones on and enjoy each track and not complain about this that and the other.

Spectacular video!! Congratulations Elliott!!!

Great video as always Elliot. Some great finds on this edition for sure. Thanks for tuning me in.

Loved your commentary and insights on this new Revolver remix. I love this new package as well and your top 10 favorite demo and studio banter bits. Those are so delightful and insightful.( Oh that rhymes ). Thanks.

Great review--I loved hearing your impressions on this! I have to check it out now.

Love your channel. Keep up the great work!

Oh boy, the new mixes! Are absolutely amazing :3

Wow, I gotta admit I mostly dismissed ignored this whole re-release thinking the outtakes/demos are gonna just be stuff we've known for decades now. But it sounds like there's plenty here that's completely new that no "beatlegs" ever got their hands on. This sounds amazing! It's like discovering an alternate universe where even more early versions of your favorite songs exist, and you never knew haha. I'm just so used to never getting anything new from the archives that it's pretty trippy hearing this stuff. Definitely will check it out.

Revolver 2022 sounds like a breath of fresh air. The Mono mix on CD again is a nice bonus. I just wish it was on Blu-Ray.

I love it! Exactly what I was hoping for and more!

Oh, Elliot Roberts just dropped a new video, I may now stop everything I'm doing and watch

So glad you made this video I’ve been celebrating revolver like crazy

Me encantó tu reseña de Revolver, tienes un nuevo suscriptor. Sigue con tu trabajo.

Loved this review!! One of my favourite moments from the sessions take is during the Eleanor Rigby speech where, twoards the end of the tracks, one of the violinist's plays the opening bars of the Israeli national anthem "Hatikva" (The Hope), and it made me do a double take upon hearing that. Such a cool captured moment in time.

Thanks, always appreciate your videos and insights.

Awesome video Elliot! I agree that I typically listen to the Beatles 2009 remastered versions (or my vinyl), but I enjoy changing it up now and then with the remixes if I want a new sound! This Revolver release is absolutely mind blowing - Take 5 of Rain blew my socks off, with Ringo absolutely hammering the drums and Paul blistering away on bass. The songwriting tapes for Yellow Submarine made me feel like I was transported into a room with Paul and John writing the new tune, even though I've known and loved it for years. So great. Love the great videos!

Thank you very much for making this video.

Most mind-blowing moment: Hearing RAIN at actual speed. All of them rocking their asses off.

I love your passion for them!

I,ve just received my Deluxe cd today for my dad's Christmas.i,m really happy that Giles Martin has done the new stereo mix.

i love your channel man

Great description and analysis. Congrats.

Personally, I don’t have any favorite Beatles anything. I truly love it all for what it is. But I will admit, I do play “Revolver” more often than anything else. It’s SO phenomenal. Loved hearing John’s earliest efforts on “Yellow Submarine”. Very compelling. An uncovered gem. Great segment mate!

Thank you Elliot for all your work so passionate made and give. Sorry for my English , but I'm from Chile. Though that doesn't stop me from enjoy what you do for all of us: Beatles Worldwide fans !!! All the best from me to you...

I think "she said she said" was my biggest surprise because of everything you can hear now that you couldn't before, so props to Giles for his work. Also, the 2009 mono mixes were my introduction to 90% of Beatles music and I'm surprised anytime I hear anything different from before revolver cuz I don't listen to it all that much in streaming

Paul and John’s work tape of Yellow Submarine sounds a lot like a folky campfire song, and I dig that vibe.

Great review, can't wait for your Beatles ranking :)

I just got a chance to listen. Wow! These new mixes are amazing!

I absolutely love that the son of the 5th Beatle is the genuis who made these beautiful mixes.

For all the treats the bonus sessions give us, I'm especially pleased to hear the "Yellow Submarine" spoken intro we got on the Real Love CD single!

The first version of And Your Bird Can Sing (and the giggling in take 2) is absolutely mesmerizing to me along with the new mix of Tomorrow Never Knows and the demo of Yellow Submarine, i loved this release and im so excited for Giles to eventually get to Rubber Soul, i love this band so much

Thoroughly enjoyed this

I like that I can finally hear the yawn on I’m Only Sleeping. It made me jump out my chair when I finally heard it!

what a time to be a beatles fan!! so grateful for these new mixes

Thank you for this video - I'm more interested to check it out now

Elliot, I really enjoyed the video. You come across as being knowledgeable and not as goofy as some out there. So I subscribed. See ya later... love and (light)

Excellent, I was hoping you’d do a video on this!

I don't even listen to the Beetle's and I still watch your videos about them. Great work as always!

Listened to it this morning... I just love it!

HELL YES Revolver!! My favorite Beatles album and a big favorite overall, and the new mix sounds great.

George Harrison is way more of a force than was ever hinted at. He is on bass for "Good Day Sunshine". He sketched out the bass part on guitar for "I'm Only Sleeping". This also vindicated him on "Love You To", he is playing the sitar parts there. And I could go on and on. His guitar playing on this is just amazing. Which I was never able to hear at this clarity before. Also, I was shocked to learn that it is Paul on lead guitar for "Rain" instead of George. Always swore it was him. This along with the beat he came up with for "Tomorrow Never Knows", playing tambura on "Love You To", his Indian styled vocal melisma in the fade of "I Want To Tell You" and that ripping raga rock solo in "Taxman". Shows that Paul was allied with George in bringing Indian sounds to the band. It has been mind blowing listening to all this honestly! (Also that Paul was indeed on bass for "She Said She Said". You can hear him clear as day on the take 15 rehearsal in the sessions portion. Same line he plays in the final. So he didn't walk out leaving George to play it. All four played their usual instruments in a very charging live take by the sounds of it.)

gosh, Elliot... I do not often go to Beatles' new release reviews, because I think of knowing enough of and about their music, and: how long and often do you want to revisit their already impeccable crown-jewels of 20th century contemporary music - they are the best, and only jerks would deny it, just to get some fleeting attention, but - I know how critical you are, even despite your massive admiration (or even 'because of') and wouldn't just fall for every new approach to their material... if I wanna hear something new about my all-time fabs, you're the number 1 to consult, and you managed again to really interest me in this new mix of Revolver... they were simply the best, and you are the best in following their footsteps into the present and report about your findings... big, biiig thanks 2U xx

Haven't listened to the deluxe version yet, but super hyped after watching this. Probably my favourite Beatles album, next to Abbey Road, and even just listening to the snippets in this vid, it's incredible how rejuvenated it all sounds. Also excited to hear what "Rain" sounds like, because it's brilliant and also one of my dad's favourite Beatles songs. lol.

Thanks for this great review!. I've often wished that the earlier Beatles recordings sounded as good as Abbey Road and I'm so thrilled that it's finally happening. These remixes are amazing, as far as I'm concerned, and I love the additional tracks giving more insight into how the final songs came to be and their creative process.

Totally agree with you about The Beatles Renew On The Revolver LP! Can’t wait to have it. Long live the Beatles music!! 👍👍😎

I'm not sure if anyone else had pointed this out in the comments, but you forgot one little thing when talking about the remixes. We all know how Yellow Submarine normally starts cold, with Ringo singing "In the town where I was born." In the new remix a G guitar chord plays along with Ringo, as he sings "in the" and from the word town onward, with the rest of the song basically the same, even with the rebalancing. It's pretty obvious if you listen to past mixes of the song and then, compare that to both the stereo and mono mixes, on this new super deluxe version. By the way, I hope you get to 100,000 subscribers soon.

I enjoyed this probably more than all your previous vids, Elliot. interestingly, my father who would have been 101 years old if he hadn't died at age 50, loved the early Beatles (he demurred once Sgt. Pepper's came to pass) and his favourite song was, 'Here There and Everywhere'. Nice to know it's one of your's too.

"you can hear things like the acoustic guitar in For No One" ...the WHAT???? this has to be a must listen now.

I cannot tell you how much I appreciate your videos, Elliot. You are my favorite music reviewer on the internet. I enjoy your personality and your perspective is very well articulated, I relate to a lot of your opinions. I am so weirdly excited for when you review all of George Harrison's albums. He was always my favorite Beatle, and imo, one of the most underrated and under-appreciated musicians in history during his time. His music has had such a profound and permanent effect on my life. Probably more than the Beatles. But of course, they often go hand in hand. Absolutely cannot wait to hear your thoughts on his career. As well as all your other reviews! Love you man

Lovely vibe and exciting- ta
